How To Submit Art For A Gamerplus Gallery

I am always glad to post art galleries featuring original art. Our areas of interest are gaming, science fiction and fantasy, music, and free culture. I sent an email to Shadowknight, about posting sketches of his character, Shadowknight. Here's what I wrote.

Great. Thanks for getting in touch. When you have 6 to 10 sketches you want to post as a gallery let me know.

Scan them in with a good camera or a computer scanner. Many inkjets printers have a scan function. I know you have a problem taking pictures with your phone so use someone else's phone or a digital camera. A lot of people have digital cameras they don't use any more because they take their photos with their phone. Try to find a place with good, even light and try to keep your shadow out of the picture. This is not a problem with a scanner.

Rename them so the title of the piece and by Blake Williams is the filename. If there is a preferred order start the file name with a number. 01-My first sketch title-by Your Name/Alias. Filenames are important.

Send them to me in an email. Also include any backstory you think is pertinent. Context is important for sketches like yours where there's obviously a story being told.

This is where I will post the gallery. https://home.gamerplus.org/galleries/
You can share a direct link to the gallery or to any gallery page.

Thanks
