Last Artist Standing - Draw Every Day

Sorry in advance op >>2338138 but your thread is nearing 100 posts over the bump limit and I was wondering if anybody was going to notice

>>2343309
Do we tripfag this shit, add a signature or...?

>>2343313
You can post at the site where a username and password combination is required, I'll still probably mostly post as anon in these threads though.

>>2343314
you can sign up without a password or email if you want to go pro lazy mode

It's ok to take the stuff I drew today a bit further for tomorrows submission right? I was just going to spend an hour or two each time over a few days on the same study until I feel like I learnt what I wanted, and use that as my Draw Every Day.

>>2343347
yeah there was a poll and it's ok to post progress pics as long as you're putting in the time

im in.

welcome, newfriend

>spend an hour on what should've taken 15min because I'm out of practice

Thank god there's no report function yet.

>>2343368
we aren't police anyway.

>>2343368
I can't speak for everyone, but I'm not planning on reporting anything that's not obviously a very rushed last-minute doodle or a troll.

man,I wish the submissions were laid out in a instagram style thumbnail.

not OP
a surprising amount of tumblrs
on a side note, jerrybreem you should link to the picture and not just your tumblr page, I can't access that without having an account and god knows I don't want one

Your censor made me smile, alm0nde.

wait , if i update a link it wont double post?

I don't think he wants other people to appreciate anyway.

>>2343386
No, if you want to add another drawing it'll have to be in the same file.

I'm glad to see how many people are participating. Hopefully we can keep it up. I'll probably stick a note on my door or something so it doesn't slip from my mind.

ah, okay i actually don't know how to use the tumblr crap thing but i figured that since my market is there i might start learning.

>>2343378
OP here

I've been trying to come up with a solution that would work with so many different blogs/image hosts and the best I can come up with is to make it possible to add a thumbnail to your submissions.

It'd be on the submitter to do it but I can make the process as painless as possible by adding a crop tool to the site.

That way the site doesn't look bad, I'm not stuck with a huge hosting bill and you get click-through to your blogs.

That's the best I can think of at 2am

>>2343435
>>2343426
I updated his submission, thanks for the correct link. I need to get that report system added soon

>>2343442
Crazy amount of unplanned work, huh?

there's already a weird link appearing
I think we should set a standard like imgur and filter everything else simply to prevent any kind of bullshit links

>>2343447
That's just me checking for attack vectors (not OP).

Can I lurk all your submissions without creating an account?

>>2343455
Here I made a quick page, sorry it looks like garbage I only spent a minute on it
http://www.lavaflake.com/draw/submissions.php

>>2343447
It's against imgur's ToS to use them as a content delivery network

>>2343457
Didn't know that, that's a real bummer

>>2343457
Thanks for the quick link!

Inktober almost killed me and I could barely draw for the rest of the year, I might pop in a bit later when i have a more regular schedule.

Best of luck to you all!

>>2343457
You can go ahead and delete ab's submission, I'm done, couldn't really find anything at all (sadly?), in either submitting, registering and general spamming. Only thing would be you check the headers of submitted links (in php get_headers($url)) and check they're 200 OK and Content-Type: image/* (would reject imgur album links, but having only direct image links seems best if you're gonna change it to more of a gallery view).

>>2343398
how about a hover-over thumbnail preview?

also thanks for creating the whole site/challenge and all, get some rest when you can

I don't think it'd be too bad if it were limited to a few common sites if necessary. The most common links I'm seeing so far are imgur, tumblr, deviantArt, and 4chan. All of those sites also create their own thumbnails, so it might be possible to steal those for the image preview without having to host them yourself. I don't know how easy that would be to actually implement though.

>tfw my submission is the shittiest

Also I feel it might be cool in regards to topics that after you submit your work for the day you're prompted to vote on the next day's topic

>>2343515
what's ur nickname?

PLEASE make the first week challenge a sonic themed character design challenge.

Why can't we just have an ongoing weekly challenge thread on /ic/? Why do you faggots always have to overcomplicate this shit?

>>2343600
Because that shit never works and you know it.

>>2343600
Last time this happened (it was a concept art challenege if I'm not mistaken), people were bitching about how it was a scheme from some company to get free work/ designs.

For some reason dumbasses on this place think that challenge/theme =ZOMG someone wants to steal my awesome arts and OC.

>>2343613
We'd just have to stick with it for a couple of threads instead of immediately giving up after the first one. Also if we just copied old CA.org challenge topics or sketch daily topics far less people would be paranoid about it than if the OP makes up his own brief. Which is what was done last time with that survival horror topic.

