I'm not suggesting we MAKE a place for begginners, I'm saying we find a place that already exists.
On the topic of edits, I think I had a very different history than you guys. Back in 2001 Pixeltendo was a very different community. Everyone was a begginner, we made edits, recolors, sprite comics and celebrated them. But we grew up and got onto bigger better things.
Eventually our goal was to make some awesome sprites for our awesome site. (something people don't care to do anymore but I digress) Point is edits will not improve your skills but they will introduce you to pixels, give you a feel for how things work.
Remember when you used to trace your hand and make a turkey out of it? That took no skill, yet when you went to show mommy and daddy you expected them to be proud.
I believe edits are important for the developmental process of a spriter and they need to be in a community with other people like them, just as I once was.
