[official] Avatar Contest 28-10-2008

First topic message reminder :



Its time for you ... yes you the members of forumotion, to help us. Our avatar gallery is seriously in need of a make over, with so many helping hands on the forum why not ask the members to do something??

The theory is simple... we need 30 new avatars for the avatar gallery. The graphics staff and moderation staff of forumotion's forum of the forums will be responsible for half of the avatars and the other 15 are member made.

Its time to take out your Photo.net and your GimpShop applications out of the closet and onto your monitor. We are looking for avatars with a forumotion feel... so we want greens and blues and oranges.
Everybody participating is entitled to download a resource pack which I have specially prepared for you guys. The resource pack consists of 4 images... two of them are the green monster, all redesigned by me. The other 2 images are a surprise... they didn't make the cut for the forumotion shop... so maybe they'll come to use here.

Every avatar has to be 150x200 pixels ... if you don't match these specifications your art won't qualify for voting. Your avatar has to contain at least one image from the resource pack... twist it and turn it how you wish as long as the forumotion accent is in the avatar.

the vitals in a pill:

Avatar size: 150x200 ONLY
at least 1 resource image must be used
We need it to use forumotion colors and style
Due date ... 2 weeks from now the 11-11-2008
max 3 avatars per member
No animated avatars

Contest ends 11-11-2008 ... all entries will be judged by the stunning staff of forumotion's help site.
The top 15 avatars will make it along with professionally made avatars of the gfx staff to the avatar gallery.
So in general your reward is having your avatar featured on the avatar gallery, so everyone can use it at any time.

Start posting your works now.
this thread will be a comment and entry thread. 11-11 remember...

LOVE PLACEHOLDS!! And Jalo that has to be a mixing desk.

Paint your last one has too much going on, try removing the faded rank images and it will look better.

//EDIT
The upload page went down, so my pics are down, but i'll try to get them back, since the upload page was mine i should have them in my FTP, where i get access till i have changed my domain.

Here's one that I quickly whipped up while not studying...

hum love MaTu's set but the images are a bit pixolated on the edges and Dr's and Scamites do not use Blue and Orange that much...
