I agree with Dustin I would love for this forum to become more active on the Illustrators side!
As one of the rare members here who submits to the Illustrators I've always found it a challenge to find any advice, tips or experiences from fellow artists. I hope now that the sign up glitch on the forum has been fixed that new people will join since it has been pretty dead around here!
I got Semi Finalist in the Illustrators contest about a year and a half ago, but haven't entered much since (my last two entries were lost I think since I never heard back at all). I'm just curious if there are still rankings like the writers side (when I got the Semi Joni said the rankings for the Illustrators were something new they were starting). If so I'd love to learn more about the process and what key elements you look for when deciding what art makes it to the Finalist round.
Thanks and welcome aboard to the forum and as the new judge!
