Scam accounts?
By J B
I was just recently followed by an obvious scam account (CashApp, Crypto, the usual stuff). However, there doesn't seem to be any functionality for reporting these or blocking them? Any suggestions?
The account in question is: https://www.proko.com/@usasmmhivej/activity
Thanks!

Skelly App on Google Play Games
By Jonatan
Very recently google launched Google Play Games beta which lets you run games and apps from google play on your pc, currently Skelly is not compatible but could it be possible for it to be updated to be compatible with Google Play Games to be able to use it on pc? I think the app would be extremely much more useful if I was able to take screenshots of the Skelly posed to draw over them in a Drawing Program, rather than taking screenshots from my phone and going through the hurdle of sending the images to my computer.

Timer Tool - beyond gesture?
By zan
Going through Stan's awesome beginner course at the moment, thought of this idea, figured I should throw it out there - it'd be really cool to have a place on the site to have a library of exercises and warmups. I'm imagining something you pull up when you first start out for the day, and it'd randomize an exercise for you. Today you're working on value. Next time, it gives you perspective exercises. etc. These could be basic ones that everyone knows that are just in the tool always, and/or miniature versions of the lessons from the paid material - just all collected in one spot and easy to peruse.
You could then get really fancy tracking consistency and suggestions for these various skills, but that may be further down the line.
I can go in more detail if that doesn't make sense, but it's fairly simple. Thanks for everything you all do!

Skelly app
Hello Proko team.
If a suggestion I may add you can implement into a future update to the Skelly app. Can you add a hinge to the jaw so it can open and close? What about an update to the fingers/thumb so they can individually move for study when posing.
also can there be an additional skeleton for the female?
thank you.

Less Adobe Software? Why must Proko be so Adobe centric?
I was just watching Color Mixing with Marco Bucci on Youtube. Great video, bought his book and colour mixing class on the strength of it. However, at one point he attempts to explain the differences in colour mixing in real life with actual paint vs. the same thing digitally. He explains that Adobe's Photoshop (which he and most professionals use and can afford) can't simulate real paint mixing whereas others (he gave Rebelle as an example, but I know Corel Painter can as well) could.
I can't afford the familiarity with Adobe products that the professionals can and prefer to use Rebelle and Corel Painter. As Marco said: they are different. They are cheaper, they do watercolor and they are not owned by an (allegedly) evil empire wanting to steal images to train the AI that seeks to replace artists.
How about a few less Adobe centric courses?

Conté 1710 B Pencil
Hi guys,
I have this little issues with my pencils.
after I sharpened them and try to shade with them and even on the point sometimes , it feels like there are those tiny hard pieces in the lead and it messes the shading process and give this scratchy feeling on the paper. Any suggestion ? Do I do something wrong ?
Thanks in advance guys.

Timer Tool improvements
By Jonatan
Hello, just got the image packs for gesture drawing references, and since I'm on a tablet when I work on my traditional drawing desk I thought the Proko Timer tool would be good for practice, I think the tool works fine but there is a few things I'd like to see improve.
1. Being able to select a "Class Mode" with the timer increasing after a few images, like in Quickposes.com, or other gesture drawing apps.
2. Selecting more than 25 images.
3. Being able to see the total session's lenght after selecting the image and timer parameters ex. "30s images, 40 images total = 20 mins session"
4. Show images in grayscale and upside down.
I think that's about it, I think it'd be really useful since I think the other gesture drawing websites's image pools are very limited and I would like to use the packs I bought from proko at it's fullest when I only got my phone or tablet to practice from. On my pc I have the Quickposes app which comes with all these options so when I get to my pc I use that since it lets me sample images saved in my pc (including the proko ones I bought), but on tablets and phones there isn't really something like this as far as I know.

Timer Tool Suggestion - Review Images from Session
Hey Proko Team,
I'm really enjoying the updates to the Timer tool with being able to download images and get information about the images. However, when I'm in the middle of going through a session, typically, the last thing I'm thinking about is pausing the timer and downloading the image or saving the pack it came from. Right now, it goes to the "Well Done" screen when finished but doesn't provide an option to look through the session images again. So, I would love to see a feature in the future to be able to go back through the images after you complete a session to review and perhaps download ones that I might want to take further than a gesture drawing.

Class suggestion - Advanced Portrait: Age progression
By Bob Davis
A course about how the face changes as a person gets older. If you are creating a character concept, how to show them at all different ages. What do they look like at 5, 11, 15, 18 25, 35, etc......
Or you could just add the content for Premium subscribers to the Portrait class :-)

Any future plans to include topics using AI for art?
By A J
I believe this decade 2020s will mark a milestone in art, including AI for art seems like a big deal where with simple words/sentences AI will be able to generate a piece of media. I have given it a try and the results looks great but at the same time I feel like I'm using someone's else style and I don't have much freedom unless I refined my words. I'm just someone who is learning and improving my draftsmanship by hand using traditional media. Although, I feel tempted on using AI to get ideas on designing something new out of imagination in future. By the way, the below image was generated with AI and I just randomly type the words girl eating a cookie and the results look neat but you may find some errors like her hand is awkward but the picture is good nonetheless.

Mentorship and Other Features
By @quitpayload
I just read a roadmap for what they plan to do with the Proko website and one of the things they mentioned among other things was allowing one on one meetings between an instructor and a student.
This roadmap was several years old and included a bunch of goals that as far as I know still haven't been reached. Such as a mobile app. Does anybody know if they're still planning to add these features?

App to be able to stream videos from phone to TV
By Charlene
Personally, to watch video content I prefer to stream it from my phone to my TV whilst I'm eating meals as I'm sort of multi-tasking and it keeps my attention span up. I generally watch the videos on Youtube because you can stream videos using the shared wifi that way. This is a long shot, but would the Proko team consider creating an app to be able to do that? If not, no worries and thanks for all the great work you do.

Unable to move picture on timer feature while on fill
By @aeyt
Currently, at least on firefox you're unable to move the picture while filled/zoomed in. This would be a nice feature to add since currently just zooms to the top part of the image.

Issue with Logging In With Old Account "Invalid email or password"
I tried logging in with my old account that I purchased the Torso section of the 'Anatomy of the Human Body' with, but I was unable to do so after the site update. Is anyone else experiencing this issue, and if so, what can I do to fix it?
I like the update, but I would like to access my course.
PS: I blurred out my old email for privacy. If any admin can help with this, I will gladly share it!
Thanks
