Sept 16th reminder

Epona · Sep 4th, 2007, 01:20 PM

I have a feeling that in my absence from the archive, the memory of this TLKFAA holiday has been forgotten. So this is a friendly reminder if you wish to take part in Brian Tiemann day on Sept 16th to do so by creating an image in tribute to the man to started this wonderful community. This will be the 7th year for Brian Tiemann Day. Pegasus chose the day to be Sept 16th because it was the birth day of the archive in 1996 when the entire site was revamped from the previous layout.

A Quote from Brian after the first holiday.

September 17, 2001
"Yesterday, many artists at fanart.lionking.org uploaded special pieces of tribute art thanking me for keeping the site running and improving. They called it "Brian Tiemann Day". Wow... that's quite an honor, and I was very touched by it. I hope everybody knows now why I love this fandom."

When I joined TLKFAA, places like deviant art, photo bucket had yet to exist. Uploading images onto the internet cost quite a bit for an account. I was so lucky to have found TLKFAA that freely let me post my fanart. I grew to love the community and I grew as an artist. Digital art was really a new thing to the world. To this day I still say to people the skills I learned doing years of fan art better prepared for my professional career in game art and design. I never knew that I'd be sitting here 8 years later still enjoying the same thing, TLK fan art.

For all artists of the archive... we go threw popular fads, old artists leave while new ones fill there places. But still, the archive goes on... strong as ever. All because of one man. Brian Tiemman, the man who started it all.

spread the news and remind others of this important day! Remember to upload your tribute on Sept 16th, Brian Tiemann Day!

well welcome back firstly xD haha
and i read in the pic u uploaded on your page that last night was your first time in sketcher so, im glad i was there too

hehe

anyway..on topic! thankfully Brian Tiemann day hasn't died! but its probably not as flourishing as it once was, what with most of the older artists being gone and what not
but it really is a great Archive 'holiday' and we should all participate :3 i know i haven't yet >.> *shame* and i really should this year >.>
and thanks for the reminder, as i never really knew the official day

-starts plotting-

Celia · Sep 10th, 2007, 03:30 PM

I am going to have to do this. I forgot to do it two years in a row now, and I feel lousy about it. :C

But YEAH. Due to the fact some of the older artists have left, the spirit is a little deflated about it. I think we need to post stuff.

Razzi · Sep 10th, 2007, 05:27 PM

Well I'm 100% in on it.

And I reminded two of my non-Lilymudding TLKFAA friends about this, they're full on board too. So that's 3, at least. XD

KanuTGL/Axell · Sep 11th, 2007, 09:55 AM

Ah, I gotta remember this! :O *notes in calendar* I have about zero check on dates atm... xP

**AirGuiTaR** · Sep 11th, 2007, 10:53 AM

Epona, thanks for making this reminder!

I wont be around the 'net for a few days, so Ill miss out. I'm going to try to make it up to Brian later though

Epona · Sep 11th, 2007, 06:45 PM

yeah, I fear some people may have forgotten T_T if only a few post something its better then nothing ya know.

**Timitu** · Sep 12th, 2007, 03:01 PM

You know. I am going to stick this for now cause I think it is an important day for everyone. Hope that is ok. Let me know if you did not want this as a sticky and I will remove it but I just thought it is something that is for the whole archive to remember. And like you said, it is a special day. Perhaps if those that are interested in this want to share on here the pictures they make for Brian this year or any year it would be neat to keep for even new members who do not know much about such a holiday.

Skyler Duma · Sep 12th, 2007, 03:02 PM

I'll see if I can do something for this, I got my hands tied with all this stuff for the past week. Long trips like everywhere... I would work on the picture with a sketchbook and finish it but my scanner isn't working, I'll see if I can fit in some time to pull out my tablet. = ) Thanks for the reminder Epona.

btw Great to see you around! (I've been your big fan since I joined TLKFAA) X) haha well see ya around. *waves*

unali · Sep 12th, 2007, 07:35 PM

Koudoawaia · Sep 13th, 2007, 04:58 AM

Epona I'm so glad you posted this reminder =) Was almost afraid it'd be forgotten this year and it's good to see you around again^^

Epona · Sep 15th, 2007, 08:51 AM

Thanks for making it a sticky Timitu

I really appreciate it.
And I suppose I'll post a drawing I'm pretty proud about for BT-Day

Here are some images of Brian in case you need a reference BT's Blog

Happy early birthday unali XD

snowlprd31 · Sep 15th, 2007, 08:56 AM

AeroCat · Sep 15th, 2007, 09:34 AM

Yeah, I'm definitely working on something for tomorrow...needs some work, though. I think Brian deserves his holiday this year more than ever!

jwalraven · Sep 15th, 2007, 03:11 PM

I didn't have a chance to participate in this last year. Can we portray Brian as other animals like a meerkat?

That's awesome Killress but I don't think Brian will be a taker. He belongs to all of us.
