Umm sunjo, thats the old banner you have, the new one nadim modified it a bit. And the one he was working for ZD v3 was waay advanced then v2.

Also I don't find amazing artists by judging them from their skin work only, I guess judging as a whole is better way to find out what is their skills.

I think UC, Oliver, Ass/ Matt, Smangii, Prophet, xeron are good designers, they are a lot I can name but meh.

Rofl, how can you tell me what I have, and what I don't?
I was there when ZD opened, I've got images from several versions of their banner, 4 in total.

Ash wasn't that good... ;P

I've seen maybe one piece by him that i htought was great, but other than that they've just been nice.

Alan is a much better artist than Ash. With his vector, painting, pixel, skinning, etc.

I think it's funny how people keep naming artists that haven't been active at proboards forums in months or years.

I don't see the humor, I suppose. I don't think since they were around to design, anybody (well, not TOO many at least) have come and shown them up and become a better designer. They did the stuff I liked with Proboards, so I consider them Proboards designers.

And I don't think anything Ash or Alan made was that technically amazing. They just did amazing stuff with the simplest of things, which I admire in a designer. You don't need to be flashy to be fantastic, which they proved.

ZD's skin was sweet. They should put it back up just so people can remember how sweet it was.

There isnt a "they" anymore, nick holds the main admin account, but the staff and admins dont keep in touch really, theres nothing left

are you serious? please, show me some of this work of ash's that you found amazing, but simple.

i'm not taking a stab at ash here either, as i've already said, he's a good artist, but alan is amazing.

I had to really look around, but this is something ash made:

Yeah, it's ok, but this was after alan had designed ssdv5.

which do you think is a better overall artwork?

hah, this makes me sound like an ass. which is not the intention.

[Beeeeeel]

...Ash still made pieces in 2006?

[jongos]

sigs, skins, etc.

don't want to argue anymore though.

[Beeeeeel]

Fair enough. I'm only going by his stuff from when Proboards was first starting. Always really innovative, something good.

I don't know, I might even be confusing Alan and Ash for who I like more. I just put them in the "SSD guys" category and leave it usually.

Oh, then I know of him. It's Thom by the way.

Lol, Alc just wanted to trick me with different aliases. Plailed.

Yes, but Nadim was his original name.

But yes, enough spamization.
