I didn't make the Rules @Djisves I'm just the one (who gets jumped on) who tries to keep the rules the same for everyone. This has been the rule since 2016. 2. Your entry must be 100% made using Paint.net. Don't use another image editor.

toe_head2001 1,834 Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 Yep, @Pixey is correct. The idea is for you to create everything yourself in paint.net. If the language of Rule #2 is ambiguous, we can amend it. As a reminder, the rules were not created by some dictator; they were created in an open discussion. So, in effect, we all wrote the rules, based on the consensus of that discussion. Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to post Share on other sites

barbieq25 1,078 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 @ANONYMISS & @Djisvesif the two of you go back to the very first page you will see the discussion of the rules & how they came to be. If you don't like the rules, don't enter the competition. Nit-picking is not going to help you win the competition but shows mean-spiritedness. Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.

I was genuinely surprised that an eMap I made from a photo (and then I used said eMap to create the shine in my Bishop) broke the rules. I did comply with @Pixey's decision immediately and uploaded a new image; I even said I was going to in the same post I expressed my surprise. I'm not nitpicking and I find the reaction to my post a bit over the top. 9 hours ago, toe_head2001 said: The idea is for you to create everything yourself in paint.net.

I understand this competition is to showcase what can be done using PDN alone. I just wish that everybody follows the rules. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not nitpicking and I find the reaction to my post a bit over the top. I asked that very question about eMaps on April 26, 2018. I never got a direct answer, but in the end concluded they were forbidden. I can see both sides of the argument: on the one hand, the use of photos is forbidden; on the other hand, they're separate from the object being created. Creating decent environment maps is quite difficult (at least for me), which is why I used variations of the same one in a bunch of entries. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
