(DARK's umpteenth pack is here... prepare to cream yourself!) To those people with good memories, this is almost the exact layout of the August 1994 Dark Collection. (Actually, we were too lazy to make a new layout.) Although much has changed over these last five years, some things never, such as last minute pack assembling and inactive senior members. Nevertheless, it's a real chore putting one of the packs together. You'd better enjoy it. Anyway, much has happened since the last Dark pack (released December 1998, if I can recall correctly). For starters, Acidic Soap and Velkro have done an admiral job revamping www.darkillustrated.org, and thanks to the tireless efforts of Sudden Impact, our online pack viewer has been improved. (Yes, we had ours up before iCE!) So, give it a try! Additionally, the FAQ was updated, and the memberlisting was trimmed once again. Also, don't forget to drop by #dark on EFNet and say Y0 Dud3!!! to our resident fatties. #dark is where it's at! It's everywhere you wanna be, baby! <cough, cough> Some key membership updates : Mongul has also joined the ranks of DARK Illustrated. You may remember his text-mode art he produced for Fire, where he went by the name Gunthar. X-Ray has retired from the scene, and thus Dark Illustrated as well. We'll miss his monthly contributions to Dark's VGA department. (Check his past artwork at www.darkillustrated.org) Nav Dhillon, AKA The 4th Disciple, has joined Dark once again, this time as a high resolution artist. Check out some of his work at www.geneticmalfunction.com. New Pack Release Schedule : We've decided that bi-monthly was just too difficult to maintain for any length of time, so through a complicated democratic process involving bobbing for apples and kicking a mountain-goat, we've decided to adopt the bi-yearly schedule. Unfortunately, this, our half-year pack, had to be pushed back one month, but we'll try to stay tight to our new schedule from now on! Final Note : Xypher is STILL gay. Sincerely, (In alphabetical order) Acidic Soap, Epitaph, Facade, The Green Hornet, Velkro. -────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────-- -────[ Filenames ]───────────────────────────────────────────────────-- The Dark files are still named as follows: XXXXX-##.DRK XXXXX represents five characters for artist name. ## is a hexadecimal number representing the number of releases that artist has made to date. This file naming system is working out just fine for us and hopefully other groups may find this new method useful with getting rid of the multiple alias conflicts. -────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────-- -──[ Member List ]───────────────────────────────────────────────────-- The-difficult-to-read-memberlisting-version-1.10!
