5

Rules edited. Sorry was still asleep when I posted.

6

*reads up the end of dinosaurs :book:

hmm :elderly:

7

Hint to UNFLUX and Monkey: Try to be creative. Don’t use the scientific ones. Creat your own version of the End of the Dinosaurs.:wink:

DJ - 800 x 300? I wish the size was more of a square than that long of a rectangle.

I just opened up 800 x 300 in photoshop - it looks pretty thin, and somewhat like some sort of a banner.

Oh well - your rules :sure:.

9

yes 800x300 does seem a little too small rite??
dunt u think is should be 800x600
itll be a lot better

10

Yes exactly…I have so many ideas and this long strip is holding it back from making landscapes and stuff…you should really change this to max 800 x 600 dj. The battle will be so much more fun and creative then.

11

I think the strip is a great idea…So we are just basically composing whatever we want (according to the theme) from whatever pictures we have then? Is that right?

mean machines sounds killer, literally

12

I hate this strip idea. I have this one pic…and I put it in the document and it only shows the clouds lol.

13

I kind of like the strip as well it is a challenge to contain yourself but still make it look good also I just wanted to tell Coppertop best of luck.

14

i dont like it one bit.
its soo hard to contain.
and soo soo (well i dunt know man but i dont like it)

15

yeah Vdaminator it is a challenge, and I will happily take it on

16

Things that are loud eh? Good theme

Thursday? Christ, could you possibly pick a worse day to have this due? :stuck_out_tongue: No time tomorrow school, then work and an exam on Thursday morning, plus one on Friday morning… blarg. This is not going to be pretty :jail:

17

Thursday I have a school dance…crap.

18

If everybody doesn’t mind then I can extend it to Saturaday at noon. Anyone dissagree?

19

Can you change the dimensions too? At least make the height a little bigger…at least 200 pixels taller?

And plus - it should be like 800 x 600 MAXIMUM. That means is someone DOES want to do 800 x 300 they can, if they choose to :).

20

Ok ok 800 x 400. No larger! I am trying to make this a challenge not make it to where everyone is happy.