Would anyone be interested in me starting a foundation group thread? I will also make a skype group for it (just no shitposting or you'll be removed).

>>2343648
what do you mean foundation? as in learning the fundamentals,if so I'll be down with it

>>2343649
Yeah, basically we'll all start from square one with a set of videos I have in mind like a school and do its assignments for the week: https://www.patreon.com/Foundation?ty=h

is what I had in mind

Okay I made it here >>2343677

>>2343521
Kingler

>>2343652
This sounds like a good idea for the first weekly challenge, As long as it's not from Patreon, I don't want to pay them.

>>2343759
You can "borrow" the files on peers.

OP here

Here's my schedule for the day:
>draw something for the challenge
>build a proper dev environment
>create and test the elimination system
>update the submissions page

The submissions page is garbage and needs to be improved asap. It'd be my highest priority if the others weren't critical to the success of the challenge.

I don't want to limit which hosts you can link to so I'm going to create a system where you can link to your post and then add a thumbnail. I'll make the process painless as possible.

Ideally everything will be ready before 00:00 but if anything's left behind it'll be the gallery and I'll have it ready later tonight.

ps: topics and themes will come but based on the comments and emails I think having thumbnails is a higher priority

>>2343764
Can I use my shitty faggot token today?

>>2343764
how can you access the site from a second device?/phone? been trying for a while to no success

>>2343772
There's like seven hours left, if you have time to post on /ic/ you have time to do a 30 minute sketch. Or even do a page of gestures in a few minutes. If you can't do it already, you're not going to make it for the weeks to come.

>>2343772
yeah. if you submitted today then once it hits 00:00 you'll have 24 hours to submit before your token will be taken. if you miss the next day you're out

if you haven't submitted yet then no worries. you have until 23:59:59 GMT on Friday to submit. The token will only be used if you've joined and then miss a day.
>>2343774
you should be able to, only issue is that when you login to a new location it will log you out of the old one

>>2343548
I made a quick update to the logged in one so you can see ones you've already visited. i've also resorted them so new submissions appear at the top

well..thanks..

>>2343795
it's part of the site. there's a CRON job that runs everyday at 00:00 that checks

>who's participating
>did they submit in the last 24 hours
>if not do they have the token
>if so eat the token
>else eliminate them

there's another function that checks people who don't have token to see if 30 days have pass so they can get a new one.

it's pretty straight forward

>>2343805
if that's a pain i can update it someday. I went overboard on security ou of fear of the dreaded hacker 4chan

>>2343808
Hmm, I didn't realize that it was GMT time when I submitted yesterday. Not sure if I submitted in time since I submitted at 9:30pm PST.

Is there something on the website that will tell me if I'm out or not?

>>2343846
Check if your submission is here:
>http://www.lavaflake.com/draw/dashboard/submissions.php

You may have submitted during the test period when I opened submissions right before I took the site down to go live. If that's the case it's no worries.

Even then, you can join any time this week and the only way you'll be eliminated is if you post and then stop posting

>>2343849
My submission is up there! Thanks for doing all of this. Its really great.

>>2343754
nah you'll be fine.

thanks OP o/

>>2343831
nope, not him.

i see some people are updating their submissions with new drawings: crmbsct, loomis

did you do it because you wanted something different for your first day? cause the first day doesnt end for another 4 hours

>>2344005
dey just gay

>>2344005
cant i just have fun?

>>2344005
I already figured it out.
I assumed it would let me post a new picture regardless since it is a new day at my place, it seems I have to wait the full 24 hour period.

Leadership board, when?
When OP?????
Do it for my ego.

>>2344041
70 way tie for first place. best leaderboard

Newfag to this, when can we post our day 2 drawings? I already submitted my (shitty) art for day one but not sure when to submit for day 2. Is there a specific time or something? I don't want to eliminated this early.

>>2344066
Maybe..MAYBE you can post day your day 2 drawing on day 2.

>>2344066
You'll have to wait till the timer runs out, until when presumably there will be a new slot available.

>>2344068
The way this was set up is that some people are going to post their day 2 drawing on day 3.After all, there are different timezones other than the atlantic one.

I noticed some people were linking to 4chan, puu.sh, etc and those images will eventually die. I rehosted them on imgur, updated the submissions and blacklisted the domains of temporary image hosts. Just an fyi in case anyone wonders why their url changed.

>>2344066
there's a timer. it ends in 3 hours fyi (00:00 GMT)

That question alone should prove that the name wasn't gayer than any other.

