and here i thought you died.... good work as always dg

Well, well. It's a been quite a long time since I saw you. I think the same could be said of you, I mean I thought you left Infinity for good a long time ago. Didn't really think I'd ever see the likes of you again.

I am alive, I just disappeared from here and was elsewhere for quite some time. I've been over at Sinhra as my forum of choice and using DeviantArt as my main art outlet. To be honest I have no idea why I came back here, I won't be around much longer actually. I'm on hiatus for now and plan on a full retirement from the Mugen community and from all requests. I need to get out and do so for good. I always had a issue with leaving it all behind, but I don't see anything holding me around any longer.

Anyway, thanks and remember to just go to DeviantArt if you want to see my works. It's a nice place for me since I can share my work and organize it the way I want without having to deal with forum community crap.

edit: you wouldn't be interested in a request from a old friend would you? i would like to request a wallpaper, would you do it?

sent the request to your pm box

Darkgargos · « **Reply #77 on:** August 23, 2012, 12:23:15 AM »

Thank you, I don't plan on ever giving up on my art and graphics at least while I'm alive. I may take hiatuses and such, but I always find my way back to art again. Memories indeed, The Deviants, Team Demon and the whole friendly rivalry we had, it was fun for the time, but things change. I'm not even in contact with Akeme anymore, he just disappeared or moved on with his life. And I feel I should do the same, just move on and leave the Mugen community behind me. I came back for one last shot, but too much has changed and I now see this community holds nothing for me anymore and will only cause me to grow stagnant and even more frustrated.

I got your PM and replied

Just came in to say hello to an old friend and an impressive artist! Long time no see DG. Glad to see you are still alive.

Darkgargos · « **Reply #79 on:** August 24, 2012, 12:20:13 AM »

, this is hilarious, all the Deviants coming out of hiding to say hi and pay their respects to little ole me....I'm flattered. I find it funny just because I disappeared from Infinity people seem to think I died when I have been around this whole time, just not on this site in particular. That's why I have links to where I am currently so people can still follow me and my work.

Anyway, it's good to hear from you Prea, it's like a reunion of sorts. Too bad I'll be leaving soon..oh well. I guess I made more of an impression than I thought, but then again there not many within the Mugen community that do what I do at the same level of quality so I stick out I suppose. And yet at the same time my works go mostly ignored because this community is obsessed with Mugen. I bet if I made Mugen stuff it would be very different, but that's why I'm at DeviantArt and have been for 8 months now. It's a site for art of all kinds and more fitting for someone like me.

I hope you are alright, was wondering if you guys were even still around. Ever since you guys left and I left, this area died. We made quite the impact here it seems. Things sure have changed, not as fun as it was. Without some competition it's boring and not worth staying around. I'm just glad there are still those that appreciate my work even after everything that has happened.

Dude, we consider you an unofficial member of our team. Have for quite awhile. You helped us improve our skills a lot over the years when we collaborated together. Well me, and Shinra left IMT due to some issues in the past. But I won't drudge up old history because to be honest it's in the past and that's where it's gonna stay. I harbor no ill feelings towards the people here.

So since we left here, we've been using my forum to keep in contact(sorry OUR forum). Hell we've got a good 3 dedicated deviant threads on our forum that's like 300+ pages long. Which is why we keep having to make threads

.

But I do agree that the graphics section here hasn't been the same since we left. It's definitely a shadow of it's former self. Likewise I hear ya on the "no competition makes things boring." Here lately all of us have been having a lot of various personal stuff/issues going on in our lives so while we keep in contact daily on our forum, we haven't been doing a lot of GFX work. Heck besides resizing wallpapers I've found on various websites, I haven't made an avatar/sig in about a year. Between college and severe medical issues that have developed over the last year and a half, GFX art is just out of the picture atm. But even without us doing GFX work, we still do have fun.

So DG, you should stop by sometime. Don't care about anything that transpired in the past, hell I don't even remember any of it to begin with. So the door will always be open. Just register and you'll be given the proper permissions.

Yes, that is fact I already have made an account at the site some time ago, of course I don't remember my login details after all this time. I just sort of left cause there wasn't much going on there and I was already at Sinhra helping out and stuff and I tend to keep myself to one forum.

