Howdy! Thank you for the invite to the server. My name is Sean Galloway and I’m an illustrator, character designer a huge fan of the classics. To kick things off, here are several segments to a larger homage for my Childhood Cartoons montage I’m working on. At the moment it’ll be about 15 segments touching base on cartoons ranging from the 40s-80s.

@seangallowayart Hi Sean, and welcome!

Hashtags are important here for discoverability, and there are certain tags that will get you 'found' more easily:

And we place strong emphasis on accessibility here, so adding image descriptions (alt text) to media is very much encouraged and will actually get you more interactions because more people will be inclined to share your work:

Have fun, and yell if you need help!

General advice for people coming over from Twitter and Instagram regarding hashtags: Hashtags are a useful and important tool here. Clicking on a hashtag will show you results from across different servers, so they're important for federating content and finding people. There's no need to have loads of tags on your post like Insta to try to catch more engagement, but also you won't be punished for using tags like Twitter. (cont)
