Re: The Summer Art Contest
"Eh....how could you do that...the contest started in mid July and you could have submitted something before you go to China. Anyway, I'll hope to see your entries in future. ^^"
I usually go back and "fix" parts since I find things that I think could be better when I look at them again, that's why. I figured on bringing my external so I could work on it some more at my uncle's before submitting, but somehow I forgot to put it in my bag before leaving.
"On other news, we're sad to inform that no voting is gonna be held for both of the Coloring Battles and the Creativity Contests, due to lack of participants. We want to hear your inputs on this - should we kill those categories, stick with them, change something? We got a bit sad over this, as the Coloring Battle was created due to user requests, and the Creativity one was just something new we wanted to test...
So comment, please ^^ "
Hm... maybe you could try voting for a panel/page to be colored? Say you guys pick a bunch of existing linearts with the artists' permission and have people vote for the one they want to color. That way the people who color (and the people who see the finished pieces) get some say in what they want to color.
"Hey, just noticed... the artists themselves can vote on their own entries =O Is there some way of fixing this?"
If all the people that vote are just the artists, then everyone ties for first place!
Haha, it's not really something to worry about.
Maybe you can garner more participants if you changed it to something specific? Like say, an AMV contest? I guess it's hard for people to know where to start if you just say they can do anything they want. It might also be unfair to judge which entry is more "creative" if they're totally different mediums in the first place.
(I do feel so, for my own entry....)
