Other fun art/doodle sites?

So I've been wondering about any other forums/games/communities online that have some fun drawing-related activities, be it contests, challenges, or just-for-kicks doodling. Preferably some that are different from the "drawing telephone" game we've got going on here and in a couple of other sites? http://conceptart.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=69 ConceptArt, for example, has challenges going on periodically, but they're kind of way too high on the effort scale for my humble doodles. Anybody got some links to share?

After looking at screenshots of Doodle or Die, I considered making an account. However, I'd feel like I was cheating on Drawception. xD

iSketch is an oldie but a goodie. I spent many an hour there, pwning annoying pre-teens. Though after only one day of Drawception I don't think I could ever go back to the boring prompts!

There's a reddit link right in the bottom of Doodle or Die. To a subreddit nonetheless.

I'll be staying le away le from le memes. There's le enough le memes le right here le in Leception.

The fact that it has its own subreddit does not mean it's full of memes. Memes are everywhere. I've honestly seen more memes here than Doodle or Die (but I haven't actually played it yet).

I used to play Inklink, haha.

O.O I'm glad someone else played that, too!

Draw My Thing was the closest thing I played to that.

I'm playing Doodle or Die right now and I must say it is quite disappointing in every possible way. I kinda like the lack of a timer... but not really. I absolutely LOATHE the color selection. I do like the extra brush sizes and how smoothly the app runs. However, they're just very un-creative here. Either that or just terribly disgusting.

doodle and die so far is annoying compared to this site. Only 3 skips and too many porn/disgusting pictures or descriptions

Just tried doodle or die... Drawception is sooo much better!

I just tried Doodle or Die as well. I'm not really liking it so far. I put effort into a drawing, spending 10 minutes or so on it. Only for the next drawn panel to be squiggly lines. I like the unrestricted time somewhat, but I don't see the point of having it there as people don't even attempt to draw what they're meant to be drawing.

I never claimed to like it, lol. I think it sucks too. But TC wanted a site :D

I gave up after a while (and having only three skips a day is a terrible idea). Sure it gets games done, but they look bloody terrible. I put my profile on Ghost Mode (so no one can associate me with that.. drivel) and am now completely pretending that Doodle or Die does not exist.

There is an infinite time limit and yet NO ONE bothers to research what they're drawing. :/

Sketchfu is pretty good, and deviantArt has an interesting program that I haven't really touched much.

Sketchfu looks pretty dang amazing, but I'm pretty self-conscious about my art now for some reason. I haven't even played a game in the last couple of days. :/

Aww, it's still great! There'll be days where for whatever reason, you just hate what you produce. I definitely go through that. Only way to get out of it is to power through it or completely stop for months on end. :/

I mean, I came across some pretty awesome prompts today and I'm like "I could totally do a pretty awesome job at this" but then something evil just says to me "you suck."

I was doodling around in Sketchbook trying to make something cool, but bleh... I'm just totally creatively bummed out. :(

Sounds like you may want to just give yourself a break for a bit, maybe a week tops. Get out and experience life! Creating relies on drawing from experience, so you need to make sure you're getting something to create with.

What, seriously? D: I've had an account since 2007 so I wouldn't have known that. Why on earth would they do that? :/
