Greetings, and welcome to Elftown's official Valentine Art Competition!

Contest Moderators: -
council

Please read the [#RULES] and the [#THEME] before entering!

Rules:

1. No stolen art. Images must be created by Elftowners and posted here by the original artist.

2. Tracings and paint-overs are not accepted. Referencing is fine, but if a large part of the image is referenced, please post the reference picture used along with your submission.

3. Old art allowed. Old pieces of art are allowed in this contest, provided they have not already been submitted to another official Elftown Contest. If your art has been submitted to an unofficial contest, then you are still free to enter it here.

4. Each member may submit two (2) entries.

5. All images must be uploaded to Elftown. To upload your image full-size you can use the feature 'Upload a folder of images' that is shown on your house.
This feature allows you to upload one, multiple images or zip-files in their original size to a wiki page.
<URL:upload_zip.html>
Once you click this link you can follow the instructions. See also uploading images.

6. Subject matter: Images that depict graphic violence, pornography or other disturbing actions will not be accepted. Only images that fit the [#theme] will be allowed.

7. Medium: All media except photography, photomanipulations and animated GIFs, will be accepted. This means you cannot use a photograph or a photomanipulation even for the background.

8. Vote-mongering: Asking people to vote for you is not allowed. You may ask people to vote in the poll in general, but not specifically for you.

9. Queries: If you wish to discuss something about how the contest is run, or the rules, then please use the official contest forum: <forum:Elftown contests>! If you wish to bring up a query about whether a certain entry fits the theme, please speak up before the entries make it to the polls. You can still speak up even after the contest is closed, as long as the polls have not yet gone up yet. Complaints received after the aforementioned will not be considered valid. However, if you wish to query whether an entry is stolen art or breaks any other rules, you may still bring this up after the poll has been made.

2007-01-28 [The 5 Elements]: can someone please tell me if my pic in the valentine comp is of good quality to be entered??? i had to take a photo of it cos of no scanner....if someone could, thank you.

2007-01-28 [moira hawthorne]: damn.... I got an image for this...

2007-01-29 [Dr.Mandarian]: - lol - Great theme! Zombie, Gnome, Octopus - and that along with flowers and chocolate AND IN PINK, this brings already yet some hilarious pictures to my mind. Aaah, valentine as a day of FESTIVITY actually did never play any role inmy life, before. But this theme comes my way. I will try to hurry and sit down soon to make an entry. * giggles in waves of after-shock *
( Only imagine a pink gnome or zombie who gives a valentine's day gift to some OCTOPUS! )

2007-01-29 [Linderel]: The pink isn't really necessary. :P Quoth me: " 'Make It Pink!' is merely my totally-lacking-in-imagination summary for it." (I would have quoted [iippo] quoting me, but that might have been a tad redundant. Not to mention silly.)

2007-02-06 [donezo]: i made a pic in the contest time thats good but i dont want to enter...have a look

<img:http://elftown.lysator.liu.se/img/drawing/117943_1170775839.jpg>

2007-02-06 [Ocean Soul]: You couldn't enter with this picture anyway, as it doesn't follow the theme rule.

2007-02-06 [donezo]: i know...but i could change it if i wanted to

2007-02-07 [kay-chan]: You'd have to somehow add two more things from the theme into the picture.

2007-02-07 [Avatar15]: Possibly a Zombie holding them, with a kite flying in the sky.

2007-02-07 [moira hawthorne]: or you could be inventive.. and hide zombies... gnomes... octopi... even kites... chocolate... and stairs... within the flower petals...

2007-02-07 [Avatar15]: That is such a creative idea! *smile*

2007-02-07 [donezo]: well i could...but i like the pic the way it is,so i dont think im entering it in the competition

2007-02-08 [Nadie importante]: i tried downloading gimp but i just didnt know where to click8-)

2007-02-08 [Atayemi]: Oooh it's easy. ^^
If you have Windows, then go onto 'Gimp for Windows' on the left handside. It'll take you to a new page.
Then go onto 'Download' on the leftside, just 'Download,' mind. :P Forget the stable and old version things.
Another page will open up. Download the second one down first; 'GTK+ 2 Runtime Environment (version 2.10.6, for Windows 2000 and newer).'
Once you have downloaded it, download the first one. :)
Then you're away basically.
Hope it's helped! :D

2007-02-09 [donezo]: um...what is gimp?

2007-02-09 [Avatar15]: It's explained more on the Valentine Art 07, Page 1 link. :P Its an art program.

2007-02-09 [Atayemi]: And it's free! :P

2007-02-09 [Avatar15]: Yeah. xD Forgot that part.

2007-02-09 [Atayemi]: XD Best part of it.

2007-02-09 [Avatar15]: Just about. x]

2007-02-09 [Atayemi]: :)
