[Holt]

Tfw he became the authority he went against..
The potrait contest already has so many amazing entries. Good shots guys

 

[Spirit]

Yeah the irony of that fact is sort of what made me give him a vote in the first place

 

[Pebbles]

Unfortunately, we've already had all the Avatar & Signature set contests planned so there will be none for the remainder of the year.
The Schedule and themes for upcoming contests are posted in the theme/suggestion thread linked above.

@Holt is the Autumn Art Contest restricted in any way to only drawing?

 

[Riku]

Well I'm not the organizer, so don't count on my word, but I asume the form is pretty free. I've seen comic-like stories done with photos, so why not.

As for my question, if I understood correctly all it had to be is a "strip" right? So it can be sunday form (a bit longer than 3-4 panels) or even 4-koma?

 

[Holt]

@WithYouInSpirit No, it won't be restircted, however, only original works are allowed here. That is, you can't use images (either drawing or photos) that were done by someone else.

@Ustegius Well, this was your theme but yeah, either is allowed

Oh god I really suck at drawing but I suppose it won't hurt to try

 

[Holt]

There was a little bug with the polls that only allowed one vote instead of two. That has been fixed so you may use the change vote option to go back and pick two entries. Thanks for understanding.

 

[Utsune]

Voting on the Portrait Photography has ended. Congratulations to @DiMaria Yesta on a watery first place, @WithYouInSpirit fluffy second, and everyone else who participated.

Congrats, @DiMaria Yesta

 

[Spirit]

I got second place? Thanks guys
Congrats @DiMaria Yesta

 

[Holt]

Due to a mixup in the eligibility of entries for this contest and subsequent disqualification of an entry, the Autumn Art Contest will remain open until 11 PM GMT, September 22, 2016. Edits/changes to existing submissions as well as new submissions will be allowed during this period.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused and thanks for your understanding.

You can now vote in the Autumn art contest! In addition, the new contest is live and the theme abstract banner!
The poll for the coloring theme is also up. Don't forget to participate

 

[Temperance]

What should we do if we can't find the artist of the banner?

Then maybe you should link the primary or at least the secondary source. Not google, but the site that you took the image from

@NDAP @GodDarkness you did read the instructions right? The logo and any major patterning are supposed to be on the left half, because the rightmost 230 px is reserved for the search window

 

[Temperance]

I'll change this as soon as I can.
Does it counts as another entry even if we just put the logo on the left?
Sowwy for this a have a very bad memory
