The graphics competition!
 
w00t!

I dunno if this will ever be endorsed, but what the heck.

There will be 3 categories, which are:

Avatars
Banners
Collages

You can enter any one of them, but beware, I'm entering the collage one (would someone please volunteer to judge the collage one please?)

The prize...I dunno...I'll try to make a banner saying "This l33t person has won a prize in t3h Graphics Comp. Bow to her/him!" or something like that.

So, who wants to play?

Kairyu April 8th, 2004 9:17 AM

Cool, sounds like a great idea! If you don't mind I'd like to join, but I'll probably just enter for the avatar category. But if tons of members join up and you still need a judge I'll won't mind filling that position, I like judging picture anyway :cool:.

Perhaps you should contact the art mod and get this thread stickied, that might help get this thread some attention.

The Evil One April 8th, 2004 9:43 AM

Hmm...ok, I'll do that! Who's the Art Mod?

Kairyu April 8th, 2004 10:36 AM

MoonLight, PichuSecretBase, and orange*berry.

I know MoonLight and PichuSecretBase are usually online so you should have no problem finding them via PM. Good luck on your contest.

The Evil One April 8th, 2004 11:26 AM

Okey doke, thanks!

And good luck if you decide to join the competition!

PichuSecretBase April 8th, 2004 11:30 AM

Even though it was never aproved... x.x

The Evil One April 8th, 2004 12:02 PM

YAY!!!

Thanks a lot! *does the "w00t, my topic has been pinned" dance*

PichuSecretBase April 8th, 2004 12:17 PM

Next time yo umake a conmetition.... leave it up to me..

The Evil One April 8th, 2004 12:46 PM

Of course.

BTW, I'm adding an Animation section as well, so yay.

PichuSecretBase April 8th, 2004 1:53 PM

Sorry about that... I was grrr I don't know why XD This week has been near perfect LOL

Cherrim April 8th, 2004 7:36 PM

Have you laid down a deadline, yet? @[email protected]

*might actually get off her lazy butt and enter this contest* o_O

The Evil One April 9th, 2004 2:20 AM

Well, let's set a deadline for signups first...

Singups by Sunday 11th April, the Graphics by Sunday 18th.

To sign up, either post here or PM me. Yeah...

You have to enter two of the five sections (ADDING ANOTHER SECTION XD) because I'm evil.

The New Section is Misc. Graphics. This can be stuff like web-buttons, Splash Images, whatever you want.

So the Five Sections are:

Avatars
Banners
Collages (don't see many people entering this one)
Animations
Misc. Graphics

If there's any sort of graphic art I've missed, let me know, k? Ok.

Kairyu April 9th, 2004 3:11 AM

Entry #1
 
Whoa, the deadline is right around the corner. You sure you don't want to extend that a bit? Oh well, I decided to enter!

One question though, what is the maximum amount of entries you can submit per category?

Anyway, here's my Avatar entry. Its a avatar of "Ninja" Umbreon I made earlier today, its part of a larger picture I drew as a request for lex. Many tell me its one of my best works yet! So why not turn it in the contest? Hehe.

The Evil One April 9th, 2004 3:54 AM

Errm...

Ok, Signups by Tuesday then.

You can have up to three entries for each category, except Collages, where only one will do.

Geometric-sama April 9th, 2004 4:53 AM

I'll enter Avatars, Banners and Misc. Graphics. *nods* Fun with stuff! My new site needs graphics anyway, so this is a good chance.

The Evil One April 9th, 2004 5:29 AM

Ok!

BTW, Kairyu, you need to enter one more section.

And I'm gonna remove the collages, so if you want to make a collage, it now goes in the Misc. Graphics.

*PS, anyone want to help me judge?*

yay!boromir April 9th, 2004 12:45 PM

judge?? what do you need to be a judge

The Evil One April 9th, 2004 12:54 PM

You need to be good at graphics

Cherrim April 9th, 2004 1:00 PM

I'll enter avatars, banners, and misc. graphics. ^_^; I'll get to work on my entries sometime during this weekend.

The Evil One April 9th, 2004 1:17 PM

Yay!!! Welcome to the competition!

Kairyu April 9th, 2004 3:23 PM

Eh, one more? Ok, I'll submit a banner, but I gotta make it first :P. I'll post it in this thread when its all done, hopefully it'll be good XD.

I'd like to judge (judges artwork all the time), but since I already entered the contest it would just be unfair to judge other pieces. But I think what I could do is judge the categories I'm not participating in. Let me know if you think this is acceptable.

The Evil One April 10th, 2004 1:57 AM

Yeah ok, you can help judge the Misc. Graphics section and the Animation section if someone participates

EDIT: New idea.

For the Misc Graphics, how about having actual PC Members decide instead of one or two judges?

Plus, gives me a chance to enter...hehehehehe.

