About Achilles Canvas:

 There once was a popular Google Group named GPA -- Gay Poser Art -- which had a focus on 3D digital art of interest to the LGBT community. It featured various works created using the apps Poser and DAZ3D. There was nothing wrong with that and Poser and DAZ3D are wonderful tools for creating art. But these tools are not the only way the LGBT community expresses its creativity.

You have arrived at Achilles Canvas which replaces GPA. The idea for Achilles Canvas came about as a natural progression toward a more encompassing community arose.  Some within the GPA community had talents that extended beyond just 3D generated artwork.  Some are painters, some are writers and others who have talents that extend into other avenues of self expression. (Music, sculpture, photography, etc.)  This is what Achilles Canvas wishes to embrace.

This site will not be advertising anything and promotion will be as it was in the past for GPA, by word of mouth. Achilles Canvas will grow at its own pace and hopefully be a more encompassing spectrum of creativity within the LGBT artistic community. We hope that content contributors within the LGBT community will feel free to showcase their talents in the new format. It is also my hope that artists might contribute to their the work of storytellers by creating visualizations of any written contributions, something I myself will endeavor to do for any writer who decides to contribute.

Hopefully artists who use different or even more traditional media will also share their talents on Achilles Canvas. How this will work is a bit different from the methods used on Google Groups. Those artist and writers wishing to contribute and become a content creator for the new group, need only email me and I will add them to the sites content creators and once approved they will have full access to post and edit their own works. I can even instruct you on how to post your work in a manner that the site will archive your post together allowing members who join the site to merely type in your name in the search function to bring up your archive, or members to the site can just browse the sites content which will post each contributors content by date of post.

Once on the site you can join the group and become a member, but to contribute to the site you have to apply to be a content creator by emailing me at: ulfr57@gmail.com
