Rules:
#1 The concept must be original
#2 Renders can be used
#3 Resolution, sizes and format is up to the participant now but for the Res, a max of 300ppi
#4 Following a tutorial for an effect is ok.
#5 1 category = 1 entry

The submission of entries is until November 2, 2010!
Submit the files or links through pm please.
Critiquing and voting of entries will be done through posts in a new thread.

You may also post comments, suggestions or questions here

Do we have to use the sizes you posted, or is that max?
I would also suggest not saying only jpeg, because some (me) prefer png for better quality.

There will be a need and a limit of one entry per category meaning 4 entries if you'll participate all.

umm what does that mean? that we have to enter 4 artworks, one for each category, if we decide to enter?

and how do we enter, do we just send our stuff to you via PM?

600x250 is a gigantic sig..

[virtualTune]

I would much rather do 300ppi, cuz 72 is kinda crappy imo

This.

I say stuff like the resolution and the image format should be up to the user...
where did gimperaven go anyway?

[gimpeRaven]

Sorry for the late reply, I was busy at school because of college week.
I made an update. I want the due date for the contest to be moved for more time, what do you guys think is the best one? (for all of the categories in account )
The Edit function is really helpful so thanks Admins!

[RomaGrafix]

ok cool. For the new due date I' d suggest Nov 2nd.
Also I think you should remove this sentence

There will be a need and a limit of one entry per category meaning 4 entries if you'll participate all.

from the description so it won' t confuse anybody

[gimpeRaven]

For the submission.. Should the links (or files?) of the entries be pm to be collected then a single post consisting of all entries in a thread for poll will be made?

[RomaGrafix]

Yeah I think that would be best, we should just PM them all to you and then when the deadline is over you post them all in a new thread with a poll and let the people vote then. and we still need a new deadline too btw

[gimpeRaven]

Updated! Thanks RomaGrafix. I'll try to participate too so gotta make my entries.
