Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2011
Submission for the good contest is complete, and this turned out to be a very good contest with eight marvelous submissions! All of them look quite good, but which is the best? You decide. Vote for your favorite within one week's time to crown the winner!
The new contest is up, and the theme is
future. With the start of a new year, this seems like the perfect theme to begin the year! Anything related to the future will do, such as future aspirations, futuristic settings, and future versions of people. The future is full of so many possibilities to explore! Good luck and welcome to 2011!
and I just got curious of how many themes Tsukisama actually has on that list~
I hadn't ever counted before, but since you asked, I counted and apparently there are 74 unused themes currently on my list, including the "crossover" idea that DeBaron8 mentioned.
I love both ideas. \o/
So does everyone submit/provide one render for the voting process or something?
In the end, yes, people will only be able to provide one render upon which to be voted. For right now though, you can bring up as many as you want as you decide which is your best suggestion.
I like both ideas too, I looked through my collection and didn't see anything too promising though. I'd say that Coffee will probably have some good renders in his collection. Let us know where the thread for discussing this will be so I can direct further ideas there.
To clear up any confusion on this, here is the current agenda on this same render contest:
- Brainstorming phase: Everyone can think about which renders they like. You can use this thread to discuss what renders you are thinking of suggesting and get feedback from others. This phase will probably last for the next three weeks.
- Nomination phase: I shall create a thread in which each person can post one render. This phase will last a week to allow those who want to make a suggestion time to make a final decision.
- Voting phase: A poll will be added to the nomination thread, and everyone will have one week to cast a vote for his or her favorite of the nominated renders.
If there are any questions or comments about this schedule, please feel free to share them.
I wasn't sure about the Gender crossover idea at first, but now I think it would be very interesting. I also think that just Crossover as a theme could also work and would be more general. There is a lot of great crossover artwork of people from one manga dressing up as characters from another, etc. I kinda remember a sweet one with Konan and Nagato (or Yahiko - can't remember) dressed up as Espada 3 and 4 from Bleach. That was pretty cool.
I think both themes are good, and, as I mentioned earlier, both are now on my list of possible themes. "Gender bender" seems distinct enough that it won't overlap with "crossover."
I actually won it!
