Don't know what is a graphic battle? Then read on.
A graphic battle is for graphic makers to take on tasks and battle for the winning spot. There will be a different task each week,and I promise you it will be different from the same ol' skinning competitions you have here on Blogskins. This is something fresh,and it has never been seen before on Blogskins.com
So how does it go by?
Each week,there will be a task for the members to finish. It will be different each week,and there will be a dateline to when everyone has to hand in their task. Once everyone hands in their task,yours truly will judge. The score will be posted here,and the one with the lowest score will be sent home(lol!). The battle will continue,and there will only be one winner at the end. There will,of course be some rules.
Rules
· The first,and the most important rule of all,is that all members must be able to use graphic programs. No online programs (lunapic,photobucket,piknik etc.) or Paint. (To make it easier,only Photoshop,Paint Shop and Gimp users can apply.) No,I'm not bias,but some tasks will need blending,and you can't do that on piknik,cos' of it's poor quality.
· No catfights. That means no snide comments about other people's graphics. Want to fight,don't do it here.
· No stealing. You HAVE to make your own graphics.
· Hand in your tasks on time. If not,you will be dropped out.
· I will only be accepting 10 contestants, so hurry up and fill in a form!
· Have fun! 
NO MORE JOINAGE!

I like that the whole thing brings my focus to the center,because of the light against the black background.
Great job on taking the photograph,but maybe add more textures to the image to spice it up?

I like the color combination,it's unexpected yet very unique.
However,I found that the flower brush is too sudden,so maybe you should add little by little,and then
finally the big one. (:

I like the pictures. But I don't know why,I kind of don't like the whole thing put together.
Hmm,maybe the thing it needs is brushes? Good try

Haha okay lor.
|

| |
|
| |
lol.
ah I'll try to make it easier. haha ^
|
| |
| |
|
| |
It's also 5 weeks to the end of the competition, can we have 1 or 2 double eliminations somewhere. LOL I'm so mean. But yeah, My prelims are flying down soon!
|
| |
| |
|
| |
How 'bout this? Don't extend deadlines. Those who don't submit, just disqualify them from now onwards.
And yes, you can have double elimination too... I need to focus on my studies too!!!
|
| |
| |
|
| |
BUMP!
|
| |
| |
|
| |
Wow, all of your works are amazing Nice to see how the competition's performance is going. Anyway, opinion-wise, I think a double-elimination will be good. LOL { I'm not being evil here }.
Just a passer-by audience (LOL?)

Task Four Updated!
Task Four
I'm sure you guys are familiar with stocks and brushes?
You all will have to do a 600x300 banner featuring stocks,brushes,and some text if you want.
BUT the banner should have a purple theme,so it can be a part of the brushes or stocks etc..
Remember,stocks and brushes only,no pictures of celebs or anything else.
The rest is up to you,bring out those creative juices! 
Good luck,and do your best because we are eliminating two people this week!
Task Due: 12 July 2009,Sunday
