Thank you Newgrounds for moderating AI art!!
I applaud NG for making it clear what this community is all about. It is very appreciated. I work very hard on my paintings. Some of my works have been in various stages of completion for months or even years! There is no way an artist such as myself can keep up with a robot churning out 1000s of images daily. What is also nice is seeing all of your art! Art is so much more than the final image. It's about your thoughts, your characters, what shows and games you are enjoying, feelings, mood, atmosphere, etc. The humanity behind your work does not go unnoticed and is even more splendid in these trying times.
Shout out to the staff and your wonderful artists in the art portal. 🤍

YES! My sister would agree with you 100% (She's also an amazing artist and I remember you did an art piece that reminds of her a lot) Art is more than just the final piece as you said, the thoughts, emotions and motivation put into the piece is what it's all about. I don't like AI art but understand it's appeal to those who like it but compared to proper art products the were made with full on time and effort is so much more satisfying.
