    .:: What can we offer as a crew? ::.
    As a crew, Intricate Illusions is here to help our fellow members develop more capabilities in the graphic design field, whether it be small forum art (signatures and basic LPs), or designs that reach the level of a true experience, and skill within the field. We offer the ability to work with others throughout a large range of specialties and experience. We can guide you along the lines to further expand our knowledge, as well as your knowledge of all the graphical design planes.[/color]

    .:: What we expect of our members and applicants ::.
    We are looking for, and are comprised of, talented designers who have the ambition and drive to push their limits to become a better designer and to expand your level of knowledge in all fields of design.

    ALL applications will be expected to follow this exact layout. Any application not following this exact layout will be automatically denied and not considered.

    GFXSider, we have a chat channel on the same IRC server as Gamerenders, so that we can be in the Gamerenders chat while we are in ours. If you follow the instructions found in the IRC section of the forums, to connect to the Gamerenders chat, you can ask for one of us and we will tell you how to get into the crew chat from there.

    As for the other apps, thanks for the apps, and they are now currently under review. We should have answers for everyone soon.

    @ScopeJester
    Most of the crew agrees that your second and third signatures are your best, however the other 3 showed lack of flow, depth, and reality. As for your large pieces, neither of them were truly inspirational. Your first one just looks like an oversized signature (referring to the techniques and styling of it), and your second one shows very little detail to your C4D. I am sorry, but you are rejected, feel free to try again in 2 weeks.

    @Galione
    Your signatures reflect very little imagination coming from you, as well as reflect a feeling of being unreal, their colors, their flow, and their lighting are off. Your first two large art pieces would do well to follow the comments above, and as for your third large art piece, it is a commonly structured object, without much depth or design to it. I am sorry, but you are rejected, feel free to try again in 2 weeks.

    @AV Roxas
    Your text needs alot of work, and your signatures lack depth. Your first signature is basically all the same amount of blur except for the render. As for your large art, none of them are complex, and most of them lack flow and creativity. I am sorry, but you are rejected, feel free to try again in 2 weeks.

    Thank you all for posting an application.
