For those of you that incorporate public domain art into your TTRPGs, how do you keep track of everything? I've been using Zotero, but I'm open to suggestions!

Screenshot of my Zotero library listing public domain artwork. A table lists titles, citation keys, creators, item types, and years, such as "Apple Blossoms" by Daubigny (1873), "Deck of 52 Playing Cards" (1800), and "Wheelwright" by Whistler (1879). One entry, "Hôtel de Ville, St. Omer, France" by Boys, is expanded to show its attached image file, previewed in a sidebar on the right. It's a warm watercolor painting of an ornate building with a crowd and a dog in the street below.

Thanks everyone who has been making my notifications blow up with wonderful games, past, present, and future. There are lots of other axes of representation, but dispelling the tired idea of roleplaying as EVER being exclusively the domain of one POV takes all of us. Many hands make better work.

I want to become an artist on VGen so I can start taking more commissions. Here are a few of my pieces, and my portfolio is bekandrew.artstation.com VGen account: vgen.co/bekandrew/ #VGenCode

Digital painting in a painterly style of a pale, red-haired woman floating underwater in a flowing dress and deep red shawl, reaching one hand outward as her hair billows around her. She is styled like a Greek/Roman statue. Large dark tentacles curl through the purple-blue water around her, their pale suction cups visible, while small blue bubbles and scattered pomegranate seeds drift across the scene.

digital painting in painterly style of a young androgynous person from a futuristic apocalypse setting. She's jumping/falling and slightly crouhed. She's wearing a heavy military-style jacket, cargo pants, and boots along with a tank top, tattered blue scarf, and fingerless gloves. Her ashy blonde hair is in an undercut. She has a futuristic gun in one hand.

Stylized digital portrait of an androgynous young person facing forward, shown from the chest up against a dark purple background. They have an undercut with voluminous white hair swept to one side, pale blue eyesmade of an electronic cable, heavy eye bags, and multiple facial and ear piercings, including a micro SD charm on an earing. Cool cyan, lavender, and pink highlights give their skin an iridescent appearance. They wear a light hoodie and choker and appear to be sitting behind a laptop covered with stickers, including one reading “Bong Hits 4 Jesus” with a cannabis leaf, a pink brain, and a blue star.

Tapling: Queer Zines 🏳️‍🌈 @taplingzines.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Since today is an International Day Against Trafficking, we wanted to talk about ethical production of art & merch. All our projects are co-led by a trafficking survivor, so this is really important to us! We also hope this inspires you to follow these guidelines in your own art too. 🧵

A graphic showing digital mockups of the merch from the Moments of Euphoria project. Text reads, "Ethical merch production: tips for creating merch without forced labor and negative environmental impact. Tip 1: Search printing companies for 'forced labor' and 'modern slavery' policies. Tip 2: Ask companies directly if they avoid forced labor. Tip 3: Consider environment-friendly alternatives (paper merch, paper sleeves, wooden pins). Tip 4: Buy local whenever possible! Share to help other artists create more ethical merch!"
