No kidding...hopefully once people see the art portal is being moderated just like the others, they'll cut the crap out. last thing we need is a portal full of spam instead of quality user postings.

Apparently so.... "Art by Splurda ... Scouted by Maximus"

That was fast. #;-}>

i like the work i've seen so far although its a very mixed bag atm! im curious if anyone thinks im good for a bitta scouting? feels like it could take ages simply waiting by the wayside...

Response to Art Portal!? 2009-06-21 11:18:52


Is anyone else disappointed by the scouting system? I don't want to take responsibility if the person I scout is too lenient and scouts someone who doesn't deserve it or if they scout stolen art. And now, I've lost my scouting privileges because the person who originally scouted me has been banned.

I think it could work, but it currently has a few flaws. They could be teething problems.

I CANT BELIEVE I WAS AWAY WHEN THE ART PORTAL OPENED. I'm.... so sad D:

Not really.

Response to Art Portal!? 2009-06-21 11:34:14


It's been three days since I submitted my art, and no scouting yet. So I'd just like to know if I'm not good enough or anything like that, because I'm getting a bit impatient, and I don't like waiting in the dark. Here's my art btw.


You can't know what you don't know if you can only use yourself as a reference point.

Im not spamming, I dont care if this comment gets removed or anything, i just want to get noticed.

So if any of you are reading this, please look at my wesker art.

Thank you,

I admit, you've got skill to make stuff like that in MS paint. But let's face it, MS paint sucks. I suggest drawing on paper or on another program like Flash, Fireworks, or Photoshop.

Response to Art Portal!? 2009-06-21 14:30:20


I think sketches would be allowed. As for the category, it depends on the content of the sketch.

Yes, they'd probably be allowed, but the category is debatable.

Sorry about double-posting, but I forgot to quote.

If you see art that is stolen, a photograph (not of a piece of art), or illegal, please report it via the "Report Abuse" link below the image.

how do you decide whether its illegal?

Make review button available SOOON *WHINE WHINE* lol I want to check to see if there are responses to the art I have reviewed and there is no way in hell to search for them all. *Cryyyyy

lol Just wanted to keep that message out there and hopefully get other whiners to join me. Don't know if whining will speed up the process but it can't hurt I say. lol

Response to Art Portal!? 2009-06-21 16:19:38


no it's not going to replace DeviantArt, but I'm definitely in love with the art portal. I've only scouted one person that I was lucky enough to find right at the very top of the unscouted artwork page and he's done well so far! I've been submitting my art slowly and it's such a rush waiting to see what overall rating it settles at! That being said, I guess the art portal isn't safe from zero-bombers either. People will vote 0 whether the picture is good or not just to lower the rating. I've seen some amazing pictures jump frrom 1st page in highest score all the way to 4th page. I had one of mine on the first page yesterday with a 4.6 and woke up this morning to find it had jumped all the way to oblivion with a 4.2.. I'm not usually one to care about "highest" anything or "most popular". DA has enough trouble with that stuff but it does kinda suck that people seem to bomb everything with 0s if it's got a higher ranking than theirs or their friend's. Guess that's the way of NG...

It seems to me that the quality of the Art Portal is decreasing already. Even a few hours ago, most of the stuff there was great. Now, people are submitting crap like this:
http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/leo56 00/comic-strip-complete-silence

Who decides to unscout someone? If it is only the staff, I can see you guys quickly becoming overwhelmed with the task. There should be some user input.

I saw that earlier. I was wondering if someone was going to report it or not, but technically they didn't break the rules or anything so nothing can really be done right?

Actually, MS Paint is fine for making one of the 5 categories of art allowed in the art portal: Pixel Art.

Instead of making semi-good looking sketch type art with MS Paint, if that dude instead learned how to make pixelated works of art, he'd be golden.

We're turning into DeviantArt...But orange.
Please, don't add a lit portal; work on user page features, which are more often used, and highly overlooked.

Response to Art Portal!? 2009-06-21 20:03:39


I know the Art Portal is new and as with anything things need to be worked out, but being unscouted because of someone above you seems a little unfair. I got unscouted, but I quite sure I did nothing wrong, there is nothing wrong with anything I've submitted or done. So I'm sure it must be that the person that scouted me got kicked from the portal, and in return so am I. It's a little unfair that I submit good art and abide by the rules and get unscouted for his (or someone else he scouted's) misbehavior. I've seen posts from others that feel the same way.
