UnConeD for AVS. http://www.winamp.com/components3/detail.jhtml?componentId=125209

One of my friends writes the greatest movie scripts. He almost went and filmed one of them this summer, but he got lazy.

LMAO Yeah, that guy is a real great artist! :D

For AVS probably Nemo Orange, because he really shows artistic sides to AVS. Sure, UnConeD may be the best, but I've never seen his presets as real 'art'.

I like the Depthcore team for wallpaper, those guys are super awesome.

There was a girl at my school who is going to a visual arts college now who painted some really professional and neat stuff.

i don't really like that conceptual art. It's ok, but I don't like having to read into pictures.

IMHO Salvador Dali produced a couple well executed paintings, but he was mostly a hack. He only gets attention and recognition because he was a constant media bug, always doing everything possible to attract reporters and rumors.

Because of him, more accomplished, serious artists like Rene Magritte stayed away from the "Surrealist" label.

A hack hmm? INMHO I think he was one of the best Surrealists, not a HACK. For example....he took a picture of Adolf Hitler, turned it sideways, magnifyed the part of the picture with the mustache, and made it into a Landscape. A rather SUPERB looking landscape at that. Hmm, strange, doesn't SOUND like a HACK to me....

Jackson Pollock is also a very good artist...Some of his work really makes me think...
