I've created a new theme for the site. Leave a comment here and let me know what you think of it. If you prefer the old one, just sign up for an account and switch it back in your user profile. :)

A big thank you goes out to:

* James W. Morris, creator of the puzzle game XorGramana, for uploading a massive archive of excellent puzzle tiles.

* Joakim Persson, for uploading some excellent fantasy icons and backgrounds, and

* Matthew Newman, for contributing a set of sweet tribal drums and vocals. Check out Children of the Monkey Machine here!

By request, I've created a link button image that you can use to link back to this site. No need to ask permission -- feel free to link to us as much as you please. Just right-click on the image in the upper right of this post and select "Save As", and you're good to go.

If you'd like OpenGameArt to link back to you, use the Contact form, or just leave a comment in reply to this message. We'll happily link to any site that's about art, music, game development, free/open source software, or any combination thereof.

OpenGameArt.org is proud to announce that we are now accepting audio submissions, including both music and sound effects. If you have some audio to submit, click here. You can also browse audio that has already been submitted. I'll be adding these options to the main menu as soon as I can alter the theme to accommodate pull-down menus. Please let me know if you have any difficulties uploading or browsing audio.

There was an issue that was preventing tar.gz and tar.bz2 archives from being uploaded. This has been fixed.

If you have a large number of files (images, audio, 3d models, etc) that you don't want to submit individually, you can now submit them as an archive. Archives can be submitted anonymously, but in that case I can't use them unless you provide attribution information.

Over the last couple of days, I've been working on getting some of the kinks out of the site, and I think it's coming along fairly well. My next project is going to be expanding into audio, both sound effects and music. The audio section should debut with an original set of sound effects, so keep checking back over the next few days.

Hey folks!

I've just spent the better part of a day getting everything set up and uploading some initial content, generously donated by my talented friend Mandi Paugh. There's not a whole lot here just yet, but I'm hoping I'll be able to drum up enough interest that I can expand the gallery pretty quickly. Failing that, I'll slowly dig up and/or commission artwork until there is enough to generate interest.
