This clay guy escaped from you! Now he wanders around the world, and every Halloween night he chooses one house or apartment, sneaks in and mercilessly bends everyone inside (just like you bent him long ago), until he turns all his victims into desperate contortionists. 😈 🎃 👻

But on the other hand, if you don't use cookies, then if you send someone a full link to an erotic image, they might not get a window with a warning about NSFW and a request to confirm their age.
Personally, I would combine the settings window with detailed descriptions (as you did a couple of days ago) and the use of cookies as it is now.
Yuni, on the one hand, you are right, of course. Especially since this will require technical changes to the site.
But on the other hand, it can be much more difficult to systematize a large amount of material than to create a Yunipedia section and add new subsections and articles to it one by one (as needed).
For example, if you have materials about L'amouriel, it is much easier to immediately create a "Yunia/Pantheon/L'amouriel" subsection (or hierarchical tags) and collect materials there too, than to display them only in the main timeline, where you yourself can lose them over time.
I mean, I accidentally found a page about the god L'amouriel when I was looking for pictures of archers. And now I would like to read the texts and look at images of other gods, but I just don't know if there is any information on this topic on the site or not yet.
It would be easier for you yourself when all new materials are added in a systematic way. And you can always refresh your memory with the necessary information.
For the development of a new world, the online encyclopedia format is much more suitable than a blog. At the same time, the main blog can continue to display absolutely all new works, regardless of whether they are related to the Yunia project or not.

PS Thank you very much for continuing to improve the site! Sorting by year and best pictures of the year is a very nice and convenient addition.
I agree with you that the current structure of the site can sometimes be confusing and it's often hard to find a specific post, while older posts tend to vanish into oblivion.
I've considered making a wiki-like system many times, but every time it's very hard to think of the structure. I remember the last time I tried dividing Yunia to kingdoms and describing each of them, it ended up being a lot of information, and as usual I got the impression that nobody was impressed... XD
So I'm still on the way to find the right structure that would be helpful instead of feeling unnecessary...
I see with annoyance that often much less talented artists have large and very large audiences on Twitter. They just put as much effort into promoting their art as they do into the art itself: they interact with each other, exchange links and likes, post their art in thematic community channels, and on other sites and social networks, sometimes even hire professionals to promote their art.
And don't judge me too harshly. What if one day I come up with a really good idea, and I won't tell you because I'll be afraid to anger you. ^^

Now I wonder if there is a way to add colors that closely match the original colors of the objects in this old photo.
I find it hard to imagine this image in color, the vintage aesthetic seems so much more appealing...

I know I'm taking a huge risk by saying this... but yes, you are the most desperate attention whore I've ever seen, but you are also the hardest working and most honest whore ever. You give so much.. You work like crazy to get the attention and praise you so desperately need, so it breaks my heart to see that your efforts don't bring you enough attention and pats on the back to satisfy you and make you happy. Unfortunately, I can only give you my own attention. But if you need it, I will do my best to give you as much as I can. And best of all, I won't have to resort to empty flattery, because I have truly loved your art, your attitude and your sense of humor for many years.
Write stories to your images only when you yourself feel the need to write a story.
Or never write at all, if you don't like it.
Don't draw sex images if you feel that you are doing it only because sex images have more views and comments.
Or create only the most kinky contortionist sex art, without wasting time and effort on creating sexless "fillers" just because you are embarrassed by the condemnation of all sorts of prudes.
Develop the world of Yunia, invent its laws and customs, populate it with gods, people and mythical monsters... But only if you yourself are interested in building this new world.
Or leave Yunia as it is and each time create a completely new image, not connected with others by theme, style or characters.
This is your life and your art. You should enjoy what you create. This is the only rule.
You are a talented artist. So if you do what you really like to do, there will always be enough people who will sincerely love your art work.

PS The size of the audience is not directly related to the quality of the work. The world is full of stories about how a not very well-known writer or musician created a great work and got almost zero audience. Then this work was stolen by a famous musician or writer, and so this work became known and popular all over the world.
The quality of the work, the development of characters, the creation of your own interesting world. All of the above in itself will not help to increase the audience. This problem is usually solved by a completely different kind of "art": the art of promoting.
PPS By the way, speaking about the list of characters that another commentator provided. It seems to me, if my memory serves me right, that there are only two Sashas on the site: one of them is a minor character created by some other artist, not Yuni, and the second Sasha is me. But if Yuni suddenly needs to own a character named Sasha, then I am always ready for action. I was flexible enough and looked good when I was young. :D
(Sorry ^^)
It's a shame that I haven't come up with a better idea yet on how to solve the problem.
Sasha M
P.S. Yes, I always wanted to know more about Yunia, too. I really hoped that this story was the beginning of some kind of odyssey. ^^

At the same time, I have no idea how to properly promote art. I just see how artists do it on Twitter with varying success, not always depending on their artistic talent. But I think this is an important matter, because it is absolutely wrong when people do not appreciate the work of an artist or writer not because they do not like it, but simply because they do not know that it exists.

