awww this is such a let down. I remember being in school, and trying to enter the first dom war. It was such an exciting time. Fast foward many years and many titles... the prospect of doing a art contest still seems fun, but if profit comes into the equation, i go all businessy mode. Hope PC can bring this back roots.…
I've had a busy weekend, so allow me to chime in now on the whole matter. Emil's post comes off fairly subjective, while reporting on what happened, simply because he is one of the community members here in addition to being an editor and was (is?) pretty fed up with Fred's approach to contests. It could have been written…
It's kind of a bummer that both communities are trash talking each other. I mean, I don't think we are arrogant Douche Bags as one of them said. And I don't think they are assholes. This is turning into something it shouldn't be. Come on. Aren't we, as a community of worldwide artist, better than this?
You could have one big page with all the finalists on it. Beneath each finalist would be a radio button that you'd click to choose that entry as the winner of the two.

Anyone taking the time to observe things will notice that their is no such thing as a forum against another for the sake of pride, glory or reputation. At least here…
I'm going to chime in again and say that we're reading everything that's being said and want to give thanks to all the kind words being said about the Community here, your fellow artists and how the PC Crew does things. Andreas and Gav put it in to words better than I would have. Regarding the Dominance War - As far as we…
I reckon the DW brand is potentially very profitable but not in its current state as the other communities will simply end up boycotting the event if they feel its only benefiting GA financially. If Fred really want to make money from it he should sell the brand and retain royalties. Personally I think Fred has every right…
I may read through the 9 pages of this thread some point soon, but I took a look at the first two just to get an idea of how other people feel about this situation. I feel FredH is a VERY VERY shifty character in the world of game art message boards. I have criticized him many times for a year or two now, and several…
