WC Skinning Contest: Christmas Edition
Ho, ho, ho...... Merry Christmas.
Sunday, November 13, 2005 by Apocalypse_67 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
After many emails inquiring about the next skinning contest, I'm in the process of putting together another community skinning contest.
This time there will be a few changes from the previous contests. The big change will be the judging method. Instead of downloads, the winners will be picked by a panel of judges.
Skins will be judged on originality, performance, style and quality. This contest will also have a chosen theme (Christmas)
I'm starting the contest with the WindowBlinds category. The 1st place winner of a Christmas WB skin will receive an OD subscription/extension.
The second place winner will receive a WinCustomize Subscription/extension.
I'm still waiting on the response of a couple of sponsors to add more prizes and perhaps more categories to compete.
As always my Email is open to sponsors that would like to contribute.
Christmas is about 6 weeks away. This should give everyone enough time to put together a nice skin.
The official announcement will be made during the week or as soon as the sponsors reply. In the mean time, open those graphic programs and get those ideas on the screen canvas

Got it and replied. If you don't receive it, there's something not right somewhere.

It seems that hot mail often puts my e-mails in the junk e-mail folder. It has happened before and was found there. Hotmail must not like dragons.

Boopish Im not sure I understand your question.
The official announcement and rules of the contest will be posted late today or tomorrow.
But one of the rules is that all work submited must be 100% original new work of the artist. No ports or modification of previous work.
The contest (so far) is only for WindowBlind skins.

I think it's in regards to the way if was done before: couldn't be posted prior to the contest (here or anywhere else). So I think (If I substitute screenshot with WB ) Boopish is asking if something already uploaded could be considered entered when the contest officially starts.

I think she has a screenshot of a blind not yet released and wants to know if it's ok to use the blind in the contest. Only she can tell us for sure. "Betty, bebop, boopish, where are you?"

All work must be new and it cannot be uploaded anywhere else until after the contest is over and winners are announced.
Only if the blind is original work of the artist and has not been release before here or any other site.
NT, I never got your email. Send it again.
I got the email BX. Thank you

I think Mormegil should update ChristmasTime with some new features.

I second that, but it would not be accepted in the contest
