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.

Probably just meant when it came to judging. But you can have a dot from me: .

So basically:
Deth4
Zophia
(Cenere, but probably not... As Strop said, I am grumpy > &gt
Well, Deth, if you are ready to take up the heavy job as a judge in a popular competition, there should be no reason for you not to be a nomenee. You will have to be fair, and probably be able to look pass the quality of the art, as well as being as much on time with the judging as you can.
And people would probably like to get a comment on their entry, like Strop did. Mentioning all the entries.

Lol I don't think Cenere or Zophia should be judges. As either would cause too much tension as judge from what I have seen. Sorry but that's the truth. :/

well I've judged a contest before(pertaining to music though) and am good at keeping up with deadlines.I guess I could give it a shot,although for some reason I have a feeling that it would be best that a mod such as Zophia judge so that the rewards can be given more easily.

Yea, I think it should be Zoph, Or Cen.


Alright, but know that if neither of them are up to it, I would love to do it, I have mentioned to Strop before that if he needs a hand in it, I'm willing. and I have plenty of free time. So, yeah, time wouldn't be an issue for me. Plus I judge fail and clean *raises head proudly* I think I have proven myself to follow my word... *cough* kong attack *cough*

I have a feeling that it would be best that a mod such as Zophia judge so that the rewards can be given more easily.


True, but also mods have been very busy, so they would end up putting it off.

Zophia is up for it, so she will probably end up being the judge. And since Strop somewhat asked me (not officially, and only because he was curious) I guess I could try as well, if anyone would like it (hardly believable).

But well, another count:
Deth, Zophia, Me.., fst6, Crimson and Cholo...

Hm... so is there going to be a vote off? Like, the mods choose the final 3 or 4, then AG votes for the new judge? Because Strop said that the community would chose the next judge...

I think so, but let it rest through the night and we will see in the morning how many more want to let out their oppinion. Seemingly Zophia will end up the judge, though, if she is still going for that post with school and mod-work to do also.

well that pretty much means we have to figure it out on our own(I think) but what I am guessing that if that is what happens then most will vote for Zophia anyways.Still just for the heck of it I shall try and see how it all ends.I know we need to decide soon though,as the next contest would probably need to be started before the end of the weekend.

Okay, I will start it (not because I am going to be the judge anyway, but because we need the round to start), so the theme will be JUDGEMENT!

So:
Theme: Judgement
Deadline (for now): Friday the 16th of January

Just a quick note, Cen, Crimson, and I, are creating a competition, so you the users of AG can officially pick who you want to be the official judge.

It will be out by Saturday, please do not create any threads about it until then. This is just so it will be clear which thread will be the official one. Thanks

hmm I wonder if we will be able to compete if we make the rules?Anyways I think the system will be simple and the initial preliminaries will need to be completed before the end of the weekend.I think you guys will hopefully like the system we have for the new official judge.It may take awhile to decide though.Keep that in mind.
