About the Author
Bart Veldhuizen
I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

I really like this picture.
So much attention to details, and the penguin is really well done.
Are you sure this is not a real picture? ;)
Common Bart, this doent get moderated, but i do? Juste wow.
Come on man, I've explained to you in detail how this works. Are you going to keep moaning every time this happens? Please.
Bart, moaning?
This is just a little unprofessional don't you think. I really appreciate what you've created for this community, but you need to stay professional and respectful. You are the owner of this website. I've always been nice, yes? So what's this? You've told me that there was some things happening with the WordPress post managent system being overly blocky , especially with my email. And by the way, I was referring to the fact that someone reply to my nice comment congratulating the artist, telling me i that I had to stop sucking his balls. And I was wondering why his post was not moderated right away as being insulting, but mine just always gets moderated. That's all. So I would ask you, from a grown man to another, let's be a little more polite to each other. That would be nice. I respect you and this website, but please, it helps when it goes both ways. Or do you just want me to stop coming by and posting those nice thoughts on those amazing posts about all those talented people here, about every chance I have, to encourage them and to see what there are all capable of? Just ask. You could of easily just emailed me directly to explain nicely what was going on, instead of asking me to stop moaning? Thank you in advance for your comprehension and understanding. With respect, best regards.
You're right, it was a primary reaction. I just woke up to find the ball licking comment and then yours and I just got annoyed, my apologies for that.
Please understand though that I cannot influence the way my spam filter handles you, I've tried and it is just not clear why it happens. Other comments I have to remove manually and it costs me a LOT of time and I try to do a good job.
I think it was your 'just wow' comment that put me over the edge as it sounded rather sarcastic. Again, my fault for snapping, but please just accept that your comments go into moderation most of the time - I'll clear them always.
Thank you Bart for this post.
I do understand all the work you are doing and really truly appreciate. I also apologize for my comment. I understand how it could of offended you. I was at work on my break when I saw that I had a response on this post and rushed over in existment and joy to see what others have written to this artist, to see the childish comment from that licking thing and got insulted. Stress job plus a childish comment triggered my ego and affected me.
It's really silly actually. I get emotional and try as hard as possible to control myself. So the fact that my own email for some reason always gets monitored for some reason, but his childish response got thought got me mad. Sorry about that.
I could also just start using another email which seems to work better. And maybe wait a day or two before going on your site. It's hard tho! Cause I'm so motivated by all those post about Blender things. And also give me a break from my job.
So again, thank you for all that you do for this community, it is really appreciated.
And sorry for being a cry baby :)
Kind regards, Aclariel.
