Okay, I get the feeling things are running behind so I'll get this started quick.

    the idea is a Medievil Kareoke Bar and Grill.

I'm pretty sure I've spelt Kareoke wrong but this next but wont confuze ya :

           256 colours (of super dooper coolness)

        & 320 X 200 (or the square aspect ratio of 320 x 240)

     but you have to draw it in MS paint
       with your unpreffered hand -   JUST KIDDING!!. . .

any medium you prefurr, and feel free to twist the theme as far as you want - the warpederer the better.
     - i likey the warp and will possibly be judging on it.

EDIT: Sorry OTG the ish was just a joke coz the blitz usually goes into overtime.                                                
Hey! All my awesome trophies dissapeared in the year since I was here last. CONSARN_IT! with an underscore!!! I earned dem tings!! Oh well. Hope your Monkey floats.

Mr Frisby, you can't have it 26thish because people need a deadline before which to submit pics and vote. :P




Evil

Well just try to get them in before the 26th. If you dont you may still have time. I was on vacation one day, so I think -ish days are fine so long as you have a reason...

ish is the reason these things are never finishing on time and dragging on forever. :P

Thanks Mr_Frisby, they tend to go into overtime, but that shouldn't be the intent from the start. ;)

Witchsmeller

cool, I like this idea - count me in.

Oh, I'm kinda new here... what's ish thing?

Cool. Here's mine:



EDIT: I think it's "Medieval" and "Karaoke". Sorry I didn't twist the theme.

Mr_Frisby

Yes it fits the bill and it 's really cool!

God there need to be more entries. I'll throw one together tommorow.

Paranoia

Rincewind



Not the best background ever made, but I just felt I had to enter this blitz.
Cool entries so far!

Thanks, and actually ... yes.  I am left handed.

A damsel in distress, or a naive knight in search of fame; perhaps a friar on his way with a supply of 'wine', or a carefree bard...regardless of whom, the chance remains that they'll end up in...the "Dragon's Mouth." And what better way to pass the time than with Karaoke.



EDIT: Forgive me all, I'm not sure I followed the 256color rule. I noticed everyone else saved as .GIF. Is this the extension for 256colors?

BOYD1981

WanderLady: well, there's only 176 colours in that pic, PNG doesn't give that horrible artifacting compressiony effect thingy that JPG does, even if you save that picture with 1% jpg compression you end up with artifacting and 6730 colours...

Darth Mandarb: if you're wondering how i guessed that you're left handed it was because of the angle of the isometricness (315° rather than 45°) i figured that would be easier for somebody left handed than right, ain't i clever?  :D

BOYD - how did you count the colours, is there a program that does that or do you have that rainman disease?

i love that movie.  

to answer your question, boyd COULD have autism, but more likely he's using paint shop pro or some other program that will count the number of colours used in an image for you.
I like having low self-esteem.  It makes me feel special.
   
taryuu?

BOYD1981

yeh, i used paintshop pro to count the colours

Mr_Frisby

he heh he! You drewd what I was not expecting in the mspaint game Boyd - very cool.
(also you should have stuck with autism - autism is way cooler than paint shop pro!)

Okay because I am lazy and probably wont look at this tomorrow, and it's the 26th n all - whats say we do the votey thing!!

If people want to vote it would be cool, coz I don't want to decide on my own astheyareallcoolandchangingtheworldasweknowitasIspeak . . breathe . .F. . Breathe..   .phew!

Back in the days when it was the fashion to quote any Tom Dick and Harry, this would surely have been quoted

Do we vote for ourselves, or is it an automatic self-vote, or do entrants not vote at all?

Hmm...I really like Darth Mandarb's.
[vote check-Darth Mandarb]

[If legal: I vote AlexisVale.]

Whether we are allowed to vote for ourselves or no, it is a courtesy to give your vote to another despite the thought that yours may be the best.
