Very nice wood working. Good consistency with the pieces you used for the detailing on the top of the building.


This would be a lovely addition to our 'artisan crafts' in the 'woodworking' category and if this is anything to go by, I am sure the finished product will be feature worthy, more than. Very nice. I can tell you worked at your craft.

Thank you so much I just submitted it for approval. So may submissions get declined & expired awaiting approval so I'll see if this time it makes it

I saw and accepted. :)


My apologies if you have been, at some point, jilted by such things. Currently I am the only one performing admin duties. I tried to reach out to other co founders but so far no response. Our actual founder hasn't been around for ten years or more so it wasn't a surprise when he didn't either.


I was out with cancer and having to juggle life and family while dealing with cancer so I wasn't around when most of the people disappeared who used to be active(mostly people have ignored the 'forum' type area in the back end for way longer than that- notices mostly didn't change anyway and I think most people didn't have the energy to deal with it, myself included), but I think before covid we had at least one or two other people going through because I'd still get notice things were accepted that I hadn't accepted or denied. We lost a lot of people, both members and people on the back end I think, during covid. Submissions went way down. While it makes it a lot easier to keep up with by myself, it is also sad and I hope to see the group take off again. It is still fairly active, just it used to be crazy amounts of submissions. Like fifty pages wouldn't have been unusual for a single day. That's not what it is like anymore. I hope to see the day it is so again though, even if I obviously couldn't handle that by myself.


I have a notice up on the group, if you are interested in helping. We need admins very desperately. Admins are not expected to police comments or anything like that(although we would ask that admins do act respectfully and set some sort of example in that end) and would just need to help look over things to make sure they fit the rules of the group and aren't 'ai generated' or 'ai generated then edited slightly'. I have a note in the back noting one specific artist who isn't labeling there ai art, so was at first missed, is not to be accepted unless we can verify she isn't using ai art, so cursory to check that is necessary but most of the time nothing new is posted back there. That particular artist did not respond to inquiries so I assume they are either a bot, do not speak english, did not see it, or are dodging answering. Other than that it would be making sure things are submitted to the correct category. I don't have any expectations for how often minus 'at least once a week' because any help is appreciated at this point and even 'at least once a week'. It's not heavy expectations. Just 'hey please do what you can when you have the time to do so'. Even five minutes can help a lot.


You have some fantastic work and whether or not you decide to accept to become an admin, I wish you the very best.
