2009 Donation Wall Image Contest! **CONTEST ENDED**

[Matt]

Every since the close of last years Fund Raiser we have had our donation wall on the home page of the site. Obviously, this year we will need another one. :rock:

I know we have some great image talent out there so I am willing to give 5 entries to our giveaway to the winning image. This is worth $50.00

I know we have some amazing talent this year so I'm hoping we can come up with something cool.

Criteria:



Create an image that can be populated with the names of all our contributors this year. Basically a blank slate.
The "Wall" image can be of any variety. Brick, Stone, mesh...whatever. As long as the names can be seen
No need to use our logo or banner image on the wall as our Home Page already displays it
Be creative
I'll submit the names to the winner once they are collected so they can be added.


Rules:



Wall image must be PM'd to Matt by 4/1/09

I will upload it to the gallery, it will take care of size

A poll will be set up like our Towerpedia! contests
The winning image will be used


I would really appreciate anyone who has image expertise to give this a try, obviously this is a totally digital venture. :grouphug:

Here is an example of the one Ricky did for us last year, it was really cool.

Me too. :angry: I am artistically barren. :cry: But I can't wait to see what other folks do!

[mia/susannah]

I can't either. The people here are so talented. I know it is going to be a very hard contest.

[Matt]

I have one person so far sending me some amazing images. :clap:

I really hope we get a few more.

[mia/susannah]

I do to. They are definately going to be amazing.

[Letti]

And we should draw/paint that image, am I right?

[Matt]

It should be a digital image Letti, so that the names can be added.

[Hannah]

And we should draw/paint that image, am I right?

As long as you can add names to it afterwards it should be okay. So if you wanted to draw or paint something, make sure you can scan a good copy of it so names can be added to it afterwards.

Also, and I think Matt already mentioned this, the image needs to be able to clearly display the names/usernames of everyone who participated in this fundraiser. I'd love to see something where the names could be integrated into the background itself, but that's beyond my capacity on photoshop. :lol:

[Brice]

So...we weren't supposed to actually build a wall? :unsure:

Oh damn... it means the fan is over. *sigh*

[Hannah]

Well, if you want to build a wall then take a picture of it...

[Brice]

I was just going to mail it...with shipping reversed of course. :grouphug:

[lophophoras]

Matt, Brice has a pic posted over in the Beef thread you could use...

:rofl:

[alinda]

So images like this are protected by copy right laws and could not be used correct? Even if the image was changed in some way? I like that it shows a group of gunslingers, just like us, ready to do battle, and to stand and be true (as in assisting the cause) :Das our membership has shown to be ever ready to do!

With such a picture? Of course I could. :D

[Brice]

[Matt]

Is anyone else planning on emailing me a entry for this contest. As we all know now, getting a few tickets to the giveaway this year is really worth it.

Closing the end of the week, so get them done if you are going to. :rock:

[alinda]

:(Sorry boss, I have forgotten the project completely .
I secretly wish that Letti and others have remembered.:huglove:

I don't have it with me right now (i'm 'studying' :P).
I'll send it again when i get home, i can make a rar and host it in rapidshare if you like.

[Matt]

I'll be able to get it when I get home tonight anyway so don't worry about it.

My work just blocks imageshack and photobucket <_<
