Insurmountable
Remember the days when we had contests, and they actually finished? laugh.gif


Well I would like to see this again, I hate how so many contests start and then they don't ever end. So I wanted to ask the community what contests you want to see start over again and end. In the resource center and the community center.


I would like to start making yearly lists and fill up the months for when which contests start, so the staff knows what contests are going on along with the community and when. It would also get more people here possibly to know what contests are happening and when they are. Also it will give staff plenty of time to get ready and find judges for each contests.

Icon contest for the RC.

lol.

I'd be more than happy to start a new CBNTM, how long do those generally take Tung? And do you have a month when you would possibly like to see this contests take place?
Aberisk
^ dont we already have both?
Lariat
Yes. We have both of them, but both have not finished, nor restarted.. we are trying to make things a little more organized
Aberisk
oo, wow first tung, now thomas, lol and I can barely see anyones member group either, and I thought kyrogenix's profiel was bad, lol my eyes are going to have a seisure
Just_Dream
Dude, Yellow and Red is like, the colors of a Vietnamese flag AND a Chinese flag. WTF. DAMN ASIANS NEED TO GTFO.


Anyways, Yea CBNTM should go in a new cycle. Michelle's not even on cB, and Yanlin's hardly here. D:
Lariat
They're also colors that supposedly make you salivate wacko.gif that's why wendy's and mcdonalds have the colors... idk though, I heard that on the radio

Insurmountable
quit spammin' my topic, I'll warn you stubborn.gif
Aberisk
what about something like best animation or show reel or like those movie clip grahics like the one in your sig insurmountable?
karmakiller
^ That would be cool. Just depends on how many people would be interested in participating.

I think avatars would be easy enough to get enough people on board shifty.gif
Aberisk
^ true avatars are much easier but if you look at the graphic submissions half of it are like avatars:] what about a new logo contest? but Jusun can choose whether to use the logos or not, but there will still be a winner, oo yea byt the way what are the incentivec?
Insurmountable
I guess we could do a logo contests, but I wouldn't guarantee it actually being replaced with the one up now. We've had that one for a very long time.

Have something as small as a icon contest again, would bring more traffic through the RC possibly.
ArjunaCapulong
Best Caption Contest, Photography Contest, Art Contest, IMO



And finish CBNTM for crissake. Eh, I guess I don't know what happened to it though.

I feel stupid for asking, but what's CBNTM? (Or rather, what's NTM?)

Since the CB profiles are now customizable and everything, what about a CB profile contest for the RC? I wouldn't mind layout contests for Xanga, Myspace, etc. either.
kryogenix
next top model

we kinda already have a best CB profile though the CB profile of the month thing, I think a logo contest would be awesome

SharperMyspace
Best Photo Contest
Could have "best picture of self" and "best photograph of anything"
iii
lol I wuv you Holly.
Melissa
you should definitely do more contests in the RC! (i.e. vector/vexel, colorizations, portrayal of a given theme, pixel art, type art, design, etc). i know i'd join one if i was interested and had the time.

The icon contest is a good way to get a more general based submitter demographic, since many people can do icons.

I like the idea of more complex design related contests, such as the ones Melissa mentioned. Perhaps after the icon contest, a vector one should occur.

Community based contests are really hit and miss, mostly miss from what I've seen the last year or so. I think that Arjuna has a photography one up right now.
