And I am giving up on this judging.....

floyd take cenere place?

Well, if you are serious about giving up on the judging I would probably do it if asked.

This judging due to the lack of time, since the original judging was delayed, and the lack of Zophia when I do have the time.... And she is on a lan, so she has to proxy the images to see them too....
Bothersome and annoying...
I even have plotted down my top three and all, but I kinda lack my partner in crime... Have a feeling she is either pissed at me, or that I have hurt her feelings because I cursed at her because I had to collect the images, due to the proxy problem.....
Either way, it is most likely my fault....
Anyway, doing the judging if I get some time tomorrow, Zophia or not, just to get it over with.

To be honest, I have been considering quitting the judge spot, since I have increasingly little time, especially at the same time as Zophia, but I kinda have to stay, otherwise there won't be any judgings in time...
Unless, of course, we start having ninja judgings that is there whenever Zophia feels like it.......
*deep sigh*

Your self-deprecation is as amusing as your lack of armatar, either of which is ambiguous as this sentence. I don't know why you guys strain yourselves over judging. (Sure, we can blame Strop for turning judging into a chore.) Just do it when you can and not when you have to.

In less than two hours, it will be one year since I first posted on this thread and got from Strop relatively long comments on "What is art?".

Also, does everyone not see the bigger picture? Not that it's better.

Also, I don't enter to win (either first place or the merit, since I have 4 for the ASC I've never collected). I enter to put in some perspective. It doesn't feel as if anyone is stepping out to be different anymore. It seems more like here is my picture. Judge me.

What, ninja judgings?
Like this?
(And yes, I do have to use a proxy in order to view most of the images, so couldn't have done this if Cen hadn't gathered the urls. Also can't check if I screw up an img code.)
Normally I'd type the entire username, but Cen doesn't, so I'm not sure I get capitalization and/or numbers right here... Sorry.

Anyway, Champion's Exhibit!

*jawdrop* Awesomeee~
Absolutely love the details of the face~ And in general it's just awesome~ Squee~

But onwards. Trying to do this kinda quickly.

First place
Gantic

We kinda agreed on this one. It's lovely simplicity, and portrays one of the very key things of autumn... The falling leaves. Pretty, simple, congrats~

Second place
HecticHermit

As Cen put it (over AIM), the main reason this isn't getting first place is because both of us connect pumpkins more specifically to Halloween than to autumn in general. That said, neat picture, colour choice and composition.

Third place
kingryan

Seems a pretty quiet image. Kinda reminds me of all the people getting depressed around here atm... Last green leaf fallen?

And the rest.

This was actually in my top three, but got pushed out when merging with Cen's. Aside from the oddly strong black horizon, it's a pretty neat pic. Very nice brush effect on the leaves. Yay.

Uhm... Autumn colours, I guess. Kinda more fiery colours, if you want my honest opinion. But abstract approach at an autumnal forest? A bit boring to look at, but it looks like it was fun to make.

Pixie214

I've made a decent amount of images like this one, they're quite fun, but uhm... It may have taken a fair bit of time, but... Pixie, I know you can draw... Or at least fill out white space... Know you can do better... :<

Zega

That's cute~ Sorta fakemonish. Also interesting twist on your signature. A shame the tree trunk isn't shaded when you were so thorough with the critter itself.

Dudeguy

I see Pacman changes his diet from ghosts and cheese to worms and apples during autumn? That could probably be an okay remake of the game... The worm looks amusingly scared~ (Probably logically enough. ^^

Marton

Autumn forest~ A sparsely planted forest, but still. A shame your image came out so blurred (try saving as .bmp or .gif next time if you're working in MS Paint).

Nilo

Pretty much the same as above, only slightly more forest-y and up close. Not sure what you've made it in, but if it isn't Paint you might wanna consider using a softer brush some other time.

Goumas

An autumn leaf fallen into water~
I really like the subtle colour variations across the leaf's surface, unfortunately the lines' pixelation clash rather harshly with it. The water could have used some shading too, more than the ripples.

Alright then.
Let's throw a random theme up.
Or well... I'll let Cen do that when he gets up. Best I could come up with is 'Glasses', but since I don't know when to put the deadline anyway... Ceeen? (It's 6 am... Cen'll be up in some hours, I guess, maybe.)

It doesn't feel as if anyone is stepping out to be different anymore.

hehe kingryan theres soo much security 4 zophia 2 get threw its almost like anti-freedom of speech....BTW for the future....supposly photobucket is blocked for Zophia...DA is all right

B) If you were to understand all the reasons I chose a pumpkin..well heres a few.

1. Halloween of course
2. Thanksgiving mmm pumpkin pies/pastries
3. The Color orange and brown represent leaves/ the colors of fall
5. The warmness of the colors also represent family/friends being brought together 4 holidays

Thats the reasons PUMPKIN KING Charlie Brown!!!

Hmm...so we are waiting on a theme.

Gantic mine had more feeling behind it....but I'm not that good at expressing.

And Zoph...it is the first to have fallen.

Also interesting twist on your signature.

but uhm... It may have taken a fair bit of time, but... Pixie, I know you can draw... Or at least fill out white space... Know you can do better... :<

Jeez....
Okay, going to be a total jerk and take it from there...