2 hours until we become officially the first day posters

Is the next submission period open? It says entry closed, which is sort of why I'm asking

>>2344132
Then we'll be eternally superior to anyone else who joins the site.

Was pretty fun. Thanks OP for not being a faggot for once.

Goddamn the pic i took wasnt this bad, why did i do wrong?

can is start on day 2 yet?

>>2344186
you got an hour draw something.

>>2344167
Your heads were fucking awesome.

If I make an account now am I still in for challenge 1 or did I have to sign up yesterday?

40min left for the day, right?

Damn, I'll barely make it then. I haven't followed much, no rules on what to draw then? I can do w/e?

Hey guys, maybe we can come up with a simple drawing challenge now? Just an optional topic, like, "wizard", "mermaid", "pirate" or w/e.

>>2344206
Yes draw whatever you want. just hurry up, dude.

What happens when the timer runs out
Does it kill everyone in the list systematically? It better, this place needs cleanup anyway

if you try to submit again it replaces the first one so i think once a day

I'm glad there's no report system yet or I'd get voted out

the page refreshes and you can submit for tomorrow. I'll make it all fancy and same page later

It's pretty sad that someone who has a relatively decent understanding of shape and volume gets banned for "low effort" just because of the subject matter whereas people who scribble some petty pencil "gestures" get off for free. Hope it's not permanent.

>>2344251
he's not banned its op being a faggot he did it during the beta

>>2344254
oh.. sorry I just came in

>>2344251
Yeah he's not banned. It's a joke from a couple days ago when I first created the submissions page and I created a custom tag for anyone that helped test it.

I'm not the art police. If your host will host it then submit it. I'll let the community police low effort drawings with the tribunal system when it's released

Can we hit 100 you lazy fucks

>>2344259
91 on the first day is crazy

New day, new drawing, get to work /ic/

since day one is over now, is day 2 without a topic as well or do we decide one now?

>>2344261
I was surprised when we had 35. This is fantastic.

>>2344261
>>2344259

I should of spammed the other drawfag boards more.

>>2344266
Where'd you post besides the /a/ drawthread? They didn't seem very interested anyways lol

Is there a way to view day one's submissions without going to individual profiles? Also, I just noticed that you typo'd "submissions" on the submissions page.

>>2344263
Challenges haven't been implemented it seems, but I think a few people are taking the Sonic challenge seriously.

Also Turrnip, on record, you overwritten your first drawing. You should submit the drawing from yesterday as today's just so that it is official

these first three are good

Alright guys the plan for tonight is to create a new submissions page that looks more like a traditional gallery (previews/thumbnails, grid layout, etc.)

I've created a dev environment so there shouldn't be any interuptions with the site. If you have anything you'd like to see on the page besides being able to favorite/follow artists let me know.

>>2344263
official topics are still at least a week away. If you guys want to come up with a theme for yourselves then i guess up with some options and i can stick a poll on the site for everyone to vote on

>>2344267
/v/ /co/ /h/ /soc/ /u/ /d/ /i/

>>2344271
I think you fucked up listing submissions on people's profiles. Day 1's are listed as their day 2 and vise versa (not matched correctly with the day submitted)

>>2344274
/a/ has a draw thread with a few artists too.

>>2344269
>a few people are taking the Sonic challenge seriously

>>2344280
Oh wrong thread lol

>>2344277
what more surprising that they are plenty of others artist on this board that are doing their own thing.

I don't know, maybe more will join the future but this number that turn out is great.

>>2344275
yeah it doesn't accurately represent the day on which they submitted since it's literally just a counter of how many days they submitted with "Day" prefixed on.

The data's all there with the correct timestamps I just put that there cause it looked bad without something and it took 3 seconds to add it. I'll fix it when I get to user profiles but I'll change Day to # for now

I really like your stuff, Anon313.

This system is so good.
It's the second day and yet I'm itching to draw more the moment I finish with today's drawing - making it into a game and into something to strive for that "shows instantly" (daily) is wildly motivating.
Thank you, OP. I feel great. I couldn't draw anything for the whole first week of 2016. In comparison, I've drawn nonstop for the last two days.

>>2344294
I'm proud of you, anon! It really is satisfying. I'm looking forward to the badges/achievements.

not him but i drew something then had 40min to render, it looked like shit cause i wasn't finished, ended up not submitting anything. i guess i can do 2 submissions tomorrow?

