Contest, sweet! Wait a minute...is this for the BEST avatar or the crappiest one?

[rumblesushi]

[rumblesushi]

ewurm - I've just realized something. You have a completely obscene amount of posts, you only joined a couple of months ago :eek:

[ewurm]

Yeah, dude, I joined in Feb. I spend quite a good amount of time here, plus I have a desk job. So, I sneak in a handful of posts at work, a bucketfull when I get home, and at least one or two in my sleep. And none of the avatars counted!

[ewurm]

I have MFK for breakfast, MFK for lunch and a Porterhouse steak for dinner with a side of MFK! :thumbsup:

[DanDanUK]

Contest, sweet! Wait a minute...is this for the BEST avatar or the crappiest one?

[loach43]

I like the contests where we have to do something for it instead of just picking a number. :) Stoked!!!

[Don4921]

using a scanned pix is against the rule ;)
can you use a pic and then add to it or does just have to be staight from paint?

[rumblesushi]

using a scanned pix is against the rule ;)

neo that wasn't a scanned pix :)

[rumblesushi]

my avatar contains no photo, it is based on a photo but it's not a photo.

[DanDanUK]

free hand mouse drawing No use of other pic's maybe used in this contest. One blank canvas and you may use pencil, brush, airbrush, rectangle, polygon, ellipse, rounded rectangle basicly just the tools down the left hand side on the MS paint program. NO CUTTING NO STICKING...... FRE HAND ONLY >

[loach43]

Photo of a freehand drawing on paper permitted????

[rumblesushi]

dan yours has a photo, it's not freehand ;)

Mine is freehand, just based on a photo.

[FishHeadSoup]

CUTE contest!!!

[DanDanUK]

dan yours has a photo, it's not freehand ;)

Mine is freehand, just based on a photo.

Thats not getting entered !!!

When we open the contest members will have to download a template which we provide so everyone gets the same size so its fair.

[rumblesushi]

ok cool. I'll do another on this new template, though I think mine is valid. Look at the big one, it has no photo underneath it, it's freehand.

[DanDanUK]

Yours has a photo underneath it, mine doesn't, mine is just based on a photo and has more detail than the other ****ty avatars ;)

[HarleyK]

Okay, enough of the rules discussion. Don't try to find loopholes ;) . I think the basic rules are clear and not hard to understand. :thumbsup: Let the games begin ... soon

I see, so essentially the rules are it has to be really crap, and look like a kid's drawing? :D

Fine, if they are the rules, I'll do another, but like I said mine is not a violation of the rules because it's not a photo :)

Am I allowed to use photoshop or only paint?

[Daniel Machado]

I like mine... Although it won't be in the contest. Ewurm loves him too... :naughty:

Best regards.

Daniel.

[BDawg364]

Yours freaks me out a little...

[Daniel Machado]

It freaks Ewurm too... MUAHAHAHA!

[DanDanUK]

PAINT !!!!

How many times does it have to be said ......... look back though all the posts and it's been said more than 5 times read it !

[DanDanUK]

Yours has a photo underneath it, mine doesn't, mine is just based on a photo and has more detail than the other ****ty avatars ;)

It's not based on quality or pictures its based on FREE HAND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rumblesushi]

It's not based on quality or pictures its based on FREE HAND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dan mine is free hand, it just looks better :D

But to be fair, I did use pshop.

[vanimate]

how about best flash animation?

[rumblesushi]

how about best flash animation?

I'd be up for that :)

Flash is my thing.

[Super G]

Does this work?

[fish head )'>]

Shouldn't the contest be open to nominations only for best and crappiest? Because if you are nominated you know that your avatar is headed for avatar greatness. Or in contrast, like a dead fish: headed for the toilet. This would also narrow the judging field from 897,642 entries to only 10,000 or so! :naughty:

[DiXoN]

mine is done already but it will be shown just yet

[Ash]

I see, so essentially the rules are it has to be really crap, and look like a kid's drawing? :D

Fine, if they are the rules, I'll do another, but like I said mine is not a violation of the rules because it's not a photo :)

MS paint only no photoshop

Also we will be able to determine if you used a photo under and painted over it... its not that hard so dont do it!! ;)

[rumblesushi]

I know it's not that hard, I won't do it, the only point I was trying to make is there was photo in my piece, or under it, it was just based on 2 photos :D ;)

I'll make another one tomorrow, freestyle, paint.

[rumblesushi]

does paint have layers at least? :D

[ewurm]

My avatar will be a drawing of me sitting at my computer wasting my time drawing a paint avatar for someone else while I should be doing laundry.

[concord]

Is my new one ok?:P

[DanDanUK]

does paint have layers at least? :D

Just wait for the rules !!!

It's gettin old now.

[rumblesushi]

Dan - what are the rules then? :D

[HarleyK]

:screwy:

Maybe I was wrong ...
Those who need some extra attention will have to be patient and wait for the rules ;) ... which will be posted sometime soon.

HarleyK

[rumblesushi]

[rallysman]

Rumblesushi:

[guppy]

I need to know how to reduce the size of my avatar, it only goes down to 54k but I need it @ 19k. It will only save as a bitmap through paint. Any suggestions?
Save as bitmap from paint to documents then resave there as jpeg.

[ewurm]

[fishnthings]

GUPPY man your avatar is awesome.. nice job!!!

[vanimate]

[ewurm]

It dont have layers! Paint is crap!
