When you feel an artistic bent, there's no need to rush out and buy art supplies. Here's a website where you can draw online, plus view and rate others' creative efforts.

1. Go to RateMyDrawings (ratemy drawings.com), an online drawing community where nearly 60,000 artists are exhibiting artwork they have created on the site. To take advantage of all site options, you will need to register (free) with an email address.

2. You can test the drawing tools, but won't be able to save your work until you register. Click the tutorials tab for helpful how-to information. Advanced users can access the Java-based drawing application, which is similar to Adobe Photoshop.

3. View other artists' creations by clicking the top artists, top works, recent works and collections tabs. As the website's name indicates, you can rate works. You also can chat with other members as you draw and enter competitions to win prizes.
