  1. Hi All,

    I have just registered and noticed that I missed the logo competetion. I will participate in next logo competition and will get the prize.

    by the way what was the 1st prize and how many prizes were there?

    1 thing I have noticed nobody posted their work after the competition date was over.

    Hi Aedan, the logo come is on hiatus for a while but will hopefully be back soon. You are welcome to enter any of the ongoing comps. Since you are interested in logos, there is a comp that includes the creation of a logo, the WOTW comp can be found HERE

  2. OK !!!! The next round has been added. I want to keep this thread open for discussion on NEW THEME IDEAS. If you have an idea that would would like to share with everyone and have it considered for inclusion as a SAC Theme, please post it in this thread ! I will choose the themes from the SAC from this discussion thread for most if not all the SAC rounds from this point on. So keep the ideas coming !

  7. OK ! Well, I'm sorry I've not been on here in a few days. Sorry for the delay. It was for lack of a better word, a trying week. I've had better, but now that it's Friday night, it's time to get the show back on the road.

    I think we've had some really great ideas put forth and I greatly appreciate the support. I'll put something together and have it up tonight. Same with the WOTW. I have been sent a theme for it, but just haven't been able to get things put together. So without further adieu........

    Man you guys have made it really hard. So many good ideas ! What am I going to do?

    Hmmmm. I can't believe nobody liked the steam punks in space idea !

  8. I really hope things work out and you get your laptop fixed or get a new one.

    here is a link to the Dell outlet site. I've bought several refurbished or scratch and dent computers there for my office and they are like new.

    http://www.dell.com/us/en/dfb/df.aspx?refid=df&s=dfb&cs=28

    I've not bought any from here, but the price certainly looks good. We are looking into getting some through here for our office. I'll let you know if we do. I used to have a Latitude laptop and loved it.

    Good luck and I hope things work out !

  9. I would like to throw in space ships (or UFO's as per yellowman's suggestion) @ 100% PDN.

    In line with 100% PDN (& for my own info), are weird and wonderful brushes from Photoshop used in Custom Mini Brushes considered as PDN?

    Cheers,

    V

    I use custom brushes all the time. Most of them I make myself, but I have a ton of Photoshop brushes too. It's OK with me if people use brushes.

    I thought we had used space ships before. SAC - Space Craft

  10. @ Rachel1995 Black holes and galaxies have already been used as a theme. Cloud nebulae have been included in many of the entries, but has not in of itself been used as a theme. I like that idea because I have seen many different techniques in creating them in Paint.NET.

    @ Heatstroke I think whether or not stocks would be allowed would depend on the theme. But it would be OK with me if we included stocks if you guys want to. Oooh I really like the eclipse idea. That's a good one.

    @ Frontcannon. I like that idea. That could lend itself to a whole bunch of ideas and interpretations.

    @ Pdnnoob I like the idea of just eclipse, that way it can be a solar or lunar or even planetary eclipse.

    OK, that's 3 good suggestions, cloud nebulae, eclipse, and left behind. I have one of my own that is a little out there so to speak. Steam Punk in space. I'm thinking you could have steam punk spacesuits, spacecraft, lunar or planet rovers, you know stuff like that.

    OK ladies and gents, keep the ideas coming!

    i.e. fractals created in a fractal generator program or textures created in another program of any kind.

    Minimum size is 800 X 600. There is no Maximum Size.

    Special Rule #5. Do not anger the Possum.

    Submission Rules

    All images must be submitted to me in a PM.

    Do no post your image in this thread !

    Do not post your images in your gallery or any other gallery until this comp is over !

    I will post your image in the poll, that is the only time your image should be seen before the voting begins.

    No images previously submitted will be allowed.

    I reserve the right to add to the rules as people do things to annoy me. (See special rule # 5.)

    I could come up with a theme for the next round of the SAC, but I thought it might be more appropriate if I turned to you the members of this forum and asked what you would like to do. So, I'm now taking suggestions in this thread and will choose the next theme from the suggestions given by what seems to be the most popular. Heck, I might even throw in a suggestion or two myself. So, make a suggestion, or two, or more and if you don't have one to make, then comment on the ones that other members make. Sound fair? I hope so !
