I remember that we started conversating just when you created your dA account. And my message box told me that tommorow would be 2 years you're here, so we know each other for 2 years
I wish you lots of imagination and plenty of fabulous ideas for new art! Hugs from Poland!

I'm hoping when I die, people aren't standing around
feeling good about ripping ME & MY memory
from my friend's lives.
Shit.

Smultrontott In reply to TheMadMulatto [2011-03-10 00:43:58 +0000 UTC]

Actually, he too wanted it to be shut down if something would happen.
Yet I can understand what you mean.

TheMadMulatto In reply to Smultrontott [2011-03-10 03:57:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for not slamming me
about my insensitivity towards his family's actions.
I'm a damn close friend of Jan's cousin
and kinda have very serious mixed emotions
over this.
Jan meant a lot to me and I've known him a good while.
My apologies.

Smultrontott In reply to TheMadMulatto [2011-03-10 10:34:34 +0000 UTC]

No, it's alright. I don't want to shut down the site either, but I will have to, because Janne gave me his password if something would happen. And well, it did. He said what he wanted to be done, though I really don't want it shut down.
Anyway, it's not my decision.
No need to apologize. I know the confusion, and the heartache...

RRHarazda [2011-01-26 16:05:15 +0000 UTC]

For weeks I had doubts, but then with great sadness I realize is true. Jan had some of the very best comments I have seen on this site. Honestly, I think he was a caring person, he made many friends.
I feel sad, even if I never met him, I see his picture, and it seems like he will live forever.
We will meet, maybe in a crazy netherworld...
Farewell my friend...RIP

Janne, it is with a heavy heart that I say good bye to you, and I am ashamed to say that I did not realize your passing until this very moment.
You have been missed and will be missed always.

Cecilia here. My heart is broken. Im sorry to say that Jan isnΒ΄t with us anymore. I found him yesterday peacefully asleep. He didnΒ΄t take his own life, he just went to sleep and never woke up again. I dont know what else to say. It hurts to much. Janne was loved and he knew this. He will never be alone and I will always love him, never forget.
