Anybody need some 2D game artwork?
in Jobs
I have worked as a designer and art director in advertizing for 15 years, recently I have become fascinated with online game design. I am looking for someone to collaborate with on a game.

It's really cool that you're interested in getting into game art. I'd suggest not waiting for people to approach you (it's often hard to reach out when you're not sure about a project) and rather taking a proactive stance: Download the things people are working on here and post redrawn screenshots of what you imagine they could look like instead. This can be a wonderful design exercise too, because you can get as wild as you like :)
That's what happened with Desktop Dungeons, the game looked like this:
And then someone sent us a mockup that looked like this:
And helped define the resulting artstyle for the entire game. The same artist still draws most of our character portraits and sprites, it's been fun working with him :)
Yeah what @dislekcia said.
Usually there is a scarcity of people wanting to do art around here so just give it a couple of weeks. Or you can try and identify the programmers who make games without art and ask them if they would be interested in doing a collab. We had a competition recently and the submissions are marked with a "F" in front of them so go look through those submissions maybe you would want to do art for one of them.
I am one of the people who cant art but I am sadly too busy to do another collaboration :)
