For awhile now I haven't really posted on Sydlexia, (well; i never really posted seriously to begin with HEH)
BUT
well
the spriters resource is probably the biggest site on the net for sprites from videogames, it's also one of the biggest communities for custom pixelartists on the net as well (the website itself now hosts sounds, textures and 3d models)
they recently opened up a blog
http://vg-resource.com
the guy who organizes that part, Grooveman set about on adapting the '30 days of videogames' into a kind of community based writing project, where everyone was free to pick a day and submit an article. I've chosen to do about five articles for it, and the first one is already up.

i'm really kind of trying to drum up support for the whole ordeal and not just my writings, there are some hilariously bad articles (portal) and some really good ones (ico) so check it out
