Unfair. If I used Artpad that would encourage me to stop. Because it would have hurt my feelings.
Besides. I could get a piece of paper, and a pencil, draw some squiggly lines and a messy blob that resembles a Hau, call it Tahu.
I could do that in MSPaint.
I could do that in Photoshop. (well I couldn't because I don't own it but still someone who does could)
I could do that in Artpad.
Artpad is just another program. Just because the majority of members aren't as skilled with it as some of the other programs doesn't mean you should try to get rid of it.
The Artwork forum is supposed to have artwork in it.
If people keep trying to get rid of certain forms of it, then that just ruins the variety...
Because I do not think that Artpad is clogging up the Artwork forum. All art there has had some effort put into it. Apart from some rare spam.
(BTW, I am not a user of Artpad. I actually don't post any art at all, but I have tried and I know how hard it is to use.)
Just giving my opinion. Oh and everyone is different so just because you find might MSPaint and other prograns are better for drawing and shading and such doesn't mean someone else (Remember that alot of people on this site are young children who are still developing their drawing skills.) can't find it easier for them to use Artpad?
Not trying to start a war or anything... I respect your opinions but I want to make the defence a little larger. In fact I would do what Mikerahk did and make an Artpad picture myself, but I just find the program a little too difficult for my liking.
TTK
EDIT: Wait! Does this mean its legal for me to protest that hand-drawn art should be banned since I'm sick to death of pencil smudges?
