Nice site, but when looking at an inkers site one must quote the awful terrible, terrible movie "Chasing Amy"
*ahem* "You aren't an artist! You're a tracer! You don't draw anything, you just trace over someone else's drawings with a pen! You're a TRACER!!!"
(note: hmmmm, that probably sounded a bit negative, so now would be a good place to say: inkers are cool! I wish I could ink well -_-)

He he, well, some inkers have a good style, and some times, they help a crappy drawing to look cool, or at least decent

actually ask any professional artist and he'll tell you that in the final product the most important thing is not the pencils, its the inking. pencillers get a lot of credit (from me and everyone else) but if you dont have a good inker, youre in trouble.
i only know because i try to ink my own stuff and its horrible. its easy to make pencils look good - there is a lot of texture. but none of that texture exists in inking... for artists, just try inking your own stuff and youll see how much you'll (probably) suck at it. i know i do.

I don't suck at it, but that's because I've been inking for a long time. Inking requires a whole nother style of art than sketching does, and it's very dependant on quality of line. If you can't make thinner or thicker lines and give weight to the characters with subtle devices, then your art will be very flat.
