New Graphics Challenge!

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Hello! I'm here today to announce a new graphics challenge that will be running through October and November! It's a Calendar Challenge, and this means galadriel34 and I will be asking you to help us make one or more calendars for everyone at the comm to use in 2014, should they so wish!



Basic Rules:

1. You need to be willing to create graphics for one or more months, for one or more fandoms.
2. Completed graphics must be the following resolutions: 1000x1600 pixels for portrait and 1600x1000 pixels for landscape
3. Colors should be in 16 bit
4. If at all possible, use HD images for the best results (greater than 1024x768 pixels)
5. You can use one character/actor or as many as you want from your chosen fandom/s
6. The calendar pictures must be completed and submitted by the end of November (we'll cover how to do this closer to submission date).
7. haldoor and galadriel34 will collate the months and make them into as many calendars as necessary, or offer a selection of months in downloadable versions so members can print them at home if they wish. This will be completed by the end of December.


Quick Polls: (individual reponses will only be visible to me at this point)

Sign-ups:

In comments, please:
- express your interest in contributing to the calendar/s
- tell us what fandoms you want to cover
- state how many months you want to contribute graphics for

Once we have your response to this post, we'll decide how many calendars we'll be looking at making overall. Depending on fandom interest, we may group creators and themes according to these or simply go with combinations, but in either case, we'll look at offering individual months for download too. It will also depend on your response to the polls on how we run things in the end, but our next post will explain more.

If I haven't covered anything or you need anything clarified, ask away - either Gala or I will do our best to answer or explain, after consultation with each other if need be.

Oh, and lastly, these graphics can be counted in any other count or requirement for this comm - ask us about posting elsewhere if you have something else that may coincide, but there's probably no reason why your work can't be used for other commitments if they are similar.

Thank you for participating :)
Do you mean some kind of illustrations for a story? Basically we meant about themes for overall the calendar or the months one by one, like: smile, fight, dress up, pairs, ect. I hope it understandable by me but if not H will answer you properly when she come back :)
