That checklist gives me just what I need to be methodical in my criticism *saves*... I won't be able to dedicate nearly enough time to all those who deserve reviews but... *smirks* I already know that I'm just one dude. This sounds like the beginning of a fun new hobby

Hmmm... Sinewav does seem to have some good ideas there. Alrighty then... I'll make a point of keeping track of any songs that compel me in some way or form, be they good or bad, and make notes and work on a review now and then (the more compelling the work the more likely I'll be able to make a worthwhile review...) When presenting my work on DA or whatever, comments and input on my stuff are always fun, so it makes perfect sense. I never thought to look through WIPs... definately a mistake on my part I suppose. I'll hunt down some and see if I can't make suggestions, though I'm more hesitant to say "this should be done to this to make it complete"... but meh... learn by example: I'll read some WIP reviews and figure out what needs to be done.

This is just a thread I thought to put up to show my love for this site. I've been a long-time lurker to this site (at least 5 years, though it is likely much more)... I've downloaded a great deal of music, and yet I've never really done anything to contribute. I guess you could say I'm feeling a bit of guilt and am trying to make right... If I *really* wanted to show my thanks, I could at the very least donate, right? I guess I will go with the old cop-out answer "I never had a lot of money to throw around, so I never bothered"... more so now than ever. I won't bore anyone here with details on why me or my life might be so pathetic as to not have the cash to show my appreciation, but I assure you I've thought about it. Maybe circumstances will line up so I can at least chunk down a hundred or so in cash, or maybe I'll just remember to slap a 20 down the next time my luck perks a mite... but in the mean time, this thread is basically a humbling thank you to those composers who take the time and effort to make such fun, energizing, and usually nostalgic remixes. I suppose the best thing I can do for now is just kneel and bow in the most humbling way possible. Might seem a bit dramatic, but meh, I want my sincerity to be known, even if I am a flake;) So yeah, thanks to all those out there in the community who keep this site going well, and give shlubs like me the energy to get things done: be it chores, work, travel, or artwork commissions, the boost I get from listening to the music here on my player makes it possible to not only do things fast and efficient, but to have fun doing them. I suppose... if anyone wanted to add to the thread their own thanks to the site and community as a whole, they could add something here (though I'd wager I'm not the first "thank you" thread-maker out there)... otherwise, know that your work is appreciated at least as much as I can possibly voice it (and I do refer folks when I get the chance)... Keep up the work as long as you enjoy it people... you're freakin' heroes:nicework:
