ca.org sketcher

[John]

Since sketcher has turned into a commercial product, the free copy we used was taken down from the forums. Sciboy set up a room for CA thats paid for for this month.
The new room is online now at http://sketcher.artgrounds.com/conceptart


Hope to see you guys in sketcher.

[edit by sciboy]

READ THE FAQ FROM BEGINNING TO END BEFORE ENTERING! Most trouble that happens is due to people not reading the darn thing.

[Dile_]

Ohh yeah! this is really great John!

and thanks a lot sciboy for paying of this month! I make sure to support it
when I have set up a paypal account :)

~Dile

[Slash]

That was fun! (although i'm not gonna post my sketch here.. kids might look.)

[0shade0]

'moved to tears' I love you!

[Stark]

Yeah, read the FAQ! I made the mistake and erased a ton of kick ass work by eriboss, sciboy, and others... :( But it really is fun and cool to see others create in real time.

[chaosrocks]

a little later

left is eriboss
brown smudge up top is crash
come play its fun!

[asoir]

collabbed with kicek, that guy is awesome.

[chaosrocks]

random page grab 3:07 EST

[ElvisMcVegas]

are there rules about penises and vaginas?

[John]

Yes. Unless there are kids around, there is no penii or vaginas to be drawn. If there are kids drawing furries tho, both must be combined on one person.

[Slash]

Ok, against my better judgement i'll post the sketch i made in the first session..

[Dile_]

That is sooo awesome Slash :D

something happend to it...

[0shade0]

thanks chaos :)
really love left top and left middle.
and my crappy little doodle.

[Farvus]

Cool one yAdam. Here's my sf interior.

[Uziel]

First try out of sketcher...
2-20-07
My doodles upper right corner. + davi work lower left corner + working together with asoir on the surfer if i remember correctly.

[sciboy]

Just a tip, if you want to dump the entire canvas type /save
It'll make a PNG file which if you want to post here better be converted to JPEG.
Also good for those art pieces that you've been noodling on for hours and don't want to lose in any case, just /save regularly.

[Stark]

I wanted to save some of John and crash's stuff... They doodle some cool things...

[chaosrocks]

actaully I grab ..but thats just easier from my MAC
random grab 11:30EST WEd 2/21/07

the ship is mine
rumour says the green guy upper left is Davi's
green batman look slike eris it was here when I got on
blue face and red face at the bototm are coen

Im not sure on the rest

[Coen]

Thanks chaosrocks, on the last cap in your post, the face at the bottom right corner is from Asoir, and the green guy upper left is from Davi indeed.

Here's a cap from a bit later than the last one, I'm really not sure of who made what, Spongie and I made the skeletors thing (actually, what's your nick on CA Spongie?).

-Hey Chaosrocks, somehow I can't get on it after the last disconnect, it keeps saying 'connection refused'.. any idea?

[Seer]

Same here Coen. Connection refused.

[Coen]

I guess no one can connect now, since I still see all of the names in the 'users online' list (including me and Seer).

[luxun]

Yeah i get that too, maybe theres a max amount of people that can be online at the same time?

[chaosrocks]

except that a bunch of the peopl it say are on....aren't
dunno dunno

c

[seth1]

Would it be possible to make a paypal account for sketcher so we can donate to it?

[Neon]

Coen: Spongie. Thats me.

That skelettons were fun! Damn Im dying to sketch more stuff. Alone its not the same... but its nice to hear that they didnt kick only me out. :}

[voraz]

i tryed to access it but kept receiving the message connection refused, came here to ask if somebody could help but I see it seems to be a generall problem! :dur:
too bad, I'll try some other time...

[Chronologic]

Yea, it didn't work for me.

[sciboy]

Try again tomorrow fella's.
The entire ArtGrounds.com site is down, but knowing Thor it won't be long before it'll be back up. He has his birthday to celebrate today so give him a day to get to it.

[Coen]

It's working!

:D

[Coen]

Here's some random cap in case no one else saved one (otherwise I guess there'll be a more finished one), some great work at it! Bottom left corner is from Seer, the green guy next to it from Davi, bottom right guy from Sciboy, the little face in the middle at the very left is from Spats I think, and the face in the middle is made by Toaster (hope I got it all right, this is all I remember :D)

[asoir]

had to post this one, super awesome piece at the top but not sure who its by

[foggle]

hmm, i installed the jtablet plugin, but wevery time i use my tablet with it, my computer crashes horribly. anyone else had this problem or is it just me?

