Hello guys.

I dunno if there's some of you still in here, but if there is some mad people still alive, it's wonderful!

I had to leave deviantart for some reasons (time, health, etc) and I still can't afford to feed a group in here...

SO, I fixed the group, by now ALL contributors can manage the group! Of course, if some of you want to become a co-founder, he/she will have full access. Let me know if you're interested.

I hope the group won't disappear without me, and I hope you still have fun with making some weird stuff!

Sincerely,
Meltys

Hiya Darlings,

Has anyone heard from ~Meltys-stock lately? Her profile hasn't shown any new activity since about November of 2011 and she is the only one with any sort of controls for the group. The contributors can't access the admin controls to help keep the group running smoothly. There are a few things that need to be touched up in the group to help the process and keep the group from becoming a ghost ship. The stats on her art account say that she hasn't been on in 11 weeks there, which was April. I wanted to check with the other members of this group to see if you have heard anything.

Thanks!

- Cheryl

It's the Day of the skirt in Belgium today!

What are you wearing?

Have a nice day folks!

Ill for 4 weeks, no internet for days, and a possible tuberculosis contamination at work.... I didn't have the time to be here with all this, and I'm really sorry. I must admit the idea to have a dangerous desease didn't help me to be zen and happy...
I have to pass a test in 2 weeks to know if I'm ill or not - wish me luck!! Oo'

All this makes me wonder about the group. I don't want it to die, the unusual is important on deviantart, and I wish it to have an important place. I know I'll be absent in the future, for one day, one week, who knows?

So, I wanted to know what's your feeling about all this. Do you think this group is important? Why yes or not? What do we have to do to promote the group and make it live? Is someone here ready to help me to rules the group?

Don't be shy and say what you think!
