I'm flattered to hear that you actually consider my design to be good and that you want to use it.
I do have to say that I'm not giving you a permission to use Skydramon in any way.
I created Digimons for myself only and I want to keep it that way. My digimons are still unfinised and I want to develop them myself.
I'm very happy and I appreciate the fact that you came to ask me a permission, instead of using my design on your own.
While my design is something you imagined for your own design don't let that take you down.
When I wanted to design my own Digimons I was constantly worring that my design looked too much like already excisting official Digimons or other fan-made ones.
Designing Digimons can be difficult but it's fun aswell! Take a chance and have fun!
I'd like to see your ideas and creations.

I don't create actually. I lied. I can't draw cause I have a weak imagination.

The fact that you want to create something, even if you need others to help you, means that you have a goal and inspiration.
Creating is hard and coming up with original designs and ideas is very difficult. You constantly worry if your work is good enough.
And when you see someone created something similar that you had in mind, it can bring you down. Every creator goes through this.
In order to achive your goal, do things that you love, you should never give up. You might think you have weak imagination and you can't draw...
but you'll never know how much you can improve if you give up now.
Internet is full of tutorials to help you how to do your own sprites, how to create own designs and get inspiration.
One part of doing art is to learn how to create it. Drawing is hard, but it needs to be done slowly, step by step.
People here in deviantART are not all too willing to borrow their designs, since they want to use them themselves.
There is however people who are willing to share and such are groups like
Maybe you can try and find other people who are interested in doing games aswell, you
can cooperate with them with their games and in return they can help you.
In the end, in order to make your dreams come true, you need to work on them. If you can't do it alone, find people who to work with.
Show what you can do, keep improving and work hard. It is very difficult at first, where to start and what to do, but that's what deviantART is for:
full of inspiration, tutorials and other artists to share and have fun with. You've only been a week in here. Browse through as many galleries as you can,
get inspired and take that first step in to creating.

Actually, I got kicked three times from other forums, deactivated twice from here, and have a bad reputation on deviantart as both a thief, the worst artist, a laughing stock, and worst of all, a possible hacker (which, is a false accusation because I don't know how to hack, some rumor popped up.) I've been here on DA for over 10 years and I've lost 12 friends, including floravola, and I intend not to make anymore because they all are double crossers (floravola was an exception) I however, have a pure heart, a wish for being the best artist, despite never improving, and a fine quality of heart. But I seem to be the big loser, and you know what? I'm sick of being the loser. Tutorials don't help, I've watched them all. I've followed them all, and failed them all. I've got the worst artistic mind a man could ever have. It's not fair, since I have to constantly ask others to do the work for me and get rejected one after another without end. I'm tired, and I'm thinking of commiting suicide.

You have been here for that long already yet you still come back. You've had a hard time here yet you still come back.
That really tells how much you want to be here and start over.
You say you're a good person and that you want to the best artist.
I believe that you're a nice person even if I've never met you and I can see you have a dream.

But I feel that you're being too hard on from yourself.
There is no such thing as " the best artist ". Art other see as garbage can be a master piece to another.
Improvement takes time, studying and effort. It's true, some people don't have artistic talent, it shows and they feel that way aswell.
But there are many people who had drawn and drawn, despite their works being avarage.
It's okay to feel jealous of other peoples talent but it doesn't take you too far. It took me a long time until I accepted that my style was okay.
That it was okay that my style and art wasn't the best, as long as I enjoyed making it and it atleast was good enough for me.
I want you to think these questions: Have you practiced drawing every day? Have you felt after watching a movie that you want to create something because it inspired you?
Doing art is that it takes over your life at times. I've had times when I've been very lazy and I haven't drawn in days. I haven't then improved at all.
To improve you need to make changes in your style and you need to maintain that style with constant drawing. If you do few doodles a week it won't take you anywhere.
I seriously would like to see what you can do. Maybe I could help you.
I find it both sad and contradictory that you say that you're a good person yet you still resolved on stealing from others, despite you knowing it's wrong.
Now that you have told be about your past I can understand your situation. I do empathize with you, I've had those feelings of aswell at one point in my life.
As a good and intelligent person you do realize stealing is pointless and unsatisfying. Don't give up on your principles, even if it means you can't achieve your dream.
You know from experience it doesn't end up well. You're starting now over so don't repeate the same mistake. You cannot call yourself a good person if you keep doing wrong things.
What I can see of you is that you struggle in maintaining your art and your good efforts.
You end up stealing from others, even if it's against your beliefs, since you can't get anywhere with your own art.
I've tried with my best effort to convince you that you shouldn't give up but I find it hard. I don't know what your art is like, what kind of things you like,
what really happened between you and your former friends, etc. I feel I can't help you as much as I could but I want you to know this...
Up until now you have given up on your art, your beliefs and yourself. You're unhappy you're not going anywhere. Life is not worth giving up on now after all the things you've learned.
At this point you should ask yourself: Is making games and art that I really want to do? Do I have other things and interests in life I should pursue instead?
If you give up on art and game making now it should give you time to think other things that you want to do in your life.
