Competitions

2008-08-22 [Galatea]: I hope its alright if I make an art competition suggestion? [Lady of Lore] is hosting the Fantasy Amazon Warrior Contest, she also hosts many other great wikis and competitions.

2008-09-01 [Ramirez]: What exactly am I doing with this? Or did I already answer. I totally forgot. e_e;;

2008-09-01 [Love and Chaos]: Just putting together our contests silly!

2008-09-01 [Ramirez]: I know that, I meant to [Galatea].

2008-09-01 [Love and Chaos]: oh......oops, now I feel silly!

2008-09-01 [Love and Chaos]: Heres an idea for a photo contest. How about artistic pet photos? you know where they actually have to edit the photo and such without actually manipulating the photo itself.

2008-09-01 [Ramirez]: Like... put anything they want into the picture as it's being taken?

2008-09-01 [Love and Chaos]: Yeah, set the photo up as they want to, then edit it without manipulating it( no photoshop inserts, etc.). Thus creating a professional and artistic photograph.

2008-09-01 [Ramirez]: Okay. It sounds good. Did you want to start that now, or in awhile so that deadlines are little different from the badges one? You can set it up, but just have the contest closed for awhile longer.

2008-09-01 [Love and Chaos]: Yeah, I think it should wait a while. I get it set up shortly and open it late next month. However, I may go ahead and let them know, so they can get ideas on what they want to do.

2008-12-23 [Ramirez]: Just fine, thanks! =D

2009-01-24 [Acceber]: Hmm, here's my suggestion. How about we have a contest where people have to draw other members that are apart of this wiki? Kinda like the Council Portrait Gallery, but just for here instead =)

Or, here's another idea. How about an art/costume contest to design some outfits for the people that help here (Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Counselors etc.) I remember there was an offical competition like this awhile ago, and it was really fun =)

2009-01-25 [Ramirez]: They both sound like great ideas. Would you like to get them together, or would you like me to take care of it?

2009-01-25 [Acceber]: I'm currently making an official contest, so I don't think I have much time. But if you do it, I would love to help out =)

2009-02-16 [*Phoenix*]: I came up with an idea...what about a photo/art/writing contest centered with the theme of "wish" or "belive"? This is a wiki about believing so I thought that would be kinda cool.....

2009-02-16 [Ramirez]: That is a pretty neat idea. Do you have any interest organizing the rules?

2009-02-16 [*Phoenix*]: I can. :) Right now I have to go to bed, but I'll think on it and maybe get something made up soon....

2009-02-16 [Ramirez]: Well, if you're up for it that's great. If not, I can figure something out. =P

2009-02-21 [*Phoenix*]: I can do that......It might be a while with all the school things I have to do......

2009-06-18 [*Phoenix*]: I've got the title for my contest, but no rules or anything written up. it's Show What Your Belief Is!

2009-06-18 [*Phoenix*]: It's done!! YAY! Please approve, [Ramirez], because 2 heads are better than one! And this contest is any media one so I'm not sure what area it would be under....

2009-12-08 [*Phoenix*]: Okay. Show What Your Belief Is! has been changed to Wish Upon a Star because the other one was too hard. :)

2011-09-30 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: We need to start a new Badge Contest and need to start on the daily poems!

2011-09-30 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: [*Phoenix*] is just dedicated. =D

2011-09-30 [Nocturnaliss]: Damn, you saw that comment ? XD I deleted it after I realized their last comment was actually from 2009... it's late here, I'm tired.

2011-09-30 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: Now I just look silly. xD Ah well, it's nothing new. I don't know if I should make a daily artwork 'corner' or have like an on going competition for artwork. o-o That would give us a daily poll, too.

2011-09-30 [Ramirez]: I think if people ever want to submit art they can at any time, even if it's not part of a competition. Maybe even take requests or suggestions if they want.

2011-09-30 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: My brainstorm cloud just got a little poofier. I'm thinking until we get more active people, we do a 'newest submitted' art corner. Have the three main categories (art, photography, writing) and whenever we get a new submission, we do some sort of archive.

2011-09-30 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: And none of those categories are restricted as long we follow rules and don't steal any images. ^-^ If they're a little graphic, we'll put a warning.

2011-09-30 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: Elftown needs a 'Welcome New Members' wiki. And have all 'important' links. O-o

2011-10-02 [Nocturnaliss]: Regarding the requests, I may have a now inactive wiki that might be useful. I'd created it way back when I still believed people believed in Elftown, y'know ? Tell me what you think.

artistic enquiries

2011-10-02 [Ramirez]: I have seen your wiki before, [Nocturnaliss]. That's probably where I subconsciously got the idea XD I really do like that wiki and the way it's set up. If you wouldn't mind us linking to your wiki I would be happy to send requests and art seekers your way.

2011-10-02 [Nocturnaliss]: Wouldn't mind at all, quite the contrary :3

2011-10-02 [Ramirez]: Well excellent XD

2011-10-03 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: He linked it for you. =] Very neat wiki. Surprised I'd never heard of it!

2011-10-03 [Nocturnaliss]: Thanks ^^ and, well, I recall it being featured I think... guess that didn't help it much XD

2011-10-03 [Tynuka-Rhytishy]: Hopefully this may get a few people looking at it and interested. I'm hoping the The Best of Elftown gets us a few new watchers.
