Spring Alliance Contest!

Greetings, luminous Allies! It is my pleasure to announce the Spring Alliance Contest!

:iconlit-visual-alliance:
What is the Alliance, you ask?
The Alliance is a project group intended to encourage visual and literary artists to work together. I've felt for some time that the dA Literature Community can at times be somewhat insular - to its detriment. We in the Lit Community are also sometimes prone to griping about the lack of exposure our work receives when compared to that of visual artists. So in the spirit of ^thorns brilliant Complaint Challenge I thought I would try to do something about that. And so the Alliance was born!
Because I, your founder, have a deep and abiding love for the seasons, this group now hosts seasonal contests, and as the Winter Contest is now over, it is time for Spring.

Single Stock ChallengeHello from the admins of #TheArtOfManipulation! It's time for a new Contest and this one is going to be BIG!

How it Will Work
For this contest, we are going to make things TOUGH. We will provide you with a list of stockers that you can choose from, however you only get to choose ONE stock artist and you must use all stock from that artist. And to make things even harder, you cannot use any human models, premade backgrounds, PNG cut-outs, or brushes (except the preset ones located in your software already). Also you MUST use a minimum of 3 stock images, there is no maximum

The Rules

Must be a member of #TheArtOfManipulation in order to submit to the contest folder, make sure you read the rules and answer the 3 questions to join the group!

Your entry MUST be a PHOTOMANIPULATION. That means it involves 2 or more (in this case 3 or more

Please read:

Art must be new and can't be my order(comm, at)

You can draw many entries (that would be lovely ^^) but only one can win (1st, 2nd or 3rd place)

Dialectical Dessertism: The ContestIt has long been debated just how cake and pie came to be bitter enemies (and occassional allies against other desserts). Some say it started in the Middle Ages when butter was first used for both unequally awesome desserts.
While others say it was when cake became a CV and the power went to her head!
At still yet, there is the rumor that is started when pie failed his sobriety test and blamed it all on cake for keeping him out too late.
But maybe none of those are the real story. That's where YOU come in.
What's this Contest About?
It's pretty simple. You're going to answer a very simple question. What is the origin of the pie/cake debacle? How you go about doing that is completely up to you. But since you have complete creative freedom to write history, we're expecting some very interesting (to say the least) renditions.
What's Going to be Judged?

Both poetry and prose will

Emoticon TournamentAfter months of waiting and anticipation, the "Secret Contest" I had planned is here! I bring you, the Emoticon Tournament!

As some of you may remember, !DryBones44 hosted an epic tournament called the “Multi-Round Emoticon Drop Out Contest”. http://web.archive.org/web/20110815070308/http://drybones44.deviantart.com/journal/41567949/

The tournament was a blast and there were many participants! And I am going to revise it!

So, here is what’s going to happen:

Details:

After all the participants are gathered, I will use random.org to match the participants up randomly. I will then select a topic, and then you and your opponent will face off and make an emote based on the theme. You will have 1 week to make the emote, and then our judges will decide the winner of each match up.

If you win your match, you will move on to the next round, and face off another winner

Draw a character - win a 1 year subscription!

Journals / Culture / Contests

Hey everybody!

I have recently opened a small website and realized that it is lacking a really fun fictional character to represent the whole thing.

Her name is 'Blojka', she is cute, fun and kind of a brat! She also has a letter 'b' somewhere on her clothes xD

Lots of people are going to appreciate the outcome of your work so i am really looking forward to seeing what you guys can come up with!

Preferences? It can be anything, really. Anime-style, Pucca-style, Powerpuff-style, Chibi-style......

Only make sure it can be transferred to a PNG with transparent background afterward.

Good luck!

Good day, dear sir

We thoroughly looked through your application and you might be right for the job we proposed (CSS/DIV reworking). We are discussing your candidature as well as several other oDesk candidates at the moment. To finalize our decision we are kindly asking you to look at the screenshots below. What we would like to know is how long will it take for you to correct the following designs, and your hourly or fixed rate for this job.

As you can see the job is really simple.

Thank you for applying and looking forward to your answer.

OK fellaz
The contest is over. I am really happy to announce all the participants (not many eh) who had put effort into drawing a perfect little gUrl for me

Here they are:

*monkey0toe0man
~AinInu
~1loved
~anime-freak124
~SleepySiena

Well, only 5 participants. Although I am happy to announce that we (me and my programmer buddy) did find a character that blew our minds away and she will make a perfect symbol of our website. Please say hello to the winner...

~SleepySiena

Woooooooooohoooooooooo

You get the 1 year subscription just as soon as I finish typing this, man. And I would also like to talk to you about some other stuff concerning the character but maybe in private

Thank you guys for participating!

~yohko Oct 12, 2008

aw shoot i have copied some other stuff i shouldn't had... you get the general idea though

~SleepySiena Oct 12, 2008

I would type in caps and put one hundred icons in the message, but I see no need for it and so I offer you my sincere thanks.

I mean it, because, if you are going to commission me, it would be my first paid commission, and that means a lot to me and my work.

Thanks a lot!
