Haha, ok. So....you guys are fantastic for being so patient with me.

Here's some updates. In spirit of the past month, I think we'll work on that for our next theme. But you guys tell me, would you like to create on the theme of Black History, or something else?

**Please read**
Here's an update on some guidelines for the activities:
Now guys, the point of the exercises is for you to actually use your noggins and create something for the group. That said, I'm going to ask that all exercise submissions are created for the activity, and not just pulled from the back of your gallery.

I appreciate that you all have art that can at times apply to the theme, but please, actually be active and create for the group. I will no longer accept submissions that weren't created for the current theme.

Thanks for reading!

Exercise #5: Something old Something new
Do you have a really old character design that you haven't touched in ages? How about a concept of whatever sort that you dropped like a bad habit years/months ago?

Well here's my challenge to you! I want you to redesign and update those characters and concepts with the skills you now possess. If you would, please link to an old original drawing/picture/writing/whathaveyou so that we can all look and compare and talk about how we've grown as artists.

I'll be joining in on this one myself, so keep an eye out.



Black Artists' Vibe #6: Collaboration
The second activity this time around involves your cooperation with another person or persons in the group. So don't be shy! Talk it up with some folks. Take a look at the Membership List, find someone who's active, and send them a message asking for a collab. If you don't know what you want to do, it's cool. You could actually make this part of the activity tie in with the "heat" exercise and just put together something for that theme with someone.

I'm going to keep this up, because I don't think anyone collabed on anything! *glare*

You can now join each other in some dAmn chat here! You can also search for BANetwork, and that'll bring up the chatroom as well (I may be wrong...). I'll eventually go through and add those in our memberlist to the memberlist of the chatroom, so you'll have priveledges over that of a guest.


HOW DO I JOIN??
Please take a look at the rules, which can be found here. And remember: send notes, not comments!

Here's the member list! Look at the size of this group!!
