But I'm willing to risk sounding positively silly for the sake of art. I can't remember ever seeing this, but if it's been done someone
please tell me! I'd like to hold my very first ever dA contest--all very well and normal, right? Nope, and this is where I might sound silly: my idea is that, for said contest, the contestants will have to choose from 3 or 4 "stock kits". These "kits" will consist of one or two model stocks (depending on what type of kit it is), a couple of choices of background images, a couple of objects, brushes, and some textures. The contestant will then use
only these stock images to create whatever comes into their very talented minds--be it a manipulation, a digital mix, or a painting using the stock for reference. I figure it's different than most contest rules in that everything is already provided for the artist. Any thoughts/suggestions/flaming comments about my mother's morality being questionable due to the way I turned out are welcome! I'm just curious to see if this sounds reasonable to any of you experienced contest-holders out there who might see this journal. I kind of hate giving away the proposed "theme" of a contest, but I'd hate to do all the work in holding a contest that everyone thought was ludicrous!
Please let me know what you think!
Yes, everyone loves stock rules! Mine are simple:1| You don't have to ask me permission to use any photo I upload here. If I didn't want you to use these photos, I wouldn't have created this stock account and uploaded the photos in the first place!
2| Please don't use my images for anything derogatory, sleazy or racist. Nothing immoral. Seriously.
3| If you use my stock, either send me a
NOTE or
comment on the photo -- that way I can add you to my (coming soon, I swear) "People Who've Used My Stock" journal!
5| You may use any of my stock in prints--you don't need to ask. Print away!
6| Please respect me as an artist. Just because I upload photos that are free for use by dA members doesn't mean I condone taking one of my photos and claiming it's your own. Don't steal, because it's wrong and it makes you a loser. Biiiiiiiiig loser. That title doesn't go away easily, my friends.
