You are underwater, being hunted by a leviathan; a sinking gypsy boat passes by, only giving you enough time to grab one of the assorted goodies inside. You are wearing a diving suit.

Journal Entry: Mon Jul 6, 2009, 6:52 PM
:bulletgreen: Game Art community representatives: ^ForksOfTheSalad and ^technographer
:bulletgreen: Game Development Art: Gallery - News - Forum - #GameArt
:bulletgreen: The Community Relations Team


Early today, our artist, friend, and inspiration, =Inqy, passed away.

Inqy had an obvious excitement about her work and was always willing to share, what she could, about what she was up to. She was one of my first experiences on becoming a moderator here; a genuinely bright and interesting person, who always cheered #GameArt up on entry and was always welcomed with many :hug:s ( and sometimes less appropriate things :eyes: ). She was a key part in helping start the chatroom up and forming our little #GameArt gang, and has stuck with us up to this point; and perhaps still is. Sometimes I wondered if she ever slept because she was there so much.

It distresses me that someone can be gone so immediately, and that I didn't get to say goodbye, or thank her for being her before she left us; but perhaps she is out there somewhere and can still get the message. So thank you, Inqy ( you'll always be "Inqy" to me ), and farewell - though we will always keep a place for you.

Technographer! I found a really good site that explains a lot of gamedev creation which is here: [link]

I think it'll be good if we can spread it around or something as it answers all my questions and doubts about the industry C:

Hey there; I know I should probably ask someone else, and not bother you, but I have a deviant who has joined, and has some great stuff, but doesn't really know how to get much recognition; could you help/point me towards someone who can? :D Thanks in advance.

The first section of ^Jules1983's news article @ [link] covers one of the best ways to get more involved (and noticed) - 'comment to get comments'. It will take a long time to become recognized if you don't recognize others.

I'm sure you're aware of the scale of dA (11 new users have joined in the past 50 seconds); there's a huge sea of users and most of them want people to check out what they do (why else would you join dA?) - hooking up with other users, talking and making friends, meeting their friends is likely the best way to expand both the exposure to your own work and your appreciation for the work of others. What dA has to offer cannot be fully experienced with a selfish mindset.

Aside from posting work, comments/critiques, +watching and +faving, and checking the forums and chat out; participating in contests, both official dA contests and member-run contests can be a useful way to gain exposure - even if you don't win, you figure at least someone has to take a look to determine that you didn't win, right? And as long as you've created a new piece of art, you really didn't "lose" anything, anyway.

So that's somewhere to get started. Give and you will receive. Sometimes you might not receive right back, especially with more popular artists who are generally too swamped with messages to reply to all of them and visit every gallery; but if you find people who are in a similar level of exposure as yourself, you can help each other grow as artists and become more noticed, in addition to meeting some great and interesting people (we've got a fair amount of those here).
=DigitalFear:iconDigitalFear: Jun 28, 2009, 10:28:47 PM
Thanks very much for this reply; the longest and most informative I've ever been given! I will endeavour to educate myself and my uncle on these, and I'll inform you on how well we've fared.

Thanks again, so much! :)
