4th Art Contest

Postby MessengerOfDreams » May 10th, 2011, 9:18 am

I apologize deeply for the 3rd AC. It was a wreck due to computer caused disappearances on my behalf and then returning to a chocolaty clusterf**k on my return. I realize that the theme was a doozy so I understand if you didn't want to enter.

Here's hoping this goes better.

THIS MONTH'S TOPIC:

Signatures.

What I want you to do is make a signature for another forum member; not yourself. Take into account what he likes and then present! Simple enough right? But there's a twist. And that twist is... that for once there is no twist. XD A twist in itself.

RULES
No real special rules, just limit yourself to one, but fine tune it.
Also, if you want to create an avatar to go with it, go ahead. It's not mandatory, but it could add to it. On the other hand, it could take away.


HOW THE JURY RATES
Same standard as all the previous contests. You can get a max of 20 points.

10 points: Eye-Catching Appeal
Simply, does it look good? Are we drawn to it? Are we interested in it?
5 points: Character Capture
Does your subject think it personifies it? Does he like it?
5 points: Effort
Did you just google random pics and insert them or did you make it completly on your own?

The calculated average of all ratings is your final score.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE
After you finished your sig, upload it to imageshack or another similar site and post the link here. You may use Image tags.

HOW TO APPLY FOR JUDGE
I'd like to get a team of great sigmakers together for this one, to get a high quality review from the pros. I'll be included due to my fame as a sigmaker. (Won Runouw awards for mine and a win for the one I made for Fourinone.)

!! JUDGES CAN ENTER A SUBMISSION, BUT THEY CAN'T RATE THEIR OWN !!

END OF PARTICIPATING: June 14th
As always, you can arrange personal extensions if you are away during the contest. However, don't expect too long, because this is an easy challenge.

Prizes
Shiny medal, I guess. We can also make a gallery of all entries. Plus if your recipient sigs your sig you get badass recognitions, particularily in Summer's Runouw awards.

Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites. A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.

Maybe I'll join this because there are no other rules, maybe I'll be crashing someone's browser with this kind of entry. :troll: I'll make a sig for Suyo. All the programs I need is Windows Vista Paint, GIMP 2.6, and Game Maker 8.0 Lite. :P But first, I'll have to PM him what he likes. :awe:

Hey MoD, I've tried to PM Suyo about what he likes but I got no reply. :o.o: MoD, can I make an "Experimental Minecraft-Like Signature" for him? He likes Minecraft, right? :awe:
