The Folder System

The info on each art piece starts out by saying its from a particulary folder. I will explain this system now.

I have three different "Collections" of art. The first is "Pre-Photoshop". Anything in this folder was drawn and colored with a program called "Photoplus". It was a cheap program that came with our first scanner. Also, any art posted as being "Pre-Photoshop" was drawn before 2003. Everything from 2000-2002 is in this category. All of this art is really old, though, not without its charm.

The second collection is called "Post-Photoshop". This art constitutes everything from 2003. Most of this art is really well-done. The photoshop program does a much better color job than the previous. Even though everthing from this collection is three years old, I still love it. Around the end of August 2003, I quit drawing because the Anime Estrogen Brigade had broke up.

I did not publish any art in 2004 or 2005. My next art collection showed up in June 2006.

This new collection is called "Alpha". This includes all of my latest and up-to-date art. Though, currently, only four pics have been posted. More are in the works, but I want to develop a little more before I start posting.

The Pre- and Post-photoshop pics were compiled into a large folder on my computer called "Old". Next they were grouped into 2-3 sub categories:

Brigade- includes AEB related pics
Elly- includes all pics of Elly from the AEB
Fanart- All art related to copyrighted characters
Gifts- All art given to and given by me
Rae Rae- includes all Rae Rae pics
Random- includes IRL pics and random people pics
Sketches- all b&w or developmental pics
ZS- All Zachary Surge related pics

The "Alpha" pics are now in a folder called "Alpha" (duh) and only two folders are currently being used.

Brigade- includes all AEB and RPG related pics
Photography- includes photos taken by me

There is one final "secret" collection. This is called "Project M". No art exists in this folder yet.

Happy Explaining!

News concerning the fate of my original RPG character.

Just to let everyone know, Zachary Surge as he appears on DeviantArt, is no longer with us. He, along with his offspring, will no longer be played out as characters on the AEB. The full story on his death is at the AEB here [link]

I will, however, continue to post all of my old art pieces until I finish posting all of them. Please note, if a pic is a pre- or post-photoshop from a folder, it belongs to the old storyline. The exception is art from the "Fanart" and "Random" folders. They do not contain ZS related pics. "Gift" pics to me feature ZS as he was, so most will be from the old storyline. "Gifts" to others may sometimes feature ZS as an added character, but for the most part he isn't.

If you were a fan of my art and don't want to see it disappear, then don't worry! Even though I don't have very many "Alpha" pics (pics from 2006 on), I will continue drawing and will eventually introduce a new character that has no ties with any other timeline.
