Contest Moderators:

Please read the [#RULES] and the [#THEME] before entering!


Rules:

1. NO STOLEN ART!
Images must be created by Elftowners and posted here by the original artist. Which means, no matter how much you might like a particular image on somebody's house, you are not allowed to add it here. This includes random images from the net too. MAKE YOUR OWN DARN IMAGES, DON'T STEAL THEM AND TRY TO CLAIM THEM AS YOUR OWN! That makes us angry, very angry indeed.


2. QUALITY ISSUES:
Please put forth your best effort and the best quality, i.e.
- no drawings on lined notebook paper
- no pictures or bad scans of your drawings
- drawings must be new. That means you may not submit a drawing you have made before this contest or one that was submitted to another contest already.
- drawings must be well shaded and/or coloured and have some type of background. Sketches will not be accepted.


3. EACH MEMBER MAY SUBMIT TWO (2) ENTRIES.


4. ALL IMAGES MUST BE UPLOADED TO ELFTOWN!
To upload your image full-size you can use the feature 'Upload a folder of images' that is shown on your house.
This feature allows you to upload one, multiple images or zip-files in their original size to a wikipage.
<URL:upload_zip.html>
Once you click this link you can follow the instructions. See also uploading images.


5. SUBJECT MATTER AND MEDIUM:
Since the winners will be featured on Mainstreet, images that depict graphic violence, pornography or other disturbing actions will not be accepted. Only images that fit the theme will be allowed.

All mediums, except photography (and/or manipulations) and animated GIF's, will be accepted.


6. THEME: ??

Images not following the theme will be removed.

Please Note:
- #1: Asking people to vote for you is against the rules! Although you may advertise the Main Street Poll or public poll page in your mood, diary, or house, it is against Elftown Official Competition rules to directly ask people to vote for you or influence people to vote for you through use of public wikis, diary entries, messages, in your mood, etc..

- #2: If you feel any of the entries break the rules, please speak up before the entries make it to the polls. You can still speak up even after the contest is closed, as long as the polls have not yet gone up yet. Complaints received after the aforementioned will not be considered valid.

/Thank you - The Elftown Council and Assembly.

<img:stuff/2237_wiki_help_9y7vcgcflr5.jpg>

DEADLINE: 2009-12-??


Two (2) winning images will be chosen.

Twenty (20) Christmas images will be picked out by the Council and the Assembly among all those presented and a Public Community Poll (Main Street or Poll Page) will tell the winners.

Participants will receive special Christmas Painters' badges and the winners will receive coloured versions of the same.

2007-11-29 [moira hawthorne]: doesnt get much more religious than that does it

2007-11-29 [Lady of Lore]: :P well I suppose it could....lol.

2007-12-01 [Lothuriel]: Actually, if you want to get technical about it, it is not religious at all. In fact, it is a fantasy contest. So, please don't try to make this something it's not.

2007-12-01 [Lothuriel]: <img:stuff/mood3-gif.gif>

2007-12-07 [Leara]: Sorry, but since its the nativity scene its impossible for it to not be religious in some sense....its where Christmas comes from, its the birth of Jesus. And as much as I'd like to attempt something for it, I can't think of how to make it fantasy without feeling like I'm being blasphemous. >.> Thats just me though.

2007-12-07 [SilverFire]: I can think of many ways.

2008-12-02 [dayahnaira]: um has the 2008 one started yet?

2008-12-02 [Jitter]: Yes. The theme is Christmas :)

2008-12-02 [Mitsuki The Wolf Girl]: Woot!

2008-12-03 [dayahnaira]: Just Christmas..:( giggles...Didn't know usualy add something to the theme of Christmass..oh well I already got something started....just wondered if it was on yet didn't see it promoted on main street..and Hi Jitter Loves you...working on a chirstmas prezzy fer you Hugs

2008-12-12 [jaraden]: i think it a worthwhile contest for anyone to enter and had i more time on my hands i too would add a submission. as it is i'll keep an eager eye out and purhaps next year i'll enter. looking forward to the whatever art the extreemly talented folk here in elftown come up with, should be amazing!!!

2008-12-12 [dayahnaira]: gah almost finished with mind just got to figure out the background...heheh..I hate doing backgrounds..:P

2008-12-16 [jaraden]: i hear you there, i almost never bother with backgrounds, usually after i'm done with the focal point the background seems to be too much effort...
so i feel you pain kid!
can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!!!

2008-12-23 [xXPandaXx]: so is there a voting for the poems or is it done by crew?

2008-12-24 [Mitsuki The Wolf Girl]: Done by the crew ^^
