Well, if I'm not to late:

Metagalactic Void, Dark/Radiation Blast/flight defender. She uses an implant in her neck to harness dark matter (not that mystic mumbo-jumbo netherworld stuff ) and galactic background radiation.

MGV Back
MGV Front
MGV Side

Well I certainly hope not, cause if you are it means that I'm too late. Stupid work and lack of access to CoH screenshots

Happy birthday TA. Eat. Drink. Buy art!

The computer, duh!

/em wolf whistle

Nice job Sorah. I give them an A- (points deducted for the misleading title )

Nah, Hetrz is just busy with acting for money instead of for free.

Depends on how thick the blood is

Are you sure everything is covered? Cause it looks like one of her chestal-fun-bits is uncovered. Not that I mind

But she's a girl! What fun can you have with a girl that you can't have looking at silly drawings of a superhero being intimidated by a cat?

After 9 months of LOTR being out, Tolkin's spinning body will create such a force that the earth will colapse upon itself.

We will deserve it.

[/ QUOTE ]
Nah, the earth won't collapse. It's all part of the Renewable Energy Initiative. See what happens is big corportations take famous and popular works of fiction, bastardize them so they appeal to the lowest common denominator, and then turn them into video games. This causes the remains of the original authors of said literature to spin in their graves. Then, the REI attaches magnets to the rapidly spinning corpses and then places large coils of copper wire around them. Thus, we have a limitless source of free energy! Tolkin is only the beginning. Currently in development are The Adventures of Hucleberry Finn Online, Call of the Wild: The Revenge of Jack London!, and In Dubious Battle: Fight for your right to Commie.

...am I the only one who thinks the DC-3 in the background is sexier than the women in that video?


Plus, my corruptor Bitter Void

I've been pondering requesting another piece from you, but it's...unconventional and might end up being a pain in the butt. And it would be full on color, not just inks

It's a sad truth that people like that are everywhere. Doesn't look like he'll ever understand why plagiarism is wrong until it happens to him.

I'll no doubt miss most of the festivities, but I'll swing 'round Faultline after work and see if the party is still rolling.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Priceless!

I need to seriously clean that crap up

Oh, sorry about that. I wanted to see what would happen if I got soem elephant seals drunk and, well...

Kinda didn't bode well that you had so much trouble registering and uplaoding your artwork yesterday

I'm not blaming Lighthouse for anything, I'm just saying that it would've helped if Lighthouse had asked more question about what people want. PM some of the more prolific collectors and artists and get their suggestions on how to improve things. Or, failing that, create more suggestion threads and actually STICKY them so they don't get buried. Honestly, why was the last one not stickied?

Eh, it's a step. Maybe not a big one and maybe not in the direction we'd like, but it's a step none the less. The question is, will they keep taking steps?
NCSoft could just look at the negative responses here and conclude that the people here will keep doing what they're doing regardless of any attempt at creating an officially endorsed gallery. And they may simply decide that it's not worth the effort to keep trying until they find something that makes us happy.
Conversely, they may realize that they need far far more input from us before trying to create another gallery. And I hope that this is what happens, because there was only one thread where Lighthouse actually asked for input from the fan art community. They couldn't possibly get enough information from one thread to determine what would really make us happy.

Well, at the very least they're finally doing something for the fan art community. Hopefully it doesn't stop here.

Yummy yummy!

Except... Rowr wearing a bikini??

Maybe it's just me, but putting Rowr in clothes tends to enhance her sexyness. Lends and air of--mystery I guess--when some one normally depicted in her birthday suit covers up.

That *might* make sense... if there wasn't already Fan Art on the front page of the website.

[/ QUOTE ]
*shrug* I dunno. I'm a history student not a law-talking-guy, my take on it doesn't even really make much sense to me. My guess is that this all boils down to some sort of copywrite conflict that can't be easily (that is to say quickly, cheaply, and to most people's satisfaction) resolved, maybe because of the way the EULA is written.

I think part of the problem is that it's all in Legaleese, which is confusing and makes even the simplest of statements more complicated than they need to be. It would probably help us understand the matter better if Lighthouse could get one of the NCSoft lawyers to explain it in English.

While I’d love for us to be offering similar services here on the City of Heroes and Villains websites, the legal issues surrounding it make it prohibitive. So, our thinking goes, why not work with an affiliate site like Curse and spread the word of functionality they have to offer.

Color me confused about this...

NCSoft can't have images/art of characters that, according to the EULA, belong to Cryptic/NCSoft... because of legal reasons?

O.o

Mew?

That just sounds... backwards to me.

[/ QUOTE ]
It might have something to do with ownership conflicts. Yes, NCSoft/Cryptic do have legal ownership of the characters created in CoX (if I undersand the EULA correctly), but the artists also claim ownership of the artwork. That usually includes a statement along the lines of "unauthorized use or reproduction of artwork is prohibited" or some such. So then what you'd have is NCSoft/Cryptic asking for permission from artists to display artwork of characters owned by the company.

Apparently that sort of thing is bad. I dunno why, maybe the lawyers are scared it'll cause a rip in the space-time continuum that will consume the planet or something.
