About Elfwood
"Elfwood's mission is to provide a place for amateurs from all over the world to share, teach, and inspire a new generation of dreams."Of course, Elfwood isn't just a bunch of amateurs. The talent on Elfwood ranges from excellent to...pretty amateurish, sure...but some Elfwood members are actually professional artists and authors for whom Elfwood is a springboard and peer-critique forum for their fantasy work.

A Sampling of Elfwood Art
About DeviantArt
Angelo Sotira launched DeviantArt in August of 2000, making it a relative youngster compared to Elfwood. Rather than focus on a single genre of art, they have fantasy, still-life pictures, photographs. You name it and you might be able to find it at DeviantArt.You can find a slightly disjointed history of DeviantArt and information about its staff. It involves a near-collapse due to legal issues and a Phoenix-like resurgence. Dramatic stuff.
They also sell prints of their art if members give them permission.
DeviantArt
Some of its biggest stars!
DeviantArt has a broad range of art, covering several genres! Because it's so huge, this can only be a sampling.

Flynn_the_Cat says:
DeviantART. I tried Elfwood, and while it looks like it could be nice, it is not as easy to use and every pictrue is moderated before going up - which is fine, but can seriously slow things down and they had soem huge issues with mod opinions (ie is meant to be a fantasy gallery only)... I opened mine fine, then suddenly all my new pictures were being denied because of my *username*
But yes, DA is my main gallery, I've tried others but go back to DA.
says:
My daughter is active on Deviantart, so will have to choose that one :)
Good with both art and computers?
Try combining the two!
Trust me, it's not. Computer-generated art requires talent with both computers and art; and most professional-quality computer-art programs look intimidating at first glance.
Don't believe me? Pick up these books and try your hand at your own computer-generated art!
Which one is your favorite?
