The Contest: The New Millennium is an event I kept an eye on ever since ErikShoemaker (https://www.deviantart.com/erikshoemaker) launched it. He is about to announce the winners, so keep an eye on his news feed.^^ Until then, let us have a look at this inspirational collection of ideas and artworks, which all show different facets of what might be in the future... As probably some of you also thought about this theme, I actually recognize here some of the thoughts I also fancied...
Thank you everyone for participating :clap:
And the winners are...

He's a list of free art programs for you to use! None of them have viruses; I've used them all at one point of my life or another.
Note: To open some of these, you'll need WinRAR. It's free, and even after the 'trial' expires, you can still use it to open RAR, ZIP, and many other files.

When it comes to art quality and style, a lot of older artists say "It's the artist, not the program.". On the contrary to what they say, the program DOES play a LARGE part in what your art looks like.
