Create Chimes a Stock Pack!



<img://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099410932.jpg>


-What's this?
Well, I'm glad you asked. I thought of this little contest while trying to think of ways to boost activity and submissions over at Reference Pictures, the aim is to create a stock pack for me to make a manipulation from (if you need a couple of samples of my work visit: CCASP: Samples). The stock packs will be put into the Reference Pictures archives enabling you to become one of the Reference Photographers - that's if you don't mind having them in there. Please note that this is not an official contest.

-What is a Stock Pack?
A Stock Pack is a set or series of images used to create a photomanipulation. It can include (but is not limited to): Landscapes, interiors, model stocks, animal stocks, object stocks and textures.

-What will I get if I participate?
A little unofficial badge, made by myself. If you choose to allow your pack to be submitted to Reference Pictures then you will also receive the badge of the Reference Photographers. You also get the warm feeling of taking part.

-What will I get if I win?
If you win I will be making a manipulation out of your stock, which will be dedicated to you and it will be for you. If you have a DeviantART account, I will feature you in my journal over there. I am also trying to think of some other little goodies for you.
Plus all of the prizes for participation.

-How will it be judged?
I haven't quite decided yet but the options are: public vote, a panel of judges or my personal choice.

Rules



1. Images MUST be yours and must adhere to the uploading art rules.
If they are not yours you will be disqualified from this contest and reported to the guards. Collaborative efforts are allowed, but please limit your teams to three at most.

2. There must be at least three images in your stock pack and entries must be placed on separate (exported) wikis.
One of the three images must be some sort of background, the other two can be to enhance said background. For example: your images could be as follows, a field, stormy sky and a horse. Feel free to put as many images in as you like, I will try to incorperate all of them, if you win.

3. You must make a note of whether you are willing to have your packs submitted to Reference Pictures or not.
This is not necessary but it would be nice if you would allow it, remember that if you agree your images will be free for anyone on Elftown to use. If you are using recognisable human models that are not yourself I will need written permission from them to use the images. This is the same with Reference Photos, you may choose to do this using the Elftown Media Release Form.

4. Good quality photos, please.
Grainy or pixelated images are somewhat hard to work with, so good quality images are necessary.

5. Stick to the theme.
There will not always be a theme, see below for details If this goes well I will be doing several rounds of this contest.

6. Have fun!
That one is simple. :P

2008-12-30 [Skydancer]: Oh, I do photo manips too, though these are supposed to be for Chimes and to help the stock galleries. I just picked out an assortment. :)

2008-12-30 [Chimes]: Thank you for answering, Dukey! You were right, as usual. :D

Oooo! *runs to look at the pictures* *is excited* ^^

Awesome, [Easterling], I can't wait. :)

2008-12-30 [Easterling]: I'm just going to take a second look at the others' wikis so that I understand more what you're looking for..

2008-12-30 [Yuriona]: Dang it [Skydancer]! Now I have to add more photos to my stock pack! LMAO!

2008-12-30 [Skydancer]: {Grins} Need a bunch of you in there too. Mix it up lots. :D

2008-12-30 [Mordigen]: ooo, thankyou sky :) I like the based in atlanta part, because that means it's easy access for me XD

I hope I can find one, and recieve it before there gets to be too many entries and a deadline set so I can participate :) of course, I'm not going to ask for anyone to wait on me, because that's not fair and there's no guarantee that I can get one that quickly because I'm on a very very very strict budget, but I hope! I hope I can make it XD *crosses fingers*

2008-12-30 [Chimes]: Well, you never know... I might make the deadline waaaaaay off. I haven't even nearly decided on a date yet. :P

2008-12-30 [Yuriona]: LOL! I'll see what I can find but they'll all be clothed pics of me. :P

2008-12-30 [Skydancer]: sad, sad... but hey , you take what you can get. :D

Mordigen if you found the fuel to get up here, we could do a photo adventure. Take a few thousand shots of everything in sight including each other. :D

2008-12-30 [Mordigen]: The fuel we can get, gas has become a beautiful price here, it's the time I am lacking, especially with the lil one and no means of babysitting

2008-12-30 [Chimes]: You could take the little one with you? :]

2008-12-30 [Skydancer]: True, I suspect we could make arrangements for some help there and they might very well enjoy taking photos with them too. We have some very baby happy moms and grandmums up here. :)

2008-12-30 [Mordigen]: Yes, but running haver a rambunctious over-excited 2 1/2 y/o through the woods doesn't make for a very productive photo shoot XD, unless the photo shoot called for cute pics of a kid trying to escape his mommy LOL

2008-12-30 [Chimes]: That could actually be really really cute. :)

2008-12-30 [Skydancer]: hmmmmm nude nymph with antlers and trailing vines chasing a tiny faun baby through the forest... :) nah, more likely have arrangments for say Thea to come along and help with the little one or entertain them while we go shoot.

2008-12-30 [moira hawthorne]: give the little one a cheep camera... Eirikr still loves takin photos...

2008-12-30 [Yuriona]: Take the little guy with you! Its good for him even if it means lashing him to the stroller! *shakes fist* My little ones love the dollar store keychain digital cameras. Of course I rarely remember to unload them but they still love them.

2008-12-31 [Jitter]: I think this means I should get cracking before my son starts demanding actual stuff xD

2009-01-01 [Chimes]: Woohoo! :] Thanks for entering [Easterling]!

2009-01-01 [Easterling]: :)

2009-01-01 [Chimes]: *prances around* I'm reckoning I will have to do a public vote to decide this when the deadline rolls around... by the way things are looking I would never be able to decide. :] *ponders about deadlines*