@Prea: Yeah I know all about the past drama between you guys and IMT, we all have had our issues with IMT and left. I also stopped doing art and graphics for some time, just stuff going on in my life too. I lost my motivation which seems to happen often, but finally found my groove again and got busy doing stuff. I'm on another break of sorts again as I figure out what my plans are. More than likely DeviantArt will be my home, but I'm considering the possibility of a new website.

Well it's up to you man. If you wanna come back over to our forum, even if it's just to say hi from time to time, let me know and I can easily give you your login ID and reset your password for you. That's not a problem at all.

Likewise if you decide to make a site, best of luck and I'll be sure to drop by.

Dude my memory is crap, even more so with my current situation.

Darkgargos · « **Reply #84 on:** August 27, 2012, 12:49:11 AM »

Thanks, but I just want to try removing myself from forums in general. I've developed a distaste for them, I guess I'm just going back to keeping to myself for the most part. A website is a possibility, but it would probably end up not a forum just a website with all my artwork. But considering DeviantArt does all that for me and gives me my own page with a journal and stuff I don't see much need to go through the trouble making a website. Which is why I will have a big link to my page over there on the first post of this thread so when people come in they know where to find me.

I have a crap memory as well and it keeps getting worse, but it's effected by different reasons. We all got issues one way or another, it's life and we just got to do our best and remain strong through the toughest of times.

I'll be making a "goodbye post on Monday or Tuesday and then leaving this thread open till the end of the week for folks to say goodbye or whatever. Then on Friday this will be locked and adjustments made to the first post and then I will be out of here. Same goes for my sprite thread too.

Vault-tec Rep Høröúßøí · « **Reply #85 on:** August 27, 2012, 01:31:18 PM »

I HAVE THE LAST REQUEST ON IMT FROM THE GODLIKE DG!!!!!

we'll all miss you dg, you are the most talented s.o.b. in the imt gfx community and there will never be another team demon or Darkgargos!

thanks by the way, the wallpaper is currently on my laptop desktop and it will never get replaced by ANYTHING!

(click to show/hide)

its like a dream come true to have a wallpaper by you custom made for my laptop!

<-- and your one of the greatess spartans!!!!!

Darkgargos · « **Reply #86 on:** August 27, 2012, 07:01:21 PM »

, thanks HB

I'm no god, but I appreciate the compliment. It's true there will never be another Team Demon or someone the likes of me around here. But as I have said before you all know where to find me as my DeviantArt page is the one stop place to see my work and what I'm up to. I mean, I'm not vanishing off the net, just from the Mugen Community and possibly from forums in general.

At least this time I'm leaving on better terms, I always wanted to patch things up with IMT before I ever permanently left here. It just didn't feel right to have left things as they were, plus I got my old account unbanned so now I feel like I can leave in peace without any hard feelings or regret. It's not good to keep grudges or ill feelings toward people as it just eats away at you. But I have grown beyond IMT now and my skills just don't feel suited to this place or rather the Mugen Community. It's not like I would ever be useful to the Infinity Team as I don't work with Mugen at all.

And on that note, I want to thank IMT and everyone I have met here over the years. If it wasn't for IMT, I would never be where I am now or least things would be very different in any case. The whole Team Demon vs. The Deviants was also a fun time and helped me improve so I have to thank my competitors as well. I also want to apologize once again about my past and things that I either said or did. Drama should be left in the past so I'll leave it at that.

Anyway, this thread shall remain open till Friday, so feel free to post in here till then everyone. Before I lock the thread at the end of the week I will make one last post and then lock it. I know there are people who don't believe I will leave for good since I made a habit of coming back, but this time it's a permanent deal as I have nothing to call me back or hold me here anymore. I already knew I was going to leave when I came back, it was mostly just to patch things up as I couldn't leave things the way they were from the last time I was here. I wanted to be able to finally leave in good graces and with my name not soiled.

Final Post

Not much to say for my last post here as I have already said what needs to be said, but I just want to say my final goodbye everyone. I doubt many will care though and this community will just go about their business as usual. IMT was my first forum way back when and it gave me a place get my start on the net. I'm thankful for having joined all those years ago and for everyone that supported me.

