The rules state "no animation." Does that include text? I'm curious as to what y'all define as "animation," and am afraid that a lot of my ideas would fall under that definition.
I thought about asking under the first post, but wasn't sure that was the right place to stick something, and you and I already have established dialogue.
Blergh. I'm being unusually socially anxious tonight. :/
No problem. We're just starting out and hoping for lots of interest. I'm sure there will be bumps in the road and things we'll have to clarify or change to meet the needs of the community. The important thing is for this to be a fun place for people to show off their talent and, hopefully, keep the Highlander community alive and thriving.
You could email her privately, but there may be others wondering the same thing and this way everyone will know the answer.
I checked the settings. She has it set "closed to membership", but open for anyone to post even if they haven't joined. I guess she wants people to watch and have posting access. Not sure the logic, but she has the experience on these types of communities. I emailed her and asked about it since I'm kind of curious myself.
Well, I must be the biggest dummy. I don't understand the challenge. Is there supposed to be some kind of prompt? Am I missing something?? You just take one of the pics provided and come up with some clever text?
Mischief is the artist. I asked her to clarify for you. I think it will be fun, although I have no talent myself. I'll just save myself for the voting.
You can pick up to five of the screencaps and make any kind of icons you want as long as they don't have animation. Upload the icons to a storage service, tinypic, photobucket, etc. and then post them to the challenge post, both the icon and its URL. When the due date is over, I'll post all of the entries without the artists' names attached and folks will vote on the top three. The winner will get a banner and bragging rights. How does that sound? It gives icon makers a chance to practice their skills in a friendly environment.
If you have any other questions, you can post them to the challenge post over at the comm. :)
I really appreciate it. Once we get the first round of icons and start voting, it will really be off the ground and running then. I like Mischief's idea of starting with Finale. It has everyone (except Richie) and it's a good place to start. She has lots of ideas for future contests.
