not to appear unfair to someone...

dinasset · **Posted:** Mon Apr 04, 2016 12:22 am **(#1)**

Not to appear unfair to someone, I want just to inform all my friends here that I take a "sabbatic" period from Gimp-chat.
During the last months I've been too busy and somehow "obsessed" about plug-ins and other questions here around (like a drug?).
I need a period of ..."detoxication".
That's the reason why I do not post, not even to say thanks to those who are using or trying my filters.
See you again when I'll feel ..."clean".

Take care, Dinasset. Rest. Enjoy yourself at your own speed for awhile. You have done a lot for us and deserve a break. We'll be here when you return.

When you get burned out/overwhelmed, there is nothing wrong with stepping away. Feel better.

Thank you so much Dinasset for what you have given to this forum. So much joy with your filters and satisfaction seeing the results. Take your time to clean your mind if you need it, but please, don't forget us.

Dinasset, thank you very much for all the time you spent on making filters.
Sometimes other things are more important, for example your health physical and mental, you and your family.
Take care, see you when you feel better :ffy

You will be missed Diego and your efforts are much appreciated by me. Still, nothing wrong with having fun unless it keeps you from living life of course. Please don't be a stranger, though.

dinasset, thank you for all you do and for lighting the Gimp fire in me again. Rest, re-center and enjoy life.

Have a great sabbatical! All the plugins and scripts I have seen & tried are awesome, but everyone needs to step away every now and then.

We'll be happy to see you when you get back!

Refresh, renew, re-energize, and you will be back when you are ready. Thanks so much for all that you have already contributed to Gimp Chat. You will be missed while you are away.

Diego - have rest and take care of yourself for a while; but please do come back

Thank you for all your terrific scripts - we Gimpers love them.

A big thanks to all of you for your kind and warm expressions.
When I'll feel myself enough....detoxicated, I'll be back.
Promised.

Thank you my friend. Enjoy your life and family and when you feel better, we will be waiting for you. :bigthup

I'm feeling better.
A sabbatical period of one month is over.
I will come back to the game.
Moderately
Likely I'll follow one thread at a time.

What happy news of you, Dinasset. You have done my day. I hope you add your knowledge to the thread you want.

I chose your thread For lovers of photography to start with.
