We need to make Bforartists a bit better known. So we spread the news at various boards and pages. It's also time to write a Wikipedia article. This task here is about all this promotional work.
So far ...

Good job!
Good catch with the graphics. I will have a look to update the graphics at alternativeto tomorrow.
Images at aternative.to updated. They are currently pending ...
We made it onto the Make: blog.

Yay o/
We have a news at CG Channel and CG Press.

80.lvl also mentioned BFA. I'll have to find the link, it's on the facebook page.
I've mentioned it in my Game Making Tools Wiki ;3
This is great. Many thanks :)
Resurrecting this thread. It's time to spread the word again, now that we have a stable version of Bforartists 2
Announced Bforartists at the usual places. See first posting.
Plus
https://www.psd-tutorials.de/forum/threads/bforartists-2-erschienen.182158/#post-2724522
And
https://cgpress.org/archives/bforartists-2-released.html
Not my favourite job. But we have a few more announcements now. The good thing is, the fork is known enough that it spreads by itself now. It was not necessary to post it at gamedev.net again for example. And also other pages have picked up the release.
Still waiting if the german magazine digitalproduktion will write an article about Bforartists 2 again. I was in contact with them. But i guess this time it will be much shorter, if even.
That should be enough for now. Unassigning. On with other things.
Ah and when somebody finds the time to write a wikipedia article ... XD
