Now see, this is why I love you guys so much. Even when I make a vid that's for another ship/fandom, I still get wonderful feedback 
As any "artist" (and I use that term loosely), I appreciate opinions on what I do...it makes me know that people are actually watching my vids and/or viewing my wallpapers!
That was always the frustrating thing when I made vids for other ships or shows....I knew people were downloading my vids or saving my wallpapers, but nobody made a noise about either, which suggested one of two things to me: A) My vid/wallpaper was horrible and there was nothing good to say about it, B) My efforts weren't appreciated.
I mean, I'm not saying it takes me years to make these things, or that I am making some sort of great masterpiece, but sometimes I make vids and don't recieve a single comment. I'll tell you what, that can really destroy your morale, and keep you from venturing down that road again. Hence, why I stopped making SGA and BSG vids and now focus almost exclusively on DV. On YT, I had more comments in one day for some of my DV vids than I did in 6 months for others (ones with larger hit counts, mind you).
So, to summarize, you guys are AMAZING....and are the reason why I keep making these vids It's always nice to feel that what you do is appreciated, and this thread has always been appreciative of people's efforts. Whether it's someone's fanfic or a couple of icons, I can't remember the last time I saw someone's work go unnoticed without a compliment or a thank you. Let me tell you, that is a rare thing indeed.
Gosh, I'm gushing again!! I just wanted to let everyone know that even if you don't make icons or videos or write fics, you are still contributing something to this thread and, at least for me, you are one of the major reasons why I keep doing what I do (that, and an obsessive need to create!)
Oh, and I AM going to marry Nathan Fillion someday. That is all.
