Title: Pokemon Universe seeking Pixel Artists!
Post by: Aaelron on April 29, 2011, 12:52:20 AM
Greetings kind people of the Pokemon Universe Community!

The PU team is currently looking for new and exciting team members to join the Pixel Artist Trial Team!

This team is currently under the directorships of Urmel and Mr_Dark themselves!

As a special bonus for working with the team in creation of art specific to Pokemon Universe, artists receive special features in the game client! 

If you have the uniqueness, nerve, and talent to create wonderful works of art for the team then contact Mr_Dark, Urmel, or myself and let us know your willingness to help!

You already know I've stepped up to the plate. :) Give me what it is for the 'test' you need me to do, and I'll get it done for you.

1) Why are there TWO threads for this?

2) You'd be better searching in places beyond PU, try DeviantART, or similar sites..

Rarely do we get a Pixel Artist to come to us, as in Vixen's case..

Starlite,

Thanks for your advice, however, I'm way ahead of you.  Been there and I have accomplished that, plus many other websites behind the ones you have listed.

Secondly, regardless of its a rarity or not, my job is to find "dedicated" members to join the PU Team, why not try to promote our project from within?  Who knows who could be a good pixel artist in the community.  Obviously we didn't until about a week ago when Wailord and Silver was placed on the Graphics department.  If recruiting members was that easy then maybe someone else would of gotten the recruitment job.

Two threads is fine because a new person is handling management - and it can never hurt to advertise more.
If I may offer my critique, I think a few more details could be useful. Such as the style of art, expected programs to be used, examples, the obligatory terms and conditions mumbo jumbo XP

Yes, I agree too. Something that might be considered, is that the bits about the requirements are spread a little over the forum. You might put them all in this thread (in the first post itself) so that there's no need to go look for the threads each time :)

You've been doing a great job so far Aaelron, keep it up! :)

I see your point now, in that case, welcome to the team.

I'm sorry if I offended you, but I've been trying not to.
The thing is, it just feels weird knowing that I've been here a long time, and it feels like I'm being told I don't know what's going on... I-...

Eh... I'll just leave it at that, again, Welcome, Aaeleron. I hope you take time to get involved with our community, because there are many great people here.

Honestly, I know I have been saying that I will join the team as a pixel artist, but stuff always comes up for me, and it seems i don't have a lot of time, in two weeks on the other hand I'll be done with class for the summer, therefore I may be able to help.

Amphi,

With our new task oriented system that we have developed just for the artists in our community, you should go ahead and talk to Urmel and Mr_Dark about joining the team. 

You will see that it is drastically different, there is no time restraints anymore.

If you think you can help, apply for the job. There's nothing to lose :)

You'll be on trial anyway, so that you will know if you can help or not.

Well like I said I understand a little about pixel's, and Manji a little in photoshop, only so I can work on that I need to know what is most lacking in PU.
Just so I can work properly   :D~
Well I took the streetcar along, then I have to run behind in order to get along, I need several screnshots the game itself, if possible by parties who lack something to be done, just so I can help.

Maybe you could show some examples of your creations so the team can see if you are qualified for the job.
