I'd like to say that I will no longer be posting images on Caedes, and have removed all from my gallery. This is not because of any of the recent occurances.. Mainly it is because I am going to try and make a business of selling my images as posters, etc, and can no longer have them available for public use.. since maybe people will know my images and perhaps make their own things with them for a cheaper price than I will sell them.
I would also like to give out many thanks to all who have supported me and my art through the last year and a half. When I first came here, my skills were not even close to what I have now, and without this site as a "tool", it certainly would have stayed that way. The site got me interested in making art, something I never really bothered with in the past, and if I do end up making any money, this site and its members would be the main reason.
I'm posting this because I feel that it would be wrong not to explain why I had removed my images, and like I said, it is not at all because of the recent problems here. I will continue frequent the site and try to offer good criticism, so don't bid me farewell.
Let me be the first to say how much I'll miss your input and visual creativity that has added so much to this site. I wish you all the best, Andy, and in my own selfish way hope you'll pay us a visit and perhaps give us at least one or two of your new works to be enjoyed if only briefly.
Congratulations Andy. To see one of our members who decides to become professional is a success for caedes.net. Good luck! We'll miss you, certainly.
Don't hesitate to come back and to give your comments on the future images. Sure there will be new talented members which need your advices. Thanks for your message :-)
Stop trying to figure out who's talented and who's not, and just take a shot at it, okay? Do some art. Tell anybody who asks that I said it was all right.

Im so glad that I saved some of your wonderful images...I will for sure miss you...I always look for your wonderful creations, and you know that I learned a lot from you. But, even tho I sit with a bit of sadness to see you go, I also know how important it is to move forward. Im in that spot in some ways also. I know you will do great with your many awesome works of art. I wish you all the best of things....verena
I guess this has been a long time coming, as I've always been a fan of your work. I wish I had what it took to make a living out of art but anyone with as much talent as you won't even have to try to succeed. Good luck!
P.S. You'll have to change your Caedes signature now, it's more like pure emptiness :)

Trust nobody in being self employed. Protect your work and I hope you prosper. Believe and trust your own abilities as you obviously have alot. look after yourself and that will see you through all. Buisness is a crappy good & luck best wishes. NJ (Nick).
There is no doubt you will succeed. Still, the best of luck to you. Give us your website where you will be selling your images. We can still advertise for you. :)
