Hello and welcome!

This is a spin-off of the original GFX Art Battle, but with some updated rules and changes. Please make sure to read the rules before entering, since they have been modified. Good luck, we look forward to seeing some creative artistic entries!

Competition Rules
1. Must be hand drawn, either on paper or in a program. It can then be manipulated in an graphics program. But unoriginal artwork cannot be used as the main focus. Copyrighted images cannot be used. All pieces containing copyrighted images will be disqualified.
2. Submissions must follow the current theme that has been chosen by a moderator for that week. If you submit more than one piece, please clarify which one you would like to be judged.
3. If your image is larger than 600 pixels wide, please provide a link to the image instead of posting it in the forum. Otherwise, the image will be cut off.
4. Artists cannot win in subsequent weeks. You can still submit, but if you won the week before, you cannot get first place again the next week.
5. After the deadline, a moderator will pick the winner, and they will be awarded a 25 AP award.

That's quite a decent rendition of what 4chan but there is no rules at all. There is one single rule on /b/ and it's no child porn, that's it. Anything else goes and they mean anything, they are in charge of some of the worst things that have ever hit the internet. Lolcats? That's them, hacking into Sarah Palin's email? Them. Scientology protests? Then, Hacking into myspace and filling it with gay pornography? Them. And I won't mention the actual BAD stuff they do.

Kevin44 is right: that would probably win you DM hands down. Even more so than Klaushouse erection. I mean, it takes 30 years for a tragedy to become funny *obscure South Park reference*

...I've been encouraging bad behavior. This is unbefitting of a moderator. I must regain my honour *takes ninjato and commits seppuku*

[quote]such as f@g against gays.


Except that one is accurate...

Although this probably is not the place for that discussion...i just could not help myself.[/quote]

Just a reminder: Due to anti-flaming and anti-discriminatory site policy, you're actually obliged to be able to "help yourself" on this count. You are not even supposed to say that f@g is an appropriate description of "a gay", because at some point I'm supposed to be banning people for that.

The point is that indeed, f@g is to homosexual as n***** is to African-American. For our purposes they are not to be used on these forums.

Also, sn***** is censored because this particular filtered word doesn't detect it as part of a word...but I can petition to have this fixed.

There are a million ways I could get off topic with that but I will stay on topic and say... I might actually enter this one. Prepare to laugh, both at my entry and my lack of drawing skills.

At one point in my life I actually wanted to be just like him lol. So he was my tiny childhood hero at one point. . .so ya, you'd have someone on your hate list.

Hahahaha when I read 30 years for a tragedy to become funny I immediately went to south park, I remember that. ROFL! I usually go for 10 years though.

Usually that word is spelled Snicker and that should be let that way, I don't think there is an urgent need to fix that word when its one letter off from being derogatory and you have a word that is just as good.

Well, there are two things:

Samurai was a class thing- you were born into being a noble warrior. Ninja was an occupation associated with a type of martial art (ninjutsu), and most ninja were generally not born noble. You can't become a samurai through being a ninja, but you can become a ninja while being a samurai.

I'm not sure of the intricacies of it but I imagine that at some period, ninja under the employ of an authority would also be at least loosely honor bound under some circumstances. Don't quote me on that one...at the very least there would definitely be some circumstances in which they had to perform suicide for the sake of preserving a mission.
