The rules are that it has to start out as a grey scale and have a touch of color added, correct?

Otherwise It's pretty easy to make part of a picture grey scaled.

Ill look into adding a few prizes to the pool this week. If there is anyone else who wishes to add anything, please pm either me or Helio. Lis, if you want any tips on how to produce the effect given above, feel free to get in touch, i cant give you a few pointers I would love to see what you can produce.

haha love it punk XD

This is a cool idea. Is it still in the form of a sig, just using greyscale? Otherwise the best images will probably be ones that just take a normal photo and greyscale 90% of it, without needing much effort

[Strategist]

yeah it will have to be in the form of a signature and ideally would need a bit of actual modification to the original stock to make it so.

Nope, it just has to look like a color splash by the time you finish. It doesn't matter what you do in the middle.
(You can even have just a gray background and slap on a random colored anime render, but that's kind of boring...)


And it doesn't have to be completely gray-scale or a photo:

How many times do I have to teach you.... Use chat client or mail (not PM!!!) to ask for the entry #, then send few mails on Neo, pretending you are surprised the entry you voted for won, to have proof everything's legit


Now seriously- guys don't cheat, cheating is bad!
Good luck to everyone who will enter

[esotericaKoalan]

I will be making the voting thread around 2:50 PM EST (11:50 AM NST).
So if anyone else has entries, get them in before then.