I say 5

Perhaps because that 91 accumulated over 24 hours, but this day has only been going for an hour and a half? Not everyone prepared in advance.

Is this the shitty pseudo elitist group from yesterday?

Say I get up at 11:30 pm and submit shortly after. The next day is saturday so I sleep in until 01:00 am which means I'm fucked unless I submitted another one on the evening prior which would mean that I submitted twice on (my) day 1 and don't have to submit on (my) day 2 at all.
I don't think this is gonna work for me.

>>2344366
Well you've missed yesterday, but there's a rule if you post double the amount of drawings today to make up for it, it's fine. I'm not sure how that's implemented since it's one submission a day.

You could just draw one thing every day and then submit two in one day. So you'd be drawing a bit ahead. But since the rounds run 24 hours, I don't understand how it wouldn't work unless you're sleeping for 24 hours.

>>2344384
Not him but if the idea is to draw every day yet the system actively encourages him to draw twice every second day, the system isn't doing it's job.

>>2344371
whats the current level skill of the group.

>>2344372
sorry, it was confusing because of different timezones, my day hasn't ended yet.

>>2344390
it's mixed, pretty much.
no professional so far, but some pretty good stuff.

>>2344378
what if i post 3?

>>2344386
In hindsight it should've started a timer once you submit something so that you can set your next timeframe yourself
You could reset it constantly by submitting something every hour or so but of you don't post anything, your limit will be 24 hours
That way it would still be at least a drawing every day

>>2344390
>>2344397

the system doesn't encourage you to draw everyday. You're allowed a miss day which you have to make up for the next day with a double post. If you miss again within 30 days then you're eliminated

>draw day 1
>miss day 2
>double post day 3 to catch up
>miss any day from 4-33 and you're eliminated

I don't know why you're so hung up on the clock. If the deadline is midnight for you then submit before midnight everyday. If you wake up some days at 11pm and some days at 1am then just submit everyday at noon

>>2344402
fuck why can't I get "everyday" vs "every day" right

>>2344402
>What the fuck is a job?

Also: What you're describing in the first post does in fact encourage you to draw every day on 29 out of 30 days. The situation they were deliberating would also have come up every single week which makes the voucher useless for them.

>>2344409
>>2344377

I don't get that there's a problem here, you have to submit once in 24 hours, whenever you draw the thing in that time is completely up to you. Then just submit one time between the clock ticking over one way or another. I drew two things as this started so that I could get my schedule set so I can submit like an hour after the day change, and then have all day to do the next piece, no rush.

>>2344413
You're missing the point then. You're not supposed to draw to get points, you're supposed to get points so you'll draw. That's how vanity kills artistic development.

>>2344409
People have jobs, others have school, others don't have anything. Of course the game is set such that the person with the most time on their hands has the best chance of "winning", but what really is winning? The point is to get people to practice and draw something every day. Honestly you could post sketches you did years ago and call it a day, but as some other anon said, you are only fooling yourself.
>>2344413
also this.

>>2344404
Think of how the sentence would sound if spoken, and pay attention to if there's a slightly longer pause between "every" and "day." Alternatively, remember that "every day" is an adverb and "everyday" is an adjective. In most cases you'll be using "every day." It's alright Lavaflake, I'll be here for you until it sticks.

>>2344409
>>What the fuck is a job?
Are you at work for 16hrs a day? The anon in question can do their drawing after they wake up and before work, or after work but before they go to sleep. I have trouble imagining what timezone that would prevent anybody from posting at one of those two times everyday.

If the only free time slot is around the 12am GMT mark, then do two drawings the first day so that you can post early the next "day" consistently like anon >>2344413 mentioned.

>>2344421
Friendly /ic/ grammar police

>>2344419
At some point I'll probably end up doing some gesture pages to save for when I'm booked with assignments, because I'm a competitive fool.

Quick question: should the new submissions section contain submissions from only the current day or from the last 24 hours?

The current system (current day only) gives it a fresh feeling cause they're all new but it looks pretty depressing to see 93 participants but only 13 entries (because we're only 2 hours into the day)

What do you think? Current day or last 24 hours
>http://strawpoll.me/6496746

>>2344429
The daily system makes it feel more like a competition and community, and separates it more distinctly than a constant inflow and outflow. Think of it as a fresh start.

>>2344426
Well, there are dragon dildo badges at stake, and as long as you are practicing at all the effort isn't pointless.

>>2344429
I like the fresh feeling, and once the clock is ticking and about an hour left, it feels like the pressure is on seeing nearly everyone have something in

also loomis, good job this time :^)

>>2344429
Current day system forces you into a habit of getting work done. So the slight pressure is good for all in the long run.

