I've bin visiting graphic forum almost everyday,
but i ain't seen anything dat has thrown me off balance,
i mean, i ain't trying 2 say guys here ain't creative enuff,
but d challenge/competition and drive ain't here,
thanks

i take that as a insult, i don't know the heck u having challenge with, if you have any challenge on graphics, i know we have best heads in here that can pull of your head and put them into drawings, i can see u new to this forum. so don't know what to tell ya !.

yeah you have GUTS coming here and insulting all of us graphics artists. if you can send something you did and we're impressed we will calm down ELSE we'll start flaming you.

You n00b.
peace

hey graphic dudes.
misunderstanding me wuld do none of us good.
i ain't gat challenge with no one.
Graphic forum shuld be smoking hot. but sorry it ain't
if u say i'm nu here, den u shuld check properly.

dis Graphic forum's suppose 2 be better of dan what we have now
everybody has his own opinion, dis is mine.
sorry my own opinion affected you.
The name is Justin. i live/work in Lagos.
Thanks

u know what justin, why dont you throw up a challenge n lets see what ppl are made off. that shuld be fun.

Whats up kaspa? how's work man?, so who's gonna bring up a graphic challange?, somebody better do, or else i'm going to unleash some wild idea that'll scare some chaps away!.

go on i dare you. u'll see wat the graphics people are made up of

I propose we start a battle, it can come in any form. Be it logo,animatiom,3d rendering, etc. So i for my part will like the firt poster to kick the ball first. In that way the section will be filled up with grafix just like he wanted. Or what do u all think?

No disrespect in here pls.

Alright. by the way b4 ya'll start, i think there should be rules and stuff, like what date the challenge starts and ends, max number of works to be posted by each person. etc. and, who's actually starting this?

I think there should also be stuff like image size or pixels.
Like 76gpi max or more or even less.
How cool will that be?

Ok, here it is, , the theme of the challange is titled "Alien Lagos", you are to download the image in this link

http://students.som.yale.edu/sigs/bba/TripPhotos/Downtown%20Lagos.JPG

its a picture taken across a bridge.

The output image should contain the following,

1' space ships crashed into the buildings
2' a man standing from the bridge watching the crash
3' lots of broken down buildings, angry skies, smoke & explosions

Add whatever you want to add, but the endpoint should be a gore looking scene.

submission is before, the end of this month, i'm in too.

I bet you know what i mean.
Now, who's running ??

Do we all accept the challenge ?
If yes,then let the game begin.

hey dudes,
i'm game, with wilson haze's concept.
lets rumble,
i want 2 plead for an xtension 2 like first or second week
of next month.
my job is freaking 2 demanding.
both night/day.
y'll are graphic artist, you know how it is.
so if you're game.
post a message 2 confirm you're,
for me, I'm in.

if kaspa says yes, no le le cos he started the thread.

wilsonhaze,
Nice idea, it we really push people 2 work. But i think the deadline is short been the first challenge. I will try my hands on it

Been long i posted anything here, but because the topic was interesting i decided to participate,
So, no probs, i have extended the deadline, to the 2nd week of june.

But that don't mean that you should beg for more time after that.

Your work will be graded as follows

1. Tight!
2. Wack!
3. Very Very Wack!! 100% Wack!!

THERE IS NOTHING LIKE " Your work is ok."
See you guys then.

Just a min - Who's doing the grading

hey guys, sorry to be the first to post. i really hate being in this postion. here's what i have for now (not quit finished). the lady's face was blured intensionally. ah, i might be really busy this week so i though, let me put this here for now. so, judges!

@Neptune

Well Wilsonhaze,
Here's my input! I guess everything you specified is represented including the plane-building crash, scary looking bloodshed skies, lots of flames & smoke, and oh - I even included myself in my work coveralls (I actually had to jump out of the burning danfo just before it got hit by an alien laser beam like I've never seen before!)

Hope it's scary enough!

not bad yo guys. i'll be back

Ok here it is finally, this is the image to use, submission has been extended to 2nd week of june due to the delays in upload. Its on!!

empty
