Attention all Artists~

Why are none of you talented people participating in the lovely Art Contests I've been hosting?
Are they horrible?
Do they smell funny?
Are they just not interesting?

Feel free to use this as a Feedback on the Art Contests in General, I thought people would be interested in this but if its not the case then there really is no point in hosting them is there?

For that matter - are there any issues that need to be brought to my attention? Anything you artists need that has been neglected? Perhaps we need a Chat Thread =P

I was going to enter in the last one, but 1) I'm lazy 2) I was working on something else, and 3) there seemed to be very few participants. I didn't want to win by being the only one that submitted anything. That's no fun.

So basically... the reason I think your art contests are not very much participated in is because they are not... participated in.


...


But, seriously, the adverts aren't getting to the artists. As well, most artists are Melancholics, and Melancholics are procrastinators by nature.

There is no hope for us.

Anyone else, please say something on this topic! Artists must have voices too!

Well I haven't been on here very long, and when I saw the art contest thread I didn't have time to make one because the deadline was over. I was going to enter the next one.

I concur with Solus Anonymous: more advertising is crucial. The board on which the contests are being hosted is nearly invisible, being, as it is, at the bottom of the Art and Writing forum. I don't believe it's receiving enough exposure - not enough artists are consistently aware of it. Personally, I would think hosting the contests in the actual Artwork forum would be wiser, at least until the contests gain attention and momentum.

I wish I could post my drawings on the site, I have not posted anything because my scanner doesn't work on my laptop.

Yes, Selah's Idea would probably work. ^_^

Hmmm, yes I could bring the Monthly Art Contests into the Art Forum. I'll give it a try ^_^

Were there any other issues Artists have? That I could fix - non-functioning scanners and such aren't my forte =3

No, not really. Just make sure the themes are good Which they usually are