Also it's the entries will middle out to the core group that will be consistently working daily, only natural.

Question OP, what are you thoughts on people jumping back into the challenge the day after if they were eliminated?

>>2344449
>load more button at the bottom
Please no, can we have pages instead? It makes it so much easier to find something specific and loading them all to the beginning could get pretty cluttered if there's a lot of submissions. I don't think we need pages yet though, maybe once we're regularly getting over 100 submissions per day, with 50-100 on a page.

Singed up late and had only 20min time, didn't make it in time and not sure if my record is fucked now even though I posted

>>2344418
Responded to wrong post?

>>2344458
Was your submission in day one or day two? The time you submit doesn't matter as long as it's within the 24-hour period. If it was on day two, your score will be one day behind ours, but as people gradually drop out or forget a day you can catch up. Your streak doesn't start until your first submission, so even if you signed up on day one but didn't post until day two, you won't be eliminated unless you miss a day from now on. At least, I believe that's how it is.

>>2344429
Porque no los dos

I like the idea of having the current day, which could have like 5 pics if you're one of the early birds, but then if you scroll down you can see what everyone did yesterday. Otherwise if you can only dump sketches early before you then go to work or whatever, you don't really get to see anyone else's stuff.

>>2344454
>Question OP, what are you thoughts on people jumping back into the challenge the day after if they were eliminated?
The current system doesn't even let you post if you get eliminated but I'll change that. It won't be possible to jump back into a challenge you've already been eliminated from but I will make it so that you can keep submitting if you are. Once the week ends your submissions will auto-enter you into the new challenge

>>2344455
>Please no, can we have pages instead?
Yeah good point load mores are annoying as hell. I'll make it so that you navigate by "previous page" "next page" and maybe include some of the previous day when there are less than X current submissions or something
>>
>Singed up late and had only 20min time, didn't make it in time and not sure if my record is fucked now even though I posted
Don't worry, if you post at any point during the first week then you're part of the week 1 original challenge. That'll be the big one. It doesn't matter if you're a day late

>>2344471
So you would be able to summit but it wont count to the score, till the start of next week where it will start counting from there. Right?

>>2344479
Yeah exactly. They'll still show up on your profile and on the submissions page

>>2344465
My submission was on day 2 but I singed up on day 1

>>2344488
No worries then, you're still part of the original contest. Let's say it's down to you and someone that was from day 1. If they drop out and you submit on that same day it doesn't mean you've won yet. You'd need to submit one more day to tie and then another to win to make up for having started a day later.

You're still in the fight.

The new submissions page is coming along pretty nicely

>>2344503
Nigga you better offer your website making servies for money or I'll stab your donkey ass

>>2344503
Don't forget to add an option to display or hide nsfw stuff

>>2344503
Is it just me, or do the thumbnails look quite large, especially in relation to the sidebar?

>>2344510
Yeah by default NSFW get a special thumbnail and you'll be able to disable it in your profile.

>>2344508
Not so much anymore, it's all wordpress and bootpress themes these days. There's nothing wrong with that but I like custom projects and they're too expensive

>>2344515
Yeah I've already downsize them 33% so there's an extra row. I really liked it at first but they're just too big

I wish there was some kind of daily topic. I really want to keep participating in this but I feel I won't last long if I'm only asked to draw whatever I want.

I'm of course not forcing everyone else to do this, but some kind of optional topic/goal would be nice.

I must admit, I'm getting a little envious at how much work some of you are putting into your submissions. That Turrnip guy looks like he really buckled down and drew some shit. Hopefully I'll be able to deliver some good hard work as well.

>>2344567
I think it's just draw whatever you want for the first week, and after that we'll start having optional themes.

>>2344303
Just getting a feel of the place before I start submitting weeb shit everywhere.

>>2344429
A visual divider where each days submissions end would be fine, with a whole weeks worth loaded on the page at a time. Maybe less than a week if you start loading thumbnails and we still have a lot of participants. Ideally there'd be an option to choose how many past submissions load for you, so we can pick ourselves.

>>2344612
I updated the site with the submissions page progress if you guys want to check it out and let me know what you think. There are a bunch of missing images since I'm currently using the provided url as a thumbnail (a lot of people link directly to their blogs.)

I'll make it look pretty later but let me know if the layout works

>>2344615
There's just not enough space for the whole URL but I don't want to send people to a link blindly so I put the domain at the bottom.

