Graphics Design signature Challenge of Fours.

Hosted and judged by:







Mediator:



Additional pot donators since first challenge:
2000 FG
Anonymous 1000 FG

TOTAL AS OF NOW: 10000 FG
_________________________

All entry fees will be sent to our mediator for this challenge and is FINAL.

_________________________


Each entry will be a 200 FG fee, leaving a chance of winning at least 50 fg if you make the 2nd place. The deadline for each competition will be the stated starting dates written below; 1st/11 - 8th/11 - 15th/11 and 22nd/11.



This challenge will be divided in four separate competitions, and each competition has a winner and a 2nd price.

Each challenge will take place one week at the time starting November 1st with a 7 days deadline (First entry will be deadline Sunday 7th/11 - 23:59 Berlin GMT) and then they continue 8th-14th, 15th-21st, 22nd-28th.

There will be different rules for each one, so please read carefully before you start making your piece of art for the entry. Time is money.

NOTE: You are not obliged to enter all four of the competitions, and the entry pot will be separate for each challenge, so if we have fewer entries on one challenge than the other, the final pot for that challenge will be smaller than the other. However, if you wish to enter all four, you may of course do so.

GENERAL RULES:

* Each entry must abide to the site rules and also the general signature rules:

* Signature: Entire size of signature should not exceed 400 pixels wide by 150 pixels high, and 70 KB in size. No offensive or crude material images.

* No Judges may enter the competition.

* All signature entries must show before and after results

* No signature entry can be taken from google. (Assets are okay, but not complete compositions).

* No signature entry may be a GIF taken from the internet simply looped and cut.

* No signature entry may be a video taken down from YouTube or such, simply looped and cut.

* No entry may be copied from a style off the internet such as tutorials, all work must be original art works.

* No entry may be ripped or directly copied from either google or d2jsp.

* All entry fees are FINAL and there will be no refunds to your fee being payed.

* Once you posted your artwork, edits are not allowed. Edits will disqualify you from the current challenge.

* Every artwork must be uploaded to https://imgur.com or it will not be qualified.

The prize for the competition will be divided by the entry fee pot, by 75% to the winner and 25% to the 2nd place, plus the additional FGs I provide which is a total of 4000 FG (750 FG to each #1 winner and 250 FG to #2)

Challenge #2: Animated signature

This entry will be judged by
- Overall quality/pixelation
- Amount of elements animated
- Coherence with the signature artwork
- Loop efficiency


Rules:
- All signature entries must include atleast TWO of the samples provided.
- All signature entries must have at least TWO elements animated.


NOTE: YOU MAY USE YOUR OWN ASSETS, BUT TWO OF THE PROVIDED ASSETS MUST BE USED AND SEEN IN THE SIGNATURE.

A good example would be animating an element such as smoke, fire or water, and also having a light glow effect pulsating.
Another example would be to animate only one element and have a text flashing in the foreground. However text is not what we would like to see the most.

Here’s an example:





Remember that your piece must be within the general signature rules for your piece to apply as an entry.

Prize:

#1 Winner: 75% of Donated pot 1/4 PLUS 75% of entry fee pot for the current challenge.
#2 Winner: 25% of Donated pot 1/4 PLUS 25% of entry fee pot for the current challenge.

I have a completed piece I'm sitting on for a couple of days to see if any changes/additions come to me. Don't want anything left out in hindsight this time around. :lol:

Yeah, my mistake. I have the psd saved in my work pc. I’m currently at home now though. If allowed I’ll upload the correct version.

Ps: Let me know if it not allowed due to the rules.
