    Well, This right here is the absolute saddest part of all this. I looked forward to each, and every post of your comic. I will check the other sites, but I want to say a deep, heartfelt thanks for what you have created, no matter the method. It is wonderful. Keep up the great work!

    For real! I almost had the final pages ready for posting too! Oh well, I'll get them out there one way or another. Hope to see you on the other sites, ZooLoup! Thanks again for all your amazing comments! Will try my best to get everything over to the other sites soon!

    Dang. That was quick. Can I view your content without an account?

    Well to view civit red nsfw content you need to at least be logged in, that is it I think, no sub or anything. I'll prolly keep posting raw gens for prompt saving to later post if a new site like e6ai pops up or whatever happens. So M4lly and other things will be civit atm.

    Well, some of his posts not at all to my tastes, but I respect his output and dedication to the gens and he had some good stuff too, as well as charas and franchises no one else would touch. I wont belittle him for any of it. Just glad it was something other for the last post thats more pedestrian 8-)

    It’s a shame that something so beautiful has to come to an end. It’s truly sad. I’ve built up a collection of 3,000 desktop wallpapers—all thanks to the folks here. I absolutely love AI-generated art; compared to it, things like photos of nature or other such subjects just seem completely dull. I have no desire to go back to the kind of artwork found on e621, either. I don’t know of any alternatives. I’m glad I saved everything—I’ll be spending time going through the files I have stored on my drives.
    Thank you, everyone! This is a very sad moment.

    Since theres no e6ai group on telegram is anyone interested in helping me set one up? I can create super groups on there that allows the use of topics which are basically separate chats within a chat and I know how to make communities to link multiple groups up so they can all be located here's a link if interested
    https://t.me/+s45ljYGKPLtjMmM5

    Will you be storing all the artwork from this site there, or is it just for creators to post their own creations? Anyway, I wish you luck and hope some good AI content site will appear!

    Anywhere else to follow your stuff since this is getting shut down?

    Edit: sorry, just saw your other post going over this. Sad to see this go. I liked a lot of what people posted here, but your comic was some of my favorite stuff because of the laughs it also brought. Also, always appreciate some twokinds in the mix. You dont get much good twokinds on regular e6.

    Glad i have had a habit of saving everything that caught my eye. Hinestly i farm more from here tuan regular e6, i only hit the popular page on it. Honestly its some bs, its a whole seperate site, they shouldn't care what happens elsewhere. Kveral due to the high standards, the art is generally nice here vs the steaming piles of soulless slop elsewhere where they don't even put effort into making something nice or consistant characters. This week blows... and not the fun way.

    Can't edit the post anymore so I will post it here.

    Since they just announced that we are no longer able to upload, this will be my last post here and your last chance to join. There are also some other great directors posting over on Discord as well.
    Even though the site had very strict upload rules and some of my posts ended up getting deleted, I still had a lot of fun on the platform and got to meet some amazing people along the way. I want to thank everyone who enjoyed my gens!
    To any director who is losing their main posting platform with this shutdown, my Discord is always open for you if you can't find anywhere else to post. For anyone else, I really hope you find a new home for your work, and I wish you all a bright and happy future.
    Goodbye to everyone!

    Try looking at it from a different angle: perhaps this will push more people towards other platforms, places where users and creators are treated with the respect they deserve, where the rules actually make sense, and where the staff know how to behave like rational, decent human beings. As far as I'm concerned, I won't be mourning the loss of this place. I mourn the tens of hours I wasted because of it.

    Nice animation though :))

    Yup, because a few people would simply get their toes in an uproar if they were even the slightest messed up.

    Such an unfortunate thing to happen, hopefully they come to some terms and decide to keep it open. :/

    I appreciate the support from my images over the years and will still periodically upload in the E6AI discord.

    I almost never go to e621 because there is too much trash to filter through to get to anything good. This site has great art on every page.

    It's sad that AI is taking over the work of artists but it's the reality we live in. We have to cope. We can't shut our eyes and pretend it isn't happening and hope for the best. If we have to deal with AI, then we might as well get some damn enjoyment out of it!

    I hope we can disagree like gentlemen. Handshake, smile, keep talking. The internet has gotten so full of pure spite that it feels rare to just sit with different views without trying to crush the other person. I still want that, even when it’s hard.

    Absolute takes on whether AI has a place in art or none at all feel unwise to me. We’ve been arguing about what counts as art since photography. Pressing a button on a box isn’t automatically art. Doing it with real care, composition, context, and intent can still reach people. Same with prompting. I don’t like that anyone can just declare themselves an artist. Painters, illustrators, directors, storytellers, even careful prompters—those are fine. “Artist” is something other people raise you to when the work actually moves them. A thousand filtered selfies, fingerpaints, mediocre funding-driven movies, AAA Studios creating the worst of games, or pure prompt spam don’t automatically qualify just because someone wants the title.

