does anyone know when these we stop having apps i mean we have quite a few members so far (including me ) and i think we should take a more elitist approach and make new applicants have won a place,either 1rst,2nd or 3rd in sotw so we dont get the useless ------s with 1 month experiance applying and it would show how much people would want to join us with spending time creating a good tag just so they could join us.
I like that Idea of accepting only applicants that show potential in the SOTW or the LAOTM Competitions but the hard part is that most of them are already in Crews so asking them to leave is not something that we as AG do Accepting or even getting close to accepting applicants who have had that little knowledge about photoshop is something that I wouldn't do, but it all comes down on Rena and or 614 Also on a side note, I haven't won any SOTW or LAOTM in my life..and when I came into AG I was barely good at Tags / LP's but something about me clicked at Rena and I got in... but I am an exception I have gotten a lot better -Zain
I've placed in SotW (can't remember if I won or not, but I know I got at least 2nd), but honestly it's the staff choosing the winners for SotW. No offense to them, I love them, but they aren't a graphics crew. They know what looks good, but some of them don't know what to do to make it. It's slightly biased. I don't like the idea of SotW, but I like the idea of something new. We should have some sort of design that we decide on. The people trying out must create something with those speciifications, so we know they can work well under difficult tasks (mostly tasks that they aren't used to). I dunno. But not SotW.
i say we kick him :tongue: ive placed in a few but not recently, kinda given up after that realism one...
yeah rena's idea was good lol you might not take this serious but like en exam sorta thing like rena said where the person must work to a deadline with excact specifications so that we know our artist is good
I agree with you Rena, Every new Applicant that applies to AG must make something that is off their limits. As they will probably have to in the future! What they make can be decided by the crew , as once we get their Application and see what they are capable of One of us (the crew members) can open up a new topic with a few ideas of what it is that they should do to show that they are capable of going to different means in order to prove how good they really are This can be a hard task for everyone (old or new to PS) I say go with Rena's Decision on this one