I'll give you a sneak peek at one of my entries... :P

Geometric-sama April 14th, 2004 5:18 AM

Can you extend the deadline for graphics a few more days? I don't know if I'll make it, I'm still getting used to my brand-new tablet XD

ASG April 14th, 2004 5:41 AM

Anti-Spam-Yeah, ok...you can joinz0rz

Geometric-sama April 15th, 2004 3:56 AM

BTW, ASG, remember you have to enter 3 categories! *nods* Thanks TEO, that gives us the weekend to work on it before school starts again.

StarLightUmbreon April 15th, 2004 4:07 AM

I hope i got every thing right now.

Geometric-sama April 15th, 2004 5:19 AM

Hey, they look pretty cool! Good luck XD

The Evil One April 15th, 2004 8:10 AM

lex-Your duty...is to rate Avatars and banners.

Jedi-It's two categories.

StarLight-Ok...You'll probably win the Animation section...so I need to make something to give you some competition. lex, you must judge the animation section by yourself.

Yay me.

lex April 15th, 2004 6:23 PM

Alright sounds cool,one more question though,I judge after the deadline right(?am i asking stupid questions?)

The Evil One April 16th, 2004 1:35 PM

Yes is the answer to both questions.

lex April 16th, 2004 2:38 PM

Well, I guess I'll do some animation to combat that XD. Can it be Flash? And here are some avatars and banners and stuff...

STaLIS April 17th, 2004 7:59 AM

Is there any possibility I can enter for just one section. I was on vacation in Zambia and only just got back today. So I hadn't heard about this. I'm sure I can whip something up for the avatars aection ;-)

The Evil One April 18th, 2004 2:16 AM

Stalis-Sorry, has to be two.

Here's another avatar, based on my favourite song: 3 Doors Down's "Away From The Sun" XD

STaLIS April 18th, 2004 4:22 AM

right OK, i'll try to put something together for one. And maybe for the second one can I enter something I did about 3 months ago or does it have to be new?

Geometric-sama April 18th, 2004 4:25 AM

Stalis, it can be from any time! XD

The Evil One April 18th, 2004 5:48 AM

t3h l33tness.

THREE DAYS LEFT PEOPLE!!!

Right, here is my first drawing. I don't know what section this would go into. Probably misc. I know it's not that good, but hey I may as well enter for the fun of it.

I'm open to comments and constructive critiscism.

I probably should have colored this in PSP but the deadline is too near. I hope you like it!

It came out slightly slanted to the right off the scanner but never mind!

Oh yes. I made the pose myself, but I wasn't sure if Torchic had a tail so I drew him/her without. If anyone could tell me I would try to alter it on PSP

Edit: ****, I forgot my motto: Simplicity is everything

OMG, since when is the word d a m n swearing???

The Evil One April 18th, 2004 8:47 AM

Nice!

It isn't just drawings, btw...

STaLIS April 18th, 2004 8:57 AM

Yeah I know that but I find it much easier to draw than use my tablet and PSP, PHS.

Glad you like it...

Oh and could I request that there could be a Graphics comp like once a month or so. Because it's a great way to show your art without creating a thread just for it..

LanceLite April 18th, 2004 9:27 AM

I Must Enter!!!!
 
I MUST ENTER THIS COMPETITION!!! I MUST, I MUST, I MUST!!! Oh wait, if I just posted that in this thread that means I auto entered.... Kwesi's ingenious invention of auto contest entering machine for PC works great...

pls ignore me, my brain's damaged. I'm entering a banner on Golden Sun 2 (more of a sig banner *points at own sig*) and an avatar of a pikachu in a frame. If the don't qualify for those two categories pls get them in the misc. for me.

LanceLite April 19th, 2004 8:58 AM

Geometric-sama April 19th, 2004 8:10 PM

Hey Stalis, there *was* a "cute Pokémon" contest a while back, but it never got judged... if we have another one, I guess I'll just enter my pic from that XD

STaLIS April 20th, 2004 4:53 AM

I'm working on my second pic now. I'm not sure, I might try to use my tablet that I can hardly use or I might draw a sketch of ......... Haven't thought of anything yet. I have 24 hours, ahhhhhhhh

LanceLite April 20th, 2004 7:31 AM

The Evil One April 24th, 2004 11:34 AM

lex-You go through them all and give a rating. I'll judge the Avy section on my own, seeing as you're doing the Animation and Banner section by yourself.

LanceLite-I'm gonna post my thingys for the Avatar section after lex has done rating.

THE MISC SECTION IS A PUBLIC VOTE SECTION!!! *thinks about making a topic for people to vote in*

ASG April 24th, 2004 12:51 PM

The Evil One April 26th, 2004 11:02 AM

Ok, seeing as I can only judge one comp, because I've entered every other one XD, I'm gonna go ahead and post who I think made the best avy.
