Well guys here we have the first entries for the first TBCS Art Contest.

Judge them how you want, the winner will be chosen by you, so make your vote count and let the best piece win!

Artists will not be named, that way you can't pick your favorite friend ;)

I kindly ask those who entered not to vote for themselves, if you do vote for YOURSELF it will not be counted, voting for another entry is fine, i will be able to check who voted for what

The poll will run for 7 days starting today Friday 15th February


Now for the all important entries:

Pretty interesting artwork! I like them all, it took me a good couple minutes to decide actually.

The First one was the one that caught my eye in the end. For such a simple reason that it made me laugh out loud.

When I first looked at it, I thought it was a "mean monster eye! RAWR!", but after looking at it for about a minute or two more, I started to wonder how it was created. Then I realized that its not what I thought it was at all! Its actually more of a "Someone's behind me, but I'm too afraid to look..." kind of eye.

To put it more simply; First thought: Eye looking towards nose. Second thought: Eye looking toward ear. If that is still confusing, I made a little doodle to better describe what I'm thinking. Not that anyone cares mind you, but I'm bored and have nothing better to do. :)

So in the end I voted for "The Eye", because it made me think the most about how it was created. I still don't have a clue about how it was created, but it making me think is what I'm getting at. :)

Good job everyone! They were all fun and interesting to look at for sure. I actually almost voted for the mouse one, because it made me laugh. But I guess I was more in a thinking mood than a laughing mood. :)

Also, whoever did the lighting one, very pretty! I stared a good minute or two at those lighting bolts, trying to imagine what it would be like if they were actually multicolored like that. Very cool and fun to think about!

It was a close tie between #1 and #2, but I had to go with #2 in the end, just because it was awesome AND technology related (which is what the contest was for, right?).

#1 and #2 were both very good though.

I liked number 2, the colours intreagued me.. also liked the shadowed ruler and repeating backround :)

unforunitally the 3rd looks like that it got botched together in 5mins, recommend looking into the magic and backround eraser

Noopy: I knew that was yours from the start ;). You seem to like the car themes.

I have a fairly good guess as to who #2 belongs to. The other 3 leave me stumped.

I have a good idea who #2 is too. And 4. And 5. The only one that leaves me stumped is #1

I thought number one was quite wierd.. i wouldnt say it was done with the likes of photoshop, but it could be some exturnal filters used, my first reaction was wow no one did that in photoshop.. but i could be wrong

I'm sorry for not replying sooner! But we are still very busy with the new house, going to move in next week and there is still a lot of work to do!

I voted for number 4 myself, why? I looked at the designs that weren't my own and this was the one that cought my eye at first glance!

Nice work all! And I'll try to be less quiet next time ;)

congratz, I personnally vote for #1, I have a little preference on chaos but 2 is quite clean and slick :up:

BTW, #1 can easilly be made with photoshop, little liquifiy and a color edge detect over it...
