Dear friends
Today we celebrate our special anniversary
Posetteforever is 6 years old
So Tormie is going to write some words in his spaghetti-english ( )
Well, in 6 years everything has changed around us and the site has changed with it.
I created it in order to have a place where people could talk and show their art without being pushed by the commercial side of our hobby, I mean, everywhere I was into, it was all based on the store and the marketplace and how good was the new 3d human model that was kicked out on an almost monthly basis, and all of this costed a lot of money.
And everywhere, new sites came out like Posetteforever did, no stores and no banners, but then, little by little, every time you could see that ads time began soon after, the excuse is always the same: the site costs a lot of money, it is for helping paying the bills etc.
Well, obvioulsy it is only a very big lie . I discovered that owning a site is cheap and that everyone can afford it, even a large one, with a normal job like mine (if you don't know it, I'm a bus driver ) the rest are only money gained that jumps in your pockets.
And, above all, still now, after 6 years since our opening, there is not a really new technology for 3d human figures: all the new dazzling Victoriae and Michaels and the rest are made in the same way that they were done 10 years ago, they only added more polygons and they made textures that are non compatible with the previous versions, so you've to throw in the trash bin the old ones that you purchased and you're pushed to buy the new ones, or you're out of the clan.
I still use Posette for my pictures, with a little work she doesn't look so bad and everyone can do it, we've an album that demonstrate it, and if you look at it you can see pictures that are very unusual and beautiful, no one else has an album like our one
People come and go, some friends have left us some other ones came in and enjoyed the party . There is something special in this place: sometimes I feel depressed, I see no people around and I start thinking that it was all a waste of time, but then I start thinking at my life without this little place to check every day and simply, I can't live without it , it is a part of my life .
Here I found a lot of true friends that are living all around the world, and I learnt that they are like me, with problems that are maybe bigger than mines . Sometimes, having met in this place meant for someone to have found a solution to a problem, simply talking to someone else, and this is one of the reasons why the site deserves to live forever
So, coming back on topic ( ok, ok, I know it )
As usual we'll open a special category in the album , the theme this year and as usual, is the number "6" and all about our anniversary
there will be also special GIFTS , Kenny is working hard for a BIG ONE
My friends, thank you for being the heart of Posetteforever , I can only promise to do all that I can do to keep the site alive and kicking for the years to come !!
Long Life Posetteforever !
Tormie
