The Parody Contest is officially on ! This is the first contest that I've ever sponsered and I'm very excited about it. I thought a contest about parodies would be fun, and would really show everyone's creative side. Besides I just love that sort of thing.

My journal ---> [link]

And if you're a little unsure of what exactly a parody is, here is a link to Wikipedia that hopefully will help ---> [link]

RULES

1.) You may enter written & visual images both. Cartoons, manips, song parodys etc. If you can do a fractal parody, then by all means go for the gold !

2.) Please put in your title just exactly what your entry is a parody of. For the clueless ( me). Something like .... 50 Ways To Clean Your Gutters ( 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover, Paul Simon ). If we don't have a frame of reference it makes it hard to judge. If due to dA space limitations, it won't fit in the title, please put it in the description, preferably somewhere by the top. Thanks !

3.) There will be NO excessive profanity for profanity's sake. We're all intelligent enough to get our point across otherwise I like to think.

4.) There will be NO excessive violence depicted. This contest is about fun & if you have anger issues, take them somewhere else. I don't want to know about it.

5.) You may enter twice. I had originally said only once ( sorry Jenn ) but I've reconsidered.

6.) Please do not parody War and Peace. Or Gone With The Wind. I'm not suggesting you parody a Henny Youngman one-liner, I'm just asking you to use your best judgement.

7.) Please no nudity.

8.) Please either send me a note with the link to your entry or you can put the link in this journal.

Thanks everybody !
