Should I post anymore fan-art? :o

Post by Predabot » Thu May 05, 2005 3:21 pm

Since the interest on this board has really been so low, I just don't see the point in it.

It IS quite understandable tho, since I primarily do desktops/photoshop work, and colorisations, that it doesn't really excite that many people off their nickers. :o

But still, it would be nice to see if someone would like to have a look at it, makes me feel all proud. :)

So, should I give it another go?

I'm soon done with the Dark Ages pics that I've got, and theoretically soemone might want to see them, but is it really any point? I'm thinking that maybe Seibertron.com is feasible.

It can't hurt to just post it. Okay, I don't always look in the Fanart section, but that's 'cos there's rarely any new art there, so I just wait for it to build up. There's nothing to stop you posting art on another site though - perhaps there's a more art-orientated TF site out there that gets all moist for the pics fans post. If I had the time, I've got piles of pics I could post here. Then again, I've seen stuff online that blows my scribbles away (I'm no slouch though).
Perhaps there should be a gallery option here that isn't hid in the topic menus - then I may click on it more often.

Post it.

That, actually, would be the best reason to post it.

Muchas gracias to Mob for the Sig, proving why he's called 'King'.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.

Well. I'll give it a try, as a matter of fact, I think I'll post everything I've got right now. Methinks it's time to saturate the board a bit.

I ussually post one heck of a lot of art on a site named he-man.org (Denyer frequents this one at times), wich is indeed a place wich gets all moist about the art wich is posted, very art-focused. But that's mainly cause most of the people who post, are friggin incredible.

the thing is, with art, I feel ppl just like to view it, and comment if they really feel the need.

Hence why art gallerys are quiet places ;) :p

Let's saturate the board!
With ART obviously.

I'd have to scan all my stuff and then save it to a disc and THEN take it to my other PC (this one) to post it. Frankly I'm too lazy and frequently busy to get around to this. Everyone in my house is away on holiday next week, so I might be tempted to run back and forth with discs of art without any interruptions.

Anyway, we need more artwork and photos to make it worthwhile, so I reckon we should all post at least one piece of art each this week (even if your drawing skills stink). Then there'll be something to look at.
And Pred? Post them ALL!

Predabot, I just say post them still, regardless of what happens.

I admit, from my experience, sometimes people feel to busy, or simply don't feel like commenting for other various and valid reasons. As an artist, it's just part of the process I think, sometimes some particular pieces hit the nail, other times they don't.

Otherwise, that's why practice and experimentation are always good! :D

Anyway, you've had more than 30 views, so people can't be too uninterested. Perhaps they don't feel the need to post a reply 'cos either they'd feel dumb adding their 'Nice work fella' to all the others there may already be, or that the pictures are so awesome that there's nothing else to comment. Except 'Nice work fella', of course.
As long as you get some views it means people are still checking the pics out, and surely THAT means it's still worth posting them.

Worry when NO-ONE takes a look...

I know it's not artwork, but I'm still too lazy to find out the drawings on my laptop. This is all I have on this particular PC.
Hey! My first posted image! And it worked. Now I MUST find out my stuff.

I suppose you might be right Autobloke, and get right to posting those pics, you. Don't be lazy. :lol:
