Sprite Jam! 9-8-2004 to 16-8-2004

Gilbert · Mon 09/08/2004 11:40:40

Well because of some you-know-why reasons, I decided to end the last competition and start a new one.
Read: I wasn't the winner (there was no winner last time, I didn't even enter the last one), I just start a new one to let things move on.

This week's topic:

A Fruit
Resolution: Not bigger than 50x50
Colours: unrestricted

You may say, "WHA7?2? A fruit? That's uncreative!"
If you really said that then it's you being uncreative, by a fruit it can mean many things, as far as your creative minds go.
For example, it can be an ordinary fruit, like a pineapple (well that's boring of course), but you can also make some non-existing type of fruits, like a chocolate melon (this is just an uncreational example), or even if you drew an ordinary fruit, you can make it special like an apple with wings (well it isn't that special I know).

So the topic is quite open, as long as you can convince ME (read) that it can be regarded as a fruit, which can be suggested by the picture itself or via some small descriptions.

Note also that since this competition is not Photoshop Phriday,Ã,Â this time the rule is strict (in CAPS!):
NO DIRECT PHOTO CUT&PASTE OR "PHOTOSHOPPING".
Drawing with reference photos or tracing over photos are, however, allowed (as I don't process the ability to tell the difference

).

Note also that the result will be judged in this order:
1. Whether the creation sticks to the rules.
2. Creativity.
3. Skill.
4. Amount of $$$ you will pay me.

So it's most important that you follow the rules, unless under very, very special circumstances (like free pr0ns maybe) that I may take point 2 and point 3 for advance. Note also that if you want to bribe me to win it, you gotta be rich as money only coutns as the last point of judgement.

Happy Spriting!

Here you go, a regular fruit!

ghostface · Mon 09/08/2004 13:34:26

mousemat · Mon 09/08/2004 13:49:23

the first was crap so i drew it again

i made a cinamelon

check it out
full of sweet cinamon mixed with melon

do you take plastic?

Gilbert · Tue 10/08/2004 02:01:18

Fun, but since I'm not quite familiar with culture and stuffs I can't get hadda's entry. Was it someone from a band that has to do with fruits?

Evil · Tue 10/08/2004 02:12:28

I guess its just a weird guy. Like m0ds may be considered a fruit.

Redwall · Tue 10/08/2004 03:32:08

Originally I think it meant gay/homosexual.

AGS-GD · Tue 10/08/2004 08:01:58

Hi,

Here is my fruit; the Applear:

I hope you like it.

Haddas · Tue 10/08/2004 09:13:15

Yes, that's what I meant. I've heard homosexuals been called fruits in movies and tv-shows etc. That's what I meant. I wouldn't really say m0ds is a fruit.

Ozwalled · Tue 10/08/2004 10:39:50

KILLER TOMATO!

Tomatoes are fruit! Right? Right!

NOTE: Shamefully, I've never seen any of the Killer Tomato movies.

Dart · Tue 10/08/2004 13:33:39

See it's, uh, a crime-fighting flaming banana who's wearing wicked sunglasses for extra coolness.

SuperCarott · Tue 10/08/2004 14:51:00

HillBilly · Tue 10/08/2004 15:07:51

TOTAL EVILNESS!!

oh, and just because I can:

CHOCOLATE ORANGE!

BerserkerTails · Tue 10/08/2004 15:44:05

SuperCarrot... for some reason your sprite reminds me of the Fruit Fuc-... Err... the Fruit "Friend" from Penny Arcade.

)

mätzyboy · Tue 10/08/2004 17:19:39

It's an apple...

EDIT:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/matzyboy/apple.png
The same apple, with a proper outline this time...

Good to see everyones creativity when it comes to making fruit up! I hope just a regular apple is fine aswell...

MrColossal · Wed 11/08/2004 00:01:36

well, might as well post this then!

It's LasNaranjas flying his Movil poorly...

