View Full Version : CGNetworks Websites Wins Awards!
Leonard 01-29-2003, 10:16 PM Dear friends,
GFXArtist (http://www.gfxartist.com) has published their 2002 Awards results and a very nice surprise!
http://www.gfxartist.com/features/articles/12087
Winning TWO Awards for:
The Best Community Site
Best 3D Site
CG Networks (3D Festival, CG Talk, CG Challenge): "The epitome of a well run network, CG Networks combined sites blow the competition out of the water with timely news, superb forums, frequent features, heftily sponsored and well run competitions, and a whole hearted commitment to the 3D Community. You'd be hard pressed to find a better site. Kudos to the CG Networks team."
Runners Up for Best Forums
CG Talk: "After a nasty split from CG Channel, CG Talk quickly regained it's feet and established itself as one of the, if not the biggest graphics forum on the net. While the forum can be a bit overwhelming because of it's size, the sharp moderating and helpful features such as the featured threads make it a good place to share your artwork and discuss the CG theme. "
Big kudos to GFXArtist for the Awards, Jimmy Hassel (3D Festival), Bella Center, the CGNetworks team (Tito "Lildragon" Belgrave and Ali "Sheep Factory" Tezel), the CGTalk mods and Advisory Committee, and to the community for helping us create a great online presence :thumbsup:
Now break out the champagne!

It’s good to see this forum get this recognition.
Best 3D Site of the Year
Winner:
CG Networks (3D Festival, CG Talk, CG Challenge): The epitome of a well run site…
Runners Up….
…CG Channel: The former king of 3D Sites is nominated more for what it once was than what is has degenerated into recently. The departure of several key members along with the CG Talk forums have had a noticeable effect on the site, and the news commentary and obnoxious advertising only add to it's woes.
People can talk all they want, but the proof in the pudding and actions speak louder than words.
Great work, we appreciate all of your hard work. :thumbsup:

Well deserved awards. Good to see that you're getting the recognition you deserve.
I especially like this part:
While the forum can be a bit overwhelming because of it's size, the sharp moderating and helpful features such as the featured threads make it a good place to share your artwork and discuss the CG theme
So keep it up you mods people you...

And so it comes to this. I was here on that day when CGTalk came into being. I was here during the dizzying highs and the crashing lows. I will still be here, years from now, when my children are all wrinklyed and gassy and I am adding my 40,000th post, and my billionth entry into cgBot.
And why? Because CGTalk is the community. Because CGTalk makes friends out of strangers and monkeys out of polygons. The guys that made these many kilobytes of server space (and many more servers besides) will have a legacy that will take them into the next generation. They will be made kings among the people. They will recieve many more awards in the years to come. They will reach heights they never dreamed possible.
In that time, CGTalk will have grown into a community of hundreds of thousands. Children will flock to it's doors. cgBot will be a sentient being of infinite wisdom (And ultimate zen). There shall be a place in the firmament for the stars that are born from the welling deeps of the WIP forum.
In short, CGTalk rocks the earth.
Have a cup of tea on me guys!:D
You deserve every damn pixel.
