Okay, entries over, creating voting thread now.

If you're going to stroke something that is not small sized text, use two or higher.

Gairy, that is the best sig ever.

[quote name='okandjo' timestamp='1283253213' post='2436931'] Agreed, adding colour filters on other ARTISTS' creations... Adding fire/ice/swirls/clouds on other ARTISTS' creations... and not giving any credit to the original artist for which your piece of work is BASED upon? It's funny how no one has given a reason why submissions shouldn't show the original images that they use in their signature, other than "We are the self-appointed rule makers, so we decide." At least give credit by name. [b]imo, that is just showing basic respect to other artists, and if you do not have this respect than you do not deserve other people's respect as an artist.[/b] [/quote] So you're saying that everyone who made a sig for any SOTW contest in history just plagiarised it from someone else?

[quote name='Voytek' timestamp='1283250817' post='2436921'] I'm interested in becoming a real artist. Are there any good tutorials you can recommend? [/quote] I'm sure there's one on exiting this thread I can find for you.

[quote name='King Todd' timestamp='1283250190' post='2436916'] I understand you are trying to save what little reputation remains of this thread, but insulting my intentions and posting smilies is not going to make me leave. [/quote] What do you expect when you just come in here and say the exact same thing that has been said by about 5 other people? Just go play with the "People's SOTW" and leave this one to the real artists.

[quote name='King Todd' timestamp='1283249050' post='2436908'] Thats fine. I simply stated my opinion of how fixed/ lame this "contest" is. [/quote] Another person who needs to keep out of threads like these. Seriously, if you're going to give a dicey opinion like that, keep it to yourself. Or are you just trying to get in good with the other people who seem to crave the attention?

Uh oh, MHA 5 points ahead and with the Devil's number, just waiting for Admin to reset CN now.

Updated

[quote name='Rhobar II' timestamp='1283203587' post='2436113'] Okay, here's my submission: [img]http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/9215/dictator.jpg[/img] [/quote] Best sig ever. Would use it if was legal.

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283206978' post='2436175'] What is more annoying? Me following along with the topic of this thread or your obsession with me? I suggest you return your focus to the contest. [/quote] No I think your direct and indirect attacks are more annoying. Maybe you should focus on posting less.

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283205493' post='2436148'] It has an orange in it, and the theme is orange. Too whimsical. [/quote] Looks like I was right, you really have nothing better to do than continue coming back and being an annoyance.

[quote name='potato' timestamp='1283170094' post='2435695'] To be honest, the way Davian Thule rejects entries doesn't make me want to participate in those competitions whatsoever. Let's be honest here, Davian, you pretty much follow tutorials (save from a little colour/effect here and there) and put your entry as if it were yours. Sure, it's a good exercise. FOR YOU. But it doesn't make it more original than Believland's red rectangle. [/quote] I did it once and you're going to hold me to it aren't you? I'm sorry that I used a tutorial to make something that was put on a website for all to use and never said anything about not making their own version. I made a version which was similar, but did have some of my own points on it. If you and the rest of the people who're attacking me for a prior instance could get over yourselves for a minute I think we'd all be better for it. If you're not going to participate don't say "Oh this and that makes me not want to." guess what, no one cares and if they do, they need to get their heads read. Anyway, that's enough of that, back on track. You know full well that my reasons for rejecting them were real and if you made something and then random idiots came around and ruined it you'd be pretty annoyed too.

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283147218' post='2435545'] Oh yeah, I'm going to make an image so you can make up some random excuse to reject it. I'll get right on that. [/quote] If it's a proper entry I'd have no problem with accepting it. If it's like one of the blank rectangles posted so far, of course I'll reject it.

Woo a gain. Damn GATO, get off the 'roids.

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283143694' post='2435497'] Play nice? You're the one rejecting people's work and making up reasons for it on the fly. I'm trying to defend them. I'm arguing in favour of fairness. [/quote] You're not arguing in fairness at all, you're just indirectly attacking me with all your plagiarism comments and you know full well that's all you're here to do. It's getting old and I really couldn't care what you say. So how 'bout you make a submission or stop coming back.

[quote name='Believland' timestamp='1283143590' post='2435493'] Quality work. But, I like my idea of a cthutulu in it though. [/quote] Already beat you to it.

The only red is used by the TE Mod staff, not Admin. Accepted none the less.

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283143226' post='2435486'] I seriously think your contest needs more artistic integrity. [/quote] I seriously think you need to stop coming back to this thread or play nice.

[quote name='Believland' timestamp='1283143038' post='2435480'] It's far more complex than that. It must be based off of a color that is used by one of the moderation teams but, cannot just be that color. [/quote] No no, it can be just that colour, but there has to be other images in there. A blank filled document with a single colour and a border is simply not even trying and as for Liam, you just based it off of them and jumped on the "lulz" train.

[quote name='Masterof9puppets' timestamp='1283142774' post='2435472'] Okay, so basically the objective of this contest is to have a signature that is....based off of....a colour? What the hell? [/quote] The main colour needs to be one of the Moderator colours. My signature is Warcraft themed but it's basic colour is blue like the Senior Staff. [quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283142992' post='2435477'] And most of it needs to be stolen from other artists. But that goes without saying. [/quote] I seriously think you need to give it a rest.

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283142561' post='2435465'] And Lavo's main colour was red. [/quote] I saw, but there wasn't enough in the image for me to consider it an entry, soz.

[quote name='Titus Pullo' timestamp='1283142312' post='2435461'] Perhaps you should just decide what the vote is going to be while you're at it. [/quote] Okay, I'll get right on that, sir.

[quote name='okandjo' timestamp='1283141903' post='2435457'] [img]http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/1184/stolenz.png[/img] Not sure what this represents... You tell me [code][img]http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/1184/stolenz.png[/img] [/code] [/quote] Denied, image is far too crowded.
