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

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.

For the sake of.... I knew there was a reason why I should not take a day off, even though I am told it is okay!

This round have had the most entries ever to make me go "... whut?"

As such, I find this really hard to judge. So let's just say I have a theory that this is the order in which the entries should be placed:

Champion's exhibition:

Wormhole theory. I'm not sure there's really anything more to say to that. Nowormhole?

1st:
kingryan

Winning due to cute/simple/literalness. Though your critter has a lot of theories~
Mainly due the cute factor, I really like looking at this one.

2nd:
crimsonblade55

Getting second mainly for creative twist on the theme~
Also, I played your game. I think the corners of the nazi orbs go too far out, can't do fancy dodging.

3rd:
ubertuna

Getting third for making the, to me, least comprehensible entry. Thus making me go "I might have a theory on what that is, but..." Which might not have been the intended effect, but it's good enough.

The rest in random order:

dudeguy45

I... Don't know. Really. Do you have a theory on what it is? (That was a joke, not trying to sound mean.)

shayneii

Electricity, the best way to roast your theories for that crispy taste of brain.

Pixie214

Moment of realizing his theory was "waterproof"?~ Heh~~~

That was sadly all. Well, people are busy during summers.

Now:

Theme: Stick
Deadline: July 27th

Stick. Maybe a stick, maybe something sticking to something. Creativity of any kind strongly encouraged.

The correct number of theories was 16! Congrats to Samdawghomie, who got the closest (since Goumas changed his guess)!!!!
