Title: Colouring Ball: This means something... [Jul 22 - Aug 5]
Post by: Ultra Magnus on Tue 22/07/2008 19:25:56
I'm seeing things again.
I seem to keep finding this random shape everywhere I look.

Please, help me figure out what it is I'm seeing.
This means something... This is important...

Rules:
The only stipulation is that it should be obvious where the shape is within your finished image, and that it should... attract attention towards itself. Stand out, like.
Other than that, feel free to rotate and resize, and draw within and without the lines.
No colour or size limits.

The competition ends two weeks froooommmmm... right now! Go!

Have fun playing with the crayons, kids, and trophies will soonly be... trophised. 8)

Might be a bit too much to hope for, but do you have a none jpeg version, with which I mean, it isn't blurred out?

Balls, I thought I saved it as a png.
Sorry. Shall be fixed.

Edit: Rectified. Better?

[space reserved for later haunting]

And here is- in the tradition of the Silver Age "Creature Features" (pay attention to the *very* clever little pun I sneaked into the caption ;) )

The trophy for stupidity.

No, seriously, why do you make an account just to upload a pic...?


EDIT: Ah, didn't realize you meant the AGS-Forum-Account. I thought you made an account on some strange website to upload a picture. My fault.

It's clearly some strange and dangerous creature. If you really see this "everywhere you look", then I'd go to a psychiatrist if I were you.

Gold, silver and... copper.

Some really good entries so far.
Keep 'em coming, people!
Feel free to do more than one if you have another idea.

It's there, the sausage's the basin. Took me 5 minutes to find it.

Hehe,

this shape is definately everywhere   :=

But I had a hard time, not to add another pudding or a bell.

New entries! Sweetness!
I thought we'd had all the entries we were going to have a week ago.

There are 23¼ hours left until the compo's close, if there are any last minute stragglers out there.

Right-o. Judgement time.

(http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/3575/bronzezv1.png) 3rd place, for prettiness, goes to Ghost.
Pretty purple, nice translucent jelly effect, and a very clever little pun.

(http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/1403/silverlo6.png) 2nd place, for creativity, goes to Domino.
I like the way that the shape represents something that isn't actually there; the hole.

(http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/2695/goldjn5.png) 1st place, for creativity and prettiness, goes to Matti.
Screw the psychiatrist, I'll need to find me some protection!
Only then can I make sweet love to it.

Honourable mentions go to both abstauber and flbbd2fl for being very creative, but unfortunately it wasn't obvious what I was looking at.

Thanks for all the great entries, and congrats to the trophy-havers.
Back to you, Matti, to start the next one.

Wow, didn't think I have a chance with ghosts and abstaubers entries, but as always it's a matter of taste....

I don't think I have time to make a new theme for a week from now. You either wait a bit or someone else starts a new competition..

Well, it's up to you guys.
Domino, do you want to take it, or would you rather wait?

I would but i would rather be a participant again.  Maybe Buckethead, because he did win the totem coloring ball.  Just an idea.
