    Hey guys, you may have seen some discussion start up in the "Fh wallpaper" thread about an '09 project for the G&A forum to work on.

    now, our last attempt at a community project kinda failed (the flock22 resource pack), but i think we can do it if we set ourselves to things.

    As of now, lets use this thread to discuss the ideas you have for a community project.

    First idea;
    A forum, each of us can work on separate parts of it and with a little work from everyone, we would put one together.

    also, by katanga (i think?) he said that we should make one of those things where each of us does a small peice and we put them all together.

    post your ideas and discuss them here

    As I've said in a Visitor Message to you, I think each doing a small piece would work well.
    We'd just have to decide on the set size, and also have something of a theme (For example a certain colour, style, subject etc)

    It sounds like a nice idea, in theory, but large-scale collaborative work is difficult.

    Like Linu said collaborating with a large group is tough. But I like the idea of us each making something and putting it all together. And I believe it is called a sig worm where you make sig sized pictures or larger if everyone agrees and mash it all together. Pretty cool idea.

    I have an idea. What if we had someone start a large (like 3000x3000 pixels) work and they work in one rather tiny area and put their name in one corner of their part. When they finish, they pass it on to another member, and so on. I'm not sure how well this would work, and it would take at least two months, but it's an idea.

    People...listening to me? What has this world come to?


    Yeah, I thought we could make a mosaic image using a square artist tag...or something.

    Its called a gfx worm and I like the idea...Although it would be difficult to organize it all. If this takes off I'd be willing to help in the collab and to organize.

    What if we took a large wallpaper sized stock, divided it up into equal sections, and each person has free reign on that area. Then someone could out the areas together to reform the original picture.

    It would go a lot faster, but would still have a cool outcome.


    Personally I think we should do a couple small projects (like the one above) and at the same time slowly do a large project like a graphics worm.

    EDIT - I'm actually thinking of starting a wallpaper project...
