Graphic Artist of the Month - Jinpo - 12-31-2006
I feel like conducting starting up a monthly Graphic Artist of the Month competition. It would involve artists making sigs, wallapers, new banners for Chubbs, or anything that can be made. Also, unique competitions could be held, such as Tag Team battles.
So, if you are up for it, post here.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Sullivan - 12-31-2006
Hell yes I am.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Aero - 12-31-2006
Sure, why not.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Talys - 01-01-2007
Bam!
That's a yes.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Alura - 01-01-2007
Who would judge?
Graphic Artist of the Month - Hellfighter 17 - 01-01-2007
I think it would be awesome if teh contestants could discuss and decide that. Whoever they are all able to agree upon would be the judge(s).
Graphic Artist of the Month - Captain Silver - 01-01-2007
I think I should be a judge.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Aqua - 01-01-2007
I'd be a judge as well, should you need one.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Grandpa Gohan - 01-01-2007
Same. Ill judge, but im not sigging for awhile xD lol need a break
Graphic Artist of the Month - Old Captain Silver - 01-01-2007
I'll be a contestant =D
Graphic Artist of the Month - Sullivan - 01-01-2007
I think the three who volunteered would be ideal judges.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Jinpo - 01-01-2007
Yeah. You don't have to sign up. Just submit artwork when the contest starts.
The three who volunteered can be judges.
How I think should go is that there will be three sections of the challenge per month:
The first is a standard signature battle where anyone who wants to enter can. There will be a common theme and the judges will rank the sigs from best to worst. Points will be distributed accordingly with first place getting 10. Depending on the number, the scale will be different.
Duration: One Week
The second challenge would be the 1 on 1 battle portion. Any contestant can challenge another competitor to a battle making any type of artwork. Each type of artwork is worth the same amount of points. The winner will get 10 points and the loser can get a certain amount of points depending on the judges taste. Duration: One Week
The last challenge is Judge's Choice. These will (hopefully) be unique battle or submission events. It is on the whim of the judges what you will be doing. Could be a tag team battle or it could be a signature using sprites only. Who knows? Points depend on the event
Duration: 1-2 weeks depending on the event
Optional Challenge: If there is time at the end of the month, the top two scorers can have a final battle for supremacy.
If no one has a problem with it and seeing as this is January 1st . . . we could get started today.

Heres what we were gonna do on my last RPG. Just an idea.

Quote:Okay... I finally got around to putting this up when I have been planing on doing it since the begining of the month, but really, with the type of event that this is, its not gonna really matter how long you have because of the set up of this month. You see... I have come with a different approach to this, again taking an idea from Solid Snake Designs The four with the highest points at the end of the month will face off in a four way battle to see who the winner is. There is certain terms below that must be followed.
Event Constraints
? You may not battle someone more than once in three days.
? You may not use previously designed signatures, all signatures must be unique to the battle.
? All votes must be bolded in some way, by either bolding the name of the winner, or bolding a 'My Vote:' with the name of your choice afterwads.
? All votes, after all combatants have entered their peices, must be accompanied by a reason on why you chose that peice as the winner.
Challenge Format
All battle challenges must be made either targeting a single person or making it open for anyone to accecpt and must be accompanied with the following information within the started thread.Okay now hopefully that is all clear. And we can move onto the points system.
- ? Theme: (The theme of the peice, wether it be none, grunge, sad, music, anime, character based or what not)
? Style: (Signature, larger peice, website layout, photomanipulation, vector, etc.)
? Size: (Give mininum and maximum size of peice wanted, direct size, or say it must be a certain size, like signature size.)
? Programs: (What programs you are both allowed to use, Photoshop, Paintshop Pro, C4D, MS Paint, or other, you choose.)
? Brushes: (Yes or no on wether they can be used or not.)
? Stock Photos: (Yes or no on wether they can be used or not.)
? Animation: (Yes or no on wether they can be used or not.)
? Due Date: (Give a specific date, or say ASAP.)
? Votes: (Must be the first to 3 or more, you choose, please dont go over 5 thou)
Points System
Certain types of battles are worth more points, such as larger peices and one that involve more work are worth more. Listed below are the points for certain sizes.
? Signatures = 1 point
? 300 x 300 to 500 x 500 = 2 points
? Wallpaper = 3 points
? Layouts = 4 points
Other events may come up that need special points because they fit one but are more difficult but fit, then I will step in and award more as the prize before the battle starts. If you are unaware of what you should label it, please post here with questions.
Okay... now hopefully everyone has an idea of what is going on, anyquestions please post here. You may start battling NOW!
You can use it if you want too.

That can be the format for the battle week portion of the competition.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Talys - 01-01-2007
Whoo! Let's start.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Grandpa Gohan - 01-01-2007
I don't have a problem with y'all startin' today.
Graphic Artist of the Month - Captain Silver - 01-01-2007

Graphic Artist of the Month - Grandpa Gohan - 01-01-2007
Lol, what I get for being asleep all day. I didnt sleep for shit last night x_x
Graphic Artist of the Month - Captain Silver - 01-01-2007
xD
Regardless.
January GAOTM - Week 1
Graphic Artist of the Month - Grandpa Gohan - 01-03-2007
Bumping this so people post here, instead of the thread where the graphics are supposed to go =(
Also- GAOTM doesn't imply that anyone is better than another. It simply states, that in the compeition, for that month, they did the best. Everyone who does graphics on these boards are great. Kudos to those enter the competition. I think it shows people are confident in their work to put it up against anothers.
