Nice looking one you've got Professor.

Fifteen now.. I'm excited as usual.

@kingryan
At first I thought it was some stickdude leaning backward on his arms and out of the frame. Then I realized that it was an 'R'. You image looks like it has some minor transparency going on because a gray border shows up.

@Mayatoto
Wall-climbing cats! Awesome. And the only accepted entry without any letters so far.

@The Nutty Proffessor
Maybe you should've never had your username corrected. I mean, making the same mistake when the theme of this is Your Username has gotta say something. It looks great, but unfortunately, I will not accept yours because it is basically Pokemon fan art.

Image has been updated to 14.

I will not accept yours because it is basically Pokemon fan art.

Why don't you draw something related to oaks?

It wasn't too hard to find...

Actually one of the cats was supposed to be upside down and the other rightway up, but I changed it when I was playing around and posted it like that by accident... but I like it better that way.

Prof Oak, it was a really cool one, so I hope you aren't discouraged. I guess this makes it harder if your username is based off a cartoon character. Hmm maybe an acorn with glasses or something?

But it's my username? I should be able to use it. But if I don't get him to allow it, I will definitely use your idea of an acorn with glasses, haha. Thanks.

@ProfessorOak
While it's only technical infringement, it's still technical infringement, unless you have something saying you can use it. I know they don't crack down on it (and cracking down on it would be a waste of everyone's time) but it's not an excuse to infringe and I don't cross that line. As Prof. Oak is primarily a graphical character, it makes it harder, so unless you have something saying you can use it, I won't use it. I'm confused in such an area because it's so full of fog, landmines, and steep cliffs that I don't even want to walk through it. If Prof. Oak was primarily a character in written form only, then I'd accept it.

Here is how I look at it. Outside of this Project, outside of context, the individual entries are essentially:
-A signature
-A name
-Letters/initials with nationality
-An unregistered trademark
-A name
-An image with a name
-Greek letters/numberals
-A name
-A letter
-A name in an image
-La
-An image with a name
-An R with a crown
-Cats

Yours would be
-Pokemon fan art

@goumas13
Now how is his entry coming along? :P Yeah, I realize that most users don't actually venture past the Tavern so they wouldn't know this existed if they don't go to this forum or look at my profile (though I don't think anyone ha come here through my profile.)

@Mayatoto
It looks awesome like that. Now I gotta figure out which one was upside down.

Your loss without my awesome tile! ;3

Just a question here: If I make it in photoshop I would put in photobucket or something to get the url? Any prefernces on jpegs or pings etc.?

Yes, you would need to upload the image to an image host and then post it here.

Any image file type is fine. Just know that if you submit anything but GIF, there will be minor loss in image quality.

Hmm maybe an acorn with glasses or something?

A wizened oak would be cool. Just thinking acorn would be easier to draw. Could he keep the same pic and just sub a tree or acorn coming out of the head where the face would be? hee hee

Aye.

It took me a few minutes after I made that post to realize the difficulty.

Yeah, especially doing it as pixel art.

I'm sure I'll do it eventually, but I am too lazy right now.
