[redlion]

Lol, thats about the extent of my PS knowledge anyway, cept for this guy:

Wah! He is soo cool B) . Anyway, I'll come up with something...

[Harley]

No renders, and no text. Redlion you must have missed those two/

[.:Orange:.]

Eh! I have a bear like that! Anyway, could we have pixel art sigs?

[Dan]

No addon effects

such as? filters allowed?

And are the 1px brushes allowed?

And renders..renders = 3d program, or cut out

[redlion]

No renders, and no text. Redlion you must have missed those two/

I know. I said that the extent of my knowledge was well within his li'mits, except for that sig.

Dan: I assume filters are allowed because they came with PS.

[JackAllen]

I will once again state

Whats allowed:
Filter: default adobe, artistic - digi'marc, if it was there when you installed it then its allowed.
Brushes: round brush only,you can adjust the settings however.
Mspaint: youre allowed to use all features of the default paint program that comes with windows known as mspaint.

Whats not allowed:
Renders: any I'mage that was not made completely by you.
becausetom Brushes: any brush besides round brush.
Add Ons: any feature, filter, effect, brush, etc that is not included withen the basic adobe photoshop package.

I hope this has defined the rules clearly,
And good luck to you all

Heres my entry, and I only used the brushes that came with ps, so u can't say I cheated.

[Hanneh]

I use PSP =[

[JackAllen]

Hanneh I'm afraid since I lack familiarity with Paintshop, I wouldnt be able to set fair li'mits for you. Perhaps after this competition has ended there will be one for psp people like yourself. As for XBullets post, very good start. The contest ends in four days and there is no li'mit to the amount of work you may submit, it will be judged as a whole and the more provided the more acurate your ability will be represented.

Pyke or myself may ask to have any submissions broken down and explained how they were created. This is si'mply to insure everyone plays fair, and will not be a normal requirement. This is only under rare cicumstances and it will be done in private to insure no disrespect is given to your name, nor any special style you used is made public.

No need euphoria, I can see how it was made, it's very nice. I just had to put that there for reference to all though.
