Weekly Artist Promo (7/18/2021)

[VibrantFox]

I've come to make an announcement!

It is once again time to let the people know if you are available for art work so writers looking for icons, covers, illustrations or potential collaborators come hither! And to my fellow artists drop a quick intro, your rates, samples and what kind of work you're open to!

---

Also I wanna ask if folks could give suggestions as to what category to put these into as I already know that most of the forums have the Promotions and Collaborations categories. Like I know most folks mute promos cause there's so many but I wanna get some light on art folks looking for work and not just writers looking for unpaid collabs. I need balance

Also obligatory self promo:

Hi, hello, hows it going? I'm Vi and I'm a freelance illustrator and webcomic artist. You can see me buzzing about the forums every now and again and I've got a handful of comics on Tapas (mostly on hiatus tho) At present I'm open for several kinds of commissions which you can find each type and samples here:

VibrantFox - Requests OPEN's Ko-fi Commissions

And some samples for here:

Not sure. And I’m not a mod. But I’m afraid that this is against some forum guidelines??

[Read before Posting] Forum Guidelines 3.0!

1. Do Not Solicit Sales on the Forums

Please refrain from trying to make any form of sales on our forums. Link dumping to a kickstarter or store front without contributing to the betterment of the forum will not be tolerated. If you want to link to your kickstarter, storefront, etc then please make a topic that will help the community (whether it's things you've learned, or questions about how to improve).

This includes advertising your own commission or editing services.

yes and no??? like i get the whole no sales thingy and fine rules but also if it's multiple folks in a thread and not just one wouldnt that be doing that whole "contributing to the forums" thing?

it's like a mass collab post so people can just network in one place rather than navigating a buncha duds or dead threads

if someone want to shut it down fine, i'm not gonna argue, i was just hoping for a workaround that still fits the guidelines. i've already spoken my peace on the subject but my assumption is there's no budging.

After looking into this idea in more depth, I only find this as a good idea. We are swarmed with people thinking that everything is free for them. We need to change that culture somehow
