I'm amazed by how many good looking covers this drive produced. I almost feel that my creation (for Augmented Fourth) isn't worthy to be in such company, but it was happily accepted by the author and I'm happy to have contributed in a small way.
Now that the drive is over, that doesn't have to mean that covers will no more be produced. New games will be written. If anyone else liked the cover I made and feel that something in that style would fit their game, feel free to ask me if I'd like to draw something for you. You know where to find my e-mail address.

Definitely not.
A number of people have now asked me whether the art drive could be an on-going or recurring project. Personally I think that having a set period for contributions actually meant that we got more than we would with a permanent installation: a time-frame gives people some impetus to act *now*, instead of in the indefinite future.
I'm not sure I'm likely to run such a thing again myself -- I'm not absolutely opposed, but I am perennially overcommitted, so I don't want to promise to do this again. But someone else could! I'll probably post in a few days about lessons learned from running the drive, so that if anyone wants to do it again in the future, they have the benefit (such as it is) of my experience this time.

I just want to say a big thanks here to everybody who contributed to this drive. As an author, it's a real thrill to have somebody create something based on your own work. For my own part, sincere thanks go to Josh Lawrence, Admiral Jota, Benjamin Brandt, Alex Rohr, J. Robinson Wheeler, and Eric Newsom. Each image made me happy.
