Friends, I love that GBS is a community where people from all walks of the forum come together to mingle, discuss, and learn from each other. The organic conversations that spring forth from these daily interactions are delightful and informative.

Unfortunately, this isn't the right thread to have a quick chat in.

Fortunately, there's a GBS Chat thread to satisfy all your idle-chatting-with-your-posting-buddies needs.

It's here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4030048&pagenumber=4&perpage=40

I had an avatar that advertised my thread and I lost it when I was slamming spr.

It took me 20 bucks to get it right back then so I haven't replaced it yet.

I would post in some GBS art thread if anyone had any questions. I'm in a couple giant craft fairs soon, one will get 100,000 people in a day
I've been doing it for years. The last one I was in I made $1700 in 6 hrs :dance:
Or about drawing with eyeshadow, alcohol markers

I now also posted a SA-mart thread to sell art:
https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4030011

And Sid has one too:
https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4027509

I have been thinking about how a GBS art fair thread would work and I think the best way to do it, to be fair to everyone participating, is for each artist to post a blurb with a couple pictures and a link to their SA Mart thread or website or wherever they sell their art, and for the OP to quote each of those posts in the first or second post of the thread, so that everyone is displayed upfront before any discussion posting and no one gets buried in the conversation. Unless someone has a better idea maybe I will post that thread today?

Edit: It might actually be better to have all of the artists PM/email/whatever that blurb to me so they can all be posted at once. I am just thinking in terms of how to get maximum exposure for everyone instead of some people benefitting more due to posting earlier and getting more visibility. Could also be extended to CC posters and other forums too!

Maybe a sticky in the CC forum directing the posters there to the GBS fair art thread after it gets posted would be useful, should they want to make money off their art. Maybe take like, a week or so to ask people about it for collecting artists and their blurbs so you get as many as possible before posting.

And also maybe a banner ad. Maybe we can have a contest thread to design it?

Would it be possible to get one of those red sticky threads asking for submissions for a couple days that appear everywhere, even the bookmarked threads list? That way we could make sure it was seen by anyone on the forums who makes art of any kind, regardless of what forums they visit. There are a ton of very talented and creative goons spread across this forum and it would be neat to see it all collected in one showcase. CC isn't the most active forum these days so if it's only posted there, it might miss a lot of people.

e: I guess that would be the point of the banner ad too

lol I dunno why anyone would get surprised at the forum equivalent of "I'm gonna keep putting my arm in this crocodile's mouth, no way it'll bite it off lol" resulting in said arm being removed.

GBS is great for shitposting and the jokes and whatnot but if someone goes into Pet Island making posts about how owning animals means you're a sociopath, or going to AI to tell them that cars mean you can't provide for a family, or whatever else then no one should ever be surprised at the outcome lol

He didn't (I think, I don't exactly track his posts, they sort of appear like accidentally stepping in something out in a run), I think he just got nabbed by posting about how Xbox sucks in the dedicated Xbox thread which like, come on, what did you think would happen lmao

You're only allowed to post in games about games you don't like if the mods agree with your points, it's one of those unwritten rules.

That's why we have a whole thread for disagreeing about videogames here. It's one of the good things.