    Some people reduce the whole idea of art down to their own hunger for the story of the starving artist—the toiling, suffering, romantic figure who must bleed for it to count. That story has beauty for people who need it, but it isn’t the only way. Effort isn’t the whole story either. Someone sitting on a rock telling a story that makes strangers cry can be more of an artist than someone grinding forever for nothing. Mastery often looks quieter than people expect—less wasted motion, more of the thing that actually lands. Sun Tzu wrote about winning with elegance and as few moves as possible. A lot of the real victories in life look like that and go unnoticed.

    AI datasets are a snapshot of the visible internet of humanity. That’s why the argument about “stealing art” feels incomplete to me. Steve Jobs liked quoting Picasso: “Good artists copy; great artists steal.” T.S. Eliot said something close: “Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal.” Of course you still have to make it your own. But shapes, lines, ideas, words, colors—at some point the opposite turns dystopian. Corporations already copyright birdcalls, the sound of wind, nature ambience, even specific colors. Ownership of ideas has become one of the strongest weapons companies use against each other and against everyone else. I don’t condone direct theft of finished objects or money. I do find the total lock-down of iteration strange.

    Of course we get flooded with slop on For You pages, recommendations, and when scrolling. We call those places home? Is this really the place we lost? We shouldn’t use those things in the first place. We’re supposed to tell one another what we like, visit the channels we want directly, and search out things with purpose and will instead of letting the algorithm serve us and then complaining about what arrived.

    At the same time the tools can be useful. My brother cares for someone paralyzed from the neck down; they give him back expression and function. I’m a nurse for a post-stroke patient who used to do technical drafting and now struggles with her hands. I generate custom writing practice sheets for her every day so the exercises aren’t childish. It takes minutes and frees time for actual care. That’s not nothing to me.

    Prompters can still be artists if they treat it like a director: not chasing cash or instant dopamine, but trying to evoke something real with care and media literacy. Creativity comes from the mind more than the hands. Directors often never touch the camera. Photographers don’t invent the light. Storytellers retell old things. The medium isn’t the point. Whether it comforts the disturbed, disturbs the comfortable, or just makes someone feel less alone is.

    We already live with worse everyday: violent media kids access too young, porn desensitization, social media anxiety and status games, short-form attention destruction, radicalizing music, beauty contests and reality TV that commercialize bodies and manufacture narratives people love to hate. AI is another tool in that mess, not the unique apocalypse. Infighting over it mostly distracts from the platform holders and big companies who profit either way.

    I spent time in academic art circles in Vienna and did commercial 3D and illustration work years ago. Back then the academic and professional side was often more open about adapting new tools and approaches than people outside expected. It’s almost funny—most would assume the trained, institutional world would be the rigid and elitist one. In the end a lot of self-taught internet artists turned out to be the more prideful and gatekeeping. Less accepting of other ways to do things, more certain their method was the only pure one.

    Experimenting with this stuff once got me treated like I was tainted by black magic inside a friend group. It wasn’t about the work itself. It cooled down later and we stayed friends, but the speed of the spite was real and shocking. I’m tired of the endless squabble about who gets to decide what art is allowed to be. Art is an experience that happens in the head. I’ve seen AI-assisted work that stuck with me emotionally the same way certain moments in nature do—light through leaves, color on a single petal, wind on skin. If it moved someone, it moved them. If it didn’t, it didn’t.

    There’s something beautiful in still being able to sit with all of this without needing to win. In wanting people to keep creating, keep feeling, keep disagreeing without turning it into another war. Even when the tools are messy, even when the flood of slop is real, even when we don’t fully agree—there’s still the chance to leave someone with a little more hope or a little less pain than they arrived with. That still feels worth protecting.

    Money. Hosting a site with thousands of images and users takes a ton of cash. Only reason the big image boards are still alive is due to sponsors, parent companies and ads.

    Basically impossible. Inkbunny requires metadata in such a way that large, multi-part, inpaint-heavy pieces are impossible to upload there. I would need to provide metadata for basically every one of my thousands of inpaints per piece.

    And IB's full of pedo stuff, so I have little desire to be associated with it.

    I also think part of the reason is that people are leaving e621 and moving to e6AI. Speaking from my own experience, before e6AI came along, I was on e621 almost every day. Once e6AI launched, I switched over there, and now I only check e621 about once a month.

    Also, users were upset that AI content was starting to leak into e621. But by shutting down e6AI, they’re just going to get even more of it.

    Like it or not, AI is unstoppable. If it's not this site, someone else will build one, and we'll all just migrate there eventually. And let's not forget, traditional artists will also die out (or evolve) someday; we can't just stay in the Stone Age forever.