[chaosrocks]

random cap friday

present drawings include toasty eri, ostrander, John, Kicek, fly and a couple I couldn't ID

[Zord]

I installed the plug-in and the sketcher still doesn't work, "connection refused" it says. Help?

[sciboy]

Open port 22000 on your router/firewall

[Seer]

had to post this one, super awesome piece at the top but not sure who its by

I might've found a clue. It looks like a slice of toast.

[chaosrocks]

yep it was toaster alright...he's on a turban kick...he did the yellow one on the next cap screen too...

Wooot! It's back. Now if I can only get it to not disconnect me :(

Great art, guys. Love to see the doodles you all come up with. Now I gotta re-attach my Wacom to this computer so I can join the fun again ^_^

[Dile_]

I "cleaned" it up.. but I thought that I should make a print screen first..
sorry if I deleted any work that was under progress.. Noone replied and no one was drawing ... only two random users on..

[Neon]

Its the same like before.
It says we are in but we aren't.
Its :dead: again...

:nohope:

[Noë]

Oh.. Okay :)
I was already getting very unhappy about me not being able to get in, even installed the newest Java and restarted my computer for it.. But I guess you all have the same problem then.

I'll remove my post in the sketcher thread in the support forums.

'connection refused'.

[Dile_]

same, and Harold pawlack and Spongie have been "on" ( i know that pawel is offline though so its a bug ) for about 8 hours now.

[Flynn]

its working

[Slash]

Indeed it is.

Had some fun, but i noticed some quirks in the program. (or just me being too stupid to figure out the tools properly..) When i was at a high zoom level the drawing tool was very unaccurate. (hence the face suckage.) Very fun to watch the guys go at it, its an inspiring environment to doodle in! come on in and try it some time!

[Stark]

I'm so going to rape that chick man...that was awesome watching. Along with some of kicek's stuff too...

I agree, everyone should come in and have fun. If not for drawing, then watching some highly regarded guys duke it out

[Flynn]

tonight was indeed fun ;) keep it up slash ;)
I propose that since this program is now actually being paid for (had to happen sometime thanks CA!!!) that perhaps some kind of snapshot system be done?

Like mebe a screencapture every hour-30 mins? Posted to CA`s site some place for all to see who dont want to wade in? Itl make people more curious :D
Or failing that a way to capture it every couple mins, it would be cool to see a video of all that goes on, but sped up plenty ;)

[sciboy]

Tuesday morning

[Minja]

Uhh... a bunch of us were just in there sketching (bluefruitbowl had a kick ass painting) and some dumbass Taiphan comes in and deleted every layer he could...

So.. is there anything we can do about these dumbasses? He clearly did it on purpose.

[chaosrocks]

frequent screen caps
I guess
don't know any ass repellant

[aefx]

Someone created this earlier, thought I'd screencap it before it got erased.

[bluefruitbowl]

Is there any way to permanently lock the layers? It'd probably be harder for people to troll if they had to erase the whole canvas+four layers by hand...

[Minja]

Yeah good idea

[D.Labruyere]

hehe a co-op I did with Amernazri :) He did the awesome dragon and I did the lame figure on top of it.

[Minja]

Yeah the dragon was pretty cool, and I believe this was right next to it on the left. :)

[Minja]

I have a question, is Sketcher more like Photoshop or more like Painter? I've only ever used photoshop, and must say I like sketcher much more, it seems more fluid and the smudge tool works very well for me.

[Slash]

Then you arent setting up your brushes correctly, cuz photoshop is much more fluid and responsive than sketcher.

Thanks Guy. I got fed up trying to get it to connect last night so I turned the the PC off and went to bed. I came back this morning, read your reply, clicked the link and it works fine thanks. I'll remember to try a re-boot before using it next time. Its a fantastic little app.

I have a question: why is it that they don't put up the sketcher thing on the announcement thing anymore? That's how I got in it.

[shou']

I cannot connect to Sketcher. It states 'connection refused' which is beyond me why it would be. When attempting to log in at different times with a fresh browser on multiple computers the Java applet loads and stops before even initating the first layer.

Would anyone else have the same or similar problem?

The java applet loads for me, but it says 'connection refused' in the status window and then exits. I suppose you could ask Thor - it runs on his server, as I recall.

