about
the main aim is to bring artists and developers closer together and encourage contact and dialog
- a good search for existing free art
- focused on searching/linking rather than hosting
- index stuff from existing content repositories, project svn/cvs repositories and forums
- preview images / thumbnails of textures,models,etc
- tagging
- licensing infos
- contact info to reach the authors... (e.g. username + link to project forums or similar if no public email)
- focused on searching/linking rather than hosting
- a database for projects and people
- list/search artists and interests (concept drawing, model, anim, texture, 2d-art, texture, sound, music..)
- list/search developers and interests (programming languages, experience with frameworks,)
- list/search for projects using free art
- cross referencing / associations
- which people are involved in which project
- assets used in multiple projects (textures, models, sound, music,...)
