so I was rejected from http://www.computerlove.net I guess I am not as illustrative or graphic design oriented as they would like. Whatever. so any of you know of a forum similar to CL, that would cater more towards the fine artist, or illustrator type?

Computer Love is a good idea, but the stuff they feature is too trendy and not all that good. I think it reflects the creator(s) taste(s).
I tried to showcase some typefaces I was working on. They told me I had to make them free for download. Yeah right...
Don't get discouraged... you'd just blend in with the masses in a place like that. Too many people there.
my 2cents anyway...

Right I feel the same way. they seem to be very particular about who and what you should be I think there should be no restraints what-so-ever. Complete design freedom. Well thats what personal websites are all about. i was just looking to get some exposure through computer love.

I've spoken to many people who got turned down for exhibitions on CL, and in every case the work was stunning. CL were fools to turn it down.
My own extremely mediocre exhibition was turned down, but that's more than fair enough. The work wasn't all that good anyway.
You can give YH a try (www.yayhooray.com) if you're looking for a new forum.

I sent in some Tshirt designs that had had some interest from Gimme5 and Cant Skate and they rejected them. I was miffed.

the hand drawn stuff is lovely, but it hasn't translated well into flash. you should work more on the look of those.

wig obviously likes it.

Everyone gets rejected now and again... and you should take it either of two ways... be extremely pissed off but build from it... or think fuck 'em coz they don't know what they're missing!
You'll probably think I'm going to say you should think the first, but i vote the SECOND!