[magnetos]

it's very nice and all but i think sketcher could use some moderators !!

[Beonarri]

I think it's fine being open. There are some stoopid people who go and draw wang all over the Sketcher space, but I think having moderators on an art thing like Sketcher would be bad.

It start with just removing the giant penises being erased and the creators of them being kicked...then would come the erasing and kicking of people who put cleavage on girls...then would come the erasing and kicking of people who draw in a different styles or draw different subject matter...then Sketcher would be an un-fun place to go.

The capstone of all that would be people saying something like, "Why does Sketcher have moderators?!"

Well... Graffiti really isn't the problem. It's ##$#@ who come in, delete a layer and then run out. If you've been working on something for a while, only to have it vanish due to some #%#@$%'s vandalism, you'd be somewhat upset also.

[Beonarri]

Yeah, I can understand that. But, the point is that you have to take the good with the bad. It isn't out of hand as far as I can tell, whenever I'm in the room, no one else is there aside from Spats, maybe shou, and one or two more.

Besides. You can save by typing " /save " into the the chatbox. So, every so often you can save a copy. I know that won't help much if you still had further, but at least you'd have a copy.

Lol!

No you *don't* have to take the good with the bad. What if we took that attitude towards medicine? Or anything else, really? The argument you make is nuts.

Sure you can save it. That's great. But vandalism can easily be prevented and it is within our power (well, Thor's, really) to do so. No need to act like 'tards.

[Beonarri]

Nice! Awesome argument...this isn't medicine we're talking here. It's free speech. The arguments used for whatever happens in medicine and whatever happens with free speech are totally different. But, no, really, I love when people jump up and use logical fallacies like they are golden arguments.

You can't exercise power to prevent people expressing themselves, even if they are selfish, five-year-old types.

Erm... You're saying that coming in and deleting layers randomly is free speech? This crack that you smoke - where can I get some?

My right to punch you in the face ends where your nose begins.

[Beonarri]

You've missed the point. I was saying you can't have moderators controlling an artistic expression device like Sketcher.

Thanks for showing that maturity, BTW. Arguments about showing maturity in a chatroom and not messing with the way it functions really holds together when you threaten someone with a punch to the head.

Umm... You seem a bit... Dense. It's a quote from Voltaire regarding personal rights. He was expressing that one's rights end where they begin to infringe upon another. In other words, the right of vandals to delete layers end where my drawing begins. I'm not talking about moderating what's drawn - hardly. I'm talking about people coming in, randomly deleting layers and leaving. It's simply done out of spite and there is no defense of it.

[Beonarri]

Well, obviously I've never read Voltaire, so the reference was lost on me. It sounded more like a threat than clever bit of philosophical patter.

First thing, I would like to say that I do not support cyber vandalism of this kind. It's a pretty lame, dickish, childish, petty, and stupid way to get attention for oneself. The problem is you cannot moderate the activity. It would cause an erosion in what Sketcher is, and defeat the whole purpose of the chatroom-sketching program. That purpose being an open, free place to come, talk to people, and draw publicly.

Now, you could try to get the 'Remove Layer' function removed. Petition that Thor guy, get lots of people to agree with you, and have the function taken out of Sketcher. But, the same people using that function to destroy artwork, would come it, take a tool, probably the Eraser, throw its size all the way up, and presto! A whole layer, erased.

So then what happens.

Yep, someone petitions for the tools to be changed...or a register to be created...or moderators to be added. If a register was created, then you'd never have new people joining up, it would take away the open aspect of the program. And, as I mentioned before, you can't moderate something art based, because there are too many opinions on the subject of art.

[shou']

Regardless of how you've envisioned what Sketcher may be, security will always be the underlying issue with the lack of administration in a public space.

guys i cant seem to get in , is just me? or is a public thing?
also i wonder how much will it cost me if i wanna put something like that on my personal website , does anybody know?

You can lease it from Thor for either $15 or $25 a month (can't remember which).

