Double Screen Compo Voting
Okay - all entries are in and it is time for voting.
Take your time and check the pictures properly. If you like to check it on a C64, I'd recommend to turn off the volume, because music tends to alter atmosphere. Now here come the rules:
---
CHOOSE 3 FAVORITES - NO MORE - NO LESS
SEND YOUR CHOICE VIA PM TO ENTHUSI OR ME
OR BY MAIL TO << COMPO[AT SPAMSUCKS]C64PIXELS[DOT]COM >>
PLEASE DO NOT FORGET YOUR HANDLE/GROUP OR NAME
---
Deadline for voting is June 7th 2011 (know it is a long term but c64pixels-visitors are watching random)
Good luck to all contestants !

Quoting PALI more or less agree with everyone who has ever posted in this thread, really!
Yep, yep.
To repeat myself for the 2751928365th time, if people want to copy instead of making something of their own, fine, but entering the copies in a competition, not so fine.
Quoting STE'86In your opinion
In my opinion. |

Could we sum it up to this:
Pixel art competitions
- No wiring of another artist's work.
- If doing a copy, be very explicit about it and provide the reference.
- Encourage and reward originality.
Outside competitions
- Be honest about your workflow.
(And tbh, I'd love to see pixel art compos exclude copies too.) |

Agreed, if you participate too :)
Honestly, I don't mind people copying a picture and enter it in a gfx compo. If they win, unfair, lovely unfair like life. But it's the 'artist' who's copying, not the jury. I'd laugh my head of if Celtic wins. The way he cheated the audience, isn't that worth a prize? |

Well, before enterring i asked veto's permission and told him about how i made it. Also i have provided the original pic to mermaid so she could make the 1x1 animation to show Dane wasn't the only one doing this. Also on c64pixels both original artist and prodeuction company was mentioned.
I was not the one posting the original pic, because i was away the weekend the pics were uploaded.
I never lied or cheated anyone, and quite take offence when people say i did.
your bad indeed :) |

It's up to you to do the things you like, don't get me wrong. Still, I feel kinda cheated (and yes, also by Dane and not sure how Digger did his picture).
The motivation for wiring might be to win, to waste some time or maybe to investigate graphics closely. |

I gotto agree on this sentiment. That's exactly how i feel about it too.
Admtted - it was allowed by the compo rules, however from an 'artist' point of view it's VERY derative, and thus feels like cheating. Eventhough it was not. |

for me it was not about competing or winning, but about creating a nice 2 screener and have fun while doing it. And supporting the awesome compo idea with some gfx.
i respect all opinions, but like i said, i dont like to be called something i am not. But i understand that in a way it may feel that way.

In fairness to Celtic as has been stated a few times on here already, his pic was tagged as "Engine House 13" from day 1 on c64pixels.
if you google that, then his pic comes up along with many other 2 screen candidates.
I have to say tho, when i first saw the pic, i thought it was derived from a cartoon frame of "Treebeard" the Ent from LOTR.
and i still think it's possible the original's inspiration was from there :)
