The Newborn Contest!!! (Now with more prizes!)

**Surzsha** · July 1st, 2009, 11:20 AM

Great, another big contest to ruin my self esteem.
Not only that, but I got notice of it a month late.

Oh well, no use in whining. I'll just see what I can do (if I even bother to do it).

**CatsyConcepts** · July 1st, 2009, 11:35 AM

I'm excited and I want to give it a try!

**ReelNuts** · July 1st, 2009, 11:56 AM

So here goes. I've never entered one of these and am terrified. I don't know if I can meet the deadline, but will try.

So many ideas in my head, so little time!!!

Hi,
someone already asked this question but no answer yet.

is it only a 2d contest or is 3d, especially zbrush stuff, allowed?

**Dagda** · July 1st, 2009, 03:29 PM

Good luck to everyone!

**zaimless** · July 1st, 2009, 04:39 PM

**FightingSeraph** · July 1st, 2009, 07:26 PM

I'm not interested.

**.lLenn** · July 1st, 2009, 07:48 PM

Do we need to make a thread for our entree(s) or is that optional?

**hala** · July 1st, 2009, 10:12 PM

.ILenn, I believe as long as u send your entry the email address listed, there is no need to make a thread.

**Sirsketchalot** · July 1st, 2009, 10:33 PM

Let's just say it's on...Oh it's on like Donkey Kong!

**weigy** · July 1st, 2009, 10:50 PM

I'm participating! Hey for those whose posts I've randomly ranked, I apologize, it's a mistake, I thought I was hitting the button for "the next page" but instead when the page finished loading, the page has shifted somewhere else and it was the vote button.

But as for the contest; I'll be giving it my best in what time I'm given! (From now to August 31st, I'm assuming). Will check back in case there's any changes to the deadline! Thank you for the information!

**Gail_Blitzy** · July 2nd, 2009, 04:25 AM

Exactly, so make sure to finnish your work a little earlier. We dont want anyone to miss it on the last date, becaue his emailprovider decides to suck.

By the way, when do we get to know who has won ?

**Baron Impossible** · July 2nd, 2009, 07:19 AM

Email! Thanks for reminding me, I totally forgot you have to email it off

**cyph13** · July 2nd, 2009, 02:33 PM

What are the rules for the image? Like it has to be only 1000 pixels wide? the length is up to us? How about stuff like gore? like even minimal gore? is that allowed?

**ferretula** · July 2nd, 2009, 04:39 PM

my entry is ike 6000 pixels wide after i scanned it in, how can i bring it down to 1000 pixels?

**ferretula** · July 2nd, 2009, 04:50 PM

i tried to copy the pic, open it it paint, but by the time it gets to 1100 pixels, the quality looks like crap. can ANYONE help? please.

**ferretula** · July 2nd, 2009, 04:50 PM

i tried to copy the pic, open it in paint, but by the time it gets to 1100 pixels, the quality looks like crap. can ANYONE help? please.

**Kitten Poker** · July 2nd, 2009, 06:58 PM

Don't know much about paint, but if you have photoshop, or if you know anyone who does, open the big pic in there , then scale it with the "image size" option in the "Image" menu. That should be a clean scale ^_^, remember to save as something different, so you still have the big version if they want it later ^_^
