Welcome to the AnimeFuel Community Forums, I'm the owner of this website Demon fox and lucky for you I'm not here to use my ninja skills on yah, plenty of time for that later I assure you. Instead I'll be telling you a little about this place.

As you should be able to tell by now you are not registered with us as of yet and probably need a good reason to do so. Between you and I we both know you're a lazy bastard and so if you don't even want to listen to the rest of my introduction speech you may as well just go register.

Otherwise here's what you can do on our forums once you've registered. When you register you will be able to chit chat in our forums, entertain yourself with games and share videos with other members. The forums allows you to get access to free downloads shared by members, fast and direct support with video problems from members and staff and make anime requests which are priortized above anyone else's.

There are many more things you can do but our aim is to bring together a community of video fans where you can feel comfortable and make lots of friends around the world. God knows you need them.

So get your butt over to the registration page and join my I mean OUR community. Oh and one more thing watch out for a crazy guy with a gun he's wandering around somewhere in these pages and you'll probably see him if you become really slack with the forum.

This message will self destruct once registration is completed.

live as someone of great material wealth, or die and be remembered for ages to come for the person you became of your own making.
I personally see the legacy of artistry as being a bit ridiculous. That a person's talent is essentially worthless until they're gone is rather ludicrous and moreover insulting. van gogh is a good model for that, I suppose.

Its an interesting question. Im not sure if i agree. See, Oscar Wilde said something along the lines of artists put in their work what they themselves dont possess. I think artists understand that they relinquish their ownership when they creat something of profound beauty - the value lying in the sense of numinous felt when its looked at and you cant buy, label, or own that. Whether or not the artist is alive is irrelevant its just an equation of time and exposure which in van goghs day didnt work out well for him.

Art is an example of 'what you know' because its an expression that isnt justified by outside influences. Masters of art have attained immortality, which is essntially what all these other succesful people are after - engraving their names on the tomes of history.
