Making money from art is not vulgar. Art is a commodity. It makes people feel something. It raises the greater sum of human happiness. It increases the gaiety of the nation. It has a value. -John Allison

i think I like Arachno Capitalist - the imagery attached is just so strong. A giant sider in a tophat and vest w/ pocketwatch - parading down the street demanding freedom from taxes

Pick one and let's get a move on here, folks. 

Do we need a poll?  Because I really don't want to find myself typing "the artist formerly known as arachnocapitalist" on a regular basis.

Okay.  I guess it's official, since there's an avatar now? 

Although I liked the monopoly tycoon spider-in-top-hat image, too.

Oh man, I have a new name. Also- all references to arachnocapitalist and A-CAP are complete nonsense to anyone who reads the archives.

After the collapse of society, the prolonged dark ages, the rebirth of technology, and the renewed vigor of archeology, this thread will confuse the scientists of the mutated hordes, and cause them to view A-Cap as some manner of trickster god.

Congrats!
