    ConceptArt.Org Awards number 1: Most dedicated member- Congrats to William B. Hand



    I want to take a moment to thank William B. Hand for being such an integral part of this community. William has been running the DSG, Daily Sketch Group, for what seems like eon's. Mr. Hand your help has inspired a ton of incredible work and is in no small part a reason why CA is what it is today. Day in and day out Mr. Hand has given his time and talent to this community so please, if you would, give him a thanks and a round of applause.

    William has been awarded a featured artist position atop the site, the entire library of CA downloads, and his choice of any TAD class that he might wish to attend. You sir, are always welcome. All of us here owe you a big thanks.

    William will not be the last to be awarded such things as there are many here who deserve a huge thanks, but at this moment, there is no more unheralded hero around here than Mr. Hand.

    It is an honor to serve here with you William. Thank you for everything.

    He's still running the DSG?

    Clearly I haven't been there lately... but he was running it when I participated ~3 years ago and he'd been running it for a while already. That alone deserves an award, let alone everything else he's contributed over the years!