Dart · Wed 11/08/2004 00:38:26

MrColossal: There's a 50 x 50 pixel length restriction. -_-

MrColossal · Wed 11/08/2004 01:15:24

this is true... wasn't even thinking of that, well, consider it a non entry then, blop blop

Botanically speaking a tomato is a fruit - but more precicely it's a berry as it has a cluster of seeds inside a soft membrane.

also this is a lone suicidal grape doing yoga -

Gilbert · Wed 11/08/2004 02:47:18

Well tomato is something that I can accept as a fruit, so that entry's okay. Of course, you'll be disqualified if you draw a cabbage.

Haddas: Okay

And it's real nice to see that I can disqualify art gods like eric! (amazing orange though

)

Keep it going!

Pesty · Wed 11/08/2004 05:47:14

Princess Tomato! She is a fruit!

Eggie · Wed 11/08/2004 09:04:27

SUNNY D!
IS GOOD!

Actually it tastes like how chemical waste would probably taste with added sugar and has about as much fruit as a...thing with no fruit...

...

IS GOOD!

Fizz · Wed 11/08/2004 10:23:30

would animation be ok?

Gilbert · Wed 11/08/2004 10:27:00

Yes, you can animate it if you want, but it's not of high priority for judgement, unless of corse that animation contributes much to the funniness/creativeness/etc of it.

sedriss · Wed 11/08/2004 11:54:59

I almost wanna say "I was going to enter, but then i saw eric's entry.."Ã,Â

Gilbert · Wed 11/08/2004 11:59:21

Heh why fear eric then? He had been officially disqualified!

sp · Fri 13/08/2004 19:22:36

behold...the grapple!
an apple with the taste of grape!

Darth Mandarb · Fri 13/08/2004 20:49:39

sp - there is a modify button.Ã,Â Please use that instead of double posting.

Isn't grapple a flavor of Snapple?Ã,Â Made from the best stuff on earth?Ã,Â I love that stuff.

sp · Fri 13/08/2004 21:22:03

snapple? SNAPPLE?!? I THOUGHT MY IDEA WAS ORIGIONAL

Domino · Sat 14/08/2004 01:48:33

This is a messed up fruit that i just developed in my lab.

I call it the Capple. One part cat, one part apple. Don't ask, i think something spilled into the test tube.Ã,Â

Enlarged:

HappyHobo · Sun 15/08/2004 07:51:32

It's a treefruit. A fruit that takes the image of the tree it grows on.

Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens · Sun 15/08/2004 09:32:39

It is Kin, the Kung-Fu Kumquat!

Everybody was Kung-Fu fighting...Those 'quats were fast as lightning...

Gilbert · Tue 17/08/2004 02:27:15

Woohoo! It's JUDGEMENT DAY!

I'm quite pleased to say there're quite a few funny entries this time, unfortunately some of them didn't hook up with the size restriction of not more than 50x50 pixels, as I said before, I'm strict on rules this time, so these entries won't be judged (some of them are funny though).

And it's my pleasure to have Eric disqualified as well.
Because of the same reason, "Pesty, you can't win!1!" Since I don't need to the follow the tradition of Pesty-beating-Eric anymore, as his entry was not coutned! (And because princess 2ma2 made me giggle like a girl, shameful!)

Dark-of-Night: I cannot see your image.

I'll judge mainly on creativity's side, that came down to Mr. Frisby, Eggie and ProgZmax...

BUT, the winner is:

Congratulations! So you can start the next competition according to your own rules.

Thanks to everyone who participated!

Yay! I get disqualified because Eric can't read the rules! That's the best disqualification ever!

Domino · Tue 17/08/2004 02:34:25

aww shucks. I know my image works because i could see it on my computer at work. Oh well. If you can see my Avatar, that was the sprite i drew.

Shawn

Gilbert · Tue 17/08/2004 02:38:30

No, I can't see your avatar either.

Pesty · Tue 17/08/2004 02:47:38

I can see it. Do you want me to upload it temporarily so that you can see it, Gil?

Domino · Tue 17/08/2004 02:49:08

yeah, its weird that is doesn't work. oh well, it wasn't that good anyways. Maybe its because i have Verizon as my ISP.

Gilbert · Tue 17/08/2004 02:56:57

Yeah, I'll like to see it, but of course, as the winner was chosen, that won't be changed.

mousemat · Tue 17/08/2004 08:52:08

aww well ...better do better in the next competion
