Seems ok by me. I'm glad of the topic to use the program. B)

Others are more skilled than me, but I figure I've more imagination. *brags*


See this thread

I think they ar all great, a comp defo sounds the way to go with us the great unwashed voting on a favorite............i'm open to bribes by the way

^ LOL ^

This is fun, good practise

Though i am new to this forum a would love to enter in a competition but only on the grounds its not taken to seriously after all it should be fun to enter and we should encourage other members to join in?

Another thing we need someone independent to think of what kind of sig we have to make each time someone who doesn't enter in to the competition only suggests themes and controls the thread?

We should be allowed a proper signature size i suggest 500x300 what do you think?

Sig size is 500 x 120. (forum rules)

The prize is getting the person to use the sig...what higher accolade is there?




Hey Tusc...lets see what you can do with Andrew 1960.

Here's the kickoff. (I'll find better, but it's a start.)



or even....

this is my first effort ...........



I really dont know the person so have have only your sig to go by?

We may be sorting out a true completion.

and to make it fair it'll be a sort of non-person...random details and a googled pic, then see what we make of it.

That's how I'd do it.

(PS...it's "else")

cool what ever i'm happy to take part but i think it should just be done on themes and we sort out our own pictures or words that way we get a varied mix of signatures............but really it's up to you lot i dont mind ether way.........

Else DOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!


(PS.. Its competition LOL )

That flag one is good.

Three themes? Three sigs?

Fantasy/Romance

Action/Abstract

Free form/ name+pic

?

you do what ever and i will just follow ok whens it gonna start?

Last one until competition starts

so when does this competition stuff start?

is it gonna have its own thread?

why am i talking to myself?

am i mad?

do i smell?

oh bum i spilt my tea...............................

We're sorting out rules and stuff now. But if anyone has any comments or suggestions about competitions please feel free

Love the castle one Tuscan....but you spelt "else" wrong

Yeah that had been pointed out already DOH!!!!

So whens the comp starting?

and is it just us three doing it a would love other people to join in..............?

Would think anyone can enter...the more the merrier, me thinks

Would be great if more enter but i dont know who else does this stuff?

Any last minute competition suggestions before we get going?

I like this one it looks "Scottish" with the flag, clouds and the Robbie Burns quote.

Dunno if this is in the right place?

Just an idea for future competitions, if we all have the same pics to play with, it's always interesting to see what different things can be done.

How do you mean?

Oh sorry i misread "same pics"

Yes that would be a good idea. We could give you a few particular images and tell you what text to use and see what everyone comes up with

Well that sound well and good but dont you find that abit restrictive babylon......................

A bit, but its interesting to see different styles given the same pics...

I wish we could go bigger for the comp say 400x400 ... the sig size is very limiting

but rules are rules and I always do as I'm told

I said that at the beginning the sig size is small but they wont change it...........

It doesnt always have to be sig competitions. It can be general pics of different sizes too

cool

Can't wait

The new competition will be announced soon. AB was gonna post it last night but i think the site was down.

We're in the middle of thinking of the next comp. It was discussed last night and we're just working on the final details now

i cant ever vote cause u do it over a weekend

Dont worry we might get this one in very soon

yay i wana vote
x

Don't drink then hehehehe

So what are peoples views on the competitions so far? How are our ideas for them? etc

I've loved them, wish I had more time to enter them all.

Glad you're enjoying them. Do you think we should do them less often maybe?

Could do with more time on each one I only just got my one in on time.

That seems fair. We'll probably extend the time, then

Taken from the Comp #6 thread

Thats given me an idea maybe we should do a competition about some one on this forum?

we could do a picture or something (not a sig though because thats been done) what do you think?

that's a good idea tuscan

It does if you pick on the right person hehehehe

I'm think i'll finish my pic for the comp tomorrow morning
after my nightshift and it will help to have a little bram just
so nessie feels relaxed you understand

Everyone still happy with how the competitions are going? I'm not talking about who's winning

yes lol they're going good

I didn't do the story one, to much typing for me it reminded me to much of school homework
(not that puters had been invented then) but the competitions give a bit of a buzz to the old place and get people posting so keep them coming but I don't have any photo editing software so my sigs are a bit plain but i I give it a go for a bit of fun.

haha 500 words isn't enough for me I have to redo it cos I can't get a solid ending to it.

I had to chop bits out too. 500 sounds a lot, but it isn't.

it really isn't 1000 might've done it

Sorry you two i was talking about Graphics competitions

Devil, try GIMP. Its better than paint, but still free. I use it

I think all the comps are great i wish there was more of them ...........

That'd be good more comps yey!! As soon as I think of how to change my short story...
