ok, so my dA subscription was up sometime in april and i didn't notice it for like a month, which tells you how good the unpaid site has gotten. i've been trying to save money for con and so haven't renewed it. honestly, the only thing bugging me, other than the stupid ads, is that there seem to be a lot of "no deviations/messges" when it tells me i have like 50 some. or when i go to the next page on the deviations, it goes to my messages, or visa versa. so yeah, i've decided it annoys me enough to upgrade when i get back from con ... probably the same time i go to post con pictures!!
and in case you can't tell by the use of multiple !s
