Advice on choice of 2D game art tool If you're new to making art and feeling your way around things then I wouldn't recommend paying big money for an art tool. Actually, if you can't say exactly how one pricey package would greatly improve your work, then you should not buy it. Oth...

Weekend Reading: Tales from Journal Land Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate the work you put into this, and I'm sure a lot of others do as well. I think it goes a long way towards helping the otherwise limited exposure of our journals. I also agree that the idea to highlight posts i...
