We are not all equally talented, whether it's writing, drawing, sewing, singing, etc., etc., etc. The respect and love shown to Adam by fans is quite sincere in most cases regardless of the level of talent. Personally I don't care for the photoshops, especially when his face gets moved to another body. However I see the dedication and affection it takes to make a roomful of dolls, spend hours drawing and/or painting, assembling a collage, editing a video or writing an essay. And I will confess I'm waiting for someone to do an album of the animal/Adam combos. I love this place and am glad that there are those whose talent is collecting all the news (as well as "not news") and that they share it here. This is my go-to place for everything Adam. I want it all - and I want it NOW! But if you don't, as has been said many, many times here, "Scroll is your friend."

Mostly I agree -- I am not a fan of putting Adam's head on other bodies or that sort of thing. But I realize that the people who do it, do it with love and passion. So I am fine if they want to have a bit of fun. >> I do not like bananas but am happy for other people to enjoy them --- as long as they do not insist I eat them too. Every now and then (and I mean rarely) I see an Adam photo edit that is gorgeous -- thoughtful and beautifully done. Even more rare is a great Adam macro but there have been a few that have made me smile and I recall one that made me laugh out loud. Most rare of all is an Adam illustration that incorporate heroic imagery that I approve of. There was one Adam as a Samurai illustration that we true to his spirit and I adore. I agree about the good macros, and I love augenpoesie's stuff! and animated's art, too! Love this edit by augenpoesie! I LOVE Augenpoesie and Animated. They are both such artists. All their art is saved on my computer, and I have supported them passionately throughout the years. Animated's art was my avi here for a long time, and still is my profile's background on my Tumblr blog dedicated to Adam.

The only photoshops that bug me are his head on some muscle guy's body! Just no! To me it is saying Adam's body isn't good enough. The animal ones were cute the first few times but now there are just too many. OFC, Adam liked the meerkat one so much he put it on his own Facebook page. Love artsy ones though, like augenposie and animated do and the funny macros!

Yes!! I don't think of their work as photoshop - it's ART! And I look forward to whenever they choose to share. And I also look forward to your essays, aleks. They are works of art, too.

Whether I personally like a piece of fan art or not, and no matter how skillfully or ineptly it has been produced, I always appreciate the creativity, good intentions, and love of Adam that inspired it. The only Adam art I can't condone is art produced with intent to denigrate or hurt Adam, and/or any segment of his fanbase (like the "sparkle cow" stuff a few years back).

*fyi, this is my wtf glare *reserved for all the shitty photoshops of Adam - nekkid Adam, Adam the chef, Adam the lumberjack, Adam the Medieval Knight, Adam the Samurai, Adam the Santa frikkin Claus; Adam's head in a pearl, Adam's head in an oyster...; Adam paired up with various animals - horses, tigers, unicorns, meerkats, rabbits and cats; fan art with fan's name stamped all over it, all crappy fan art basically; Adam dolls; double Adam, triple Adam, multiple Adams in general; and fake gold Xmas trees with photos of Adam pinned to it... they are my personal fandom hell PS/// Nice avi, 4EverAdam That's kinda harsh. While there are some pieces that truly step way over the line of good judgement or even decent taste, most are done with good intentions and out of love for Adam. Would it be better if he was ignored and had no avid fans? Fan art, fan fiction, etc is just part of the uber fan package.
