One year and still kicking! Contest over - VOTE!

[Soppon]

On January 2, 2006 Beyblade Association will celebrate 1 year of existance. Sure we haven't been the most active of guilds, but we've hung on and hope to hang on for a long while.

This is where the contest comes in. All you artists, grab your pens or tablets and get to work because here comes BBA's first art contest. The winner of the contest will have their art displayed on the guild main page,for everyone to see and will also receive an item prize. What more could you ask for? Well, another season of Beyblade, but I can't pull miracles out of the air.

Criteria for the art
+ it must be no larger than 600 pixels wide (Since I can't remember the max banner width for guilds, if you know it then post)
+You may choose how tall it is, but don't make it outrageous.
+There must be at least one Beyblade character on it
+There shall be No: OCs, pairings or characters from other animes.
+No nudity
+The image must be your OWN
+Please remember to sign it.
+Keep it lower than PG-13, please.

Remember, this image will give people a first impression of our guild, we don't want to give them a wrong one. Style and subject are completely up to you

The contest will end on January 2, or when whe have at least 5 entries.

Now for the prize. First place shall receive the December 2005 letter from while the second place shall receive a gold prize of 1,500. Prizes may be subject to change/improvement. =D

I hope you all have a great time with this and that BBA ends up with a gorgeous front page image.

The submissions!

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANIVERSARY!!!!

[Starkhaven]

Extension? Yes? xD

All I've got is the shading and then I'm done 8D

HAPPY FREAKING ANNIVERSARY, BBA!!! *hugs it*  

[Soppon]

Yes, yes, extension. XD; We're alive, but apparently not very artistic. I would have hoped to see a bit more participation.

I forgot to add the confirmation of the prizes a while back so they'll be put up in a moment.

I hope there are sitll people around here next year. whee  

[Orionis Rigel]

You KNOW I will, Stace.

I'm going to be 80 and STILL a KaRe shipper.

I mean... I've been going with the shipping for... well... 2006 is my fourth year xD;;;

Finally xD

I finished.

The wording is very fuzzy because JPEG is a stupid idiot >O I might upload a new one if it's a problem.

*bored and goes to do homework*

EDIT: Changed the file type and hosted it somewhere new. I hope it's less blurry, now ^^;;  

[Soppon]

Ja, I can't read the words at all on my monitor. Well, I can sort of if I lean down really far... Damn LCD monitors. And I can't make it any darker 'cause then I'd see nothing when I play WoW at night.

It's very cute though. whee  

[Soppon]

From lack of other entry I have closed the contest. It's too bad there were only two submissions but I guess it makes it easier to choose one. I'll leave the poll open for a few weeks.

If the artists would prefer to stamp their name on their piece then go for it. But if not before it's posted I'll put your name on it somewhere.  

[Soppon]

Hmm, I've been sitting here and thinking about this very pathetic attempt at the contest.

If people don't mind, I'd like to create a random rotation (such as like my sig) and rotate the two submitted arts and the current banner. Of course, we could always add more later on if we needed. =D

Any arguments against? The two that submitted will still get something. You both can't escape!  

[Starkhaven]

Are you going to put up Jess' purty picture or should I? xD
