(I don't have a sexy banner like candy-chan did, so if you wanna make one, contact me somehow and I'll put it up.)
So, our Urban Paradise contest has concluded. And since it seems that people don't want a contest, we'll do a group project instead.
The subject/theme is Anime Alphabet. Members of PoR will make painted wallpapers* from series/artists/studios that begin from each letter of the (English) alphabet** (as categorized by MT). If there's more than one entry for a letter, we can either do a vote-off, or a first-come-first-serve.
Since people want to try their hands at collabs, this aspect is included in the project as well. You may, if you choose to (but don't have to), do a collab wallpaper with another member of PoR***, and it will count as an entry for the letter the series/artist/studios begins with. Since MT doesn't allow you to upload 2 of the same wallpapers, you can decide to upload it under one person's name, or do a semi-collab, where you end up with two versions of similar wallpapers. In the semi-collab case, both wallpapers will count as entries for the letter (ie no vote-off required).
Lastly, since according to alterlier, "life is just pleasant with a simple glass of ice tea", let tea be your inspiration! Otherwise, your wallpaper can be about anything.
Entries will be put on the group page as they are entered, as text links to not clutter the page. Please link to your entries from the group guestbook.
Since this is a project and not a contest, walkthrough/tutorial is optional, although it would be very much appreciated.
This project will go until we have all entries for all 26 letters of the alphabet, or until candy-chan comes back and decides to start a new contest/project.
Hope that wasn't too confusing. If there are any questions, please ask, or post in the guestbook and we can discuss.
N.B.:
* As always, vectoring is fine, as long as most of the wallpaper is painted.
** Series can count under either the official English or Japanese name. eg: Aa! Megami-Sama can count under A or O (for
Oh My Goddess!).
- Artists' names can count under either their first or last names. eg: Yoshitaka Amano can count under Y or A.
- If the scan used is has both a series and an artist, the series name will be
used. eg: Paradise Kiss by Ai Yazawa would count under P.
- "Other", "Original", "Unknown" will not count. Unless you know the actual name if you
post under "Other".
- If you're unsure, post in guesbook, and we'll discuss
*** If the person you're collabing with is not a member of PoR yet, get them to join!
Have fun!
