Greets! A number of people have been asking how someone who isn't an artist might help OpenGameArt.org expand their archive. As you may or may not know, we only archive media from projects that have specifically given us permission to do so, regardless of the license used. At the moment, we have permission to archive art from three projects:
- Widelands ( http://wl.widelands.org/ )
- OpenArena ( http://www.openarena.ws/ )
- Spring 1944 ( http://s44.koshi.homelinux.net/ )
So if you're up to it, download the artwork from these projects (generally included in the source distributions), package it up an an organized fashion (being sure to preserve licensing information), and submit it to the site. Do as much or as little as you want, even if it's only one piece of art -- every little bit helps! Edit: The reason I've only named a few projects here is that some artists and developers would prefer that their work not be used elsewhere. While it might be legal to archive work in those cases, I would prefer to respect their wishes. If you'd like to archive work here that's from another project, please get permission from that project first.
Thanks!
Bart

OpenGameArt.org is currently hosting a pixel art contest, which ends on August 1, 2009! We are looking for hair, faces, clothes, accessories, and other modifications to our base sprite sets. The entries don't need to be extensive, just cool. Here are the sprites you'll be working with:
By: Migel Angel Hijo de Pedro
By: Mandi Paugh
Note: These are not the full sprite sets -- they're just previews! The full sets can be found on the contest rules page.
The winner of the contest will receive US $100, with a second prize of US $50 also available. Interested? Stop by and read the rules, then submit an entry!
