[SMILEFACE]

does anyone know how to add that small thumbnail picture to the left of your sketchbook thread, and how do you upload your pic straight to conceptart's website instead of hot linking through mine, can't believe they made alot of changes.

in yer first post of yer sketchbook you should be able to just go to edit reply manage attachments select yer file yer copy right info/user name category subcategory genre an media then hit upload if its in yer first post it should set it automatically if not you can check with a mod hope it helps xd

Hey Mike,

I would be totally interested! I keep trying to get into Microsoft and they keep ignoring me entirely. :/ I may just have to get in testing on NATAL, but I would really rather work at the art stuff, and sci fi is my favorite genre ever.

JETPACK! Holy crap! I miss you, dude! Does anyone know when our next meet would be? I keep losing the link to this thread, the search is really hard and crappy to use to find individual threads instead of posts or posters.

And lots of love for Sok! We need to get together and draw/paint. If you're ever in the Redmond area, there's myself and a lot of other digipen grads who wanna keep up on their art, I'm sure we could arrange some drawing time and you could hang out with us! I can also help you with digital, if you like. I used to be all about Painter, but I've become pretty accustomed to Photoshop. (Even though CS4 is the most finicky digital painting program EVER.)

[Sapphire]

Oh, also, I forgot to mention! I don't know if you guys know, but Digipen has free lifedrawing for people in the industry and/or digipen alums. I'm not sure if you have to register or you can just walk in, I'll look up the information site and post it if you guys are interested! Obviously it's in the Eastside (Redmond, at the Digipen art campus.), but I need to figure out if it will still be in the original building, because they're moving everybody into this huge new campus... but I'm pretty sure it's not ready yet.

btw, if you need to get in touch to ask me about it, the most reliable way is email. I never really check conceptart.org's messages that often, as Sok probably knows. It's [email protected].

Sapphire, this thread can always be found in the lounge section, then clicking the local artists groups link, then this thread is always stickied at the top.

Mike, what are you working on these days? get together soon? group meet up?

[Undertow]

Crazy busy at the moment. Looks like the next several weeks have my weekends spoken for. Don't wait on putting together a meeting on my account!

[Lou Holsten]

I'm in the same boat as Mike. Work work work work work...

[jetpack42]

Sarah! So glad to see you are still around! We definitely have to get a group together at some point, if only for old times sake.

You guys know who else I run in to from time to time at Art/Not drawing sessions? Laura! Its crazy to be back in town..

[Dose206]

haha, I wouldn't wait on organizing a meeting but I don't know anybody else here but you Mike. Plus, I think I might be the only person who lives in the southern areas. However, if somebody else organized a meeting I'd sure try and jump on it.

[The Incredible Sok]

Hey Dose how far south are you, im in the tacoma area. If there was a meeting in federal way and stuff damn i would make that...lol

[Dose206]

I'm not that far south, I'm on Beacon Hill, right across from Boeing Field, but I have a car and am willing to travel. It seems, though, that meetings around here usually are held further up north, sometimes in Seattle and sometimes all the way up in Lynnwood area.

[silvestri99]

Hey Dose... I'm down in Des moines so you have fellow southies!
Just wanted to ask if Saturday was the only day that really worked for everyone or if we could consider tyring a friday night as well. Saturdays seem to be filling up for the summer and I would really like to get together with everyone again to sit, sketch and b.s.

[Hawkswift]

Friday nights sound good to me, especially if we're meeting on the eastside again since I work over there.

[Zazerzs]

West Seattle here, over by Alki. I can make either day.

HEY! I resemble that remark (Beacon Hill as well though more North).

[The Incredible Sok]

I'm surprise there aren't anyone on this board that's close to me....lol everyone is up north.

[oXYnary]

As an aside looking for help currently with funny game concept art. For someone up and coming who wants the experience and thinks this might be up their alley. Not a pro job as we cant do payment guarantees (at least we are honest about it versus being screwed over later).

Hey Everyone!

I'll be teaching a class starting July 7th. Fundamentals of Drawing from Life.

Also, starting July 8th, I'll be running a Portrait Drawing night. Works like this: You show up with whatever drawing materials and 5 bucks. One person sits for 20 minutes, everyone draws. We rotate sitting for a 20 minute portrait drawing until everyone has sat, or 3 hours has passed. Great opportunity to practice drawing a variety of peeps with good lighting! Will start July 8th and run indefinitely!

Hope to see some of you there! At least at the portrait nights!

Let me know if you have any questions!

[northstar]

I can someone let me know whens the next group meet up? If can someone can email me some info and what to bring that would be great.

[silvestri99]

Hey everyone, if we were going to plan something for sometime in the next couple of weeks does a friday night or ?Saturday day/night work best?
It's been too long.

[Hawkswift]

Any of those work for me - friday night is best if we're meeting on the eastside. Otherwise anything goes.

It has been too long.

[NewGuy22]

I'd love to come! Either day would work for me...I'm still in whidbey island but willing to drive. Almost came down jetpack's portrait night but figured I'd save the money for now and just use a mirror =p ..this week atleast. Eventually looking to move near seattle..then figure groups will be easy. =) Later yall

[northstar]

If any one who lives on the Eastside and wants to meet lets plan something for next week? I'm in Woodinville.

[Tim Murphy]

Though I am in Seattle I won't be there that day sadly. I'd love to come to the next one if you'll let someone of my not-skill join in

[Hawkswift]

Count me in for the 3rd.

[silvestri99]

I may be able to make it up . That is PAX weekend so I'll be down at the convention center. Depending on how hectic things are I might just pop up for some sketching action. anyone else going to be at PAX?

BTW just mapquested it and here is the location..

[Hawkswift]

I totally forgot that PAX was that weekend... I'll be at PAX too.

Well, Saturday and Sunday.

[redehlert]

So there's a potential of 3 people for this Friday? Come on people...for realz?
If we don't get at least 4 to 5 more peeps, I'm going to say we postpone this until the following Friday.
Chime in quick.

Best,
D

[redehlert]

okay...since I haven't heard from anyone to fill out the Friday eve get together, I'm going to bail. Sorry Hawkswift and Silvestri. Let's coordinate for next Friday.
