My post wasn't meant to offend you, Loki, it was meant, at least in my head, a means of trying to support you, letting you know that I, and I know others here (even if they'd never admit it) have been where you are. Frustrated, I won't say desperate, that seems a bit strong.... but frustrated, that is very visible, and I get that. I can't tell you how many times I have gotten and DO get frustrated and feel like I am just spinning my wheels trying to figure out where to start to dig out of the funk I get myself into sometimes. With work, personal, or any other aspect of my world. I get insanely frustrated sometimes and I go over in my head, every single thing you have done here in public.... so don't think for a split second I don't get where you are coming from. ESPECIALLY if you have a family, the frustration can be worse.
I mean, seriously. look at the talent you possess... as an artist myself, I envy your talent, I can paint on canvas and I can paint still life like no one's business.. but ask me to do anything with eyes and I am a total 1st grader at best..... or anything on the computer with graphics programs. I would kill to possess your talent..... my 13 yr old possesses the talent to do that, and I am in awe of anyone that can do it.
Having said that.. to get out of your funk, you just need to step back, evaluate that talent and respect it and use it. Take baby steps to get back that success you had. Don't do what I have tried to do so many times and take all of the steps at one time, it isn't going to do anything but make you more frustrated.....
Start with one site.... baby steps...... get it up and moving and make another, add that to the mix..... get it up and get it going... and on and on and on. 1 step at a time. I know you need money and you need it yesterday, but sell what you have now to people to get the fast cash.... and work on it yourself for your own means to an end. That's all I am trying to say.
I wasn't trying to imply that you don't have the capacity to move forward, you clearly DO.... and any idiot can see this... just breathe.... as hard as that may sound right this minute, just breathe.
