Then you're using it wrong!! I had made a post in... the collab forum lounge, I think it was... to try to get some peoples in a g+ hangout and share flash/drawing (and/or anim) tips and tricks. No one responded (I cried), but I still think it's a good idea. I know *some* people are against anything google, but it's better than stickam 'cuz the screens are bigger and you can actually SEE what everyone else is doing. We should hang sometime... just you and me! *wink*

and anyone else that's interested :)

I hardly ever log in to my google+... Guess I should fix that....
And I'd hang today, but... busy and all... Perhaps tomorrow?, wait no... busy then.... and got a thing for my next role playing game on saturday... so sunday?

Just use flash. It gives the crisp clean lines you love without the hassle of dealing with illustrator's tempramental baggage.

Man if you've got a crappy pc like mine flash's pen tool crashes more than a teen on a learner's car license. I love flash I really do, but the pen tool isn't one of its strong suits. With illustrator there are built in thick to thin options for the pen tol and some wacom tools even for when you're inking with a mouse instead of a pen and you wanna save some time. Also the blend tool has come in to use a lot when making patterns within inking recently. Idk I'd recommend illustrator over flash for inking, but yes its a bit harder than flash in the beginning to learn

Really? Front paged both of ThePsychoSheep's madness pieces? One of them isn't even a finished piece, it was just a WIP for the second piece.

Happy madness day everyone! Gotta say... the quality of submissions this year is crazy good!!! I'm impressed! :D

Hey guys, I'm not a regular here in the art forums but I'd like some help if anyone's interested. Please don't kill me if I'm breaking some rule by asking for assistance.

Are there any confident artists up here who would be willing to make a logo/album cover for our NewGrounds-born hip hop band Problem Child? Of course you'd get full credit on the album and everything. I know some artists up here but I won't call them out because I'd like someone to actually want to do this for us, so if you're up for making some art for an up-and-coming hip hop group, please hit me back either here or in a pm. I love you.

Is anyone interested in joining an art collab that deals with the horrors of war? War scenes and scenarios and the like. I wanted to get a general feel for the idea before I posted a thread for it.

and hello to everyone by the way.

This collab would be much better than previous engagements.

promise

Sounds good to me, I'd certainly try and get a piece into that if you did come to make it.


I said no to drugs but they just wouldn't listen.

Question of the Day: Let's say Luis or someone else starts up another Sketchbook Tour. How interested would you be in participating? Do you feel like that the modern day NG community could pull off what it did in the 2006-2009 Sketchbooks? I'm just curious if this type of project could ever be revived...

I would. I feel like it'd get a good amount of activity.

I would love to participate in it, but I just don't think there would be enough of a following as the previous years did.
I was happy to have made it in the last tour.

Hey, guys. I'm not sure if anybody really remembers me, but I used to participate around the forums a decent bit. It's been about a year since the last time I really tried to be active, though, and I just haven't been on this site much.
How has everything around these parts been lately?
