@Pilestedt please revert one of the nerfs to my beloved arc thrower (100hrs just arc). The nerfs really feel over the top. Essentially got 30% reduced fire rare and range. Feels bad. Thanks for doing what you do! <3

@Sycra @YouTube @sinix777 This is tragic. I just found out about this from Sinix's video. I've been watching you both since the beginning. I truly hope you get your channel back and videos restored, Sycra. :(

@byanica @GenelJumalon Except "digital art" is generally used to describe digitally hand drawn drawings and paintings. This is not that. AI art is fine, but it belongs in its own category for competition.

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

@VexingLive @GenelJumalon Yes and no. Oil painting takes practice and AI art doesn't. It's a tool for sure... but if AI art is going to be entered into competitons they need to be AI art competitions plain and simple. That's the point.

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

@aetheredgefilm @GenelJumalon I'm sorry you don't see the problem. As a digital artist and MidJourney junkey I can tell you that refining prompts isn't difficult in the slightest and literally everyone does it. There's nothing skillful about it. It's not remotely comparable to time spent digital drawing.

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

@AceTheBooksmith @GenelJumalon If you understood you'd see the problem. As a digital artist and someone experienced with MidJourney I can say typing prompts doesn't require skill, especially not the skill required to digitally draw and paint. This should have been in an AI art competition is all..

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

@DrEihpos @GenelJumalon Saying that AI art takes skill is laughable. There's possibly a slight curve, if at best. I say this having made thousands of images with MidJourney. I've even tested this by typing random numbers and letters or single words into a prompt and gotten stunning results...

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

@JakiStow @GenelJumalon Right. It should be in an AI art competition, not a digital art competition.

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

@miraka_r @GenelJumalon No, it means they kept tweaking the prompt until they got better results, which is what anyone who uses MidJourney (myself included) has done. They're trying to make it sound like this is equivalent to the time spent learning to digitally paint well, which is a joke.

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

@JockeVanHelgen @GenelJumalon Why would they have rules about it? Most people in the general public have never heard of it...

[Dan Riley @DanRileyCG]

Some character named Maximus that I came up with... I think he's pretty cool. What do you guys think? I'll have to come up with a back story and draw his full figure. Much practice to be done! :D

My first best nine! I'm honestly shocked at the images that made it on my best 9. I don't agree with most of them. It's crazy to me that that many of the images that I spent some time on an actually liked didn't make it in here. Even more shocking us tha… https://t.co/rJ5WT2wczn
