A Field is a specific type of art that dB is looking for. There are many more Fields here that are not listed, and as dB grows more may be added in the future. Applying to a certain field means that you enjoy producing that type of art and will produce art in that field for dB. However, it does not mean that you are bolted down to just that Field; rather, it's like choosing your major. The longer you're in a Field, and the more you excel at it, the more benefits you will gain, IE having an entire gallery room commissioned for just your show.

* Building
* Structure: conventional building in Blockland. Structure builders are pivotal in the creation and maintainment of the Gallery as well as creating the build around it. Structure builders are expected to be able to build at a high-level.
* Sculpture: using bricks, and their many abilities, to create interesting builds that aren't just houses or cities. Sculptors are people who can create interesting installation or works on a larger or smaller scale for the Gallery.

* Photography: taking photographs inside Blockland, that can be displayed as prints. A skilled photographer is expected to use all visual aspects of blockland to create interesting photographs

* Modeling: using 3d modeling to create interesting models in Blockland. Modelers are able to create models that aren't just practical but more abstract.

* Digital Art: using the computer to create art. Digital artists are important to dotBlock for creating art for the server and other productions

Applying to dotBlock is simple, though each field has a different procedure

For Structure, some pictures of your application and a save are expected. A in-server interview along with your build will then commence, in which a contributor will judge your build.

For Sculpture, a portfolio is required, which in this case is a collection of 4-8 sculptures that show your aptitude for the medium. A in-server interview along with all of your sculptures will then commence, in which a contributor judges all of your sculptures. If you choose to do one larger installation, such as something along the lines of VerticalHorizon's Festung de Schwarzung, this is also acceptable

For Modeling, a number of selected works is required(either pictures or 3D visualizations). A contributor will then judge said works

For Photography, a portfolio of 5-10 high-quality pictures is required. A contributor will then judge the images based on their quality and how they use in-game visual effects, rather than post-production.

For Digital Art, a portfolio similar to the photography portfolio [5-10 digital art pictures] is required, however your aptitude can be judges in other ways- for instance, a website layout you created, or a banner. A contributor will judge your selected works.

The Gallery is one of dotBlock's main projects. It is to be a massive art gallery/studio space that will be home to all of the clan's creations, as well as other people's work. Hopefully, in the future, the gallery will be located on a dedicated server running 24/7 so anyone may come and look at the pieces people have created.

There is still plenty to do, so stay tuned for more progress

UPDATE: [8-5-14]

"Hello world! So i finally got around to making a clan, something i've wanted to do for years. This is just gonna be a little bulletin board with notices and such. I know things may be a little messy right now, and maybe a bit confusing, but i'm still ironing out some of the problems in the OP. Please stick around, because i hope to get a team and accomplish some real cool things with dB"
