As stated below, you can nominate by either sending Winterhawk a PM or sending "me" (The_Dodge_and_Burn_Awards) your nominations. (We have already received several...) you are allowed to nominate as many as you want, within reason.

Sorry, but we have to save some stuff for the Morphies, which will happen at the beginning of the New Year.

This came under much debate, and the decision was that as long as the artist is a member of the site, he may submit his work as a nomination.

Know the story about the crab-washing monkeys?
(Sometimes things happen spontaneously.) If Dark Knight will post his image, the Poll Results Page will also feature all 8.
Kewl, hunh?

I've just added an August challenge pic -- Wonder Woman Cover.

So pics had to have been posted before 31 July, could it not be the 8th of August instead (just before this was announced)?

Is there also a 'posted after' date? Some of the categories are similar to the Morphies, if there is no date are the pics that were nominated/won Morpies eligible for these awards?

Max - Billy Crystal asked me to host the awards show, he couldn't make it.

All 8 images presented so far are still on the front page, look for 'C2F' in the subject line.
Perhaps after a week or so one of the moderators could push them together back to the top of the list?

Max - I'm the second most popular search on the Web

Is there a page that we can see all of the images together. It isn't all that fair to all that participated to have all of there images separated by other artwork. If i missed it, I apologize for not reading all the posts. But I think you would get a lot more votes if you made this possible (to those who care to vote) for us to see all the pictures together on one page. It is porbably too difficult, but it might be a good idea. Or link the images off of the poll. Who knows, but I know that I am having a problem finding all of the images.

wondering out loud...

so how do we nominate? and how many are we allowed to nominate?

It was a good idea to have 2 polls, that way anyone who finishes late can't be accused of getting extra time over the others.

Looks like my teammate has gone completely quiet on me so my manip may never be 'finished'. I will find some time later in the week to do it myself or post 'half' the image.

I think everyone agrees - the results are awesome!

Max - doing my bit to bring all the freaks together

good idea.
Question, excactly which area would Android need to work on i mean i know his costumes look abit flat but other than that his stuffs fine?( he said with much sarcastic relish)

mmm.... Let me check with myself and I let you know

Hopfully mine and AnonmissX's pic should be posted today at some point. I have finished my part and am waiting to get AnonmissX's work to finish to piece of. If I dont get it today then I'll post my work tomorrow.

On a personal note I would just like to say I had a great time doing this project and working with anonmissX, unfortunatly I think she has found it hard to spair the time for the project but fingers crossed I'll be getting an E-mail soon!

Begin

Max What would you like for the poll.
We have the following that have made it on time for the challenge:
Dark Knight / B
MatrixBlur / kev_incal
Bill T / Mystic Morgan
Brick / dperceful
Winterhawk / JuvenileMike
Troublebot / Poison Ivy

Android has put forward a very nice entry but it is missing his partners half. Should he be included in the poll to win? (I think he should, but it is up to you and Mike)

Also it looks like the Furious Max / MilleniumBum and the Aharmona / Shaylinn combo's are going to be late. Did you want me to add you guys to the poll; in hopes the pictures are up soon.

And what about the Flux / AnonmissX and the Jedi Master Khalel / StatXero pictures has anyone heard from any of these guys.

(I have also posted a slightly edited version of this message at c2f)

Also, I would like to thank every one involved; this was a great idea and a very fun project. A big Thank you to Max and Mike, who did a dam good job organizing this event.

So far it looks like we have
Kallisti's picture
Rocinate's Picture(maybe, not sure if it is an entry)
Billy's Picture


Please put a response to this thread when you have added your picture to the gallery, so it does not get lost at the end of the month when I put up the poll. You can have Multiple entries If you want.Bluebeetlesuperhero's

Hey???????I am good with that??????? just needed to check??????? Let the covers come. I like it!!!

Rockets in pockets and locking down threads??????? I am confused??????? but hey, what can you expect???????I still don????????t know how to join in on the ???????shout out???????. Not to mention??????? I don????????t like thinking about WH and BB standing next to each other naked talking about images??????? YUK. LOL???????no??????? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH???????. Cough???????cough??????? ouch, laughing that hard hurts.

Quote:Corel photo/paint isn????????t that bad of a program??????? especially if you can make sweet beautiful art with it. Not to mention that I like the idea of having a little help with coming up with ideas for new images. So, this is going to be a ???????homework??????? assignment that targets a member????????s weak spot. Do you think that people want to work on an image that is based on their weak spots. Also, I have been asked to do a tutorial on a few things??????? do we need members to post tutorials that will help in this ???????quest???????? Tutorials are great??????? but??????? it takes time out of our images. I tried and tried to make a tutorial on metal/chrome but couldn????????t come up with the words to explain how I did it. It is tough work. BUT??????? on top of that, I am game for this little endeavor! It sounds like a lot of fun???????

No no, you misunderstood. I meant "next to you" as in "next to you on the evolutionary scale", when I said I'd be willing to take two steps down the Evolutionary ladder so as to be "next to" your simian mentality.
Didn't I make that clear?

BB

I'm in. I've been looking for a new project all week and finding nothing that inspires me. Gimme something to do! However, please bear in mind that I'm only using Corel photo/paint 7, nothing near as fancy as photoshop.

Actually, I think the biggest area you need improvement in is wrinkles. Really, you hardly ever add them in your stuff.
