Final Entry




I want to thank the following people for their comments in the thread as it seems like the screenshot and fanart forum is dead these days.

Dark Ether, VexXxa , Larissa , Caemgen , Mardun , Rowrsie , Johnnykat , Lord Goat , ChristopherRobin , airhead , Powerstream and Juggertha

Thanks for the comments guys and maybe you can join in on a little mock poll with me to see what your favorite five were. All in all there were 71 entries and I have a very big job in front of me in picking the winners here. Seeing what you guys vote in may help me decide.

You guys are all cool in my book

Ahhh, so it's not just me who has thought this place has been getting quieter and quieter lately???

I'll look over all your entries soon and give my thoughts on the top 5 just so long as you don't let them influence your judging too much! You know your characters better than anyone else so you should be the one to really choose which best represents them.

Yeah there doesn't seem to be anything happening here these days. This was the kind of thread that used to have people talking or at least interested. But not now it seems...

OK thanks man and I won't let it interfere with my personal voting process, I just wanted to see what you guys thought about the entries is all.

With the sheer amount of art you have in this thread, I don't think many people really know what to say. Some might be jealous, some might be enamored, some might disapprove, others might want to follow suit, but the quantity of the pieces here is drowning people within. It's easy to care for one or two pieces, hard to care about a sea.

The art forum really isn't so much about the artists anymore, as it is about the collectors these days. While there's nothing wrong with that, perhaps that's one reason why the forum feels so different now. The golden age of the art forum is dead, long live the atomic age.

I'm jealous, enamored and thinking about following suit! I still don't get what the disapproval is all about but *shurg*

But yeah, it's easier to really dig in and comment on a couple of pieces rather than a whole collection at once.

Well we do seem to have more active collectors than when I first got here... Initially it was just kind of Feral Cat who was active and TA being pretty quiet on the new arts front... Now we have them, me, Attache, Airhead, etc etc etc. Are we drowning out the artists?? I sure hope not!

But... It seems to me the artists are a little less active in the producing department. And when they do produce and post it I think there are some who are reluctant to post these days because of the fear of saying the wrong thing and starting drama.


Ah well, if nothing else at least the costume redesign thread usually has new posts to scan when I'm bored.

Well. For fun, here's my fave five:

#14
#30
#49
#59
#70

I can't seem to get #33 to load, incidentally.

This thread is completely full of amazing artwork; it was a blast to browse. By no means was it easy to choose a top five. There's EASILY another five in here that I would probably flip-flop with if I had to choose over again.
