Austin's Sprotchy Motherlode
Introduction
Here's the straight scoop. If you didn't
get here through me or LD5,
you are
either very lucky or very lost.
If you don't know what LD5, a.k.a. "Da Dome", a.k.a. "Sprotchy Central"
is, you are definitely lost.
But fear not, for like most other "art-eest" sites, you need not be of
a certain age to be here.
Why is
this site so... bare?
Three reasons. Less
loading time, I find coding
very boring, and it takes time away from adding insane amounts of
content. Sure, I could easily steal pretty-page material from others,
but that goes against my "pure" nature. If you have code and want me to
have it, feel free to send it my way - I'll be sure to credit you and
all that jazz.
HEY! Why
can't I see the videos?
Some videos are
supercompressed in .wav format for the safety and comfort of your modem,
while only .mov or .wma files can be played within the average
browser.
Unlike some other art sites,
I show mercy on the 56k modems. Simply right-click the name and save it
to your hard drive.
What is "Sprotchy?"
I'm glad you asked.
There is no clear-cut definition, but it is best used to describe clean macro and/or stomp-themed
artwork that elicits a pleasurable response both in the facial, and,
er... masculine regions. There is no scientific explanation as to why
giant clawed feet are capable of eliciting such a reaction, but so far,
no one has given a raptor's arse. In a way, "sprotchy" is similar to
"giggity", a term popularized by "Family Guy" in which such a strong
impulse of pleasure is sent to the brain that it is overwhelmed and the
remainder must be sent to the, er... masculine regions.
Are you
an "ar-teest?"
In the sense that I can
draw better than stick figures, yes. However, my style is greatly
influenced by comics of all sorts,
and I tend to favor quantity over quality. This is in part why my
skills mainly lie in photography, where the art is already there, and
all I need is good timing and the right computer programs to convert
the art into an easily-viewable form.
Will you
draw for me?
Sure, I'll do
commissions. Just ask via AIM
- I love to chat. I won't even charge
money, but that's mostly because my art isn't good enough to pay money
for anyway. You can check the section "Stuff I Actually Made" for
details. Art trades might give a good boost to my creative energies,
but no guarantees. I'm a better remixer than anything else.
Disclaimer
(Rules
you must follow to be worthy of gazing at the wonders within)
1)
Do not claim this junk as your own, because for the most part, it's
MINE.
2) If by some amazing coincidence, anything here was made/posted
earlier on a different macro-themed site,
PLEASE notify me (with
link as proof and date uploaded if possible) so
I can promptly remove it.
3) Do NOT, absolutely NOT
mention this site anywhere else.
This is my top-secret motherlode for a
good reason: rarity sends value skyrocketing.
4) Sing praise of the GreatTM
Dinosorceror,
without whom
this site
would not be possible. SING, I say!
So, without further ado...
