We are jumping up and down excited to introduce The Leaky Fan Art Galleries

This project has been months and months in the making and you can find the news post by Melissa here.

This is a really exciting project bringing together our brilliant tekkies, our Gallery Girls and your favourite fan artists!

Just a run down for you as to how it works biggrin.gif :-

* You can browse by either "Artist", "Tags" "Top Rated" or "Type".

* There is also a search bar, so if you type, for example, Snape, you will get a huge selection of images that feature our favourite potions master.

* You can leave a comment and rating for each image by signing in with your Leaky Lounge username and password thumbup.gif !

* We currently have works from some of your favourite Leaky artists such as Marta, Makani and Anguinea for you to view and many more to come.

* If you look closely on your favorite artist's profile pages (view Frak's, one of my personal favorites) you will notice a small orange button next to the artist's name. If you click it you will see an RSS feed of the artist's latest pictures that you can add to your favorite RSS reader.

* Other features for artists include the ability to post announcements, manage your own albums and comments, share your pictures via Flash badges and more.

There really has never been an easier way to share and view Harry Potter Fanart than this Gallery.

I would just like to give a special mention to tekkie and Gallery God Alex who as always amazes us with his unbelievable work.

Enjoy!


Erin Dolmage - Fan Art Gallery Manager

Hey Icontest fans! Due to so many fans being preoccupied with Terminus, the FanArt icon contest is being bumped back a week. smile.gif

FanArt Gallery and Forum Updates! woohoo.gif

With the release of The Tales of Beedle the Bard we have been most anxious to see those stories drawn by our amazing fanartists. Be sure to check out the thread and poll here in the forum to discuss Beedle fan art.



Our Featured FanArtist for February is the incredibly prolific Thanfiction --


Check out his awesome gallery (and his HP fan fiction is amazing too!)

We are aware that there are still some problems with LeakyLogin that is preventing many members from being able to comment in the FanArt Gallery or for artists to upload new art. Please be patient, and be assured we will shout it from the rooftops when this technical glitch is solved. Thanks so much to everyone for their patience! flowers.gif
