Just wondering if there is a place for ASCII art anywhere on PC?

I see "community contributed" projects aren't allowed, so I don't know where a thread would go for posting ASCII art for comments, critique and/or free use in signatures. It would be nice if everyone's ASCII art could be viewed in one place, as people don't often have personal galleries for such things.

Traditional art. I try to pick up my tablet sometimes, but digital art gets too frustrating for me. And you can't really use digital art if you don't know how to use it. I prefer to use my markers and pencils any time.
I agree with you. Digital art frustrates me a lot more. I'd rather pour my heart and soul out through a pencil and a piece of paper.

I like both. :0 Really, I do. And ever since I got my tablet (August) I love digital art even more, yet it will always be on par with traditional art.
Both mediums have their strong points, and things I dislike. Digital Art for example just takes so long, with tradition art mistakes are just so hard to erase once things are no longer in pencil. That's much easier in digital art. And then there are some things here and there I could comment on. >_>

Oh, btw, I would like some c&c. : D Since I really want to get better at art. 2010 will be my year of PEA's (Pose (movement, 'k?), Emotion, Anatomy). But constructive comments have been a little rare at my dA account lately... >.o

I haven't been very active yet in 2010.... Just one quicky. :x
Thanks in advance, though. : D

I don't know if this is the right place to ask or not. I don't even know if this is possible. However, in hopes of finding a solution, I would like to ask a question.

Let's say I have a white shirt with dark teal stripes. How would I go about making those teal stripes turn dark or medium blue without using any dyes, inks, or paints that would not discolor the white stripes? If I wash it a certain way, will it fade into blue?

I don't think theres a way to make the stripes a darker color than they already are without dye/paints, but There must be a chemical you can use to strip the turquoise down to just blue... but it would only be as a dark a blue as the turquoise is now.

Might just be better to buy a new shirt with darker stripes xD;

So, I'm not artsy at all, I just fool around on GIMP and such cause its kinda fun. But I was wondering if anyone owns and/or uses a tablet for drawing? I kinda wanted to buy one, but I wanted to get advice as to which one is the best value and what ones are easiest to use, etc. etc.

Please and thank you,

-Gamer.

First things first, so I want some comments for my drawings, no one wants to say anything.
Can someone say something for all of the pictures? You can say just from one but it would be nice to say something else too.
Here's the link: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=209442

And second thing for .Gamer: I use tablet for drawing, it's Wacom Bamboo tablet (A5) about 80e.
Don't know about other tablets, but I just had to install the program to my PC, follow the instructions and plug tablet to my computer's USB place.

Please feed my Pokémon and warm my eggs.
Thanks for everyone who have clicked these, you've helped me a lot :)

Anyone has Club Nintendo codes that you don't need? I want those.
If you have one code for me I can trade you my Explorers of Sky code as I can't put it because I have registered already one. (Registered my brother's game and now I can't register mine...) Someone have same thing? PM me.
I know there's nobody who wishes to do this xD
I'm talking about Club Nintendo of Europe.

Yes, it works with GIMP. Tested it few days ago, I don't need it as I have Photoshop.
It works fine with everything, it can be used as a mouse, you can play games with it (or you can just draw with it). Some drawing programs didn't support all of the pen abilitys but as you use GIMP you have nothing to worry about (not sure).

I have a Wacom Intuos3 A4 Tablet, and I haven't got any complaints about it. Not it the slightest, I love my tablet.

It works with everything, you don't need a special drawing program to use it.

Spriters, Paint drawers, pen drawers, it doesn't matter. You just need to be able to draw, preferabbly know how to color, and have a scanner. I would be writing the comic. Please post a sample of your work.

I'm considering buying a Wacom tablet to improve my digital art. I want to buy this (http://www.wacom.com/bamboo/bamboo_pen.php) one because it looks fairly simple, and it is cheap compared to the others. I know it isn't the best, but does anyone with experience of Wacom tablets or tablets in general know if this is okay to start out with? Really, I just want something cheap that still works.

The Bamboo is the new "beginner" tablet, which is easy to tell because it's cheap and doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles. So, if it's your first tablet, then yes, it's the best one to start out with.

Just keep in mind that, even though it seems like it'll be really easy to get used to, it does take some practice. It also won't automatically make you a better graphic artist, and there are plenty of people who create amazing work with a mouse or even the touchpad of their laptop.

I too have a bamboo, and it serves it's purpose. Eventually I'd like to have a cintiq (I'm talking way way future, when I'm out of college) because hopefully by then I'll have my major in architecture and my minor in graphic design.

Anyways, I was wondering if I could get any feedback on my sig/avatar I just made, it's simple I know, but I'm just getting back into the swing of things. And yes the text feels weird, but I haven't gotten around to trying to fix that. =/
