Seerose Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 @Racerx - you could have left your original SOTW #138 entry intact, and entered the one you replaced it with, separately. That way the first one could have been voted on . Pixey! And I? What is with me? Or should I create a new image? Quote Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

Pixey Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 It's OK @Seerose ....... yours is fine. Racerx first put up one with a candle, a pumpkin and a skull, and then he replaced it with one that couldn't be voted for (as he says it's not made in PDN). I hope he puts up the original one, as this competition allows more than one entry. @Racerx - I hope I'm understanding what you are saying? That the replacement was not all made in PDN. now I'm getting confused.

racerx Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I'm not interested in winning a competition. I replaced the background because it looks cooler. I could've made that background, but don't feel like going through the trouble for a contest I don't want to win anyway. My image is for support only and to give more variations. Even if by chance I won, I would forfeit the win to the 2nd place winner anyway. So don't add it to the voting choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Then it can be voted on, as the rules said it could be any background. As long as the moving images were PDN, then it goes into the competition line-up .

barbieq25 Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Not all of the image has to be made in PDN. So long as you have used PDN to modify the image in some way & the original image is either your own or linked to (copyrights respected), then that should be fine. PDN is an IMAGE EDITOR - that means you edit or modify the image If you can create one entirely from PDN as Pixey & Helen do so well, then all the better. I really liked Racerx first image with the skull, the pumpkin, & the candle. I thought he did those with the Shapes pack? No? Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.

Pixey Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) Yay - so glad you have joined in the SOTW competition @Limon. It would be better for you to post the full image code, instead of the thumb, which would show up better, especially when it's time for the poll .

Limon Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Thank you @Pixey. I did try to post the image code, but got an error message so I posted the thumb as a temporarily solution. Will find out what I did wrong and post the full code today Quote Oh, because I am allergic to things I do not want to do. *Cough* - Michael J.

Pixey Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Back to the future is today. I totally thought it was a movie - I PM'd Seerose for clarification, but had not heard back before I posted the comp !

doughty Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 It is a movie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_to_the_Future_Part_II "October 21, 2015, the date when Marty and Doc arrived in the future, was celebrated as Back to the Future day, celebrating the trilogy's legacy." Today is Back to the Future Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doughty Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Do the entries have to represent something from the movie or can it be anything that hasn't been invented yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishi Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I totally watched the first movie of Back to the Future Last night. I remember the sig of someone from some forum with the crazy Doc Brown in it with the "flux capacitor" thing. But I'd rather want the next SOTW theme to be like the coming of autumn or something instead of a movie because I think its better if the concept is original. If the theme is about a movie, you'll more likely have to borrow elements and pictures of that to incorporate on your art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red ochre Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I haven't watched 'back to the future' (yet), to be honest I thought 'flux capacitor' was something made up, like 'Ruy Lopez opening' or 'instantialized'. Perhaps a broader theme of time travel would be acceptable? Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............

Ego Eram Reputo Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I haven't watched 'back to the future' (yet), to be honest I thought 'flux capacitor' was something made up... IS NOT! Its real ... something made up, like 'Ruy Lopez opening'.... *choke* *cough* *splutter* Wha...?? Oh, deary deary me. Ruy Lopez was in fact a 16th-century Spanish monk. I trotted out this very fact last Tuesday evening at my chess club. 1 Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixey Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) I am so totally "busted". I am not a movie-goer and had no clue what Doughty meant when she said, "Back to the future is today" . Only movies I've ever watched are on planes . As to Doughty's query ....... I think @Red's suggestion is good ............. so, it's up to you the composer. It can be either close to the movie, or anything depicting time travel. The voters will decide which they like on "voting day". Seerose has requested a Theme Change - it is now Autumn/Fall.

doughty Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I didn't see the movie either. I only knew about the Back to the Future Day 'cause it was on the morning news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbieq25 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Well it was a great movie on so many levels. Who doesn't love a DeLorean? I wouldn't say no to one being parked in our garage. I could totally see me driving it to get the groceries in big ole RockVegas We are at the tail end of spring here & our temps are like 35 deg C or 95 deg F. Anyone have any rain they don't want - send it to Australia. We need it desperately. I'd love to have autumn again! Thanks Pixey for all your hard work in running the comp & Seerose for changing the theme & Ishi for the suggestion. You guys rock Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.

Cc4FuzzyHuggles Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 The "Back to the Future" theme sounded so fun, I love those movies! haha But, a fall theme is great too, and probably a little more flexible.

Seerose Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 SOTW#140 - Submissions - Steam Punk. Is that a science fiction steam-powered machinery? Quote Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Yes, it can be those things @Seerose, but not necessarily steam powered. Here is another link with all sorts of ideas. You could make faces with clocks, and things like that. Cogs and Wheels/Gears as well ...... and a man named @Redochre just happens to have a Plugin which makes those .

Cc4FuzzyHuggles Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) You can read about Steampunk on Wikipedia. Here are some pulled out highlights: It is inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery. Steampunk works are often set in an alternative history of the 19th century's British Victorian era or American "Wild West" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steampunk Steampunk art is famous for lots of "gear" looking machines, contraptions, and technology. So basically, steampunk art can be a Victorian era or a Wild West era with gear contraptions and/or steam machines.

Ishi Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I did not know what steam punk was until I did a Google search of it. But the moment I found out, I immediately though of the Gears plugin and apparently, Pixey has got that in mind as well.

So basically, steampunk art can be a Victorian era or a Wild West era with gear contraptions and/or steam machines. That's a very good summary there Huggles. Its a branch of science fiction that basically exaggerates the technology on the Victorian and Wild West eras but with a lot of style, elegance and class than the futuristic techno stuff that dominates much of the mainstream sci-fi world. I personally think its really really challenging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerx Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Pixey, I think this is a very cool theme. Very mechanical, just the way I like it. I modified my original submission and will probably add things as I think of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
