tSR is an... aging community. Perhaps "mature" is a better word. Most of us are in high school and/or college now and have jobs and simply don't have time to sprite anymore.
Aside from being terrible at it in general, that's the biggest reason that I don't enter the compos or do much else art-wise around here.
...but I really want to. I just don't have the time.

I'd definitely like to see more C+C on submissions to help people improve.

I think difficulty tiers might be a good idea so that everyone can have something on their level.

I also really like the idea of focusing on special techniques and tutorials. Actually teaching people spriting skills and how to put them into practice instead of "this needs AA" or "this is banded" or "check the spriting dictionary" is a lot more helpful.
EDITS REALLY HELP A LOT TO SHOW PEOPLE HOW TO FIX THINGS.

Perhaps monthly objectives would be better than weekly ones.
