I should have been more specific when I said I cant even create a basic room... :p I meant I cant even DRAW a basic room. Come on Mods, I created a Simpsons template for download with 40 rooms, 13 characters, 8 GUI's etc... I can use AGS. Its the drawing aspect of it that I cant do well. Just look at my room in the critics lounge.

But I need to start somewhere. Maybe I might join in on the next MAGS competition if the subject is right.

We cant forget Dualnames and all previous Mags competition hosts.

I may come across as an individual gamemaker, but I am no gamemaker. Atleast not yet.

Radiant, that is some skilled art, so I dont think you can counter Mods on this one.

try webattack.com, you might find what you need there.

Currently I am in a kick of wanting to create adventure games and it seems that this drive is a more permanent one than usual. So I try my hand at creating some graphics and creating a game and such. You know what? Just creating the simplest graphics or trying to follow the tutorials I have found are just so difficult. I cant seem to create a basic room right, EVEN after following a tutorial!

Yet, I see soooo many GREAT games out here and that have been released over the years such as Rob Blanc, Garfield, A tale of two Kingdoms, Shaila of the Sith, Fatman, The apprentice Games, JP Cosmo games, Charlie Foxtrot, The Cosmo Quest Trilogy, Larry Vales, Life of Donald Duck, Zak 2, Maniac Mansion Deluxe, Mind's Eye, Pleurghburg, All the VGA remakes and much much more that are just too many to name. And when I see all these games I think "WOW! These guys are great!"

Then I think of some of the older members and new members we have such as Mods, Erica Mclane, Roy Lazarovich, Helm, Phil Reed, Mr. Colosal, ProgZMax, SubSpark and many many others and how they worked hard to support the community in general.

Or even our porters such as Elektroshokker who is doing a find job or ETG and Steve McRea. We really owe a lot of thanks for the hard work they put forth.

Not too mention Chris Jones for creating AGS and sparking more interest in Adventure Games.

I just wanted to say thank you! If you guys have anyone you want to mentione go right ahead.

Now for my suggestions list.... Nah, just kidding

I think it was this: http://p094.ezboard.com/fdosuserforumsadventuregamestudio

But The archive machine shows nothing. And when you put that in, it transfers it to the Yuku forums.

I changed my request above for an artist who can do 320x200 since hi-res seems to be too time consuming.

So, I am trying to create a Star Wars Game using DOTT Style graphics. Unfortunately, I wont be using my graphics because I am horrible at it. Anyway, this is my first attempt at a DOTT style room. What else can I do to improve it?

OK. I am looking for some help here. All these years I have been trying to make a game. I have absolutely no graphical talent. NONE! I have had an idea for a Star Wars game for years now. I have scrapped my idea's and developed new ones. I have finally come up with something I want to make a reality and I need help, desperately. The game graphics are to be 320x200. I have come up with a story. I have developed puzzles and I have also decided on characters, GUI options and such. So the game idea is well underway. I also have (Crappy) game sketches to work with as well. Unfortunately I cannot pay anyone, but this is what I am looking for to begin with:

Main game idea: 320x200 32bit graphics. Based on Star Wars Coruscant Nights Trilogy. It will be a continuation of Jax Pavan and his gang. The graphic style I am trying to imitate is a cartoonish style ala DOTT or similar. The game will be freeware.

CHARACTER ARTIST(s): Looking for someone who can draw and color characters as well as animate them. Basic walking and talking is needed. Some expressions may need to be drawn as well. Must have the ability to work in a team. Must be able to draw alien type creatures as well. Looking for good animation detail for this one. 1 or more can fill in this position.

GUI ARTIST: I just need one person to help me design an animated GUI appropriate for Star Wars. This includes your basic action GUI with verb actions, An inventory GUI, Text GUI  Force GUI, Weapons GUI, etc... Just so you know, there will be more than one playable character and each will have different GUI's. Only one person is required for this. But I am accepting teams if you come in teams.

INVENTORY ARTIST(s): Looking for inventory artists to help me design animated inventory items based on Star Wars.

BACKGROUND ARTIST(s): Looking for an artist who can create detailed backgrounds and compile them into a room with the appropriate walkable area's and such. Must also have the ability to draw room objects and create some simple animations.

If your interested, Please PM me. DO NOT PM ME FOR OTHER POSITIONS. I WILL ASK FOR THEM WHEN I NEED THEM.  

When you apply, I will ask you for your sample work. Please note that the quality of the images must be comparable to DOTT or COMI. Thanks for looking. I hope we can come to some arrangement.
