Artist Logos Database Feedback

I deleted previous post.
Upon careful checking,
there was something objectionalble about it.

Here is one I found in a Yahoo group,
by a morpher named Siloh.

I discovered Subtleness in the User Gallery

Can't remember where I encountered RSMM,
maybe the Delta Quadrant.

Another artist I discovered recently, Nolo.

I found someone who might fit in to the database (Catagory-3D Rendering)

Artist Name: cujoe_da_man
Artist ID:
Artist Logo:
Gallery Website: http://www.renderosity.com

here's an example of a 3D BE: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1511400&member
and a breast transformation: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1551001&member

Most of the art, however, seems to be nude female aliens (Twi'leks) and Star Trek women with some good looking breasts. All the art is females except for his/her early work.

I really don't know if this is the kind of stuff you're looking for, but I think it's BEA forum material.
I just recently found this art, so my knowledge is limited.

P.S. Good luck working on this database...I really thing this is one of the best ideas ever. I can only hope that the free artist gallery comes to pass, too. But that is a whole 'nother can of worms.

I like cujoe_da_man.
I have several of his in my personal collection,
including the two examples you provided.
Good stuff.

But he does not qualify for the database
because he has no logo, he does not sign his work.
Only those with logos go in the Logo Database.

If you will check back into the database,
to the 3D Render documentation,
you will see a long list of artists
who are left out because they have no logo.
cujoe_da_man, willdial, and many of the other
artists over at renderosity.com are included in that list.

And that is a shame,
because some of the best artists
are being left out of this database.

Personal rant:
Artists, please sign you work.
Take pride in your work,
and show that pride by signing it.

The good news is that many do sign their work
and we have many from renderosity.com included,
like Darkwing-Zero, GMan (Ghelmer), Willi Go.
Some of these artists also post over at
renderotica.com, be sure to check out that site too.

Here is another of cujoe_da_man that I like.

Will the artists without logos be on the future gallery? I'm just wondering about the importance of logos, other than to i.d. who the artist is. Will having an image in the proposed future gallery that has no logo violate some sort of rule of the BEA?

TheHerald · « **Reply #142 on:** December 02, 2007, 04:52:14 PM »

It has nothing to do with breaking a BEA rule (or even any netiquette).

It IS all about identifying who has done a morph or artwork based on the logo they (hopefully) placed somewhere on their work. Without it, there is very little chance of knowing who did it because styles for this kind of work is hard to distinguish between artists.

I consider myself a good example for this because I expend great effort to make the alterations I do to drawings look like the original artist did it. Not because I want the original artist to take credit (or the blame, take your pick) for it. I do it to make the altered art appear as aesthetically pleasing to the eye as possible by making the whole image "consistent" (for lack of a better way of putting it). IOW, changes should not be detectable without the original for comparison.

Therefore, without a logo on the art I've altered (or the filename change I do), you should NOT be able to know I did it if I accomplished my objective. If someone likes what I do, I want them to know how to ID something I did. Conversely, I don't want to take credit if I didn't do it. Some artists create their OWN nude and clothed versions of their pinups. I applaud that!

Now, in the render example above, I see "Wenderfellow" mentioned (a name I recognise for this render style) for art done by another name "cujoe_da_man". Same person? I suspect it. A consistent name and logo would avoid confusion.

To BE4me:
I wish to apologize for my tardiness for finding any missing artists who have logos that may be in my personal collection. I haven't forgotten my promise and I still intend to do it.

Well said TheHerald.

Also, any project has to have a well defined scope.
The scope of this project is to include those with logos only.
Without a scope, the project is just an endless black hole.

Wenderfellow is definitely not cujoe_da_man.
Wenderfellow's work is better.

That image above was cujoe_da_man's
"Magazine Cover" project,
over at Renderosity.com.
similar to the "Magazine Cover"
contest currently going on
in the Morphs's request forum.

Wenderfellow posts at Renderosity.com
but primarily at Renderotica.com,
where he has organized, and runs,
the annual Big Boob Rally.

Here is an older one of his I like.

Lately I have been using this one, but I have also been lazy and haven't signed the last couple of rounds of morphs.

Original Database thread link doesn't work, I forgot about it until i saw this i rarely come to the feedback forum. Huge undertaiking it is especially when artists like to change their logos I know I'm at least my 5th (I think i average 1 a year) although my switch hasn't always been because of I felt i should switch sometimes I'd forget what i named the file and couldn't find it.

Thanks for the information.
It appears that several of the old links
that connect the Database Thread to the Feedback Thread,
and vise versa, are now invalid.
I will get them fixed as soon as I can bribe a mod to help me.

Until then, The Artists Logos Database
can be found at the top of the Palette Forum.

Original Database thread link doesn't work.

Links between database and feedback threads are now working again.
Thanks Gonzo.

Thanks Pet for your fine contribution.
