I'm far from being an artist, but that is indeed a good idea... Would be nice to see other members' work all in one place

I like the idea, I am an artist.

I have drawn a few covers of my favorite albums, I have got to show you my drawing of ITCOTCK, and Animals, they are so perfect.

Mirage is preety good, but I had trouble with the pyrimid in the background, the waves are what threw me off.

I'm stating we have a section in the forum devoted to User Art and User Creations to be posted by forum members/users and for other members to praise/criticise respectively. It would be a bit like a friendly exchange and it would be a fine addition to the archives I do believe.

  • Literature in other formats
  • User-posted music files (like something the user composed or a link to band websites or band mp3s for a nice praise/criticism section)
  • Possibly even a section where we could interperet other's art (including that of prog artists...say like a thread could be posted similar to my old thread explaining the album "Frances the Mute" by The Mars Volta) --if this last thing occured we could title the section "User Creations/Interps" or something like that.

I have seen it work very well in forums before and I am fairly confident that the users on ProgArchives, or at least some of them are indeed artists of a sort and  I have also noticed that, because of our taste here, we are more prone to give acceptable amounts of praise and criticism that would enable other users to benefit from the opinion of the users on this site and help them to improve in style more frequent to the common listers/viewers/readers eyes/ears.

Personally I think it's a marvelous idea and should be considered throughly.

If you have something against this idea PLEASE let me no, and the same goes if you support it--which is the best "draw" of the idea, and are there things you like/dislike about the idea--any suggestions for the idea?

If you're not entirely sure if this idea is worth the time, or if you think a section like that would be underused, than vote "I'm not sure/possibly/etc" and tell me why you aren't sure if you have the time.

Thanks to everyone mucho in advance and I hope this poll goes well.

I vote YES, although I'm not an artist. I think that prog-music and plastic arts have much in common (in PA definition about progressive music there's a paragraph exclusively for this relation).