A time comes for everyone that that they must follow a new path and indeed that time has come for me. I will not be returning here or to anywhere within the Mugen Community. I'm done and I need to shift my focus elsewhere. Since I will continue to be at DeviantART and it will be the one place to find me don't say I disappeared as all you have to do is go there to find me.

If by chance my Photobucket links break, staff is free to dump this thread or whatever they wish. I won't be around anymore so whatever happens to this thread is not my concern.

I'm putting a link and logo/button to here and on the front page for people to click on to find me. Farewell Infinity.....*walks off into the sunset*

Important Update! Thread Reopened! Front Page Updated and Reworked!

Yes it is I Darkgargos/DG and I have decided to come out of retirement. Why you may ask? For the heck of it I suppose. There have been changes going on for me, I have dropped sprite work and GFX for the most part to concentrate on my digital painting future over at Deviantart. But a part of me still wants to do forum graphics as a side thing. So here I am back to the fray, but with a new and simpler focus.

Previously called "Insignia Dimensions" this thread is now called "Signature Dojo". The purpose and focus of this thread will be signature arts of various types, with some bonus content here and there just for fun. Now I am a bit rusty at this so I need some practice and stretch my legs so to speak. After that I will welcome requests from folks here at Infinity. I will make a post about requests when I am ready.

I know I've been gone for a while, but please lets keep any drama out of this thread. Regardless of my past there is a part of me that will always be a member here at Infinity. Besides, who else around here does this sort of thing at the quality I do? You guys could use my contribution and it's time I put my skills back to use here. Let's just have fun and enjoy what I will share here at good ole Infinity

Now I can't be expected to be here nor do this sort of thing 100% of the time, as I can be busy with other things. So please forgive my absence and inactivity from time to time.

Here are some new signatures that have been added, well not really new per say as these are old signatures that have just been sitting around and I decided to update them to look nicer and finally share them. Not much I know, but there will be more to come.

Thanks Rage.... I just noticed you are a member of IMT now, congrats on that. Man, I haven't been over at D-Gen in like forever...not sure why I never stop by. I guess I just have been keeping to myself for most part for a while now and I tend to limit the forums I use. The only place I usually go to is Sinhra really.

To be honest I really miss the whole Team Demon vs The Deviants friendly competition thing. Those were the days.

Hey Lando, nice to see you again. Wow, you are part of IMT too? Damn, seems like everybody I used to know is a member of IMT now...times have changed. Maybe if I had stayed loyal all these years I would have had the same opportunity......well maybe not, I can't do anything Mugen related so I would never be of any use. I'm pretty content with what I'm doing now so it's all good.

But anyway, thanks and glad you still like my work. I will continue to share my GFX and depending on how well things are received here I may go back to sharing all my crazy stuff again. But for now I'm keeping it simple to see how things go.

If only I had my former Team Demon partners to get things really rolling again....oh well, that's all gone now unfortunately Hmmmmm, maybe I could rebuild a new Team Demon......meh, wouldn't be same without my good former teammates.

Darkgargos · « **Reply #97 on:** May 13, 2013, 10:20:40 AM »

Update!

Yes, another stupid thread title change....when is the idiot that keeps doing this going to stop and make up his mind? Oh wait...that's me Yeah, been thinking about it and since I will be sharing more than just signatures in here thought I'd just make a slight change to the name to reflect things better. I had initially planned on just having this be a signature topic, but after some consideration I thought I should just go back to doing what I always do and just post all my crazy stuff...if I can manage to fit it all on the front page that is. Not sure if I should put back up my old stuff or just move on with new works instead. I'll figure all this out.

I also will be reopening my sprite thread and making a new thread for avatar and signature templates as well, basically I'm getting things rolling again here at Infinity. I may not have Team Demon to back me up anymore, but it's all cool I'm more a one man army anyway and well, I think my work speaks for itself to be honest. I haven't decided on my request plans, I may forgo that as I don't think I will have time for it.

For now here are a few new signatures and a Marvel Super Heroes logo, all free to use

Darkgargos · « **Reply #98 on:** May 17, 2013, 12:06:31 PM »

Nothing to really post, I'm just shamelessly promoting and advertising my Deviantart page for those that may not know. Feel free to check out all my various works by clicking the logo below and if you are a member at DA also feel free to add me to your follow list. Ok, I'm done with my shameless plug now
