[b][u][i]THE IP INCUBATOR CLUB.[/i][/u][/b]
[b]in·cu·bate[/b]
/ˈɪnkyəˌbeɪt, ˈɪŋ-/ Show Spelled [in-kyuh-beyt, ing-] Show IPA verb, in·cu·bat·ed, in·cu·bat·ing.verb (used with object)
1. to sit upon (eggs) for the purpose of hatching.
2. to hatch (eggs), as by sitting upon them or by artificial heat.
3. to maintain at a favorable temperature and in other conditions promoting development, as cultures of bacteria or prematurely born infants.
[b]4. to develop or produce as if by hatching;[/b] give form to: His brain was incubating schemes for raising money.
[b]Welcome to the IP Incubator Club[/b]
The idea behind this Club is simple
[b]POST MONTHLY UPDATES of Original IP that you are developing. Hopefully IP that can eventually help the creator generate some income. [/b]
[b]Also you should provide CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK to the work posted by other posters of the club.[/b]
The idea of this "Incubator Club" is to get away from the gloom and doom and provide a lifeline of support for our fellow artists.
The artists will have at their discretion how much they wish to share on the projects they are working on, what program they will be using and the medium . [b]But the IP HAS BE AN ORIGINAL CREATION.[/b]
[b][u]DEVELOPER CO-SPONSORS[/u][/b]
[size=2][size=2]The idea is to match developers with individual sponsors. People whose responsibility is to monitor the progress of a specific project. The sponsors would be fellow developers. It would be their responsibility to provide support and provide guidance to the developer from an outsider's point of view. I'm not advocating "mentor ship" where there usually is an imbalance of expertise/knowledge between two parties. Rather, I envision sponsorship to be a vehicle for peer support, for consultation between and among artists who each have valuable tools, experience, and knowledge to share. Sponsorship is method for both parties to learn and grow professionally and perhaps personally as well.[/size]

[b]The Concept[/b][/font][b]___________________________[/b]
Ok so lets recap:
[color=white]The idea behind this IP incubator club is to provide a cool hangout place for IP creators. [/color]recap....
Weekly threads will be posted, to provide encouragement for developer to keep working on their idea.
On way to see this is to think of us as a spotter on your local gym.
You use your WIP thread to post your regular updates, But ONCE A WEEK you post on the IP INC thread a summary, based on the forsmat posted blow.
