This brings back memories. I was never an artist myself but I used some of the scene art for my BBS in the mid to late 90's. I wish there was a way to search based on keywords.
Even the tech is interesting. It uses a JSON API at api.artpacks.org to get the data and renders the art into <canvas> elements.
Thanks for noticing the tech. Its held up under the load pretty well considering that the files are all only stored in their original .zip format (rather than unzipped and stored staticly). That, and its hosted on a $5/month DigitalOcean instance. :-)
If anyone wants to build anything on the API, please let me know (email in profile), and I'll try harder to keep it stable. :-)
Search is coming soon.
If anyone wants to help, the most needed item is RIPscrip rendering. We use ripscrip.js (https://github.com/andyherbert/ripscript.js) at the moment, but the rendering is broken on a lot of files.
