h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm Suke_Kawamoto, researcher number 3977246, and am an artist. As well as photo manip, I also draw. I may have some problems reaching a scanner, but i can also draw straight on the computer.

Hi, thanks for volunteering to be a Community Artist. No probs about not having a scanner, just read on and see if you're still interested.

To join this volunteer scheme there is an art test. This is because the standard of Edited Entries on h2g2 is very high, and the Editors would like the illustrations to match this.

We would like you to choose two random Edited Entries using the Infinite Improbability Drive. You are asked to do a picture for each of them. You can look in the GuideML-PictureLibrary for the kind of graphics used in the past, use the entry for inspiration, and use the internet for research, but make sure that you follow the specifications that you can find on the CommunityArtists-What page.

Please produce just the main image for each title. For this test each image must be 200x200 pixels wide and have a black border that is one pixel thick.

Once the graphics are done, let the Editors know by Posting to this thread. The details for sending them into h2g2 will then be given to you.

If your pictures meet the Editorial standards then not only will you become a Community Artist but your test pictures will be uploaded to h2g2 and added to the entries.

Feel free to ask questions and good luck.

NB: The same rules of copyright apply to images as to text. If you are in any doubt as to what this means, please ask. Also, the Editors do not want to see photographic manipulations or montages.



Just let us know when you're done with the graphics. If you have web space available, post it here, and if not, we'll work out something else. Have fun!
