Artwork

I accidentally found this website and just from looking at it, its probably one of the most cool things I have seen on the internet so far... well Chat Roulette is pretty cool, but anyways!
This is a such an ambitious project and will require a-lot of teamwork and manpower. From the ammount of forum activity I see, the website isnt too popular : (
What could I do to spread the word?
Also, I would like to say I am a relatively talented artist who mostly likes to sketch. I usually draw buildings and landscapes and am slowly but surely getting better at drawing the human being. I can upload and post my drawings here as 'concept art'.
Would uploading artwork help?
Finally, I want to ask if you are already making the physical game. I am talking about basic demos or 3D modeling. Have you made some kind of rought draft. Otherwise, all of this work into the project so far would seem like its a waste.
By the way, I have to say te website looks very streamlined, modern, and pleasent to the eye
By the way, can you allow us to put spaces between paragraphs. Walls of text are hard to read.

Hi mazman, and welcome to the forum!
Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you like the idea :) As you said, we're not very well known yet, but that's actually somewhat of a deliberate choice at this point; I haven't done any promoting of the site at all, and I actually think it's better for the project to stay relatively small until its structure is more firmly worked out (e.g. conditions of membership, the method for electing project officers, etc.) For the moment, if you'd like to get involved, I can put your name down in the volunteer directory: once we launch a full fundraising campaign we will certainly need volunteers to spread the word!
As for artwork, do you usually work with traditional materials, or do you Illustrator/Photoshop as well? We will certainly need concept artists down the line, although the actual game production probably won't be starting for some time.
I think you should be able to space paragraphs normally... I'll check it out, though.

I tried photoshop for a little while but was quickly turned off by how darn complicated is was. Nothing is better than the pencil & paper. I can take pictures of my drawings and try to upload them on this site but trying to do so last night... wasn't as easy as copy and paste.
I tried google sketchup and was impressed by its simplicity. I rather liked it.
Would you suggest a program or another way to get my work on here?

You might want to try a scanner, if you have access to one... feel free to post anything you like, paper drawings are fine!
Never used Sketchup, but I've heard good things about it.

Hehe, who knows, by the time we have enough money to actually hire an art director you might be a seasoned industry veteran ;)
