Hi Lynn,
If you're referring to my gallery, I thank you
for your concern. I do believe that cels can be
shared without problems, but I was personally
attacked recently by a fellow collector. She
informed me that I only collect cels to impress
others. If I had a gallery full of c-quality
cels and I publicly announced every update, I
would probably be petted on the head and given a
bone. But since my cels are primarily of a
little higher quality, even the fact that I don't
announce anything about my cels very frequently,
has someone thinking that I'm out to impress.
I collect for myself and I'm fine with being the
only one able to see my cels. I have also given
my password out to those that have emailed me for
it. I'm not trying to hide them, but when
someone tries to put me down because of them,
forget it!
Collectors that share their cels with the public
aren't obligated to do so, it's just nice when
they do. I enjoyed displaying my cels and I may
reopen my gallery to the public someday, but for
now, I'm offended. I know I shouldn't let one
idiot shut me down, but I'm looking to move
(slowly) away from collecting anyway, so this may
be a good way to start.
Take care,
Carol |
