Lack of feedback
Hi! I’ve bought some courses (mainly Dale Coleman and Scott Flanders classes) and I don’t mean to ditch on them they’re content is definitely S tier quality but in the end the most valuable thing in any learning is the feedback of the teachers and as I was browsing the other courses I saw a recurring problem: there’s vary little feedback from the teachers. I don’t feel totally disappointed like I said the lessons are very good but I do feel that the product Proko is offering is of lesser quality for price than for exemple NMA or Drawabox. Anybody else has similar opinion? Different one? Or better way to actually mitigate this?

Discord Server?
He y’all! It’s been a couple of years since the last topic on this in the boards, but I was wondering if there happens to be a Proko discord server? I’d LOVE to see one for really quick feedback or general discussions, really just the community aspect as a whole. I think the Proko site is great and would prefer to keep using this for the lessons, projects, and teacher interaction etc. but I would be even more motivated to practice on a daily basis if there was a more easily accessible community aspect! If there isn’t, I’m also open to any other art-learning-centric Discord servers that anyone has joined! Thanks for the time :)

Adding a perspective category
i noticed that there is no perspective category and i think that one should be added. Now that the basics course starts with it's perspective section it would be the perfect moment to add it.

Can the premium videos be cast to a TV
Hi, I'm able to cast the Youtube based videos to a TV. Can I do the same with the premium videos? Are they also staged on YouTube? Thanks.

Mentorship section
If I am not mistaken, I remember that mentorship should be a big news about Proko 2.0. Is it already available and I am not seeing it? Is it this forum? Thank you!

Manga-oriented course
It would be really interesting to get someone to do a full Manga-oriented course for the site. Someone traditionally famous like Naoki Urasawa (author of Monster and other popular manga series) or maybe a YouTube celebrity like DrawLikeASir. There's a lot of manga-specific subtleties that would be useful to learn in a specialized course and would create a nice parallel with the western-themed Marvel course that's being released.

Proko App Maybe
It'd be cool if the Proko team one day created an app to look at critique and check out our videos in an app, like youtube, if possible. Idk the sheer amount of effort involved lol, but it'd be cool to have that

Community engagement
I love Proko's courses, so this isn't a criticism, but just a suggestion to help improve the site: I think the whole Proko experience would be improved if there was more community interaction by the Proko team. The reason I say this, is because I routinely check the community pages for Drawing Basics and for the Site Suggestions, etc and there's rarely any responses from Proko team members. Lots of questions asked but only occasional answers or responses. It feels sort of abandoned in a way. I feel like if there was more interaction/feedback from the Proko team to community questions, etc it would go a long way to improve the site and the community around it. There's a lot of feedback on social media from the Proko team, so I know they can do it, it just doesn't seem to extend as much to the native Proko site.

"Added a new topic"... can't comment
This is partly a test. I'm adding a new topic about... adding a new topic! I notice quite a few people asking for help/ critiques and there is no option to comment on their post. All these posts have something in common: directly below the user's name it says "added a new topic" rather than the name of a specific discussion forum. So I'm both pointing this out and testing to see if the same thing happens on my post, which is after all a new topic.

Digital Illustration by Jon Neimeister?
I've had my eye on the digital painting course by Jon Neimester and I was just looking at it and saw it offered a bundle, but the second part says "Digital Illustration" and is showing "0 lessons". I'm assuming it's forthcoming... does anyone know about the timeframe for that? I haven't been able to find anything. (This also isn't really a "bug" but i wasn't sure where else to ask this.)

Question about if presale and the summer discount code are supposed to work together.
Is the summer sale discount supposed to work with "Marvel's The Art of Storytelling" presale? Or can you not use both sales on the same product? I'm not sure if it is just not working, or if it isn't meant to work.

Video not showing up at all
Hiya - I just bought Figure Drawing Fundamentals. Before I bought it, I was able to see the free lesson video thumbnails and click through onto YouTube. However, since I bought the premium course, the thumbnail area is blank with no way to see the videos. I've tried re-logging in, restarting my computer, disabling my adblock, and updating my web browser. Nothing has worked so far. Whether I click onto the lessons from "My Classroom" or from the "Browse Courses" page, I can't access the videos. Attached is a screenshot. Any ideas?

Please more of gesture stuff like CSI method
Hi @Proko Thanks for the drawing basic course. Also I am drawing some years it is good to go back to basic. I took the course ALSO for the CSI method. I like it :-) https://www.proko.com/course-lesson/project-simplify-to-csi/assignments Because I like gesture drawing like glenn keane or loish does I hope some gesture drawing course come out (I have the figured drawing course where this chapter is included, but not for the purpose of only gesture figure drawing) Thanks for your courses.

Suggestion: Invite a mental health expert for an episode
As you know and have covered before, mental health is quite fundamental for artists. I think it would be of great value to invite an actual expert on the field to dispel ingrained misconceptions about depression and anxiety, explain why do we get stuck in bad moods and what tools do we have avaliable to fight against them. I managed to recover from depression and do-nothingism largely thanks to the Feeling Good Podcast with veteran and pioneer psychotherapist David Burns, so of course he and his team have my whole hearted recommendation. That's it, have a great time.

Not able to navigate through all comments in a lesson (pagination)?
So, i've added a comment over here https://www.proko.com/course-lesson/project-simplify-to-csi/discussions And after a day I couldn't find my comment easily. I've noticed that the only way i could find my comment was to sort the comments from oldest to newest, and that there will be only displayed a number of comments in the lesson. But i'm missing an easy functionality to scroll through the comments like a load more button or pagination option.
