Hey guys! Before we get this guild all awesome we need some ideas on what sort of things can go down here.

Just for shits I'll add a pole about whether or not you have a male avatar and are female, vice versa, or your avatar represents your gender =)

This post will be edited to show ideas that might be used!


Recommendations:
-Weekly sketch topics
-Contests
-Intro sub-forum
-On-going comic conversations
-"Critique Corner"
-Tutorial sections
-Interviews with artists
-AST Clone

How about something like the Art conversation guild has? where you reply to each other through drawing?

I definitely like the idea of an on-going comic-ish/conversation-through-drawings sort of thing, like Libra said. I'm sure I can come up with some other idears too, but not tonight. I'm brain-dead right now. xD

The poll should have mule options too wink

Female and Male AVA / Male IRL
Female and Male AVA / Female IRL

And if people want us to get picky enough we can have gender queer or similar options XD;;

But idea suggestions... I like the idea of themes, a critique corner... uh... oh man I had so many ideas D: Maybe a tutorials section for people who want to see how others do things? A thread for art shop, contest, and deviantart links and the likes (mmm whorey)... might go ahead and start that now... we obviously need a link to the AST itself. And of course not everything has to be art because man we just go on and on about random stuff... probably just a chit chat thread I guess.

As for the banner, what if that were a contest every so often? smile So that way it can get updated every so often and peeps can have the chance of having their creation up as the banner? And maybe letting people use any of the banners entered in their sig/profile? :3

Geh I'm exhausting myself! I'll post more ideas as I get em.

Banner contests sound fun and a tutorial section would be amazing!

Art conversations would be fun as well. But that's happened in the AST before now. Maybe we could take it to a new random level.

Duckie hit a lot of the main major threads that I could think of. I'll have to put some thought into this.

I seriously recommend using the art convesations guild for that. It's moving so slow right now it hurts. And we can advertise to their members and wrangle in more for this guild. Swap a bit.


But for here, we need a picture post of our own.

And maybe advertise some other art guilds. The abr guild is hurting right now too. (lookin out for muh peeps D; )

* A cosplay thread. Where every week you have to draw your character in a different cosplay. xD That'd be fun. (I wouldn't mind organizing that. )

* An idea that duckie came up with before, a Gender bender thread. Where we'd have to be the opposite sex or something. ionno. 8U

* A meme thread. Just to do a bunch of meme arts. Likeee.. for example.. On fearsome oekaki one was to draw your favorite my little pony in anthro form. That was fun and a bunch of people did it.
Or do a bunch of memes from DA. :B

* An introduction page. Where you'd put a post to introduce yourself, your likes, this and that. Maybe do an intro for your RL self then your avatar.
And it'd be so we don't chat in the thread, just post our intros so that you wouldn't have to fish for the pages to look at peoples intros.
Well you would to find the right one, but at least you wouldn't go through mindless chatter to find the intros.

* Perhaps a draw the OC/Avatar/personthing above you thread.

* Perhaps a role playing thread. But through pictures. You don't need to battle like the ABR, it could be anything you RP.
Well. Anything but sex. xDDD

That's all I can think of ATM.

I really like this idea!

The only thing I can add to this is maybe have a place for doing collaborations?

Perhaps also do like theme weekend once a month where a theme is picked by popular vote and everyone tries to draw something within that theme. For example something like an Ancient Civilization theme and everyone draws his or her avatar wearing something or discovering something, or just something that would be found in the civilization of their choice.
I guess that could be considered more of a contest though, wouldn't it?

omg. Kitsune gave me an idea.

lol um.
How bout an art manipulation thread? xD
Where you could post a pic, and tell people to do whatever they want with. (not claiming it as their own) but like, Draw a different outfit on the person, draw them with err...horns for example, draw a magikarp smacking them in the face. xDDD
And of course even if you manipulate the pic, you wouldn't claim it as yours, since it's not. omg that'd would be fun.

-Draws a magikarp raping everyones face on whatever they post- rofl

Great ideas guys! biggrin I really like the collab idea Gensei.

Faggy; I've been known to "edit" peeps' art in the AST (by "peeps' art" I mean one of Noodle's XD; ) so I LOVE that idea. <3 <3 <3
PostPosted: Sun Aug 03, 2008 11:41 pm


LOL. I can see us just totally screwing up eachothers art. xDDD

"OH YEAH? WELL! -puts whore make-up on Dai- D<"

omg. And I could do a naked (censored) pic of Faggy, and I can be like DRAW ON SOME COOL CLOTHES FOR FAGGY. C:
Faggy dress up! x3 -squees-

SHOOT. I just had another idea but I forgot it. : |
-thinks-

EDIT:
Maybe we can have a LAJ thread too.
Cause like, I can't color so I just do line art, but I'd love to see more of my art colored by friends.
And some people are good at coloring but not line art.
:B

I was thinking, we have a clone of the AST so when you post in the PP forum you can post the same here except you can chat about it in the thread here while just having art in the main forum. (does that make sense?) @_@
PostPosted: Mon Aug 04, 2008 9:36 am


A section for more risque art? *shrugs* I dunno how many peeps would have an issue actually seeing Criss butt or boob-licks so often but I have to admit we get our fair share of them lol And if anything, it may just be nice to corral it all into one location for the sake of those at work or with family... or for those who only want to look at that ninja

Then again I don't want to get too complicated and have things so organized that they just end up confusing *coughdeviantartcough*

Someone stop me before I Virgo this place to death.

noodle: i know what you mean D: i feel bad for not posting lately, i really should ;__; i love that place. But it would be an interesting thing to do here as well i mean. If a thread was made in here we could link *like you said* in the first post of it. People would then know where the idea came from and if they want to, go join that guild to help liven things up.
