also while I’m here & posting things... an overdue explanation:

i lost my hard drive a few months ago. i had the foresight to slap my editing programs on a usb stick but all my sailor moon files--episode rips, psds, wips, etc.--all of that stuff doesn’t exist now. i’m stuck re-downloading & recreating from memory. to top it off, i lost my other sata cables on my psu (they snapped; electrical tape won’t fix anything with how they broke & i honestly don’t know if it’s possible to replace them) so i can’t even use my dvds now to make gifs of the openings.

i can’t say with any certainty how often i’ll post now or if i’ll ever resurrect my liveblog (i still hate the ☆lights), but thank you all for sticking around ♥

#the other half of this is... kpop. i'm devoting too much of my time to kpop.#someone remind me of the perils of a parasocial relationship & tell me that giffing anime is 2000% easier than kpop#shut up rsd

so i never thought i’d have to say this but here we go:

please don’t ask me to promote your stuff (online shop, music, etc.). i realize anime aesthetic is a thing, people can merge their interests into their art and everything else, but the last time i tried to promote something, nothing came of it.

i made this blog 3 years ago on a whim because i love sailor moon so much and said, ‘i should make a whole sideblog for it.’ so i did, and in that time i managed to gain some 1,900+ followers (which i never expected in the first place, holy cow). from what i’ve seen of other blogs celebrating follower counts, this isn’t that big of a number, so if you were hoping to reach a wider audience, sorry but i’m not the blog for you.

this blog started out as me posting screencaps and liveblogging episodes and grew into me learning how to make gifs. that one gif that managed to go viral?

the first gif i ever made and yes i got incredibly lucky because this site has such a horrible system now (i.e. a post will be 100% in the tagging system but can manage to never show up in the search index which is really dumb considering tumblr puts more emphasis into the search feature now, but that didn’t exist 3 years ago). 

i really don’t intend to come off as mean, but i hope the point i’m making is that you can make a post that goes out of a fandom and into the larger userbase (that later gets reposted without credit to every other site), but still be relatively small. the fact that i made something that holds 100k+ notes doesn’t mean i have those same people looking at my blog. my average note count is only 600 and it’s rare to see anything of mine break 1,000 notes. if people think my blog is more popular because of one lucky gif, it’s really not. 

so to anyone reading this that was hoping to get a promo for their work, good luck but this is really not a good site for exposure and neither is my blog.

#i feel bad for making this post b/c i'm calling attention to ppl but not linking to them so it feels backhanded jdkfldkfjbnj#i'm really sorry but the bulk of my followers are literally here b/c they either a) like sailor moon or b) really liked that 1 gif i made#and my followers really don't interact like they used to and i really don't use this blog like i used to#tl;dr i'm not a good blog to get promos from
