Personal Milestone
Tuesday, May 15, 2007 by PoSmedley | Discussion: Community
It's taken 2 years and a 1 month and 320 uploads, but today I broke 200,000 downloads. (198 of which are from a wall that was sent to my personal gallery. Yeah, I'm proud of it.) This may not seem like much over such a long period, especially if you look at the skinners who are over a million downloads, but I felt like bragging just the same.
That's approximately, if you break it down without being terribly detailed...263 downloads a day. Not great numbers, but I can live with them.
I usually find these kind of posts cheesy and breeze through them. Now,I'm writing one.
Go figure.
I just want to thank everyone for some awesome support, encouragement, and patience (for the mods and admins). I know my stuff is odd at times, which just makes it even better that enough people like it that I got this far. I freakin' love the people here and the community.
I just wanna thank some people who really went out of their way for me.
Sleeping Dragon (where are you?) who gifted me with the OD software over a year ago, when I was just getting over my spinal fusion and really needed that kind of support and encouragement.
Jafo...for being Jafo. Sometimes I want to beat you upside the head with a wet phonebook.
Then you go and do something nice and I have to put it back in the bucket of water. You doofus.
And then everyone else who puts up with me. But NOT skinhit. I HATE skinhit. I really do. Almost as much as I hate cats. If he even responds in this thread I swear I will delete it and hire a gypsy to put a curse on him.

Damn Po, you are now only 264,512 downloads behind me. 
And I give this thread a 11 out of 10 on the cheesy scale.

And to think, I'm responsible for some of those d/l's. Dunno what made me do it....a penchant for the weird & wacky perhaps, maybe a perverse and twisted sense of humour, possibly even a peculiar & warped inability to distinguish between fact and fantasy - who knows, but one thing's fer shure me old mate, a hearty congrats on your milestone and I hope you surpass it several times over in a very short time.

A hearty congrats indeed. I think I would be better if you soak Skinhit in the bucket of water and hit Jafo with him while he's reading the phonebook, learning new words.

I notice I wasn't thanked. 
HUM
Po' It's been a pleasure working with you on some of the early DX stuff you did and a pleasure to see what you have accomplished. Let's see the next 200k in one year, OK?
(and take care this weekend)

Skinhit would have gotten jealous.
Thanks. I couldn't have done half the DX stuff without your input. And I should have mentioned that you've been a great help in keeping me sane lately. But then, I suppose it should be everybody else thanking you for that.
Is there a patron saint of morphine? lol
