Awesome comic-con shot:

From left to right: (Thanks to $Heidi for the image)

`Artgerm - Awesome artist!! I just love the way he draws and how he uses color. He has his own studio (IFS), and he'd some work recently for DC Comics and for the Street Fighter 3 re-release.

`alohalilo - The guy behind the artistic style of Lilo and Stitch!

*Zubby - From Udon (#UdonCrew)! Super nice guy IRL and he's doing some cool independent stuff with Skullkickers!

`diablo2003 - A super long-time dA artist. I really like his Ultimate Marvel comic art.

+spyed - Our awesome deviantART CEO!

=DeevElliott - Previously from Radical Comics, he's doing some neat independent stuff (I heard he's been working with ~Jo-Chen!)

I wish I was there!

Stanley Sy

Canada

Hi, I'm Stanley Sy. I'm a graduate of the Art and Art History joint program at University of Toronto and Sheridan College. I work behind-the-scenes designing "stuff" for deviantART.

Most of it involves hand-coding XHTML & CSS for various layouts (such as new events, news or journal entries) around the site. I really enjoy solving usability issues and organizing information for clarity, so it's been a fun, on-going challenge.

I get to work with some pretty talented people such as $pachunka (who does most of the cool front-end stuff you see here), ~levinet (who helps me out a lot), `OliverJanoschek (who does all those funky Fella images) and many more.

Previously, I designed deviantART's Minimal skin. I also like to dabble in pixel art. You'll find a few of my little toolbar icons across deviantART.

Current Residence: Mississauga, Canada, Favourite genre of music: Alternative, CCM, J/K-Pop, Dance, Pop, Favourite style of art: Minimalistic, Clean, Operating System: Windows XP SP2, MP3 player of choice: iTunes + iPod Shuffle, Wallpaper of choice: Clouds from everydayicons.jp, Skin of choice: Luna Blue (!?), Favourite cartoon character: Sailor Jupiter

Deviousness Award

There's a reason `starvingartist is a senior member here at deviantART, and it's not just his length of stay. Stanley has continually given to this community rather than take from it, and as such has proven his resourcefulness in this world of art. We see his contributions in not only his comments and submissions, but every day in the form of both his Minimal skin and the many small icons throughout the site. For these reasons, we at deviantART are proud to award `starvingartist with the Deviousness Award for September 2003.

-awarded September 2003

Bolt Award

As a card carrying member of both the devious Technology and Creative teams, Stanley has designed and touched the very soul of deviantART. In an industry where many allow their ego to grow beyond their skillset, Stanley is a shining example of someone who brings his intuitive talent to the table with no agenda other than one to get things done to the highest standard.It's with great honor that we award the Bolt Award to $starvingartist!
-awarded August 2009
