I am not very against the idea of rules, the rules do allow digital participants. I just don’t like how they never showcase the digital works on the page, also again, I am not very much into the idea of random people commenting how it isn’t InkTober since it isn’t ink. Hence why I made this forum post.
This is my exact words, and again according to the rules I can absolutely join but getting mocked or asked why it isn’t traditional art isn’t my idea of fun. They support it don’t share it, which again is a lot dodgy when they do have a digital collaborator.
No need for apologies, I do understand the discussion and I am happy to participate and lent out my two cents. However the intention of creating this post wasn’t to discuss the morality or the righteousness of Inktober, it was to simply get alternate prompts.
There’s a large amount in google images of inktober prompts, plenty to pick from for a personal challenge. Ack, I was trying to find a pretty good one I saw earlier geared towards environment artists, but can’t seem to find it, now.
Well traditional category is there but it is not the highlight and main thing. It is there just like there is lounge. Often when a user only posts in traditional category we remind them that this is a krita forum and they should post more krita artwork. We have to draw the line somewhere. Do you wish this forum to be more strict or do you wish for it to be lax. Being lax can mean people can post anything and it will be general forum and not a krita forum at that point I will stop maintaining the site and shut it down, anyone else can continue.
On that thought I am thinking of correcting the mistake, i will delete the traditional category so that there is no double standard. And also I think from now on we should have only 100% krita artwork not even pencil is allowed? I can be a moderate or an extremist you can choose which one should I be. What do you say?
@raghukamath Not at all. What I wish is that people start looking at issues from both sides before getting upset.
I was just using your site as an example that we shouldn’t hate on Inktober for not being entirely accepting of digital art just as traditional artists shouldn’t hate on Krita Artists for not being entirely accepting of traditional art. I don’t think they do by the way.
It is entirely within reason that each community draws the line somewhere and says “this is what we are all about”.
So what I want removed is unnecessary agitation and feelings of exclusion.
it just reminded me of plugin project i started weeks ago;
which is kinda a quick challenge prompter because recently, because i was too tired im struggling of thinking what to draw as warm up - and im doing random prompts just get by that mental block.
