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 !

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 :)

Yes, and none argues about that. |

@PAL, 100% agree with you.
What this discussion is about? A new definition of digital art?
Not all of us know how to paint or sketch, but know how to make good looking pix on C64.
Come on, make some hand drawn, converted, photoshop manipulated pix or whhatever you want, BUT MAKE IT GOOD AND UNIQUE.

Boring ;) War against copying is like tilting at windmills, just don't take it too serious and everything will be fine. IMHO there is no c64 demo-scene without copies/collages by Mirage as same as without cartoons by Marmaid...i love both :) Providing the reference pictures/art is just fair to the others, as simple as that. |

About entering wired or copies in pixel art competitions.
Why does everyone forget after a few posts? |
