"Astounding Stallion - Pegasus"
| I should add in regards to this work, the name of the person, who was the sole inspiration and so, responsible for this work coming to fruition, as well as my Golden Promise Pegasus, as he also was for so many of my other works. I wanted to create a Pegasus that would 'knock his socks off'... lol ...and this intention was obviously fulfilled, when he saw it (in it's pre-finished state) and made the comment, "Astounding". Hence the title. Unfortunately, the person who has been so inspirational, so influential in regards to my creativity, is the very same person who is now denying me access to my work, along with slandering my name. It is both difficult and heart wrenching to have to conclude that a person who is so capable of greatness, harbours such a tremendous amount of value within himself, but yet, chooses to be the exact opposite. THIS is tragic! Initially, this piece was meant for its home to be on elftown.eu . The links displayed in this work were supposed to be: www.artsieladi the situation as it is, the initial intended home had to be changed and as long as the situation remains as it is currently, I strictly prohibit this piece to be uploaded to ANY heddate site/server. In fact, I no longer upload ANY of my artworks to ANY heddate site/server for the very simple reason, I can no longer condone, support, promote, advocate for, etc., a person and/or their sites, when they are deliberately, with malice, trying to destroy and defame me and are denying me access to my own work in the process as well. If I were to trust him again and upload my work to his site, THIS would make me look stupid, which I am not. To accuse "me" of being a liar, when he KNOWS full well I am NOT, but KNOWS he, himself, is lying and covering up the truth, THIS speaks volumes about him and what type of person he prefers to project himself as. To accuse "me" of making up "conspiracy theories", when I have the facts and then threatens me to shut my mouth, when I bring some of the factual information out, to prove that I'm neither lying or making up conspiracy theories, THIS warrants HIS motives to be called to question at the very least. ..And those who don't question, but rather, go along with this agenda, are just as guilty as he is. To think that "I" did so much for him and his sites, both on and off of them, especially Elftown and Elf12, and then to be treated the way I am and have been, is downright disgustingly sickening. No one in their right mind kicks to the curb a per- son who's as devoted and dedicated as I was. I used "my" name all across the Internet to help promote and increase awareness about, especially Elftown. In fact, he's still reaping the benefits from my name and online presence, as he slan- ders it! This is pretty damn low. So, he reaps the benefits from my name, but in turn is slandering it and stealing my work! What kind of person would ever do such a despicable thing!? I joined many, many websites for the sole purpose to get a link or links posted back to Elftown. In fact, I joined Facebook to support and help promote Elftown. I purchased the domain of Artsieladie.co and attention to/for Elftown. I also purchased the domain of Elftown.org to use the site to bring more attention to/for Elftown. I was even going to invite some Elftown members to Elftown.org to help with this endeavor and I even thought that possibly at some point, it could have been an extension of Elftown.com, when Elftown became a much more prominent site on the 'Net, to help make Elftown an even bigger and more prominent website on the Web, because I never limited my visions for Elftown. In fact, I dreamed of Elftown becoming "thee place to be" on the Internet and with his capabilities, I never doubted for a min- ute of THIS being possible. But THIS is the kind of faith and belief I had both in him AND his site(s), particularly Elftown. ..And to go along with this Elftown.com/El I started a WetPaint site, "Elftown Lovers" and a blog for the same reason, to promote Elftown, as I also started a Twitter account, again, for the same reason. ..And this was when I knew very little about networking and its benefits. I still am in the process of learning how it all works, but I do think about how much more I could be doing for Elftown now, because of my increased presence online and all the connections and contacts I've made. ..And the beauty about networking is, if you place a link to a site, image, whatnot, in one place, then it automatically gets spread around through/on all the accounts/sites you have connected to where you placed it. ..And then with the hashtag feature being used on Twitter and now other sites, too, like Facebook, this is another tool that can be used to bring more attention to Elftown, for example. Let's just say, for example, and to explain what I could be doing IF I was still active on Elftown. I could share/post images and wiki-pages on Pinterest. Then whatever I did on Pinterest, would be sent to Facebook AND to Twitter. Once on Twitter, it would also be displayed on all my other accounts I have connected, such as Tumblr, WordPress, Facebook timeline, Facebook page, etc.. I could share/post an Elftown link or links daily on my Facebook timeline, where there's a large audience and so, many connections, which would increase attention and awareness about Elftown AND once on my Facebook timeline, it then goes automatically to Twitter. If I were to reactivate the blog for Elftown, it would then be connected to at least Twitter, which would then ultimately send whatever I post on it to Facebook and all the other accounts connected to Twitter. I just joined a new site which is about more online networking, which I hope to make many more connections through. On Google+, the number of people joining my circles is growing steadily. Therefore, here's another avenue to increase awareness. BUT... I can't do ANY of these things because I can NOT support or promote a person or anything pertaining to that person, who is hellbent on maliciously trying to destroy my name and reputation and who is stealing my work. So, he gets to carry on with his agenda sure enough, but he isn't doing so without cost to himself. Apparently, he thinks it's better to cut off his nose to spite his face, which isn't an intelligent strategy no matter which angle it's viewed from. So rather than acting maturely, responsibly, and intelligently, he decides to allow his ego fed, stubborn pride to supersede and intercept his smarts. Instead of communicating with me, to work things out, and so I wouldn't have to feel forced into defend- ing myself, which involves telling the truth, backed up with data showing I am, which makes him look rather bad, he'd much rather keep this dragging on, like a child would, because a child doesn't differentiate between good and bad attention. A child will accept any type of attention, as long as it's attention. I have offered to him a number of times a willingness to work things out "with him" and in a way that would be "mutually ben- eficial" for us both. But I guess he must like all of the negative attention, instead of the positive attention he could just as well be benefiting from. To think I once admired him for his intelligence. I guess I was wrong to think this. It's just so difficult to accept that a person I once SO admired, respected, and looked up to, and who has SO inspired me, could turn out to be such a mean, cruel, and heartless individual. ..And all those who I considered to be friends, joined in against me, serving the crusade of a jealous individual to get rid of me from the site, which I now have confirmation of as of about two and a half years ago. ..And yet, there are people that think I should just treat this whole mess like it's no big deal, when if it were happening to ANY of them, they wouldn't be quiet about it. People who expect another or others to do what they would never do themselves, are pretty damn shallow and self absorbed. :'( Oh... just in case he decides to deny the "astounding" comment of his, like he did with the little, red heart in my badge slot?