Oh and I also set it so the current day is sorted new > old and the previous pages to old > new. I'm hoping this encourages earlier posting since it gives people a better spot in the archives

Nice, I like the thumbnails. And at first I thought the NSFW thumbnail was too subtle, but then I realized the low contrast makes the thumbnail itself more work-safe, since it doesn't look like a warning and the word "dicks" isn't obvious. So good thinking.

>>2344621
Oh yeah haha I was just using that as a placeholder cause it's 2am and I thought it was funny. I'll probably just replace it with a similar low contrast image except have it say NSFW or something

I know about that sub but I since I started on day 1 with everyone else here it feels a bit more special to me.

Can the faggots who join late (me) still "win"? I mean I draw everyday anyways, since 2014.

I realize now that it's a bit of a pain to open them all so I'll make some changes. Actually I'll add an options button and you'll be able to:

>show all of the image headers/footers without needing to hover
>make the background image clickable
>add an option to switch between a list and grid view

This new view looks better but it'd be a pain to view 100 images with it

>>2344631
Yep, if you enter any time during the first week you can win it all. I explained it to this guy here >>2344496

>>2344615
How do the thumbnails work? I'm getting rows of 3, and increasing/decreasing my browser zoom doesn't effect their size at all. I'm not used to this magic.

I like it though, I like that they're huge too.

>>2344642
Oh you may have loaded the page right as I was rolling back the changes. You should only ever see 5, 4, 2 or 1 columns and they're based on how wide your browser is. If you saw 3 then odds are it was mid rollback where they are HUGE because it loaded the wrong css file.

It's back to the boring list view now

Currently there isn't a "vacation" system and I don't know if something like that can exist. How long could you go and how often? Would you have to make it up with a huge image dump when you get back or would you have to submit/schedule them in advance.

Either option's possible but I don't know if that's what everyone wants. I made sure the site was mobile friendly so as long as you have a phone or wifi you should be good.

Instead of making a bunch of strawpolls I made a quick google docs survey. Let me know what you guys want and I'll implement it

>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1xsR1RIf-ilLehzBnmom3kbKUwl1ZUR3METRknWj0nZY/viewform?usp=send_form

I'll embed it into the site as well

>>2345000
Can I even submit more than 1 in one day? And will it prevent me from losing the streak?

>>2345002
Nope, currently you have to submit everyday. If you miss a day then you'll get a warning and need to make up for it with a double post the next day. If you don't, or if you miss again within a month then you'll be eliminated

>>2345004
Shit shit shit
Does anyone know a place with wifi near Stockholm hostel?

>>2345000
I really like the idea of a vacation mode. Sometimes life just gets in the way of what you want to do, and this would prevent luck-based loss of streak in events that are more substantial than the token covers. And I don't have a smartphone, and I'm sure many other anons don't either, so I don't have the internet available at all times. I think a catch-up would be better than a bulk post, since instead of drawing a bunch in advance, you could continue with your daily schedule and just post those when you have internet access or the time to focus on this again. Temporary business, like needing to set aside art during finals week, doesn't reflect a poor work ethic. Since this site is to enforce a solid work ethic, I think slight leniences like this are necessary to make it as fair as possible.

>>2345000
Nice to see from the responses that most people agree in not having a vacation mode. If you're going to be away, you have to plan for it, and catch up when you get back or just draw on holiday. It's not that hard.

Robogabo's sketchbook on conceptart still gets daily updates (whenever the site isn't down), and he's been doing that since 2007. Even though he's worked at Bungie and all sorts of places he's kept it going, and if he can, we can too.

>>2345180
Geez they sure do look dangerous
I hope they didn't nibble on your drawing hand

>>2345000
>>2345009
I think it's understandable that people might have to take time off, but I think that's not the point of this challenge.

I don't think I have the willpower not to get lazy, that's why I joined this, because it will force me to keep drawing. Knowing I can take advantage of the system will probably lead to me taking advantage of the system.

Question, I just posted my drawing, but I feel like I may come back to it tomorrow, does it count if tomorrow I spend some more time on it and post an updated version?

>>2345276
I believe the consensus is that it's fine as long as you still put in a significant amount of time each day.

Not the guy you're replying to, but I'm going backpacking through rural Japan and Taiwan in a few months and even Tokyo is kind of a wifi desert. There will be days where I'll be drawing, but have no internet.

It's more effort but I think vacation mode should be more of an appeals process, just so people who need it can have it, but not everyone will have the option to abuse it.

crmbsct you said you left the internet
