lol i think you missed the point in 'mines post :P he meant that the members you are talking (spoc,sieg,luti...etc) dony have that much time anymore.. i mean hey.. its not the same as it was 5 years ago when "some members" were young still 12-16 years old. joined like since 2005 and even earlier. lets take an example shall we??

siegvar, idk how old is he. but back in the day when he was still know as "havoc creator" he did some pretty awesome sh*t in the lf2 world, awesome stuff that we all remember until this day.. in general "the guy rocked during his generation" but now the guy :'D grows up 20ish years old.. has a job.. girlfriend perhaps.. real life sh*t to take care of, AND THATS the reason why you dont see sieg (same example goes on bp,azriel,ramond,mh... the old guys) dont show up so often AND dont even post that often.

answer is simple the dont have the time like they used to.

also, yes doj want to learn dc, i know its not the same as spriting? but te first thing he should do is check out some tutorials. before i even started spriting i wanted to try dc. i checked out one single tut which gave me an idea on what this so called "dc" is. mh razens dc'ing tut. understood basics but then found out it isnt my style..
anyway doj should do the same.. check out some tuts, try to do something on his own. if he gets stuck somewhere he asks here we give him a solution he learns it and that mistake never happens again....etc and so on..

also for the guys who want to learn spriting as you mentioned, yes thru pm is useless. and as i said before dont i say DONT pm me and ask me how to sprite because you will be ignored.

-check out some tuts..
-try spriting over existing lf2 character.
-post the results.
-try as much as possible to work on the flaws everyone points out.
-try making a full character for a change.. dont get stuck with standing sprites, try different positions.
-repeat these steps until you are in a decent level.

-maybe someday a guy makes a live stream so you learn something new
-try adding some of your own touches be creative.
-sprite new stuff always and dont get stuck to one category.
-practice practice practice practice (i dont mean as until your eyes gets screwed up by the monitor, but when you have some free time)

-be patient, you wont get good in a day or so, its not frikkin fairy tail land. its takes time.

so yes, from my part.. i will try to help as much as possible for the new guys (and i am.. esp marko) tuts,explanations even live streams..
