TAC AND LITERATURE EXPANSION - some worries - ppl who come to chan may not talk to artists, different likes/dislikes - not all artists interested in art - create an "oogly" split - Likes - good, but must keep separated - Sister site possibility? - well received - separate page and separate channel on IRC Note: I think the general consensus is: Yes, a Fiction Corner. NO, not on TAC. I motion that Elia take charge of TFC project - since she brought it up to me first - and all willing volunteers report to her later. All in favor say aye? ADVERTISEMENTS - Ads, consensus: LOOKS good. - generating more clicks WHAT TO DO WITH FUNDS / HOW TO GENERATE MORE FUNDS - generating revenue other than ads, what to do with funds - commission board - "request for Hire:" status board: reff names, and free status - free for hire, too busy, really bored...fees/prices - commission reffs and part of money goes to TAC - requested pictures - nominal fee for requesting certain REFFS and VIP treatment - art book published - how artists cut corners, use photoshop - book of critiques and profiles - auctions/donations - online art auction at TAC - tutorial book - go to cons and promote art corner - "how we did it" book / creative process book - note to ppl: please click banner to support TAC after you had critique - TAC t-shirts. boxers ^_^ - auction a REFF: highest bidder can request a pic QUESTIONS - publish online manga? - who will do bookeeping? (for publications) - what about those w/o scanners? (send in art) - REFFs doing professional web designing PROBLEMS - reffs who take requests for free. conflict with fundraiser? - crit book would not sell well SYSTEM / ORGANIZATIO - too many requests for one REFF. unfair workload - random reff critique - request ONE reff - choose three, get one (in order of preference if possible) - schedule: assign certain reffs every week/update - category system: these REFFs do this category. if you choose that you are in this category, you get one of these REFFs SUGGESTIONS - send out a notice for everyone to send in more detailed availability times - don't put frequently requested REFFS on the random list - commission/charge for specific critiques from specific reffs - COMPLETELY anonymous critiques RULES - reffs have ultimate say - loose/no rules if possible - no hentai - no porn. yes artistic nudity. REFFS have final say. - no flames - Lore have final say in rules. can confer with REFF. but not to public - too many opinions IDEAS and ADDENDUM Note: too many ppl in meeting...hard to keep track People off topic. incentive to stay on? Messageboard Meeting? webpage for #artcorner stats, funnies, etc? artcorner.net - Positions? - Pres, VP, etc. - secretary: keeps logs, keeps goals, sends out mesages - President - Sets goals, in charge of all operations, etc *** END LOG *** minutes taken by Lorelai Wu
