This is true. How do I know? Well, I've spent a lot of time looking at it recently. It's hard to find, in fact DeviantArt is the only surviving early 2000s art website, otherwise I've found art contest websites and even people's personal websites back when people had those with uploads of their TERRIBLE art. Obviously the art is technically very impressive, but it looks bad.Nowadays it's so much easier for people to make better art because of the technology. Of course this is just internet fan art, otherwise nothing has changed. 2000's cartoons look great, because artists worked on them. 2000s internet fan art looks bad because people who could draw just weren't really posting online I guess mostly, I don't know. The point is not a single piece of internet art from ~2005 looks even decent. It's all very ugly.
People were just happy to create things and find friends back then. The internet was just better.
>>83465930OK. Are you able to hold a conversation about media you like and enjoying it?
I forgot the point of this. The point is that technology will one day make it easier to make video games or something. Or things in general or something. I forgot that was the point because it's not a very interesting point.Interestingly I did WASTE a lot of time looking through lots of ~2005 internet art though.Some of these websites it's so funny. Someone has a WHOLE website just for their art and you click the images and they're just awful, but they take it so seriously, and technically yes it's impressive but not compared to what we can do now. And this frankly does extend to professional things as well. Lots of comics from the 1990s look pretty bad.
I think another thing to think about is that. We are seeing art that's never been seen.When you look at a modern fanart digital image, you're seeing something that could have never existed before. No one could have drawn that image before hand and no one did, not even remotely close. It happens slowly overtime so I might not notice, but you'd shock everybody if you showed them modern internet art 25 years ago, it'd be very shocking. Just a single page from one of the boorus.But the problem is I can't review it yet. Something needs to be 20 years old to pass the final test, the test of time. Living through one generation. And 2006 is coming, which means 2006 stuff is up for review. And what came out in 2006!? THAT'S RIGHT, World of Warcraft, because WoW may have been released 2004 but the 1.12 version people care about is 2006. So that's up for review watch out for my review of that.The only things from the early 2000s people still care about are Halo 1, Halo 2, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars Prequel memes. And that's the whole list, literally nothing else. I'm so hungry.
This thread is better than 90% of the garbage on this board right now but I know literally nothing about this despite being born in the 90s. Sorry OP, have a bump.
