3rd Sketch Fest Wrap-up
A giant thank you to everyone who participated in this - as prompters, or as artists. I am far too lazy to go round up everyone right now and do a headcount, but it looks like we beat our last sketch fest totals - there are 100 pieces on our wall right now, and I think a few artists still need to upload their work to it:

I thought the wall was an awesome addition to this sketch fest - it was so much fun watching it grow! If you haven't yet, use the upload form to get all your sketches that were completed before noon up there: http://hotlink.ellenmilliongraphics.com/sketchfest/sketchfestupload.php
(Please do so today or tomorrow, as I will be closing the form down after that... until next month!)
A huge thank you to our webpage sponsors: selinafenech, draken_art, Jeffrey, celticwren, Lindsey Hodder, Lisa Cree and Carol Moore!
You are encouraged to tip the hostess, and everything I get goes towards time spent coding new features like the wall in: If you are EMG artist or EMG-Zine contributor, you may also donate your credits towards the site, including spending-only credits.
Think about what you'd like to see working next, too - would you like to be able to input the time you spent on a piece (20 min, 40 min, etc), and see that next to the artwork? Do you want to show the availability of your sketch and price, or comments, along with the picture? Do you want to see the prompts and claims moved to the webpage so they're easier to see and deal with? Do you want automatic watermarking of the images? The sky is the limit, and as soon as we've collected all the ideas, I'll run a poll to determine what I work on next.
Our next Sketch Fest it tentatively scheduled for July 16-17, 2010! This time seems to work well enough for most people - if you have any other preference, please speak up!
