Whatever it is, I hope I can use that great Ivy Tails hair!!!!!!!!!
runs off to see what contest is about! GAH!!! You made it hard for us Poser newbies, but I'll see what I can do. I've never tried stuff like that before, but I'll give it a shot anyway. I sorta-kinda have an idea of what to make.....sorta, LOL Ever consider a newbie, moderate, advanced level contest? ;)

Hi all and thanks for the replies!
Mariana, what I have always enjoyed of contests and challenges is that they push you explore things you wouldn't have explored in other cases. Don't think you can't do something just because you have never done it, and even if you don't succeed I'm sure in the meanwhile you would learn many things!
Acadia, actually we decided not to accept heavy postwork exactly to help newbie rather than experienced users, there are many people that haven't yet get the hang of postwork (including me :)) and are more confident if they only need to use the most basic tools.
This contest was meant to make people explore what Poser can offer, is not that hard, it just requires some more effort for less experienced users and we decided to offer a freebie to all entrants so that everyone will have a little prize at least for their effort :).
The theme of the contest was choosen as to be rather wide to let people run their imagination widely, characters with hair and clothes floating all around would certainly convery the idea but this is not a must at all, just think about the work WIND under various aspects and I'm sure you'll come up with something original and that you can do :).
However if you have any specific questions feel free to contact me and As Shanim; meanwhile I'm going to post some example about what is considered minimal postwork for the contest, and is thus allowed, in the contest forum.
Cheers,
Siliphiel
