~*~The Smogon Weekly Spriting Contest~*~
Because random symbols can make anything look better
Officially approved by Firestorm and Doomsday
Welcome one, welcome all to the one and only Smogon WSC! A Spiritng Contest (And Possibly an Art Contest if we can be bothered to make one) for all you aspiring digital artists to compete and improve your abilities.
Last week
The Rules
~ All Smogon Forum Rules Apply, this is a bit obvious.
~ Absolutely no stealing. If you are found stealing, you will be disqualified from the current WSC after one instance of stealing, and completely banned from the WSC after two instances.
~ The theme is there for a reason, all entires that don't follow the theme will be turned down.
~ Do not ask when the next contest/poll will be out.
~ Not a rule, merely a suggestion, try to keep it with the size limit of the sprite (56x56 for the First Generation Style, 64x64 for the Second and Third Generation Styles, and 80x80 for the Fourth Generation Style). Also, try to keep the background transparent.
~Judge Only Rule: Judges may enter, but may not nominate their own entry for victory.
Other nonsense:
The deadline is September 18, 2009. You have seven (7) days to get your entry in. After the deadline, judges will pick finalists, and a poll will be started over the course of 2-3 days to decide the winner.
Prizes:
An inclusion in the Hall of Fame, and after 1, 2, 3, or 4 wins, you will get a medal, ribbon, or trophy.
Theme: Reposes
Theme Suggester: TVBoyCanti
Description: Take any pokemon you want and change its pose. This does not necessarily mean a complete scratch, copy/pasting works too. I've got an example, provided to us by a DA user.
The tail may not be perfect, but you get the idea.
And that's it, be sure to follow the rules, try your best, and have fun!
