SotW and WPotM: Discussion Thread: OLDER THAN BEEJAY

How? How does the lack of votes for a particular entry mean that everybody who voted for everybody else is doing it on the basis of popularity? Please remember to show your working when handing in your answer.

Maybe, just possibly, this is going to sound crazy but stick with me here, people vote for the signatures they personally find to be the most pleasing to them and maybe personal taste changes form person-to-person? I know I certainly had a hard time whittling it down to the three ones that I personally liked best. Viletta's, Raex's and Rumple's were all almost chosen, but in the end, I could only choose three.

And by the way, Rumple has seven votes at the moment, which by my quick estimate, is either leading or close-to-leading. Anyway, it's up there.

Sorry Mr. Spork. I was a fool to rub those out!

I am so voting for Rumplestiltskin

you don't need to announce it.



anyway, I've no idea what to make, so I probably won't be competing this week.

You guys can thank me for this one. I love laying out tons of ideas for forums...and getting zero credit for it! All this is because of me. You're welcome.

bah humbug

Go away Sizzlin', it was my genius that brought SotW to ZU!

That does remind me, are we going to start the next SotW yet? It's already Tuesday, but I don't want to seems pushy, 'just wanted to know.

Slow graphics mods are slooooooow

This is the second week in a row that it's late



Next theme should totally be "night"

*facepalm*

It's always a day late. D:

Sorry, guys. I'll get to that now!

EDIT: Oh wow. Everyone who has either placed first, second or third, are all tied with someone. It's kind of awesome. xP

So many cute and funny entries this week ^^ I must congrats to all of you :3

It's beejay that's slow, not me! I'm on holiday.

You have my permission to poke her gently.

Why Hello there girl's and boys.

I might have to give this Sig making malarkey a shot.

As for Wallpapers, "Something not cool" sounds fantastic Abstract is a little too broad.

I wouldn't mind categories that encourage people to make something a little more personal, a little less "Stock Art Under a Filter", you know? Like, to give an example, "Family Pets", where people might go and take photos of their own pets.

But I haven't been poking around this board very long so maybe the small selection of work I have seen is representivie.

That sounds pretty neat actually, Sam. Like, if we had a theme called 'Who are you?' or something and the contestants would make something that describes who they are.

SotW Suggestion: Forest/Woodlands

SoTW Suggestion: Halo

I second that.

In that general direction, I would love to see a contest based on something sci-fi, like space or the future.

can we not have themes related to gaming? In my opinion, gaming themes require the least creativity.


wallpaper: music

If it were Halo, i would definantley not enter. (or vote)

You know, if any one of you were thinking of a certain kind of contest, and you wanted it to happen, you could always ask a GD mod to have it approved. I mean, if it's a big competition. If it's just a graphic face off between you and a friend, I don't think it needs to be approved.

I agree on both of those.

Wow, you've been gone for forever. Welcome back to ZU! Are you gonna stick around and play photoshop with us?

I may. Been busy as all hell, but we'll see.
