UPDATE & THANKS: To view this flash as intended with sound head over to this page on my website. This also resolves the odd problem with deviantART cropping the animation. My special thanks go to the policy violation team for allowing the deviation to remain on deviantART for a short while with the unlicensed sound. Inevitably it's time to remove the sound from the deviantART hosted movie; hence the mirror on my site. Thanks to $realitysquared for the kindly written note regards this.

My heartfelt thanks go to *asymons, ©suzi9mm and `mirrorkills for their part in granting me a daily deviation feature to aide in spreading the message ((was wondering why I blinked and my message centre suddenly exploded)). My warmest regards to :devfirelite-photo: who bought me an additional year's subscription. Also, to the thousands of staff/members who kindly took the time to view the movie; plus the many hundreds of you who commented and/or added the deviation to your favourites. I have responded too and thanked everyone; quite a monumental task I must add! Thanks to those who then went on to view my main page and gallery - it has been very much appreciated. Lastly, thank you to the many who mentioned me and/or this deviation in their journals.

August 7th: A special day for everyone as deviantART celebrates five years of operation as the largest arts community online. Today is about thanks and praise for what we have as a community and a day for putting aside the issues that threaten to ruin everything. I've thought long and hard about what I was going to do on this day. Am I to follow the yellow army and focus all my attention on one man; or turn around and say thank you to the whole community? I know which of the two is going to be most productive at the end of the day, so let's put the politics aside please.

The various staff members past and present who deserve your thanks today:
`alchemism °arc °attila ^blackice @bluespeed9 `brazensix `bzed $chris :devdamphr: +dinyctis `dj-designs °dygel +ekud °euphoria :devfirelite-photo: `frail `fusionrock ^halfliquid ^hesitation $hexentanz @igy °jark °jsenn $liquisoft $lolly ^mangapunksai °matteo $mccann $MikeyLove $Moonbeam13 °ndifference `olya ^serpentinekiss ^silentkitty :devsivein: `skyOrange $spyed ^superkev ©suzi9mm °tack `twosilverstars ^yathosho

They've made a difference to this community one way or the other ((apologies to those I'm sure I missed out)). Now's your chance to support the community by doing something for someone else today. I know it's easy to get caught up in this ongoing saga over °jark's dismissal but just for one day please think about the community at large.

Enjoy the movie.
