I withdraw from the contest. My brother took my camera.
This sucks. I think this will turn out to be a really fun contest and I'm going to miss out. Good luck to all the other participants.

I submitted around 14 hrs ago. It looks nothing like what I intended from the start, but that's art for you.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
can`t wait to see what you guys made

I've actually been extremely impressed with most of the entries I've received so far. Admittedly that's only less than half of the total entries (so I hope everyone else has sent the rest to Assassin), but keep up the good work guys. Hurry and get those last minute submissions in!
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
I actually had a really good idea (a visual pun) for my picture, but I have no camera.
(it involves buying a bag of ice cubes)
I had no good idea and I had no idea how to really use the camera
Plus I did it at the last minute because I had no ideas >.> I'm not really a photo person.
None of my ideas worked out, but they were really good one paper. One required photoshop, another a detailed piece of equipment, and the last one a dead cat.

I just took a lot of pictures, and then asked some friends which onees they liked best >.> where I was told that two of them were creepy, because one made me look dead and the other made it look like I was being attacked.
I only entered the contest because I was told to twice in a rep thingy T_T So I don't find myself winning, when I can't use my equiptment and usually.. rely on photomanipulation to make pictures D:
Wow. Same.

Dead cat? You guys are really serious about this contest!
Likewise, I can't wait to see the photos!

There's a shitload of people who haven't sent us their entries. We're considering whether to drop them from the contest or extend the deadline for a few days.
Like, I'm talking a good quarter of the contestants.

I vote to extend the deadline and let those of us who have submitted re-submit if we like, for adjustments and fine-tuning. People are busy and giving us the weekend to come up with something would have been a better idea from the start.
Otherwise you should temp ban anyone who said they would participate but didn't, to keep them from voting in the contest, and to punish them for their insolence.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Yeah, that was my reasoning. I also don't think a lot of people have even seen the thread. Some of the people participating have limited internet access, so it would be pretty unfair to them if they didn't even have a chance to submit their entries.
I'll let everyone know how long the extension is once I get some feedback from Assassin.

Can we add text to the picture?

Still waiting on feedback from Assassin to extend the deadline. Ideally, I'd like to push it back one more week.

Well let us know if it's gonna happen or not asap Xan, i have a few more concepts i'd like to work on that i didn't have the time for in the first week.
OK, Assassin has gone AWOL for some reason or another and none of the other mods want to help with this, so I'll take the initiative here. As of today we're still missing a full 1/3 of the entries, so I'm extending the deadline to next week.
New deadline: Thursday, August 14th

Yes, I'm allowing resubmissions for all those who would like to change their first submission. For anyone who takes advantage of this, I'd like for them to include "Resubmission" as the title of their PM. Good luck.

Just out of curiosity, how many ppl haven't submitted yet xan?
he wouldnt be able to tell for sure, since some ppl send it to assassin, like me.
So when's the new deadline?
You can send PM's to multiple recipients, so Xan and Assassin can both receive it, which will be helpful in case one vanishes during the contest.
@BoC: with the new extension, will you participate? If the concept is good, even a disposable camera will be enough. If the concept is good.
