✨🎉 This is it, everyone—my social media journey has officially reached 6 years today! 🎉✨
Over these years, my platform has faced its fair share of struggles: haters, harassment, cyberbullying, art theft, plagiarism, and even the heartbreak of seeing content flop. But through it all, I kept pushing forward. Honestly, without your support, I probably would’ve given up a long time ago and abandoned my dream of becoming an artist and content creator.
What helped me persevere were the friendships I built and the inspiration I gained from my favorite artists and animators. They encouraged me to keep going, improve my craft, and bring new energy into this platform.
Thank you for standing by me over these 6 years and helping me grow across so many communities—Twitter/X, Bluesky, Instagram, Threads, Tumblr, Cara, Newgrounds, DeviantArt, FurAffinity, and YouTube. It’s always been my dream to share my art with the world and connect with more amazing creators, and you’ve made that dream a reality.
To those who’ve been here a while—how long have you supported me? Since this year? 2024? 2023? 2022? 2021? 2020? Or even all the way back in 2019 when I was still Shizukathefox? Do you remember my very first OC, Shizuka? Do you remember when I used bases for my art? If so, you’re officially an OG Shizukathefox fan! 🦊 If not, that’s totally fine too—because every fan, whether new or old, deserves to feel welcome. 💙
This goes for Newgrounds as well. I’ve been active there since August 2024, and it’s become such a big part of my life. To every Newgrounds user who’s supported me—thank you for helping me feel at home in that community for over a year now.
At the end of the day, I just want to say: thank you. Thank you for keeping this platform alive, for encouraging me through the highs and lows, and for believing in me as both an artist and a creator. Here’s to 6 years of growth—and many more ahead! 🦊💙🩵🩷💖✨
