    Alright, this works out well for me. I get to give it a try, but if it is too bad, it doesn't matter because it would not be good enough anyway going up against Soss. :) Wait, is this official? Shouldn't Soss make this stuff?

    Have fun with it 09, we're all friends here.

    I am a good critic, but my stuff would be shit.

    Like, almost what would be on a tee shirt? You're gonna see a lot of yankees, I hope my team choice doesn't affect voting!

    And.. you made the threads without having submissions yet. Are we posting them ourselves? Usually there is anonymity.

    I was under the impression we were lumping all 8 together and letting posters vote half at a time.

    I'll post them for anonymity. No problem for me.

    I see what you are saying about having the top 4 submissions then the top 2, then the best voted on...but ultimately the best submissions will win anyway in a head-to-head match up.

    So in the threads I've made, the poll will work out like this

    "Which submission is better?"
    A
    B

    A and B will be randomly assigned to each submission and that way MantanaSoss doesn't win with Street Cred alone, lol.


    Contestants can PM me for my personal e-mail address where they can send their submissions

    The threads for each round will be used to discuss the flaws (if there are any) and highlights of the contestants' work.

    I just got home from work and my computer is totally fucked. I get this blue screen upon startup saying that Windows had to be shut down or some bullshit.. bottom line is it's fried. Sorry guys , I obviously can't do it now.

    Ignatius just IMd me to say he is gone for the week and won't be able to take part, he is sorry from the bottom of his heart and wishes all remaining competitors luck in their future endeavors.

    Except for Soss.

    I think he'll be okay in a couple days, but I am annoyed with him if he doesn't turn in an entry.

    Mantana, can you delete the head to head threads I made. We'll have to reformat with 2 more drops.

    Just a thought, you might want to set dimensions so that entries are fairly uniform.

    in light of the piece being wall paper or banner, i imagine 800x600 pix or smaller would be fine.

    It doesn't matter because, when I upload them into imageshack, I resize for forums anyway.

    that could effect the quality of the image greatly. i'm not down for converting my file to something else because i know from experience it will adversely effect quality. i can host everyone's files in whatever format or size they create it as on my web space if need be.
