Christmas PixelArt Competition..Final Update

Journal Entry: Fri Dec 28, 2007, 3:07 AM


.






A Christmas Scene


Christmas will be here before we know it with all the pretty tinsel, colored lights, smells of roasting chestnuts and Christmas trees waiting to be taken home and decorated.

It is a time for sharing, giving and thinking of others....and decorating our homes and shops for the festive season.

:bulletred:Competition

Now is your chance to create a PixelArt Christmas Scene and maybe win a prize.

(So what is PixelArt?.....Just something made in msPaint? NO! Watch these videos they will give you a basic idea. [link] and [link] ..these are speeded up, much faster than in real life of course)

It may be created in either Isometric or Non Isometric form. (Not sure what Isometric means? [link])

It may be either a decorated room, building, window or scene.

It may be animated but with no more than three frames.

It may be no larger than 300x300 pixels in size but may be in any proportion under that size, to a lower limit of 75x75 pixels. It may be in either a PNG file or a GIF file. A GIF file will need a preview download if the piece is over 150x150 pixels in size.

No transparencies/reduced opacity, gradients, brushes, burn tools or other computer generated effects may be used.

A demonstrated appearance of individually hand laid pixels using the pencil tool should be evident by either random or patterned dithering. (Don’t know what dithering is? [link]) *

A limited color palette will also be seen as a positive advantage.

All work should be new for the Competition.

The Competition will run from 15th November to 25th December.

:bulletred:Prizes

There will be three winners selected from all the entries received.

1st Place - 1 ekto hoodie top plus a 1 year subscription