I can only speak for myself. I love your art, but I am only one person, not ten or a hundred people. And the number of your old fans will continue to decrease. This is an objective process. Many years have passed, some of those who were your fans from the very beginning, even died over the years. Like one of my friends. She was your big fan, but cancer does not spare even young people.
So if nothing is done, visitors will gradually leave your site for various reasons.
And yes, if you start promoting your art on big social networks like Twitter to attract a new audience, you will get not only new fans of your talent on your site, but also new stalkers, psychopaths and just rude people. And such people can be in the management of the social network on par with quite adequate people. You know this..
A great example with Natalie Mars, whom I really love as a performer and respect as a person. As I heard, she retired much earlier than she planned, because of some really crazy and evil stalker. She was always very level-headed and not at all timid. So she tried to fight, but when the jerk directed his efforts at her friends and loved ones, she gave up.
Every decision has its pros and cons. That's life. It's not just about social networks. It's about absolutely everything.
I'm sorry to hear about your friend passing away at such a young age due to an illness. I'm not sure if I knew her or not, there are many people who never leave comments, so...
As for Natalie Mars, it was shocking to learn that someone could have unauthorized access to her personal contacts. I believed she might be signed with a modeling agency, but seems like she had public accounts on unsafe platforms like FB and IG that expose friend lists to the public without the user's consent... IG even goes as far as suggesting your profile to everyone nearby based on your precise geographic location.
For example, I see that almost everyone who draws both women and femboys creates two separate accounts. But here it's a matter of different user preferences, I think. I haven't seen a single artist banned for femboy art yet, except for individual images that are removed at the request of the copyright holders. Like, pictures of naked Link...
But there are probably many other subtleties that you need to know in order to avoid problems with the Twitter administration and so that people who are potentially ready to appreciate and love your art can find it.
I do not think that you should publish all your works on Twitter. Only those that will appeal to the maximum number of people. You can publish both new and the most popular old works.
Even though you say you've ignored Twitter for years, I see you have some very popular people following you. For example, porn star Jean Hollywood, with hundreds of thousands of followers. ^^

I got a strong intuition that I don't want to participate in that whole alien culture... Perhaps this sentiment might evolve someday - but if that shift happens too late for me to take advantage of Twitter, I will have no regrets.

You didn't answer, so I'm not sure if you just didn't read my comments or have reasons not to return this picture to the site.
If the second option, then please just delete this comment. So that I get it and stop begging! ^^
🎨 The Model
Please don't delete pictures just because they are imperfect, in your opinion. Maybe just hide them somewhere on the site... Maybe try hiding them as super kinky pictures, and even below them... So that only true fans of your work could get to the "bad takes" and unfinished sketches. A kind of additional materials.

Yuni, I noticed the changes you made to the site. I hope you keep them, I think they are very convenient.
Could you also add a "recently added" section to the site? I mean, when you add some of your older works to the site, they don't appear in the Newest works section. At least that's how it was with the Alexander and Bagoas picture...
Sasha M
PS And it would also be nice to have a general Comments section on the site. For comments that are not related to a specific picture, like this one.

( I usually use quotes when I write "AI" because this software is as similar to intelligence as, for example, an abacus is similar to Archimedes).
I'm very glad to hear that you take backups seriously. This is something I know very well myself, so I can fully appreciate it. Well... The problem is that if one day you decide not to publish your art anymore, it makes no difference to me whether you have backups or not. Then it will be only for you and those of your friends with whom you want to share. ^^
Also, after each shutdown of the site, you do not restore all your images. :(
There was a naked version of this picture, now it's gone
yuni.us/spunky-twister
For me personally, it was a kind of diptych, one incomplete without the other.
There were some amazing golden shower pictures. They're gone too.
I couldn't find the great old line art of Alexander and Bagoas because it wasn't on the site either. So, every time your site disappears it's destructive and very frustrating. I'm sure it's bad for the site's user base as well.
Yep. Over a thousand people viewed it and only a couple of comments. That's a pretty normal ratio for Twitter and YouTube too. Imagine how many unique users actually viewed older pictures with dozens of comments, like this one yuni.us/hey-trapper

As for me, I'm sorry I didn't comment. But I was really busy and then I just didn't get the story, so I didn't know what to say. But the thing is, I'm not a very sophisticated person, so first of all, I love your original, wildly imaginative erotic/acrobatic art.
If I were to use the titles of your works as an example, I'm more of a fan of "The Vortex of Inhuman Stretchiness", "Humpy Dumpy", "The House of the Rising Fist", "THE CROSS OF THE BEAST" and many, many more like that than "The God of the Valley".
And yes, I'm not sure, but it seems to me that when you choose a subject, composition and poses for the image, AI in some ways limits your creative imagination.
Of course, it's up to you to decide, but it's really frustrating to know that at any moment, all your art for many years can just disappear...
AI is the last thing to limit my creativity - I never share pictures that I'm not proud of myself. I have quite high standards, so when I post something that means I truly enjoyed it and wanted to share it with others :3
About the website's ups and downs, I've been doing this since 2005 because I often develop the feeling of extreme disappointment in everything. This feeling does not go away until I completely erase everything from everywhere. But it's important to notice that the content always comes back after a couple of days. In my entire life, I have never deleted any of my projects entirely - I currently have at least 6 different backups of everything I have ever worked on, 2 of which are updated multiple times per day, and 4 others that are updated once a week in turn. Therefore, even if I accidentally delete anything crucial, I can retrieve it from a backup made 2-3 weeks ago. If I delete anything from the web, I ensure it is very simple to upload again - this entire website, for example, takes only two minutes to fully restore, and all of the comments have offline backups updated several times each day :D
I recently had the impression that nobody visited this site anymore, but yesterday I tried adding proper view counters that exclude bot traffic, and only count unique visitors, so I discovered that "The God of the Valley" has been actually viewed by over 1000 different people! This was quite an encouraging revelation :D So at least the site doesn't seem as abandoned as I thought, there are still real people stopping by... So now that I know for sure that there's still plenty of visitors looking at my stuff, I can feel a bit more confident about continuing my work here ;3
