The Illuminati

September 6, 2008, 3:49 PM

If you've read this far, then you've already made a very wise decision, my friend!

The Illuminati isn't just a graphics clan, we are THE graphics clan. A group of truly gifted and wisened graphical artists who have collectively dominated Final Fantasy Forums' graphics scene since the get go. We're always willing to take on any kind of person with any kind of graphical skill. Whether it be sigs and avatars, buttons and banners, wallpapers and skins... absolutely anything. Whether you're just starting out or you've been making graphics for years, all are welcomed here with open arms.

Our aim as a graphics clan is to collectively grow as graphics artists and develop our skills by learning from each other and putting our collective expertise together in graphics competitions. So far, The Illuminati have won more public graphics competitions than La Primavera and we're even on inter-clan graphics competitions. With your help, we can take The Illuminati's accomplishments even further from La Primavera's reach. With the group ethic constantly applied that we've strived under so far, and enough effort, we will surpass them in every way imaginable.

The Illuminati has a dedicated members base with a large portion of Final Fantasy Forum's own staff members being actively involved. We have members who have done work such as skins, buttons, and banners for several other forums, so there's almost always something new that you can learn from someone in The Illuminati, and we're always helping each other out.

Within The Illuminati's clan area, we have several threads that are geared towards helping you, and getting to know each other better. Such threads include our Useful Resources Dump where anyone can post anything that they think someone will find beneficial, whether it be a tutorial or a link to a downloadable brush set. Also, in order to get to know our fellow clan members better, we have the The Illuminati Contact Thread where anyone may post their MSN/AIM handle or their Facebook/MySpace address so everyone can try to stay in touch outside of the forums.

Waste no more time! Apply in this thread today if you're genuinely interested in advancing your graphics skills and being a part of a dedicated clan that is genuinely enthusiastic about helping you to progress and making the best of our talents together. If you're new to graphics designing and would like a place where there are others like you, where you can get help and guidance, then this is place place for you. Likewise, if you're experienced in graphics designing and would like a place to converse with those of similar experience, where you can learn advanced skills from each other, then this is also the place for you.

We're open to anyone with even the slightest skill in graphics designing. The Illuminati is for everyone, and everyone is for The Illuminati.

To apply in this thread, simply make a post featuring some of your previous graphics work whilst stating how long you've been making graphics for and how high you rank yourself as a graphics artist.

Hey, Casanova, I'd like to join the Illuminati. Here's a sample of my work:

Avatars

Signatures

I'd rate myself at about between a 4 and 5, since I've really just started meddling in the graphics area. So, let me know what you think!

I would absolutely love to join! I've been doing graphics for about three years, but I only had Paint for the first two years so they don't really count. *sweatdrops* I currently work with PSP6, but am planning on getting something better soon.
Anyway, here come the examples... not very good, I'm afraid...

Banners

^ The letters "Aekea" were supposed to be transparent, but somehow my PSP6 hates transparency... =/ Done for the Aekea team in Gaia's Rejected Olympics '08. Yup, I was with Aekea! A-E-K-E-A! Black n' white will win teh fight! Come on, help us through our darkest night! You know the rest... XD

^ For Xyran of POL.

^ OMG! Teh adzors! Well, it's one of the best examples of my banners, so it can be here, right?

Avatars

^ For myself. I used to make avatars all the time when I was younger... XD

As for how I rate myself... pretty bad. I knowe some nine-year-olds who are better than me actually. =/
