Off Topic. Pixelation need a tutorials section?

on: October 01, 2006, 10:35:48 pm
Does anyone else here think that Pixelation needs a tutorial section, it would help out a lot of newcomers and pixel artists could show off what they know more. It would probably help me too. :crazy:

Simply making a board wouldnt fill it with tutorials. Also, I doubt a tenth of this forum is qualified to make tutorials, if that.

Actually, I think hes right. A forum purely for instruction and bettering your self through learning and instruction. Maybe this could inspire some people to update what Tsugmo did way too many years ago.

Actually, there's something coming up that might be of interest, it's going to launch after the remastered challenge finishes...

Whether or not the wiki gets rebuilt, I think this is a good idea, and I suggested it to the other admins (I mentioned it before I saw this thread, coincidence!! Nonetheless, I think this is good...).

I always thought that posting work for CnC counted as bettering yourself through instruction =) Wouldn't a tutorial section amount to the same thing as the normal board, then, but with only beginners posting art there?
