This sounds decent. We havn't had animation allowed in a while though. :(

Dear God, if I see one submitted challenge piece about "Quidditch", I'm going to snap. Harry Potter fans, beware of me... |

| O.o so what exactly is the point of having no less than 32 colors? |

Originally posted by Dusty O.o so what exactly is the point of having no less than 32 colors? Maybe because thats the "Challenge". And thats what the past winner decided would be challenging for the participants. Also would you want it to be the same every week? Less than 32 colors, sized less than 200x200, no animation. If you ask me, these challenges lately (with an exception of a couple) have pretty much all been the same. Hopefully the next winner can think of something strange that really makes competitors have to think. ------------- |

I just don't exactly find having to use 32 colors challenging. Sure it's different, but that doesn't make it more fun. I was just curious anyways. |

well challenging and fun aren't the same...It just adds an extra element to the challenge...although it is a bit weird, it could easily be abused...you could make a 2 colour piece with a rainbow ball with 30 colours.

| Wow...is any one going to do this one? I'm kinda' getting scared, as I haven't seen any wips, here. I must admit, I'd hate to see a grown man cry(Adam) on Sunday. |

Well I do have one idea... Seriously thought, the only real idea I'm getting is...   And I dunno, I'd like to do something original. -------------  "pwnage comes with patience, practice and planning." ~ Jalonso

Mine is up, just in time to get thrown out of the book store I have been working in. It's a bit rough, but I'm fairly amused by it. I hope the animation shows up, it's not playing in the preview as I write this post, but it does play in the actual entry in my profile. |
