Since a lot of people don't go to the PPP, I thought I would issue an invite here:  http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php?topic=61337.msg3907124#new


We used to have avatar contests frequently. I figured at this time of uncertainty, maybe having a little bit of fun would help everyone.

Can I use my avatar?

Usually you would change your picture so that it matched the theme of the contest. For example when it was a Christmas competition people used images of penguins in Santa hats, images of the Grinch and so on.

So if the theme was cool dudes then you could use your photo

Unfortunately, so far, we haven't had too much interest so it looks like it is a no-go.  :\'( :\'( :\'(  If people still want to do it just say so and we can do it. I think we would need at least 5 people-the more the better. It just isn't the same if only 2 people want to do it.

That is the sorry feeling I have these days, no one is true up for competition, and it looks like I will most likely be stuck at home for Easter now, so please (if by chance the contest goes on) include me in.

I am clueless when it comes to art, drawing or Photoshop so I avoid competitions like this :P

I’m fairly sure I only made one in photoshop the others were just found using Google images or something

You only have to pick a photo from Google. Carlos has started us off.

When does the contest begin and when can we change our avatars?

Looks like it may be advantageous for me to switch my "Don't show users' avatars" to show.

I'll have to turn that back on too.  Let's be thankful it isn't a signature contest. ;D

Exactly as I was thinking!

Ok, it looks like we have at least 5. YAY!!!! So, rather than going back and forth, here is the "OFFICIAL" contest thread: http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php?topic=61354.0

As I stated over there, I will give everyone until Wednesday to get their avatars in (post it over there) and then we will have the voting on Friday & Saturday and the winner will be announced on Easter.

Hopefully more people will join in. Tell your friends.  ;D



Cat

There is still time to get in. Please come and join. The more there are, the better. And if you win, you will get a little egg under your avatar. Tomorrow will be the last day to join. On Thursday we will start the voting.  http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php?topic=61354.0

Yes I had to turn off signatures because sometimes peoples signatures would spill onto the next post and I couldn't read it.

So I joined.

Today is the last day to join. Please come and join it. It is painless.


Cat

Come and vote for your favorite 2 avatars. And you can still vote even if you didn't submit an avatar. So, come and root on your fellow board members.


Cat

Don't forget to vote if you haven't already. You have until tomorrow.
