Kick Your Own @ss - ENTRIES

`MonicaWeasley:iconMonicaWeasley: reports, July 1
The only one I must compete with is...myself. And I'll always be the winner. :)

This contest wants on one hand to show that every single artist can improve (also motivate viewers to also keep practicing and never quit their art!) and that to improve is much more important to compare one's art with what it was in a previous moment, than compare it with other's art. :nod:

See You At the Fair!

^Kitten-of-Woe:iconKitten-of-Woe: reports, July 1
What are two traditional pastimes that make for some of the best summer memories? How about backyard grilling or making some other summertime recipe and going to the county fair? If you love to grill on the patio or the veranda or if you can make a pie, an icy beverage, or a frozen dessert that could take a blue ribbon, now you can combine the two and enter a Culinary Arts contest at the same time!

The Artisan Crafts gallery announces that during the month of July you can celebrate National Culinary Arts Month by taking a photo of a grilled main dish, a pie, an icy summer-time beverage, or a frozen dessert and you could possibly win both a ribbon and a prize! You also have the option of submitting a Culinary film tutorial.

Square Photo Contest Update: Week 1

*nawras:iconnawras: reports, May 9, 2008
When I started this contest last week I did not expect such overwhelming input! KEEP IT COMING!

I saw that I was not very clear on the rules, what is legible or not, etc, so now I will clarify things. Sorry for not having done so before.


WHAT IS A SQUARE PHOTO?

A square photo is a photo which has the same width and height, eg, 600 x 600, 525 x 525, 861 x 861. It is NOT a landscape photo (with width greater than height, eg 800 x 600) and it is NOT a portrait photo (width less than height, eg 600 x 800).

Here is an example of a square photo:


Here is an example of a portrait photo:


Here is an examlple of a landscape photo:



WHAT SHOULD THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE PHOTO BE?

This is up to you and your creativity!


HOW MANY PHOTOS CAN I SUBMIT?

You can submit ONE photo of yours AND/OR submit a MAXIMUM of TWO photos from other people.


HOW DO I SUBMIT?

You can submit in ONE OF TWO WAYS:

EITHER you go to the Thumbshare Thread and post there

OR you send me a NOTE with "square photo" as the subject.


WHAT WILL THE JUDGEMENT BE BASED ON?

It will be based on the concept and idea behind the photo, the composition, emotions it portrays, and everything in between. Remember, square photos have a tricky composition! So it is essential!


I SUBMITTED AN ALMOST-SQUARE PHOTO... WHAT HAPPENS?

I gave an exception to a non-perfect-square photo so it is only fair I also accept other such photos. However, the dimensions should at least make it LOOK square.

HOWEVER please note that for judging, PREFERENCE IS GIVEN TO PERFECT-SQUARE PHOTOS so please from now on try to submit only perfect-squares. If it is a couple of pixels off, like 700 x 705, I will still consider it perfect square. If it like 600 x 650 then it will fall into the not-so-square category and it will be on second preference.


WHEN WILL COMPETITION END? WHEN WILL WINNERS BE ANNOUNCED? HOW WILL I BE NOTIFIED?

The competition ends JUNE 15. The winners will be announced on JULY 1. I will be updating the weekly submissions on my journal as well as a news article. The final winners will also be posted on my journal and a news article.


WHAT ARE THE PRIZES?

Grand Prize: 1 year sub + feature
1st and 2nd runner ups: 6 month and 3 month sub respectively.


If you have more questions please feel free to ask. This is the first time I run such a competition so any feedback is welcome :)

Also please notify me if I have put a not-so-square photo in the square category and vice versa... I am human too!

Enjoy :)

It's all the same contest but I split it into weeks so I can easily manage it. In the end it is one submission per deviant
