"Attached Link: Halloween Contest Page - 3D"

Sorry if this is a totally stupid question, but can someone explain the 2D and 3D difference to me?  Once you render a 3D you have a 2D image, right?  So . . . ???  Is 2D something that's created with other than 3D software. 

For that matter, if it started as a photograph but is now a work of art that doesn't resemble photography, does it still go in the photography category?

Thanks!

no question is stupid, we do not have a cheep means to creat true 3d art so we work in 3d to creat a 2d pic of what we do. in 2d you have to redo all the work if you do not like the sean and want a differnt point of vue, in 3d you can not in 2d.  and no it becomes ART not photography, that is done only with a camera.

For the contest:

3D: Anything rendered with a 3D program. Poser..daz.. etc
2D: Should be just that actual drawn etc.

Its best to keep anything "rendered" in 3D

Same thing goes with Photo, if it is a photo then that is where it should go. But, if you can no longer tell its a photo, then 2D would be the right place.

Hope that helps! :)

Thanks for the clarification.  I do a lot of photography that doesn't end up looking like photography, and 3D that I take into software and continue to work on, so the edges become blurred.  But if it starts as a render, I'll call it 3D.  My favourite season; I hope I have time to come up with something. 

I am in, but notice that some of the items are things I already own. Will there be a choice A or B, sort of prize system? Good to know! ;)

Also I agree a Tablet would be nice! Mine is old! 

Lastly, how augmented can a 3D pic be before it crosses over into 2D territory? Can it be a combination of several elements? Say a pic with verbage in it?

Inquiring minds need to know! ;)

Its a very good question I'd like to know the answer as well.

I would have hoped that someone would have bothered to have answered by now.

I guess none keeps an eye on the Daz Studio forum here, its nice to know that we are such highly valid customers.

I'm already regretting staying with the Prime club - this just reinforces my regret.

3D is pretty simple, like I said the image must be rendered with Poser, daz etc. Post work is fine as long as the image looks like a 3D image. If it is completely painted over then we may ask you to move it to 2D.

Regarding the prizes, I'm unsure. I'll contact Kristi about that.

ThanX Kimberly!

HugZ!
