ok, now for the THEME! dadadadunnnn. Drum roll please. The theme is "isolation" (suggested by bj0rn)

A quote from bj0rn concerning the theme of isolation
"I've been alone all this while. The only thing with me is the darkness and perhaps the shadow, if only light would appear to grant me this only company. I've lost it all, not known to life nor death, not knowing of my true self and emotions. As I pray, I hope that freedom will come and receive me one day, revealing my inner thoughts and feelings."

okay, so your job as the waller is to make a wall that contains the theme of isolation and expresses the feelings of the quote. (doesnt have to have the feeling from the quote if you dont want to, but it must have the theme of isolation)
usually isolation has only one character..but if you are able to express isolation with more than one character, then that is fine. just remember...Isolation is the main key here!

Wallpaper rules
1. all wallpapers must be 1024x768 or larger
2. The theme of isolation must be present somewhere in the wall
3. Wallpaper must not be more than 3 months old
4. Only 1 wallpaper per member

Awards
-None for this round because at the end of this round, the two losing teams will be eliminated.

THE DEADLINE FOR ALL ENTRIES IS NOVEMEBER 30, 2006. If you finish, you must send your wallpaper to YOUR TEAM CAPTAIN. DONT send it to me. your team captain will gather all the team member's walls and send it to me (got that captains?). This way we can stay all organized and i'll have all the walls for each team in one orderly PM instead of 30 watever PMs that I have to organize. Also, please share walls with your team members (and by team members, i mean people in YOUR team only, and not other people from other teams) and recieve critiques. It really helps!

NOW START WALLLING AND GO CRAZY! hopefully we wont have to give out any "most creative" awards because all the walls should be creative! try doing another style thats different from what you usually do! For example, if you only use soft colors, try harsh, dark colors...or if you usually do angels, try some other type of character. I dont recommend jumping to painting styles or vectoring though, if youve never done it before.

GOOD LUCK!

Isolation....I can do that..I live that theme >.>

i can do that too, but im not in the contest
gambatene miina-san. i wanna see your works ^^

I guess I'd better hurry off and get to work! This should be fun! (I hope?)

wow! great theme!
gambatte for everyone!

It's too bad that I have to have a job like a grown up, I'd much rather be walling! Isolation...I can think of a couple characters that fit well with that theme...

YAY....my lucky day...I actullay made a wallie of an isolated girl
just have to wait & see what my team members say about it...
well miina gambatena^_^

I wasn't notified about the choice of the group's name... Oh well, it looks nice.
Isolation? Damn, I can't use any of my on-going projects~
(Nowadays I'm only trying happy things~)
But that's okay, I'll try on! *_*

what a coincidence i have done that wallpaper 2 days ago...
one question should we upload it to minitokyo and send our entry to the captains?

@Loverdollx - yep yep!

The quote I mean...
It feels kinda hard

let's all do our best job..^_^

leave it to bjorn to select hard themes :P
best of luck guys!

wow...Ok, I can do this. I have a few ideas rattling around in this melon of mine :P

ne, i have a question...

can the wall submission be already posted here in MT or AP? or we can only upload it once the round is over? because i've taken note the rule that the wall must not be more than 2 months old.. so.. is it? o_O

just a reminder. the contest deadline is in 1 week.

December 1st
I assume the contest is already done
I wonder how the rating system will be
