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.

but unfortunately I'm not exactly sure of the meaning behind seven, but it's not a good number


Depends on your perspective. In Christian theology, it's God's number. In math, it's the number nobody can think of a divisibility test for and has a really cool repeating decimal when taken as a fraction. Observe!

1/7 = 0.142857...
2/7 = 0.285714...
3/7 = 0.428571...
4/7 = 0.571428...
5/7 = 0.714285...
6/7 = 0.857142...

Got a calculator? Try it!

But yeah. Gosh. I'll think about it some more and see if I can coalesce those hints into a pithy message, and I will look at all the entries together, and judge.

As for your quote, isn't that Mark Twain?


yes Mark Twain,and I said English so I don't get where Einstein came from.

Another couple of things to point out,is 7 is known as a lucky number like the one that you see in the slot machines at a Las Vegas Casino or something...

and it is a number you sometimes need to get in some dice games to win.According to Gantic apparently I was right in some aspects of what I assumed were connections between certain things in it,but for some reason this may be quite difficult to figure out still.Although I think this may all link back to the theories that Freud was trying to prove,and that may give a even bigger hint if observed carefully enough.Who knows maybe we just need to look at it differently, or from a different point of view.Its obvious that I will probably feel stupid if I don't figure it out,and it ends up being something obvious that was right in front of our faces,but known of us caught it before the end.

Einstein came from Switzerland, or Germany, if I recall correctly... I might not, my dead died three hours ago...
But cleverly done, though I think most of you drawings end up loat on us....

oh OK that makes alot more sense(oddly enough)but this goes to show that typos can be quite bad depending on the situation and can cause quite the misunderstandings as well.Also ues by looking at that post it is a bit apparent.

Well, technically, according to the Catholic Bible, the number 7 is the number of ultimate perfection, and 6 is the opposite. 7 being the number oh god, while 6 being the number of the devil. Yay for Religious Education!

Poor Cenere, if it makes you feel any better, I was assigned a writing project similar to yours. Funny how we were talking about it, then the next day I get assigned writing 2 pages every night until February... mines easier than yours though, because its double space, and half of each is a given.

*looks around with boredom*

Well, take a look. Strop causes volcano's to erupt too. Are his powers limitless?!

Three days (more likely two, or one full day) to write ten pages about something... And I have not read any on the pensum.... I am going to fail even harder than with the other one...

Being up late:

Cenere does not approve.

... Yes, I have a character for most of my usernames... Either realted to, or having the name. ... And there reason why Cenere does not approve of being up late? I tend to act very off topic after 11 pm....

Ah, I forgot about the English part.
But that's because there's a poster in the back of my classroom, with a guy who looks like Mark Twain and Albert Einstein, with that quote on it, and I never figured out which it was.

Bah, all I can think about now is the urban legend about Mark Twain and the brown note.

Judgement soon(ish)!

*Throws spoons in random directions for no apparent reason*

@Cenere
I feel your pain. I think anyway. I tend to get really off topic too. :\\ But throwing spoons makes me feel better. Why spoons? Because at first I thought Strop said "Judgement spoon(ish" hahahaha.

@Strop
I guess you do have a limit to your powers, you spelled judgment wrong...

I like spool's and spoon's better. The word spool makes me laugh. Hahah I don't know why, but it does. How cool would it be if our next topic for here is "Random Things That Make You Laugh" Epic.
