Well, I couldn't get any interest outside of 1 or 2 people, so this won't work.

Can you give specific size requirements that you are looking for? Are we able to get access to ur hard / kindle artwork and font(s)?

That is all. (for now)

Good questions. A friend of mine illustrated the book, but I could ask her for the fonts she used. There are no minimum or maximum size requirements.

In b4 move? Or is this another one of those things to get CCC, like if I buy the book, I get entered into the ConquerCup or can spend it on a new background or something?

No this should be stickied because it offers the chance for premiums. 2-3 full years even.
That is much more than CC offers with the 3 month ones.
hey, all i'm saying is others are giving away a full year, so you kind of look cheap

Watch out, you get banned for saying that these days.

Overall I'd posit that CC offers at least 25/30 full year premiums per year if not more, while still accounting for contingencies.
Perhaps not as much for single events overall, but it gets spread out over quite a bit

I'm not exactly certain what you mean. There's no need to buy either version of the book to participate; however, photos will be judged for thematic relevance so it might help your chance.

Though I'm a mod, this competition isn't affiliated with ConquerClub. I just thought it'd be nice to dish out premiums as prizes. Please let me know if I didn't answer your question.


In no way do I want to undermine any other competitions 8-[ I just really want to give players good incentive to participate.

Sorry, I forgot to end my post with /sarcasm. I just don't understand why this is in GD when it has nothing to do with the site other than you giving away premium.

Are multiple entries allowed? Are you looking for strictly wallpapers for desktop? I assume your site has a basic screen resolution ur planning to size it for..?
Are you also looking for banners etc, or just wallpapers?

Anyway, that's all for now. Thanks again for the answers :)

Ah, you were being sarcastic. It would've been much more helpful to me for you to have been direct with me. I can take criticism. Now that you've elucidated upon your post, I can address the problem. "How?" you ask. By converting it into a tournament: viewtopic.php?f=90&t=156824

Up to 3 entries are allowed. The submission can be a photograph as well. I'm not a photographer or graphic designer so it's difficult for me to make that distinction, but the size should be at least 700X550. Thanks for the q's.

Hi,
One last question - deadline? I know I've seen "tentative" but are you looking at a week, month+, 6 months....
Even a general idea would help give me a priority rating for other RL thj gs going on and whether or not I'm able to participate.

Cheers & looking forward to it.

Uh... does it have to be a photo? or are well done drawings acceptable?

Not sure why he used "photo", but I think any image you own will do.

I'm not going to do this for a premium, I have enough of that stuff... but if you want to negotiate a price and commission a work from me, send me a pm.
