^Agreed, but as stated in rules, anyone can participate no matter what programs they have or do not have.

I'd like to add that the creator MUST cite the sources used for EVERY element that was found and used unless it was created by the author. This way we will be able to judge by what the author did/did not do.

Just a reminder, you MUST not just take an image from google and add an effect. Here is an example of what not to do :P

^All i had to do was search Google for "Turtles" to find where Klaushouse's image was used/taken from.

If i am not mistaken, that is against the rules correct? Taking an image and just altering it?

Well actually I went on good, found it and went on the site where I found the picture not to be copyrighted hence appropriate for use. Also I didn't just add an effect, I cut out the turtle added effects to the background also along with other things. Superimposed the same background with adjustments to make it look better and another turtle with differentiated levels. THEN some effect! So it's good to go.

Yes Carlie, many times in art and photo shopping, artists take parts of an image that they need, and import it into design they are working on. I feel that this shall be permitted in the armor games GFX battles.

Well, we used to have a rule in my Digital Media class, that we could use pictures, but they had to be changed at least 90%. So you have to be able to change it enough to make it original. Does this sound fair as a rule?
