[sharmans]

Thanks for joining us here on the Fan Art board. We are happy to have you here and look forward to seeing your artwork, or just to have you hanging around. The official Fan Forum rules are topped in the site-wide announcement. Please make sure that you have read and understand these rules, in addition to our Fan Art board rules, which are stated below. If you have any questions, this is the place to ask. Please read and and reply before you begin posting.

Please feel so free to private message either of us, if you have any problems or concerns. Have a great time on this board!

Your Moderators,
Tina (- Tina -) and Rella (ღEmrys)

• 1. Please consult this thread for an existing thread on the topic before starting a new thread.
• 2. Please do not quote pictures. It makes it difficult for posters with a slow internet connection to fully load their pages. If you would like to quote someone's art, please erase the image tags so that just the link is left.
• 3. Images larger than 800 pixels in width should not be posted. This will cause the message board borders in the average screen resolution to stretch, making the thread difficult to navigate. Please make thumbnails or post text links or your post will be edited.
• 4. Please credit your resources: brushes, textures, stock, etc., if you know where you got it from. Please do not post someone else's art anywhere else without their permission, even if you credit them.
• 5. Feedback is not obligatory, but it's very much welcome. I'm sure you all like to hear a word or two about your work. Constructive criticism is welcome too.
• 6. Lurking is okay, but posting is even better. If you don't have any arts to share, or don't have comments to make, please join us on the Off-Topic Chat thread.

Please fill out this form about yourself, old or newbies. We'd love to get to know you better

I am - Tina - , and Cursed Mind is Purple Nurple in case you don't remember.

Tina! Okay, I remember you!

And I definitely remember Purple Nurple, since we would get mixed up because people would see "purple" and make assumptions.

I look forward to posting more works. I think I finally figured out Photoshop, so hopefully things can only go up from here!
