I was initally planning a launch (website, and first series of features, on September 1. I'm currently half-way done in organizing, staffing, designing, and putting together enough to get this place really running. Well, several events have transpired in the last few weeks. The whole °jark / $spyed debacle was one matter. But people leaving is another.

I'm usually not one to be discouraged about anything, and I hate to admit it, but this hits me personally. I am -very- discouraged. Trust me, I've resisted feeling upset or discouraged, but I've finally gotten to the point, where -I- have had it. At this moment, I don't think it's worth time to do this. Therefore I am suspending the release of deviant spotlights at this place. It's hard to feel excited to do something that really you've just lost sudden motivation to do in an environment you're unsure about. And even if I tried to do it in the mood I'm in, it's just not going to be of the quality it needs to be. I realize like anything, this could be a spur-of-the-moment-temporary-feeling or it could be something more permanent. It's really too soon to figure which is which. So either you'll see this place up and running in the future, or you will not.

I hate going back on anything I said I'm going to do. But if I do this, I want to make sure it's good to go, and top quality. This is probably just some sort of weird funk. From the bottom of my heart, I am sorry.

Laters.
