*Fractal Friday: CONTEST! & Other News

`Sophquest:iconSophquest: reports, October 17, 2008
:community: *Hello Fractal Family... and All DA Artists

:wave: Today I bring you some exciting Fractal Gallery News. :D
We'll be having a new Fractal Contest!... I have news on Miscats!
And we will have some fractal features for all of you, as well.




:spotlight-left: "2009 Fractal Calendar Contest!" :spotlight-right:

It's time to announce a :new: site-wide Fractal Contest! :clap:
Have you been working on creating a new calender for 2009?
Well, you should! ~ Starting tomorrow, Saturday October 18th,
I will accept entries for a new 2009 fractal calendar contest. :w00t:

:bulletblue:NOTE: (If you have already submitted fractal calendars for 2009,
you will be able to enter them in this contest! Just note me with the
thumb (or) link to your calendar, and I'll move it for you into dA's
newly added category for the contest!) :nod:

Here's what you need to know! :excited:




Contest Name: "2009 Fractal Calendar Contest"

Start Date: October 18th

End Date: November 15th

Contest Description: Design a Fractal Calendar for 2009



Rules:


:bulletblue: All images MUST be Fractals ONLY (not Mixed Media).

:bulletblue: You need 14 separate images for your calendar:

(12 Monthly Fractals, and Front and Back Cover Designs)

:bulletblue: All fractals must have been created in Fractal Generating Programs,

such as: Apophysis, UltraFractal, Fractal Explorer, Incendia, Tierazon etc.

:bulletblue: Your calendar must include at least a few recently submitted
images from your gallery.

:bulletblue: Submit your calendars to: Contests & Projects->
Contests-> 2008-> 2009 Fractal Calendar Contest

:bulletblue: Minimal Post-work allowed.

:bulletblue: One ENTRY per person.

:bulletblue: Note me with your Calendar Entry and...
which skill level you wish to represent.
(Experienced, Moderate, or Newbie)



Judges:


To be announced. I will be asking AR and a few fractal gurus.




Skill Levels & Prizes:


There will be 3 separate skill levels: Experienced, Moderate, Newbie

And 3 Winners for each skill group: 1st, 2nd and 3rd place! :w00t:

(That is 9 Winners, in all ~ So, you have no reason not to enter!)



All three 1st Place Winners will receive: 1 yr. Sub, Print Account and $40.00 deviantDollars
All three 2nd Place Winners will receive: 6 mos. Sub, Print Account and $30.00 deviantDollars
All three 3rd Place Winners will receive: 3 mos. Sub, Print Account and $20.00 deviantDollars

:dance: Nice prizes, huh? :boogie:




So, fractal on!... and then note me with your calender entries!

:bulletblue: Here's a link to instructions on how to submit a calendar. [link]
(*These are the guideline size requirements for printing, but your
completed calendar doesn't have to be available in print to enter!)


If you don't have a print account yet...


You can simply create a Front or Back Calendar Cover only!
It must show at least, a portion of all the images from your
calendar (as long as each month's piece can be viewed in your
gallery.) But, in order to be able to sell your calendar, you'd
need to create a print account (whether from a prize print account
that you win or one you establish on your own, after the contest).

So, your contest entry just has to have a calender cover design.
That way anyone without a current print account can still enter also! :thumbsup:
Just be sure to put links to all of your images in the "artist's comments"
section of your cover design entry. :nod:


:star: SEE THE ENTRIES HERE!






*News on Miscats in the Fractal Gallery


:D Well, dA is finally done gathering their data on miscats, so...
I can now get back into our gallery and clean it up! :w00t: Woohoo!
I want to thank you all for your patience, while this data was being
compiled. I know it's been frustrating for all of you, but all the work
that has been done by dA, is vitally important to the improvement of
our entire site. You can help by reporting any miscats that you may
find also. *And until I hear news on a new possible category under
the Fractal Umbrella (that I requested), please continue to submit
your Mixed Media artworks to the appropriate gallery. Thank you.




*Got Fractal News for the new AR Update?


Next week I will be submitting my AR Fractal Update, so if you have
any Fractal Club News, Program Updates, Personal Fractal Contests,
Fractal Articles and/or any other items of interest for the Fractal
Gallery, please NOTE me with the info, so I can include it. Help me
to help you! ~ Thank you all. :community:
