Yesterday I posted that we would have a contest and would not start it till Wednesday of this week, but we are ready to start it now. Okay, hope I get this right the first time: Contest to start now, 4/28/03 at 18:00 CST (Renderosity Time) Prizes that will be awarded: First prize (one winner) gets a CD mailed to them for every model we have on our web site as of Sunday morning 5/4/03,(including all our freebies we ever gave away). Over $1,000.00 in prizes. Second place prize (one winner) will get a CD mailed to them with their choice of any three models available on our web site as of Sunday morning (5/4/03), (including all our freebies we ever gave away). And Third place prize (two winners) is a CD that will be mailed to them of all our free models we ever gave away. Rules are as follows: 1. Only one entry per person (screen name). 2. Entry (image, scene, whatever you want to call it) must be posted in this thread. 3. Entry can not have any postwork done to it. 4. Entry can be created with the following software: Poser any version, Vue d'Esprit any version or Bryce any version. 5. Size of image (entry), only 800 X 800 pixels (so not to bog down dial up connections). 6. Image must consist of (3) of SAM'S 3D models, it is alright to use free models or bought models. 7. The theme of this image (picture, scene or whatever) is: Your interpretation of what a Spring Morning should look like. 8. No image with nudity will be excepted. 9. No image with pornographic or pornographic suggestion will be excepted. This contest will end Sunday, 5/4/03 at 14:30 CST (Renderosity Time), after this time no more entries will be excepted. We have chosen 3 impartial judges from our staff, not including Mike or myself. You probably do not know them, but they handle alot of our paper work. They are NOT involved with Computer Generated Images or any kind of art at all, except for what they see Mike and I create. You will have to please them. You agree to these terms as soon as you submit an image. Okay, hope I got this right. Please if you have any questions, ask in this thread so we don't bog down any other forums, or you can IM me. Good luck to you all, you don't have much time, but I trust your work and am sure you will all do a great job. Just so you know we did it this way so that it would include the experienced user of these applications and the beginners. Again, good luck....Sharen and Mike :-) Entries will be voted on by 3 judges of our choice. The theme, you will get on Wednesday. There is no nudity or pornographic of any kind or suggestion of pornography allowed. Gotta keep it clean.
