You guys are seriously talented! I see someone else also used a brush, great minds you know. Specs: Everything was created 100% Paint.Net. No stocks were used. Edit to say this month marked my 6th year here at Paint.Net!

The other thread was closed and I couldn't reply. I wanted to say congratulations to welshblue, yellowman, and barbieq25! Your entires were inspiring and all had wonderful workmanship while also being beautiful to look at. I really enjoyed looking at all of the entries as if they were in an art gallery and they made me think, admire, and smile. This new comp has an interesting twist. This is a very busy week for me. Hopefully I can enter something. I want to thank you for these fun competitions.

My gosh you are a talented group! Unfortunately this one was quite rushed. I'll try to submit better quality next contest but I wanted to enter something.

Balloons,insects,dragons,life in caves,make your own family crest, distorted perspective,city scape,forests,things made from dots,renewable energy, pick a line from a song and paint it, cloud nebulae, and eclipse all sound very intriguing.

Oh good! I was working on mine and time and RL got in the way. Thanks for the extension.

Sounds good to me Possum Roadkill. Also, real life happens to all of us. Take your time, I seem to be missing a few deadlines lately myself.

Congratulations pdnnoob as well as delpart and histi! Very good entries!

I just noticed this post. Congratulations Welshblue and Possum Roadkill! Both of your entries are very creative and definitely deserve 1st place.

Congratulations to all!

Oh my! Pneumonia is serious. If you are still in contact with his wife please tell her we hope he has a quick recovery. Also don't worry about contest, they'll be here when he returns.

Thank you. I have finished my realistic picture so I'm all set to go for next time. Just couldn't get back in here before company left. Both of the other entries are very well done!

I will try to get something in before the deadline. *EDIT I am almost finished with my entry. If the deadline is today by midnight PST then I should make it. If it is another timezone not sure I can. It has been a busy holiday period.

Thank you! This is awesome! Congratulations to you also Nanettealsop. Your artwork is very beautiful! I will continue to enter contest until there aren't anymore. hehe No seriously, I have been trying to get my Google+, Facebook, and various friends on gaming forums to enter. All of them use Photoshop, Gimp, or Paint Shop Pro, but unfortunately not Paint.Net. It will be fun to keep nudging them. I actually have all of those programs and they are collecting dust on my PC. I use Paint.Net because it gets the job done and is easy to use. The Space Halloween theme art contest was the first art only (non-gaming) contest I'd entered. Previously I had only entered custom content clothes/items for Sims games.

You should not, rules are rules and as a former teacher I definitely believe in adhering to them. Nicely done Welshblue and all of the other talented entrants. *Edited to remove image

You are correct AGJM. I'll withdraw until the next contest. I did not follow the rules. Hahaha and me a former teacher.

I didn't read they would not accept anymore only that there were 3 slots left. Hopefully they will allow it because I'm curious to see yours now. I'm sure it's great.

After posting here I submitted both but didn't know if it was allowed. Now I see that it is. Thank you again for hosting this contest.

I decided to try my hand as well. Image removed by Skystars5 for not following the complete rules.

I just saw this! Very unique idea. Thank you for the contest and thank you for giving us until December 11th to submit. This will be fun and challenging, the best kind! *Edit: I have finished two and trying to decide which one to submit.

I didn't notice this competition until just now. Nice entries. I wish I had known. I'll keep a look out for the next one.

Congratulations Welshblue and to everyone who entered! Yea! Great work! This was a lot of fun and I'll definitely enter future contest! Hopefully some of my friends will enter as well.

I’ve been away from this forum for quite some time. Decided to visit a few days ago and noticed the Halloween contest and out of the blue decided to enter. Unfortunately it seems that I may be too late. I sent the PM with my entry this morning and then saw this thread. What brought me here was on Google+ a few days ago one of the major developers asked about a paint program that didn’t cost an arm and a leg. I posted a link to CNET’s Paint.Net download and another one to the Paint.Net forum. One of the photographers mentioned that Paint.Net didn’t have mask and I told him he should visit the forum and see how much Paint.Net has improved. Anyway, I’ll start posting about this on Google+, Twitter, and Facebook, also several gaming forums I belong to. Thank you for giving of your time so generously. I was never active but I used to visit quite often. Whichever way it goes, I’ll still do my little postings. That's not much, but it is a start. I'm sure several others are like me and just got very busy with other things and forgot to return. :-) Thanks again, Marilyn aka Skystars5
