Sorry it took so long to get back here... busy first days of the new year. I don't believe that I've ever chosen a topic for this forum's challenges, so I hope I don't disappoint... but here it goes: January's topic is... RESOLUTION ... an abstract subject which is open to the interpretation of the artist... (and fitting for the new year, I believe)... as an aid, here are a very few definitions of the word: resolution 1. The subsiding or termination of an abnormal condition, such as a fever or an inflammation. 2. The trait of being resolute; firmness of purpose 3. The fineness of detail that can be distinguished in an image, as on a video display terminal. 4. A decision to do something or to behave in a certain manner Any software may be used... 2D or 3D... post-work, imports, etc. all are allowed. Any questions?... comments?... dirty words?...

By the way, I don't take any credit for the elements in the graphic...it is more of a collage than anything else. I love the range of interpretations possible in a challenge like this. Thank you for suggesting it!

dialyn... doesn't look like many are agreeing with you one this one ;o) I've got an idea in my head... I just hope that I'll have time to get it completed... nice entries so far. :o)

Only a couple days left to get those entries in... Voting begins on Sunday Morning (the 30th).

Well worth waiting for! I am, yet again, going to have a hard time choosing. :)

Congratualations to all the participants. I'm sorry more people didn't join in but I enjoyed the ones that did. :) 1 FWTempest 2 tresamie 3 nghayward Very close, in my mind. I would have liked to voted for all of them. :)

Difficult to choose but I've finally decided 1 FWTempest 2 Dialyn 3 invidiosa
FWTempest posted Sun, 30 January 2005 at 5:24 PM

Don't be disheartened...some months are like that. It was an interesting challenge ... no fault of yours that more people didn't turn out.

This was a fun challenge! The only thing that seems to help to get a large turnout is to go to every forum and challenge the members to defend their chosen software, LOL! It was hard to make choices again, but here are mine: 1 dialyn (3 points) 2 FWTempest (2 points) 3 invidiosa (1 point)

I wish there was an easier way to post on the forums other than posting to each one separately. I bet Lillian would announce the challenge in the newsletter if Rimrunner asked her sweetly. :) I don't know if that would help or not.

First off, so very sorry for being so far behind. Been one heck of a week. Since we'll be getting a late start on this, we'll go from the 15th to the 25th of March. That will give you a couple extra days to work on things. :) So... now there is the matter of who actually gets to pick this... and here we go. 3rd Place - with 2 points: invidiosa 2nd place - tied with 3 points: Tresamie nghayward And... tied for 1st place, with 8 points each: FWTempest dialyn Now... since we have a tie once again... we have a few options on how to handle this: Do two challenges. Both collaborate on the theme. Or I just pick one or the other to be the winner. Myself, I like the collaboration. :) Thoughts?

That's a very nice way to start the day. Thank you so much, everyone. I'm sorry more people didn't participate, but I really appreciate the good company I'm in. :)
FWTempest posted Sun, 06 February 2005 at 9:52 AM
I agree with dialyn... and defer to her for choosing next month's theme, since I chose this past month... and, I may be too busy with reality to participate in the coming weeks, though I intend to try.
