*Iardacil:iconIardacil: reports, December 14
This newsletter was "born" back in March 2007. While things have changed over time, the essence of the newsletter is still the same.
We choose photomanipulations that have made an impression on us from the past week. We do not base our choices on preference or friendships and we have never featured ourselves. We simply pick photomanipulations showing creativity, technique and quality at the same time, and are simply eye-catching. As we are also stock artists, we will only feature the works that give proper credits to stock artists.

THE FRACTAL COMMUNITY THEME CHALLENGE CONTEST

`DWALKER1047:iconDWALKER1047: reports, February 5


This is the official announcement of a contest we are going to have for the Fractal Community. This contest will be open to ALL fractal artists on DA who choose to enter no matter what fractal program is used. This is a perfect opportunity to show everyone what you can do!!!! :nod: The Theme for this contest is Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall.

RULES
1. All images submitted must be 1024 X 768.

2. You may use ANY Fractal Generation Program to make your entry, and explain in the comments which program was used. If you choose to use several programs to make your entry, you must state all programs in your comments. Please also state all the thought process behind why you made your submission the way you did. You should also include a link to this journal.

3. You may only submit 1 entry, so the piece has to be a montage or a culmination of the 4 seasons...use 1 fractal with the 4 elements (theme) or 4 separate fractals as long as the theme for this contest is represented. No changes to the original deviation after submission.

4. Make sure that you are submitting your very best work otherwise it wouldn't be a challenge. The piece you submit needs to be well thought out, and designed.

5. You may use a mask as long as the formula for that mask (the .ufm) is also used on at least one regular layer.

You may only use mapping (that is, a .uxf formula) if it clearly involves fractal mathematics. Furthermore, if you wish to use mapping on a mask layer, you must have also used the same mapping on a regular layer.

You must use the gradients that come with your programs….none that have been downloaded from Gradient Packs.

***JUST FOR FUN***

***I have decided also that you may use marbles in your finished piece, or in the deviation itself, so you may use whatever means necessary to achieve that effect, and it must be explained in the comments section during submission. If you do not know how to make a marble, it is OK not to put one in your piece...this is just an added bit of fun to make the contest more challenging.

Here is an example of the 4 elements in 1 fractal:


6. Contest begins today, January 11, 2009 and will end on May 1, 2009 at 12:00 p.m. CMT. An Announcement will be made when submissions will no longer be accepted.

7. Only minor adjustments will be allowed in your post editing program. If you would like to frame your image please keep the frames small so you cover as little of your image as possible.

8. Judges or anyone associated with this contest will not be allowed to enter.

9. To submit your entry-please note it to :icondwalker1047: with "FC Contest" in the subject line.

I know this sounds tough, it is meant to be a test of your knowledge and skill at making fractals. Be creative, colorful, and have fun in the process!!!! Good luck everyone!

Anyone wishing to donate a prize-please note me and I will add your information.

Sounds great! Can you tell me if the artwork entered has to be a new submission Deb, or can you use images that are already in your gallery? I know it sounds like a simple/silly question but I just want to be sure :blush:.
