No Pam you don't have to post it in your gallery - although one would hope you'd do something you'd be proud enough to display there ;)

Man i hate the way the date changes around depending where you live. I always read it dd/mm/year

I might join but I seriously don't have any ideas about the subject. Maybe next time^^

Lets see. I didn't expect so many responds :p
The date is ten of December, twenty o'seven - tell me if it's enough time for you. It's about 2 weeks left - is it enough for you or you want some more time for your wonder?
I prefer to make it anonymous challenge . I'll gother all the images - I mean you pm me in secret the link to your work and I make a big topic of all the works, with mine too.
I want the fight to be fair with no influence of popularity of participants - that why the works are gonna be anonymous.
If you recognize the artist's style - it's something different - I even like the idea of figuring out who's work it is :)
Thats putting me out of voting ,of course
It would be small thumbnail with name and letter to each work and the voter would pick lets say 3 works from all, and write at the comments field :
"Guys, you're all amazing, but I have to choose:
1.A. Snowflake
2.E. Santa
3.W. New Year's Orc killing New Year's Elf "
After month of voting - we will see 3 winners - first, second and third place.
I'm doing it for fun :) Don't think I'll pay million to the winner - it's just for pure artistic progress and fun.I'm commissioned artist and I do want to paint for fun too!
I'm glad to see enthusiastic people here.
To the winners - maximum I can suggest to make additional activity of drawing/modelling/photomanipulating or photographing rewards for each winner ^_-
I'll make my rewards for sure (I feel responsibility for starting this) - but it doesn't have to hold you from adding yours ;) - you can post rewards in your gallery if you want - I think it can be fun too :)
What do you think?

Ideas.. Wonder - can be any wonder - think of magic - draw witch and put a Santa hat on her, think of your personal wonder and try to connect it to New Year
Or think about something wonderful that happened to you During a New Year.
Last New Year Eve I've spent in bed with my boyfriend. We were wearing Santa hat , drinking champaign and eee ... In short, it was wonderful :)
It can be some New Years fairy or another fantastic creature that was born at the New Year - c'omon, work your imagination - that theme is not here to bound you, but to give you a huge field to play. I just want to connect it to upcoming New Year

sounds like you are giving your self ALOT of work and trying to keep track of all the votes might be very hard..
unless you upload this to your home page and put in a voting script?

Re: I challenge you! Avatar
Mert | 11/20/2007 @712 | Editedit post
Ok, wait, I don't get it :)
We give you links, and then you post'em as new artworks and/or as forum posts?
If just forum posts, how are we gonna be voting?
God, I'm dumb ^^

Well it's not so hard to count.. But if one of the admins can arrange some vote system - it would be nice.. Me and programming aren't going together :p It's my first time trying to arrange something like that so any help can be useful. But I like the idea of anonymous competition

I doubt that admins would add anything.
You could register a username for the challanges and post the entries with that, then post an announcement in the forums to check the works.

maybe a poll. just enter "create poll" into google, there are a few sites, which offer free polls.

EDIT: I have tried one: http://snappoll.com/poll/233610.php

Overall it's taking 2 threads - one is announcement of theme and agreeing about deadline + everyone who wants to participate comes and says "Hello, I'm in"
second - is the topic with the works and the voting system

Ok, but will you do as said above and register a new gallery in gfx just for the competitions. It will be easier for the voting system, don't you think?
