I will use Random.org to choose the winner from the Fav list.That's all, you don't need to comment saying anything or do any other thing. C:

DESIGN AN OC CONTEST! Big prizes to be won!Hello everyone!
I don't really have a lot of OCs. But what about those which I have? I don't really like to use them when trying out new techniques or practice. Which is why I've decided to host an OC contest. The main goal is simply to create an OC for me!
This is a list of things I'd like to see in the OC: http://sta.sh/01nqhwlhdjqj
Keep in mind that this is a very long list of random things I like. Don't put all the things possible into one design, I'd rather you pick about three things which you'd like to focus on and not half of the list!
Deadline: 4th of November
Might extend it on request or if I have something which might come up at the time. Keep in mind that it's summer now and you might have more free time now than in autumn.
Rules and other things you should read before making an entry

You may enter as many times as you want but you can place

500 Point Giveaway! OPEN!So I recently came into some points and I don't really have much I want to do with them, so I've decided to give some away! This giveaway will be pretty simple, and you don't even have to be a watcher of mine to enter (though it would be nice c; )
The rules are simple: just fav this journal!
Yep, that's it. If you fav this journal you will automatically be entered into the drawing. The winner will be chosen at random and I will award them with the 500 points!
As a note though, PLEASE don't cheat and use multiple accounts to enter, and no points/giveaway accounts will be eligible.
Like I said, you don't have to watch me, but it would be nice, and hey you never know, you might even like my art if you give it a look c;
Anyway, good luck to everyone! I will pick a winner on Friday (21st) and award them the points. The winner will be chosen with a random number generator, so there's no bias on my part.

Nightwish Contest

Journals / Culture / Contests

_{*Aelathen and I have decided to hold a digital art contest up until May 31, 2010. The theme is Nightwish.

The point of this contest is to take a Nightwish song and interpret it as you will. You do not have to actually use the lyrics in your deviation but you may. All we ask is that you put them in your Artists' Comments and entitle your entry the song that you used.

This contest is for digital art ONLY. This includes photomanipulation, 3D, paintings/airbrushing, etc. If your entry is a photomanipulation ALL stock must be credited. If either of us find that you have used stolen work we will disqualify you and report the deviation.

Artists are permitted one entry per person.

You may note me with the deviation and I will place it in a Contest Folder

Prizes!

First Place: A one year sub from =3dstage a three month sub from myself, a free commission from myself, a journal feature for three weeks in my journal, a commission from *Aelathen, a free stamp from *Aelathen, a three week feature in *Aelathen's journal,and a news article about the artist and their work, a journal feature from =dhik-a

Second Place: A free commission from myself and a two week feature in my journal. A free stamp from *Aelathen, a dedication, and a two week feature in her journal as well.

Third Place: A one week feature in my journal, a one week feature in *Aelathen's journal, and a stamp.}
