2009-08-10 [Kuramasgirl]: Or....You could just draw what you feel is best for yourself and not care if you win or not? o_o;

2009-08-11 [FamousPanda]: Exactly [Kuramasgirl] That is what everyone should be doing anyway.

2009-08-11 [Ravenclaw]: Quick question: Does it have to follow the eagle/lion combo or can we mix and match like owls and house cats or ravens and black panthers?

DIBS *wags finger at anyone who might consider nicking her idea*

2009-08-11 [Chimes]: I would say that it has to follow the eagle/lion combo because it's not an atypical contest.

2009-08-11 [Ravenclaw]: I didn't notice anything in the rules, that's why I asked.

2009-08-11 [Alexi Ice]: Though...that sounds really cool O.o

2009-08-11 [Chimes]: Cool or not, this contest isn't atypical...

2009-08-11 [Kuramasgirl]: You could always make another contest for atypical gryphons, [Ravenclaw]. :) If there isn't one around here already, of course...

2009-08-12 [jacen81]: So, what you should to is take what is typical and be creative with it (pose, background, etc...)

2009-08-12 [Ravenclaw]: Background? Ha *chuckels* your funny lol, me + background= big honkin' mess. But I might get a wild hair and join. I've not done a gryphon in a while and there's more than one type of eagle to choose from.

2009-08-12 [iippo]: Well the aim of the ECM contests is to find the best typical picture of the creature in question.

2009-08-12 [arthemis_]: We know, we know! :D I will have a hard time with this one! I hope I'll get one in on time :) *haven't started yet, shame on me*

2009-08-13 [Ravendust]: I don't have a scanner, though I cleaned the image as best as I can. If the quality is still bad I'll take any advice I can get on how to improve it... ^^;;

2009-08-13 [Ravenclaw]: Question: If the contests starts on May 6th, 09 then how can it end on January 10th, 09? Is there gonna be time travel involved? Cause if so I think we should put our destination to a vote. I'm quite particular to the old west or the Renaissance, sans the plague.

2009-08-13 [Erubeus]: It started June 5th. It ends October 1st. :9

2009-08-13 [Ravenclaw]: Ok I feel stupid but it still looks wrong.

2009-08-13 [Ravendust]: It says January 1st for the end date, perhaps a mistype? lol:

Contest Began: 05-06-2009.
Contest Ends: 01-10-2009.

2009-08-13 [Ravenclaw]: Lol still looks like May and January to me. Fagedaboudit

2009-08-13 [nehirwen]: In America it's known as military dates I believe? In Europe it's plain normal to write dates like that. Perhaps that's why I don't see how it's logical to see May and January in that. x) (I mean, why would one put the month and year not next to each other..)

2009-08-13 [Aeolynn]: Cause that is what americans do. Why not just say October 1st? I thought it was january, and I don't know if the glass eyes i ordered for my gryphon will be here :[

2009-08-13 [nehirwen]: It's logical cause Americans do it? O.o
I hope those eyes arrive in time! :o
