What's the point? You post, it is forgotten and so you post again and it is forgotten...give someone a inch and they want a mile. This has all been done before, redundancy at it's finest.

When I decide to take more photos, I'll post them, but not for the sake of proving myself, my accomplishment's speak for themselves, but instead for the articles I write, for my own education, or for my own personal pleasure. It is obvious I don't just have one single tree, it is obvious I do not have world class bonsai, it is also obvious that I do in fact grow bonsai, accents, and that I have many species of plants in various stages of development. It is also obvious that regardless of what is in my backyard, I contribute to the community. When I leave this world, I'll leave behind more than what was there before I came. And that my friends, is all one could ask for.
Put up or shut up? Those words have been used here often.
I put up every single day of the week, Like it or not, I help bring the world of bonsai to your computer, I helped to compile the web's largest collection of world class galleries, the web's largest collection of interviews from world class artists, and the web's largest collection of blogs from the same. I have helped create and run two of the most successful bonsai contests ever on the web and am helping raise the awareness of bonsai as an art form. I am currently on the board of the first American National Bonsai Show (coming soon). I have had my thoughts published in national bonsai magazines on numerous occasions and I actively submit articles for discussion at KoB and AoB, both forums which I also am a co-founder and active editor of.
Bragging? Just stating the facts, like posting a tree, they say this is what I do, this is what I accomplish, this is what I put up, not just trees.
Put up or shut up?
Please, don't insult me.
You want to talk about bonsai then do so, debating me has not accomplished a thing over the last two years, it hasn't stopped me, it hasn't silenced me, and it certainly hasn't harmed me. I ain't going away, AoB and KoB are growing and they are not going anywhere, learn to live with it, or ignore it, but stop wasting time that could be spent talking about bonsai worrying about what I have in my backyard or what I had for breakfast and with who.
My trees are doing just fine. they get better each year, I get better each year, what more could one ask for?
