I got this idea from another forum.
The idea is to have one person as a judge for each round, and they put forth whatever the constraints to work in are, for example in the game I'm stealing from, it was desktop wallpapers specifically, and someone might say:
-It has to be 1024x768
-Have 3 elephants in it.
-Have at least one of the following:
  -A parrot
  -A cat

And there'd be a finishing date set, then whoever started that round would judge the best entry, then that entrant got to specify the constraints of the next round and judge them, and so on.

So for example, someone might say:
You have to use the following image of a flower and that's the only constraint.
They might specify more or less, differant image sizes or whatever.  Anything would be legal and entrants would be free to work within the constraints laid out.

I made a wallpaper the size of my laptop screen using the flower.  It's not the greatest, but an example.

Get the idea?  Any questions just ask.
I'll do the first one to get it started.

Deadline for this one will be Tuesday 15.

A wallpaper sized image, which size is up to you.

it has to have a lake

It has to have one of the following:
sunset
a bird
an anime or cartoon charictor


tip: use google image search in case someone hasn't reached that resource of the net http://images.google.com.au/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi

I like the idea because I love images, waterfalls and flowers being two of my favourites! More input from others please

I'm in!!
Do we send the url of our image to you?
Oh crap, I need to get fireworks somehow!!
Otherwise it will be a paint job

Also, how much do we need to alter these images??
I have started already

Googlebot is in this thread!!
make it say competition?

You can alter them as much or as little as you want within the constraints of what's laid out by the person who's judging the round.
For example, in this one, if you found a picture that was simply a lake with a parrot, and didn't alter it at all, it would qualify.
It might not impress the judge but it would qualify.
If you had a picture of a lake, added an anime charactor, a flute, snoop dog, and some other unrelated thing, it would also qualify.

I think it's better just to post a submission in the thread.  Some people are going to be better than others, but it's always fun to play even if
you're using paint and you suck anyway, and everyone else is good and has photoshop.  I really sucked bad at this when I started
elsewhere.  I'm still not very good, but it's an interesting way to kill time now and again.

I don't care if someone changes the title.  I wasn't really sure what to call it, and didn't want to force people into making wallpapers
since it might be better left to the person who's going to judge to dictate that sort of thing.

This is cool.
Well, I'm not posting first I'll post last so no one can steal my genius idea mwahahaha

edit- ooh I'm almost done. Mine is.. interesting lol.

I forgot to mention.  The person who judges doesn't submit one.  Which kind of sucks
if your reason for entering is because you like making them, but so be it for now.
I won't be submitting one this round for that reason.

Dara is a hottie.  She is a thousand candles and we are but moths.

Haha, guess I automatically win then

Well I'm almost done but I think I need to add something else.

More people need to read this thread, which is why you should change the title

I found it...
have a work in progress.

Here goes....
made picture, converted to get URL code, but not sure on sizing???

Lake Okeechobee...Pretty in Pink