[magnetos]

Nope. Seems the server is farked.

ahahaha kanoa yeah it's true i cant take it anymore :D
ummmmh ...

i'm open my own sketcher room , it's italian though well its for an italian graphic portal where i'm a mod so if you ,shou and montag are interested i'd be honored to have you as international guests send me a pm and i'll fill you in on the details :)

[Mydrim]

So, the same. I joined artgrounds yesterday because of "shared secret". And yes, it seems like DeviantArt room, manga cute wolfies, yes, yes,... BUT, there they have like, registration and sort of system against the vandals. (Also they have some stupid rules, like "clean after yourself when leavin")

In this discussion about the Registration need VS er.. Artistic liberty, nice anarchy atmosphere, or whatsover you are talking about, in CA paintroom, I am joining the first side. I've met these "funny" kids with erasers few times when I was finishing drawing. And ok, it's just sketcher, if you want to seriously draw, draw in PS, blah, blah, sketcher is about fun, yes, but I just don't see fun in this. It's more sad and frustrating, to say the thruth.

[Smoke]

So is sketcher gone for good?

[Guy Montag]

So is sketcher gone for good?

Nope. Just got an email from Thor this morning, so it shouldn't be much longer before it's back up and running.

[Smoke]

Awesome.

[Guy Montag]

Thor said the room was actually restarted for an upgrade, and sciboy will need to log in to bring it back up. So now to get ahold of sciboy, I guess.

[Guy Montag]

It's back up and running now :D

Looks like fun :)
I'll pour through the thread to see how to get in ;)

[Smoke]

Every time I try to log in the canvas loads, the layers load, then it lags like hell for about 10 minutes and either crashes me, or disconnects.

Any clues? :S

Not sure. Try rebooting, then give it another go.

[Smoke]

Same result. It's infurating because for a few seconds I can actually see the page, and it looks fantastic.

It's working for me - have you tried using a different browser?

If you haven't yet, try downloading the newest version of Java.

[Smoke]

Freshly updated install of java to be sure, still doesn't work. I've tried on Opera, FF, even IE (shudder)

*tear

[Innabok]

How bout clearing all cache and disabling all firewalls and such?

[Smoke]

Nope :/

Guess it was never meant to be.

[life on the sofa]

can someone post the link again, or send it to me via PM ..im too lazy to find it :D

thanks guys

[grenogs]

can someone please tell me what is so special about this sketcher?

[life on the sofa]

its like an interactive, public version of photoshop where people can log on- chat to each other, draw and colour and make pretty patterns :) and people can do colabs (two people working on one piece) and its just more fun to be able to chat and draw WITH your freinds and other people rather than just on photoshop ALOOONNE

:D:D thats about it- but i cant find the link anymore thats why i asked :) so if anyone could ost it for me :)?

[grenogs]

so its like the whiteboard on msn

[life on the sofa]

[ThorHJ]

Nobody has paid since January. Technically someone owes me 3 payments (February, March, April) on that room since it was up and in use all along, but since I didn't claim these payments, I'm not going to bring that up. Anyone who wants the CA room back up can click the Subscribe button at sketcher.artgrounds.com/ (http://sketcher.artgrounds.com/). The subscription is 100 NOK (~20 USD) per month.

[Inimoulleb]

Sigh...wish I had 20 bucks...

[P]

theres still WWW.ARTGROUNDS.COM, so go there and draw, like i do. :)

[Inimoulleb]

I cant stand the people though. ;-;

and the furries...my god the furries! ;o;

[Clodioz]

Room is down due to expired subscription.

:(

[grenappels]

yeah i wish there was still a ca room, the furries.........

[Jonish]

So what about iScribble.net?

[Beonarri]

Me and Spats played with the main room on Artgrounds. It works. But, it was way, way too large of a furfest.

We could use some more folks over there. It's a blast!

[0zz0]

hey i cant use it anyone knows how comes ?

thx !

[Jonish]

0zz0, do you have Java on your computer? I have version 6 update 13 and all is fine. Maybe that's the problem.

ok that is the problem thx for helping!

im downloading java now...

:)

[George Abraham]

Really nice concept this thing is... yessss.

Looks like it dying and crashing is not helping it's popularity. It needs to roll smoothly to build up some steam.

Surprised this is not used more. Mebe the mod coder here should make something more local to the forum, and perhaps some CA chess or something.

[Neon]

Wooo, just discovered that Sketcher is up again!!
Nice!

Is it the time or why is there nobody online sketching?

[Mik2121]

I just left a couple drawings, but I have a feeling nobody's been around there for quite a while!..

[john-briner-art]

Have fun, here's the sketches from my first session.

Your first sketch is very good! I'm not a fan of cartoon but your sketch makes me one! Love it! Continue doing unique drawings :)
