Topic: Digital vs Traditional

Forum: Art    Posted: Jul 2, 2008 11:34 pm

I thought I'd chime in too: If it's a personal commission of my characters etc, I don't mind digital or traditional (in fact, I think digital coloring tend to be more attractive these days with all the filters and effects Photoshop offers). But if it...
Topic: Mature content?

Forum: Writing    Posted: Jun 21, 2008 7:46 pm

I think the violence is fine, as for the mild sexual content. But I'm always a bit sensitive over whether yaoi/yuri should be labeled mature. I think a simple question would be: do we want 13 years olds to know all about yaoi/yuri etc? I dunno, ...

This is an interesting thread, how did I miss it for the first time O.o It seems intuitive that a good book or a good movie is one that stands up to crits, that provokes crits, have depth etc... but, in truth, I think different stories appeal to diff...

Nice forum. Did you set it up from scratch by yourself, or is it part of some existing site (like a Yahoo Group thing)? The overall design layout is quite good, but could use some more graphics etc to make the whole thing more interesting and attenti...

Ah, the good days of creativeness (muse). My "muse" have been going on and off repeatedly recently like a chugging ol engine, unlike the long period of euphoric inspiration I could feel long ago.

Is anyone having any new breakthrough, any new events in your writing life, things to share with everyone (just to keep the thread going)?

I dunno, personally, I think improvements are not so much on what other topic/medium we should go into (that can be done leisurely just for the fun of experimentation), but more on how to bring the current stuffs into a new level. I've visited your g...

I'm a senior at high school, and this is the time we start to discuss (or rather argue) over what senior prank we're gonna do. I need some general poll and opinions on the following pranks:       -Alarm clocks: buy a few doze...

Didn't read the entire essay, but I really agree with where this is going- although personally I haven't seen a lot of people who are under tension while drawing: most art students in school are either uninterested in art whatsoever [which is common ...

Hi Cruffin, I'm havin a bit of a lack-of-idea myself right now. I am quite keen on doing some art-nouveau-ish detailed pencil work now, so a trade would be good. PS. If you are happy to trade, can you send me a message to my inbox? I rarely check the...

I'm not so concerned about the response-thru-popular-work thing, because unlike DA where the pageviews and favs are very obvious and certain artists are just obviously the million-pageviewers, with PD these stats tend to be more hidden. To back my id...

Thinking of it, my fantasy creatures are really just modified elf-like beings which I gave different names. They all have wings or fins, I think. One way to make them original and appealing/believable to the readers is to invent a strong background o...

They should have an "short elves", then "tall elves that look like Legolas", and an "things that you call by other names but who are essentially elves".

Just a side-thought that suddenly struck so I decide to ask: When you submit an art to the galleries on PD or elfwood or whatever, they usually have a box for you to check every concept relevant to your work, like "lanscape, elf, ...
