Since the other contest didn't work out too well, Matt and I decided to have a new contest. Because it seems that not many people know how to do 'celshading' and 'photochop'in', we will have a contest where more people will be able to participate. This time, our contest's theme will be based on Initial D Fourth Stage. Yes, that's right. We'll be using images (screenshots) directly from Fourth Stage. Anyways, let's go through the rules.


The contest will consist of, once again, three (3) rounds.


F I R S T _ R O U N D

You'll be making a wallpaper in this round. You must provide a wallpaper with the dimensions of 800(width) x 600(height) or 1024(width) x 768(height). The wallpaper you are making has to be about Initial D Fourth Stage. In other words, you have to use screenshots from Fourth Stage episodes to complete this round. If you are unsure on how to take screenshots from video, you can use the screenshots we have provided. (See below)



S E C O N D _ R O U N D

In this round, you are going to make three (3) avatars. The avatars you are making have to be in this dimension - 100(width) x 100(height). The first avatar has to be related to Initial D Fourth Stage. (Again, use our screenshots if you don't know how to take screenshots from video) The second avatar has to be related to KPop, JPop, CPop, or any Pop stars / singers. (i.e. - BoA, Ayumi Hamasaki, Michelle Branch ... etc.) The third avatar will be random. In other words, it can be anything, (i.e. - cars, airplanes, flowers ... etc.) Of course, all submitted avatars will be put into the database.



T H I R D _ R O U N D

In the third and final round you will be making a banner with the required dimensions of 400(width) x 50(height). The banner will have to be related to Initial D Fourth Stage as well. (Once again, you can use the Fourth Stage screenshots provided by us) The top three (3) winners of this round will have their banner displayed as the forums' title logo. Thus, you have to put the text 'Initial D World Forums' somewhere on the banner.



D E A D L I N E

First Round Deadline will be Saturday July 17th 2004, 23:59 (GMT -08:00)
Second Round Deadline will be Saturday July 24th 2004, 23:59 (GMT -08:00)
Third Round Deadline will be Saturday July 31st 2004, 23:59 (GMT -08:00)



H O W _ T O _ S I G N U P

If you are interested in this, and want to compete, please reply and say you will be competing. Deadline for signup is July 10th, 2004 (note: you are not turning in anything on that day, deadline for signup is simply the last day to register to compete, no work is due on that day.)



S C R E E N S H O T S

Fourth Stage screenshots are now available in this URL, https://idforums.net/media/images/fourthstage/

There are a total of 416 screenshots ranging from episode 1 to episode 4, there are also screenshots from the opening scene. Anyways, the zipped file of all 416 files will be available shortly.

After each deadline, the appointed judges will mark the graphics and then e-mail their results to contest@go2id.net. At the end of all three(3) rounds, all the results will be posted in one final thread for each artist and the top 3 digital artists announced. In the event of a tie, the appointed judges will evaluate the artists (not the graphics) who are tied on their overall performance using the same prior judging criteria.

Ben, David, eightsixdrifter9, Initial Law, killingneemo, nismor34, Perry, Rayn, Uriko, |[ .tainted. ]|

That's about it. All the graphics will be marked by appointed judges. This thread will be constantly updated and the information already provided is subject to change. So come back to check for any updates. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here.

It was a great idea... There is no one here that is hardcore in gfx though...

Uhm, i'm gonna judge and compete, but my works won't be counted. Exept my last banner, which will be voted for by the other judges and my vote will count as 3. I just wanna let people see what the Ben can do. grin2.gif

Uhm no, Ben. You aren't judging. The judges were set a while ago and you weren't one of them.

Screenshots have already been taken care of. We had around 500 screenshots spanning from Initial D Fourth Stage episodes 1 - 4. We reduced that number to about 50 screenshots per episode, so you should have a wide selection of images to choose from.

Thats.... a lot of screenshots. I need to know the dates because from something to I think 18th or 19th I'll be at the beach and no Photoshop. crying2.gif So I'll have to hurry up and make my stuff before hand and possibly turn them in before hand aswell.
