Hey folks!
If you're reading this entry, why not take a minute or two to upload something to OGA? I'd like to expand our sound archive a bit, so why not contribute a sound? Here are a couple things you could do:
- If you have a mic, find a cool sound in the room with you and record it.
- For a quicker approach, head over to pdsounds, find something cool, and download it.
- Optionally, fire up a sound processing program like Audacity or Ardour and mess around with the sound until you have something even cooler.
When you're done, submit it to the site. If you're submitting someone else's work (or something based on someone else's work), please credit them appropriately.
Thanks!
Bart
P.S. If you're not feeling creatively inclined, you can also donate to OGA to help us commission more art. :)

First, a quick postmortem. I clearly didn't give the Mini-contest enough time for the news to get around. People heard about it, but mostly after it had ended, which means we got very few entries. However, the entries we did get, while few in number, are quite good. All entries are judged for creativity, execution, and effort, on a scale of 1 to 5. Here they are:
Little Shrooms, by Blarumyrran
These are the oddest looking mushrooms I've ever seen. They almost look like miniature trees. A very cool and creative concept. The downside is that the colors look a little desaturated compared to the tileset they'll be included in. This isn't a serious complaint, and it should be easy to fix.
Creativity: 5
Execution: 4
Effort: 4
TOTAL: 13
Bush, by qubodup
A solid bush that fits in well with the color palette. I'm particularly fond of the shading, which is executed very well. On the downside, it lacks a shadow, although again this is a fairly small complaint.
Creativity: 3
Execution: 4
Effort: 5
TOTAL: 12
Bush with Berries, by qubodup
As above, but with berries. Honestlly, they're too big, and they don't feel like they're really part of the bush itself.
Creativity: 3
Execution: 3
Effort: 5
TOTAL: 11
FINAL RESULTS:
1. Little Shrooms, by Blarumyrran
2. Bush, by qubodup
3. Bush with Berries, by qubodup

Greetings!
OpenGameArt.org is currently running another pixel art contest! This time, we're looking for small (32x32 or smaller) details that might be found in a nature setting, such as rocks, mushrooms, plants, flowers, vines, etc. The best entries will be added to the OGA Community Tileset (currently in progress).
The contest runs until 11:59 PM EST on September 1. Results will be announced 2 days later. You can read the complete rules here.
Peace,
Bart

Greets!
I've been doing some more work on the OGA community tileset. As you can see, I'm quite serious about making it happen, but it would be nice if I could get some additional contributors other than just myself. If you're at all interested, stop by and leave a comment on our Community Projects forum.
Peace,
Bart

OGA has commissioned some more exclusive art, this time an overworld RPG tileset. For the moment, it includes only the basics -- grass, ocean, forest, cliffs, towns, and a castle. As the months pass, we'll be adding more onto it. For now, you can find it here:

Here's a preview:
As always, if you have any comments or suggestions as to what to add to it, please let us know. We also would love to accept art submissions or donations toward expanding this tileset.
Thanks!
