I'm going to butt my head in here because I'm getting a little teed off.

Does great art equal a great character? No I agree with that. Does it help? Yeah it does.

That being said I only included art in my character's profile because I wanted to commission a talented artist to bring my OC to life since I myself am incapable of doing so. That isn't a requirement for everyone. I condone greatly the individuals who do their own character art. Dare I say I envy them. I myself can't draw, via why I pay others to do it for me.

That being said I did put a lot of effort into my character's profile. Just because someone doesn't draw their own character's art doesn't mean they put minimal effort into writing up a bio. Artwork shouldn't be the only thing people pay attention to but it's similar to how people look at books. The cover art can help draw the attention in so people can get into what the actual story is written about.

Just my two cents. I personally care deeply about the character I created but I can't draw worth scraps. My field is in creating the soul of a character, not the body.

....and I personally nominate Nicole Knightly because she is adorable and I didn't mean to spam this thread with my pissy rant.
