Your support is overwhelming! I've reached 50K views in, like, 10 seconds! (Well, that's an exaggeration, but, you get the point.)


And as a thank you for your support, I'm giving out a kiriban prize to whoever catches the 55,555 view of this site! :) Sounds like kidstuff? :) Weell. :)


Send me a screenshot with my page counter set at 55,555.
You get a 8.5:"x11", 300dpi colored artwork (of your choice).

No Photoshopped images, please, or I will haunt you in your sleep and eat your eyeballs for dinner!
