Two new marvellous Atomic features! Photonic and Atomic Authors

We all like the crisp, body-quivering smell of newness. Especially Atomic newness.

We all like the crisp, body-quivering smell of newness.

Especially Atomic newness.

We imagine it as the smell of freshly cut grass; the pleasant, aromatic scent of nature that permeates one's thoughts, soul and self, in the same way a Tim Tam soaks up your tea in that lovely, Tim Tam-soaking-tea kind of way.

Aw yeah.

With that said, Atomic would like to unveil two new site features, features borne of community's needs and desires, and the people within that community's ability to harness, control and make use of their innate creativity.

First off the conveyer belt is the Atomic Authors section; a links archive containing the sum of the creative writing works present on the magically magical Atomic forums. Have your work easily available for the community to see and enjoy. If you think you have an awesome piece of writing you'd like linked, send an email to features@atomicmpc.com.au. The piece will need to have been posted on the forums.

Forum dude 1shot1kill will remain Keeper of the Writer's Vault.

The next item off the website feature production line is the Photonic Photoshop section, a section whose existence was spurred by forum user and all-round Atomican NihilisticAutomaton. While Photonic is a place where innocent images are altered from the fun of all, there's nothing to stop it from housing any sort Atomic art – Photoshopped or not. If you'd like to see your art in Photonic, drop us a line at features@atomicmpc.com.au. The image needs to be a part of an organised competition, or some other such event on the forums.

Have an arty event running rampant on the forums? Check out Photonic at the following URL: http://www.atomicmpc.com.au/atomicshop.asp.

Right now, you might be curious as to the reason for these new features? Well, let us put it this way:

Like a prodigious, revered hermit whose only possessions are a piece of charcoal and a few sheets of sturdy papyrus; like a Tibetan supermonk honoured for his limitless ingenuity and unrestricted mental adroitness, so to is the Atomic community a complex entity of artistic aptitude, the true beauty of which only a few can comprehend.

It's because of this dynamite potential for innovation and originality that these features have come about. It's because of you guys, the Atomic community, that we're able to delivery these galleries of your creativity.

In other words, these grand features are for you. You guys. Enjoy. If you want to check out these features, just check out the top navigation bar. You shouldn't have too much trouble finding it.
