  • GFXartist is an online artistic community where digital artists can profile themselves and get in touch with peers and enthusiasts through their work. It was first launched in January, 2000 and revised at several occasions. The last revision took place in early 2002 and resulted in the relaunch of GFXartist in the shape is it in today on March 3, 2002. GFXartist is the creation of Arno Drost, Martin Kool and Martijn van Zal. Joined in 2003 by Marvin Ronk, all four are also partners in the new media firm Brothers in art. GFXartist houses a large, but intimate community comprised mostly of artists practicing (digital) painting, illustration, photography and photo manipulation. As of June 2006, GFXartist has about 44,000 registered accounts and 41,000 gallery entries. About 1/4 of the members are female, 3/4 are male. The average age of members is 25 years. GFXartist has submission guidelines, rejecting certain types of work. In the past work was sporadically screened after submitting. Since November 2005, Community moderators have been appointed. These moderators are regular, core members willing to enforce the submission guidelines and in general keep the peace using their extended privileges. To protect young viewers from explicit material GFXartist has an explicit content filter. By default, it displays a message to people who want to view the work. Registered members can later change their personal settings to always bypass the warning or to never show explicit work.
