I have been known to trace photos though, so I'm not really an illustrator *sigh*

Seriously? You guys are going to defend tracing a photo and calling it an illustration? If it's one part of a composition, or has some significant stylistic changes on your part I could see that. How is tracing a photo being illustrative? That's not being an illustrator, that's being an Illustratorâ„¢ operator.
I'm not trying to be an ass, but damn, playing a piano concerto on a guitar doesn't make you a song writer.- it doesn't make you a song writer, it makes you a musician.arthur
- Tracing doesn't make you an illustrator, it makes you a draftsman.BRNK
- put up a site BRNKarthur
- Working on it. I'm not insulting you, you have some really nice stuff. I just wouldn't call tracing people's faces "illustrating", that's all. Your work obviously has a lot of thought put into the design and color choices.BRNK

- "Portraiture"? Sure.BRNK
- no offense taken, i just think your definition of illustration is narrowarthur
- I could see that. :) To clarify I come from an art school background, so I feel Illustration needs to convey an abstract or concrete idea. I guess I run into problems as to what to call drawings/artworks that are decorative and for print, but don't necessarily tell a story.BRNK

- WORD to Arthur. Before computers illustrators would trace images to use as reference using a lightbox. They were "illustrators" just as those who trace on a computer are. If you want to represent something accurately there's no better way of doing it than tracing.r3mote

So, Krassy... I asked before but you didn't answer... how comes you removed Me/ Studiospooky from Fairspot? I don't mind if your answer is "Because you're shit" or something, I was just curious because you took me off but then said in a thread here a few weeks back that you needed more people on there.
