You guys know if either Drawcrowd or Artstation has (or plans to have) an iOS/Android app?
I am betting artstation will definitely do something along those lines eventually. Both are still in beta so it may be a while before that happens though.
They(Artstation) mentioned it in their video that mobile browsing would surely be a priority and they have a particular feature for easy browsing on tablets etc!
I miss cghub. ArtStation looks like it has potential, but loads like crap compared to cghub on my terrible internet. Does anyone know if they plan on building up a community forum on it with regular mini/contests. I enjoyed browsing cghubs various monthly challenges, I need a replacement now.
We are all feeling that void where CGHub once was in our hearts. You can either choose to fill it with replacement sites or with booze and tears. Many of us lived through a similar experience post Firefly.
It's probably a good idea to buy your own domain name and have it forward to whatever site you decide to use as your portfolio. CGHub tanked not too long after GDC, how many people handed out business cards that now contain dead URLs?
Definitely Polycount cant be new CG Hub, hosting is really expensive and also will change the theme of these forums. I think its chance for a new website to take over cghub heritatge, definetely i miss cghub

Can't disagree with that assessment, I personally am loving art station.
I like the layout and appearance of ArtStation, but you cant seem to open multiple tabs of images from the thumb tables so I find myself browsing DrawCrowd way more often even though I don't think it looks near as good. Why make an art site with a white background? =/
Plus, ArtStation is super slow compared to DrawCrowd.
I'm torn between the two for artstation and drawcrowd. I really like the way artstation is set up for your community page. I just wish it could have the infinite scroll mechanic. I get tired of hitting the "load more art" button.
Tell you what, artstaion. You just keep loading up art. I'll tell you when to stop.

Unofficial, really slow and bulky. Kind of a shame ;/
Hey guys (@PyrZern and @Lazerus Reborn), right now it's slow and bulky, but I've started optimizing it. I am working on a new and improved profile/portfolio page which should be live tomorrow.
All the Tumblr images will be removed in two weeks, as it's not my content. Hopefully,the site will be populated enough to attract more artists.

Also why are the front pics shitty humanoid aliens?
Wow, alienate yourself why not! Haha.
Frontpage thumbnails too big, leaves no mystery or enticement and a great deal less variety smacking you in the face.

Sure is a nice feature:)
You monster. I had finally stopped crying.
