Event id #3450 : C64GFX.com Loading Screen Compo 2024
No serious rules for this compo.
You can remake/remaster an old loading screen or create a loading screen for a game that doesn't already have one... or even for an imaginary game. NO RERELEASES - this must be new material.
Acceptable formats:-
- Multicolour Bitmap
- Hires Bitmap
- PETSCII
We will split the compo into those 3 categories.
NO FLI, no interlace, no raster bars, no sprite overlays, no animation, no music. No graphical changes or enhancements at all - keep it plain.
Of course you can use an initial fade in so long as it's fairly quick (less than 5 seconds).
Voting will be done on the new C64GFX.com voting platform. You can register for that now (just hit the "register" bar at the top). Please enter your handle as your username. Votes will only county from CSDb registered users on this compo - we will confirm with all voters if needed before voting completes.
Voting will run throughout the compo and for an additional approx 2 weeks. Don't save your votes till the last minute as I will close voting sometime between 14th and 16th October (ie. you won't know exactly when).
Votes will be kept private until the voting window closes - and will BE MADE PUBLIC after that window (down/up voters beware).
We'll use the squared-average formula again to work out final results.
Have fun :-) |

And we’re done! Thanks everyone for entering and for trying out our new voting system - it seemed to work a treat :-)
I’m on holiday/vacation at the moment. I have the scores, I know who the winner is, and I’ll let you all know asap - it’s just tricky to pull it all into a TXT results thing while I’m at the beach :-) .. I’ll try but, at worst, the results will come in 3-4 days. |

And we now, as promised, present the full vote table (all votes are public): https://c64gfx.com/compo/publicvotes/3450
I'm hoping this will be drama-free and perhaps be good encouragement for CSDb to go full-public-voting :-) |

Jep, thanks for the fun compo and for pushing a public vote. It's indeed fun to see how folks are approaching it in different ways. Also nice to see my Tapper pic got some additional love despite being a out-of-compo entry. |

Hat off for making so many representations of collected data. Appreciated. Although preview of image on hover would be nice feature, so I would know what I was voting for ;-) |

P.S. you started the project as a (just another boring, although easy to navigate) gallery, but made it to respected and well thought out gfx compo platform. Thumbs up. Respect & keep up the good work. |

The voting page had all the pics fully visible. It’s just this public-results page that doesn’t. I could definitely add hover-images - I’ll do that in the next day or two maybe, thanks for the heads-up. |

Yeah, I nearly gave up on the site early on. Glad that I didn’t now - though the distraction is affecting my demo-coding of course.
More features planned - I’ve been using the compos to help push myself to add features faster. |

Keep it up, man. It will win votewise in the long run. Lovely thing to visit and enjoy. |
