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.

*laaaaaaaazy* I got four hours of sleep last night. If judging is delayed it's because I've crashed. Also, my mom's visiting, so kinda distracted here.

Ragemade by cen, ROFL.

And Thoad wonders why I dun have any self esteem... All he did was laughing at my attempts to make the entry better, and say that it was too dark, the colours were wrong, actually I should redraw it entirely, because I am a borderline noob...
And after I got to the state of total self hate, and really wanting to throw out my computer and scream out the window... He wondered why I cannot take critique... Because taking critique on something that is finished and over with is so much fun, especially when there is no file to adjust, nothing... Only a slight proud feeling of what I made, pride ready to step on a crush.
He did a good job....

I know how you both feel, I got 0 sleep last night. My sleeping pattern has been so far off lately that I had to go with no sleep to get it back on track.

*sigh* Critique is to be taken for the Next time. It's a great pic cen :P just cuz there's something that could be improved for something you wanted, doesn't mean that it's a terrible pic.

anyways, I can't wait for Zophia to judge.

@Thoad:
I like the picture. I was proud of it. Yes, actually proud.
Then it was criticized. First crack in pride. Thus I must correct it, even though it is going against what I had in mind.
And it keeps on until I hate the picture so much that I would rather throw myself off the stairs than ever see or hear about it again...

You'll eventually get used to four hours of sleep Zoph. . .don't worry. . .I've been geting from three to six hours of slep for the last two years. Usually around 4 or 5.

you know I get the feeling at this rate that the competition will start to get judged on Tuesdays every week after a while at this rate. Anyways I guess it doesn't really matter to me too much this time, though I wish I knew a popular image file type that could somehow retain quality of my image and somehow take down the file size to 3 times lower then that of a .png file.....yeah like that will happen anytime soon. If you think that image of mine that I submitted on page 482 seems small though, then it is because it is a 3 MB image file, and Photobucket only allows you to upload things that are 1 MB or smaller before they resize them to fit the appropriate size to where it would only be 1 MB(smaller image =
smaller file size).....I don't know why I am pointing this out now, but I just felt like it.
