Description
This picture means a lot to me.Everyday I come on to dA hoping someone will notice my art, leave me a message, watch me, anything just so i know that someone cared about my artwork even for a second. Normally this doesn't happen. Usually the only messages in my inbox are "thanks for the Favs" and Favs. (which I could care less about really) So if you come across this please comment or comment and fav. Avoid faving and running (even though most people still will) I could talk about the personal symbolism more but I don't feel like it at the moment
Anyway The binary code actually means stuff. I put a "/" in between each word and "//" between each phrase.
If you can actually figure it out I will do something special (probably draw you something
)**EDIT**
Thanks to everyone who comments on this saying something along the lines of "I can connect to this" "I've felt this way" because it means a lot.
It's really made me feel like I've actually made my mark on the world and it's a small one (for right now) but it really makesme happy and feel like a true artist.
EDIT II***
I got a DD
lol .. I'm kinda speechless right now.
And sorry if I don't respond to the messages fast. I want to thank you guys properly so it will take me a while.
ay to often)
It's been a month after i got the DD and I still have 170 some comments
I love procrastinating and I really want to answer each and every comments so please be patience and I'm really sorry. I did read them all So thank you so much for all the support.

This reminds me a lot of Radar Love by Golden Earring, sadly, it also reminds me of my 2 year mostly long distance relationship through MSN and skype. (we lived together for 2 separate times of a month each, then we split at the end of that second month actually together.) I want to be optimistic for those that have long distance relationships, but all I want to say is don't make any rash decisions.

This is great! You nailed it. There's so many times where I wish I could
reach through the computer to get someones attention or help someone...
p.s I hate the "thank you for the fav" comments too, I just hide them because it turned
into spam

Inorite?! they get so annoying, especially when you watch someone and every time you fav something they made they thank you for it .

I love this... I understand how you feel. I mean, I have a few friends on here, quite close ones, and they seem to be the only people who ever comment on anything any more. And even then, the things I do get comments for eventually is fanart, and that's not the same as an original piece...
I for one think that this deserved the DD wholly, on both the way you've portrayed the art, and the colours you used. It stands out so much!!

Wow I love this SO much!!
I feel like this a lot, most of my best friends either I only know on dA or live stupidly far away and I never see them... so I can really connect with this... epicsoity

Ahh I love this picture 
A lot of people probably say this but I often feel the same too.
Sometimes its just nice to be able to talk to people who don't know you, and don't have any judgments against you, and the internet is probably the best way to find those people 
P.S. The whole binary words thing is awesome

Saw this on Being A Geek on FaceBook and just had to track it down to use as a wallpaper. Brilliant. Made me want to cry.

And thanks for telling me where it was posted on FB. I have had a few people mention to me that they saw it on there but I couldn't find it.

I feel this way almost all the time. I had a lot of trouble in my life dealing eith people and I turned to art. When I tired to get critisism or oppinions on it people would just say " thats nice" or "it sucks". Thats change a bit now but I can still connect to this. The way you drew this is really cool.

thanks for the comment
also it is good to hear you connect to this. personally i still have problems trying to commincate with people around me. Then again that is probably more connected to my habit of arguing about philosiphy then art XD

When I got into collage it became easier to communicate. Especaily because it was an art program. But I'm still being told by people I knew in Highschool that I'm useless and that I won't make it as an artist. But here on DA and in collage I'v found a community that I can relate to. And if you ever want a good philosiphy dicussion I'm totally up for it. I love hering diffrent oppinions ^_^!!

Well thats good to hear.
And awesome it is good to know people who want to have good philosophy discussions

I am reading your artists' comments and this picture really hit home for me. I post a lot of my work with the hopes that someone will leave me a comment to show they care about my work, and the thing I hate the most is seeing a bunch of favorites on it. I admit I will fave and run sometimes, but most of the time it has to do with the fact that the artist is particularly popular and doesn't have time to answer to all comments.
Also, I'm going to leave this picture up and figure out the binary code. :3
I think those that say anything about the anatomy being off and all need to shut up. This picture has a deep meaning, and I love it. <3 It makes me want to draw something a little similar, hehe. :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I do the same thing too.
And personally I don't mind helpful criticisms,it is just redundant when 10+ people tell you the same thing is wrong with your pic XD (part of the arm is missing).
And if you do make that drawing do you mind sending me the link? I would love too see it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, yeah, that'd get pretty annoying.
And sure thing, if I ever actually draw it you'll be the first to know. :3

Very nice! I know that I can totally relate, and it's a very creative way of communicating this very shared feeling. Great work, and congrats on the DD!

Man, I hear ya. People fav&run me all the time, and I just feel like if you like my stuff enough to fav it then tell me why. The only people I hear from are my friends from outside dA.
Also I hear ya on the procrastination.
Anyway, beautiful art! Congrats on the DD!

Yeah, there's always that awkward ache in your stomach when you don't get anything but views on something you've worked on. It's because you put your heart out in the open, and it hurts when no one really...
anyway. The lighting works wonders here. :]

I really have felt like this sometimes too, I wish I knew even the faintest thing about Binary so I could decipher it XD
