..It's what we do..
Q: What is MoRBiD?
A: MoRBiD is an ansi art group. Ansi art groups are groups of people
that create ansis for local BBSes. They do this by releasing packs of
their work, and if the BBSes like the work, they ask the group to do
some for them.
MoRBiD is based in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, and currently has
members only from this area, but are looking to expand outside of
Kingston.
Q: Why was MoRBiD created?
A: With the recent loss of Deviation Arts, Kingston was without an ansi
art group. Asmodeus took it upon himself to create MoRBiD (previously
New Group) to fill that void, and also to give local artists something
to do.
Q: Will MoRBiD deal exclusively in ansi?
A: MoRBiD currently has artist in the ansi, ascii,VGA, coding, and
literature departments. We may in the future expand to include
compositions.
Q: What is each department responsible for?
A: The ascii department is responsible for ascii art. The literature
department handles poems, short stories, songs, etc.
The ansi department is responsible for ansi pics and menus. The
VGA art department deals with hi-res images, and the coding dept.
makes demo programs, loaders, and other useful (or useless) things.
Q: How do I get MoRBiD to do a piece of art for me?
A: To get MoRBiD to do ansi for you, you should probably leave a message
to Asmodeus on Mundane Dreams at (613) 387-1161, or leave a message
to Dragonbaiter on Concordant Crossroads at (613) 634-0768. You can
also leave me a message on many of the echo mail networks, or contact
Asmodeus at morbid@x249_117.gryn.org In the message you should tell
us who you are, what the ansi is for, and anything else you want us
to know.
Q: Do you charge for pics?
A: This is left up to the individual member.
Q: How do I join MoRBiD?
A: MoRBiD is eager to accept new members. Our expectations aren't super
high, so if you can do ANY ansi, ascii, lit, VGA, coding, or can
compose music (MOD,S3M,etc), send it in. The application should be
available widely, as we are trying to post it on a regular basis on
many networks, and it should be available for DL. You can also find
an application form in any of our releases. If not, simply leave me a
message stating you wish to join, with your name, alias, e-mail
address, which department you want to join, and arrange to send me
some of your work.
Q: How many submissions must I make to stay active?
A: There is no defined quota. This shall be dealt with on an individual
basis. Generally you are active when you submit at least one piece
of work per pack (which is a 30 day period.)
Q: How do I become an HQ or member board?
A: Contact Asmodeus on a local net or at dragonbaiter@x249_117.gryn.org
and he will sort this out. It is preferred that you are a 24 hour
board and that you have a mailer set up, but this is not required. If
you are a member of MoRBiD and you run a board, the board will
automatically become a member board if you so desire. We are looking
for area HQ's outside of 613, as well as distro sites.
