Well, King Kong was a historicly good movie...

[Foallen]

I had a hard time to take my picture with the lions... My cat kept running in the room and stealing one of Ramulus' arms. I thought it was kind of funny.

*snickers* That is funny, specially considering you have Ramulus being eaten by what are basically big cats.

Im not sure Scaleface's entry fits the discription... I could have sworn King Kong wasnt real...

Yeah, I noticed the subject later. I did this in about 5 minutes while I was cleaning the house and doing dishes.

Well king Kong was based off of teh legend of Mighty Joe Young, and might joe young(the Movie) was based on a supposed real gorilla so.... ya know maybe kong was real?

[Calenatarion]

Scaleface, your entry doesn't fit the discription indeed. Please change your entry.

Thanks

I drew a blank for the picture contest, I wanted something different, I did a little art history with a touch of the banned spirits, etc. I hope I didn't look foolish.

Not at all, but who's that under the Fallen's foot?

It's a Kiss Player's Rodimus: Syao syao. I know I should have used a barbie, but I want to keep it Transfomer related, fits the scale size I think.

not sure if i used the right angle for my entry - any opinions while uits not too late to change it?

No offense, but I think you should worry about content rather than angle, Dave. Remember that the topic is history!

[Calenatarion]

He is right MegaDave... Your entry won't be counting for the prizes. You'll have to remember that the theme is history. You know, history that actually happend.. and a dragon is pretty hard to believe.

[MegaDave]

okay fair enough i missed the mark - good luck to everyone else tho

We have moved the deadline for this contest. This means that you will be able to post your entries untill next Friday: March 16th

Reason for the different deadline is the lack of entries so far.

I also wanted to announce the following: This will be my last Photocontest as a judge. The same probably goes for Diablocon. The both of us haven't really had any time and this will continue in the future. Personally I loved to do this, but frankly I don;t have the time and I have lost my interest. Probably also because there are very little entries since 2 or 3 Photocontests.

Maybe there are any others who wish to continue the Photocontest. If so, please continue. You can PM me about this so that I can tell the rest of the staff about it.

Actually Megadave's dragon being slain is supposed to have happened in history. I can concure with that and I feel that his entry is valid. As valid as the christians being fed to lions.

I will look up the details further, but I feel St. george killing/fighting a dragon is valid. If the lions are valid so is george.

Damb the contest has ended, just as I thought of a good historical moment to do. It's moment in history that hasn't happened yet, and inspired by Nicklebacks newest hit. The Day Nobody Died. I was going to have Primus and Unicron in the back shaking hands with all the Primes and Megatrons lined up in front of them doing the same, representing all the worlds governments. With a lot of other major characters from the different series cheering, dancing, hugging represent the people of Earth. Ah, just thinking about is so moving.

Oh cool! So I still have time. Thanks.

Probably also because there are very little entries since 2 or 3 Photocontests.

Perhaps if the Photocontest was stickied in the News or had its own Feature Spotlight section on the front page until the contest ended, more people would know about it and there would be more entries.

I know I've said this before, but it just bugs me when I hear that people aren't pleased with the lack of entries.
Remember: if people don't know about the contest, they can't enter.

I'm not complaining, just curious.

How many entries should there be before the Photocontest is considered "a success?"

I hope you're not asking me, since I didn't say anything about 'successful Photocontests.' I'm just saying that there would be more participation if the Contests were better advertised (for lack of a better word).

So, is this thing still going, or are you guys in the judging phase? I got a bet with a friend of mine that I come in in the bottom 5!

[MegaDave]

t was extended till the 16th but it doesnt seem to be doing any good seeing as theres not been an entry for a week

This is exactly what I was talking about. Only those who know this thread exists and actively read it are going to know that the contest has been extended.

Please, Photocontest staff, there has to be a better way to advertise the Photocontests! Stickifying it in the News, putting it in a Spotlight on the front page, etc. I know you're getting tired of me saying this (and I'm getting tired of posting this), but if more people are going to enter, something has to be done to spread the word.

[Overcracker]

Yes, we know, and we are working on it. We've got a Mod helping us out and we are working out how to better advertise the photocontest in all forums on the site. As well as the News real on the front page and a sticky item there too. Hopefully the next one will be more widely promoted and seen.

We are beginning the judging phase for this one now. we'll Post the results, as soon as we are done.

[1337W422102]

Excellent! Sounds great. Thanks a lot, team, and good luck to all!

[Omega-1]

I recommend that you allow multiple entries per person. Maybe one entry per week.

[Redimus]

To be honest, despite my love of history, I couldnt think of anything clever for this contest. In the past ive had the ideas, I just havent had the decent camera, nor the time, to make entries.
