You think you have what it takes to be a Gimp pro? Do ya? Well, regardless, read on.
For those that don't know, "Gimp" is a freeware graphical program that allows you to make pictures & animated gifs. Do you need skills to use Gimp? Nah, not really. It's actually easier to use than MSPaint - which, for the sake of people that are barely comfortable in an art program at all, you can use for this contest as well.
Here's the contest: I am going to give you a theme. I want you to make a picture showing off your interpretation of that theme. It doesn't have to be neat. It doesn't have to be pretty. It doesn't even have to be colored.
Rules
* No text bubbles
* Pictures must be 500x500 in dimensions or smaller.
* You must say which program you used, MSPaint or Gimp.
* No tracing, you lazy bastards.
* Picture must comply with ProBoards TOS and Forum rules.
* If you want to enter in a specific category instead of all of them (see below), please say which you want to enter for. If you want to enter it into all categories, you don't have to say anything.
* Don't describe the picture. If I don't know what the hell is going on, it's probably going to count against you. I say 'probably' because if it makes me laugh you may be up for a special prize anyway.
I may add more rules later depending on what you sick f***s come up with.
Categories and Prizes
Prizes are in parentheses.
1) Best in Show: This is the grand prize, the one that I think is overall best. (Custom title of your choice. Runners-up will get Bronze and Silver medals in the May2010 GO)
2) Funniest: I'm sure most of them will be funny, but the top dog in this category will get a special title. (Custom title: TBA)
3) Weirdest: I really hope to get at least one "WTF?!" moment out of this contest. (Custom Title: That Boy Ain't Right.... if you're a chick, then... well... good for you
)
And now for the theme....
Popular Internet Rumors/Newz (Wrestling)
Nuclear heatz? Someone's a horse? What are all those Divas doing lined up outside Undertaker's dressing room?
Please remember to make them board-appropriate
Just post your entries here in this thread. This contest will run until June 1st, or until I have enough entries... whichever comes first. And yes... you may make multiple entries, but you can only win once.
I should also note that these titles will last until you ask for them to be removed. At no point should anyone PM a mod asking for a new title.
