I've just made a blog post over on Free Gamer about the lack of a strong copyleft for artists, and a potential solution (which I'm currently arguing in favor of in a discussion on the CC community mailing list). As usual, I love a good controversy and I'd be interested in hearing your comments. Here's the link:

Please reply to me there so I don't have to keep track of the replies in two places. :)

Just a quick heads-up, Charles Gabriel has made some major updates to his 48x48 face sets (which go with the 16x18 pixel art characters) here:
/content/48x48-face-template
/content/48x48-faces-1st-sheet
/content/48x48-faces-2nd-sheet
/content/48x48-faces-3rd-sheet
/content/48x48-faces-4th-sheet
You can check out the complete set of 16x16 RPG artwork here.
Peace,
Bart

Since the last Weekly Challenge was quite a flop with only one participating artist, I've created a small survey to find out how to improve our Art Challenges. I'd be very grateful if some of you took the time to help us.
You can find the survey here: http://geekchimpz.com/surveys/index.php?sid=56467
EDIT: The Survey is closed now. Thanks to every participator. It'll take some time to analyze the result.
By the way, the new Weekly Challenge is 'Mobile Devices'. You can find it here.
You can vote for the Mobile Devices challenge (due dec 16th). The entry with the most favorites wins.

WTactics is currently offering a chance to have your likeness on a WTactics card in order to raise funds for the continued development of thier project. From their website:
Give our artists a picture of you or your beloved one and become a part of the game! The artist will create a nice portrait with your chosen class, clothing and equipment, making it an everlasting part of our game and the open source communities, turning it into an immortal memory.
The game will be freely available for millions of people for both download and online play as well as pro-printing. Let’s face it – you have never been given the chance to become a part of an ever expanding fantasy world. We don’t need to convince you that this is the perfect gift to yourself, or that you could surprise somebody you like by letting us create his/her portrait and be included in the game.
The opportunity to be included in the core and first set of WTactics is a one time limited offer. We have decided to only make this offer to the 20 first people that place an order. The number to the right shows you how many slots are currently available. Put in perspective to the whole internet you’d be pretty unique if you manage to grab one of them.
Once the slots are filled nobody else will be included in the core release. In the future we will continue to offer these services for coming expansions of the game, but not for the core, and not as cheap.
In addition, and as an option, you will also become immortalized by getting your name/nickname listed in our public thank you-section with a link to your personal page, and a unique ID-number associated with your piece of art, connecting the artwork to you and also showing what slot you got.
If you haven't already seen the art for WTactics, you can check it out here on OGA, or see the cards on their website. I'll be taking them up on this myself, so if you're reading this, there are no more than 19 slots available. :)

I fixed a couple of old and really annoying bugs this evening:
- The audio play and stop buttons now work on the second and subsequent browse pages.
- The missing audio previews (there were a lot of them) are there now.
- You can now see the complete titles of art submissions by hovering over them. Additionally, if you use a modern browser, titles that are cut off should end with ellipses (...).
- If you're using IE and running into bugs, installing this plugin might help.
