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.

oh wait uh...scratch what I just said in that last post. Because of Spring Break(I blame it) I have a shorter attention span and didn't even bother looking at who created that poster....the sad part is that for some reason I had the idea in my mind that Cenere made it and he only joined as of last September, so I have no clue if he has ever met calm or AsherLee(I can't even remember if they were around at that time) but Strop....well I would sure hope he knew them more then I did....now excuse me as I go on a rant on how I could not notice the blue wall of text after the image...

You are right! *more apparently random throwing of confetti*
Lessee.. Voidless as a Charizard, Estel as a Sudowodo, Dank is featured as a Haunter for some reason, Moe is the Alakazam, and Flipski the Steelix. Zophia is a Sandshrew, Tuna a Magikarp, Strop is obviosly a Ponyta, and Nemo a Mightyena, because... I went out of pokemon by then.

You must go to any image hosting site like Photobucket and whatnot. Make an account and upload. Then use the url given.

Looks like someone got overlooked...

Is it just me or does everyone dream in black and/or blue? Spending too much time on AG?

Is it possible to reuse something from a different medium, say writing, so long as it has not been visually presented before?
Funny that you mentioned that black and blue thing... Huh...

Anyways, I'm not sure I understand your question. What is it you want to do?

That's all fine and stuff, but how does that relate to the theme of the competition?
If you just want to show your drawings/get opinions of them, you should create your own thread.

Trust me that works about as well as feeding a cactus a steak and expecting it to grow. I got 3 comments and nothing more. Seems like friends are the only ones who give you any good comments, and most of the time are just "nice work dude!" and if it's something not their taste they'll jsut be like "ehhh, I don't really like"

I suggest that if you wanna be put in the theme, try putting a map and the letters "The mod vault" or something. The path to moderatorship, it should be called. mhmm.

I'm stumped for this, I could make fun of strop or try something. But I doubt that trying something will do anything for me, as trying has only brought doubt and fail to me. Fail I couldn't fix or think out of, either.

@Adam: Flipski's burrito doesn't fit in the picture. It's either the burrito, or the rest of the mods >_>

Gantic writes a fair bit on the forum; I think he's asking if he can visually represent one of those writings here. Which personally I don't see a problem with, but I'm not a judge!

Why is why you don't feed it steak...more to the point! In case you didn't notice, most self-created threads are like this. They're better thought of as archives with the occasional interjection. The only reason they get big is because you keep feeding it.

HOW COULD YOU MISTAKE MY ART FOR CENERE'S WE'RE TOTALLY DIFFERENT PEOPLE D:

Haha, relax man, let's just say it even things up after my misunderstanding yesterday :P

Portray something previously written in pictorial format.

Originally, I wanted to make a picture of something I had written before, but I've since changed my mind and decided to expand upon that particular idea and go in a slightly different direction.
