I think I can come up with a cool drawing, but is there a preferences to how we submit the artwork? Like can a hand drawn picture with a 500:250 pixel size compete against a small Windows paint picture that is 150:60 pixels?

So, other contest. I will try to come up with something if a good idea pops up.

Well I'd prefer the resolution to be decent size. At least larger than our signatures.

Okay, then I'll probably snapshot a drawing then, cause colours 3D will not make good pictures. I think I'll draw my favorite thread: Cartoons!

So the glitches with that have been fixed then? :bad:

Anyway, this is quite interesting. I can see why we should have one of these for the Tenth Anniversary, but now it seems kind of redundant. Should the subject matter be restricted to events of just the previous year?

What glitch are you referring to?


Well, it's still a good once a year thing to celebrate RPCs birthday. I think it's a nice thing to do. :)

I'm referring to when my Manipulate the Image entry disappeared days before the voting was supposed to start! :P

I guess you're right. I guess I'll try to come up with something. :)

Okay, I'm going to see this being looked into then. If you are uncomfortable about the upload feature, feel free to use an image hoster or I can check and see about it being uploaded with out worries of being lost. ;)


Awesome, that's the spirit! :mrgreen:

I'll probably try to do something like what Imco did, because I don't really have stuff here, and I'd rather paint something than only draw something. Because if I draw something, I need to add colours after that, and I can do that well only by painting right now (TL;DR : I don't have a tablet yet, and my painting stuff is in France...shiet).

I currently have all the quotes I wanted for my picture. At least 11 members will be in it and Brad will likely have three lines to match how frequently he posted there.

Yes, I couldn't find a show you very particularly favored (I may do a recheck just to be sure), but I got everyone that stopped by to comment on RD.

Being an all nighter has advantages, and A LOT of drawbacks, one of them being not favoring topics ESPECIALLY if you're hitting the "your messages" button as fast as possible...which I did, unfortunately. :fou2:

I hope you took some Shrooblord stuff: he actually got mad pretty hard during RD because he was tired as hell.

Yeah, I have shroob qoutes, so I know how to characterize him, but I have no Idea what to draw him like (Beebo44 and S.N.U. as well).

anyway after doing a crumby sketch of this angle I thought of trying, I think I'm going to need to just get some rest and look at the Simpson's couch gag for possible ways of angling everything better.

I always identify people here with either their avatar the first time I saw them, or their first sig at that moment.

Shrooblord : Mr. Dark.
beebo : dunno.

What you can do about Shroob' is drawing a Mr Dark with long, brown hair, and make him look angry and tired at the same time (the "angry eyes with rings under the eyes" trick).

Just an idea though.

gotta go sleep. It's already 2 AM here. Screw you Record Day, AINT NO SLEEP SCHEDULE WHICH IS GONNA BEAT ME!

I think the Magician Lum would be the best way to represent Shroob…
