May Wallpaper Contest!

Postby Mangafanatic » Wed May 03, 2006 9:05 am

I apologize to everyone for the lack of wallpaper contest in the merry month of April. Both I and Yumie (and many of the other staffers for that matter) were completely swamped with end of the school year assignments. Because of all the mental energy which these tasks required, we had neither the time to organize a contest nor the brain power to come up with a decent theme. :lol:

So, anyways, we do plan to continue the contest! This month, to encourage all the hard working students among us to remember that the end [of school] is near, this month's theme is: SUMMER! That's right folks-- watermelons, swimming pools, fireworks, and fun! I know you guys will make some incredble walls with this theme, and I can't wait to see them! With that said, get photoshoppin' ladies and gentlemen! ^_______^

Rules:

Entries must be--

1) 1024X768. Entries of any other dimensions will be disqualified. Please, pay attention to this rule, guys. In the two wallpaper contest prior to this one, I've been depressed by the fact that I was required to disqualify some fabulous entries for being the wrong dimensions!

2) All entries must be submitted to the wallpaper contest submissions forum of the site 25th of May. That's means everyone has a little more than two weeks to create their summer-riffic masterpieces. This contest will be judge by a mystery [CAA] celebrity judge like last month.

3) All the walls must be anime/manga themed. (That means no original characters or video game characters, please.)

4) Yumie and I reserve the right to throw out walls which are completely unrelated to the theme. Don't worry about this happened too much, though. I'm basically saying that if you submit a picture of a guy standing out in the snow, you'll probably see it removed from the runnings.

5) I'm going to go ahead and say, for this contest, we're going to ask that we not have any walls with bikini clad ladies featured. I know there are plenty of decent pictures that would fall into this category, but I just don't want to have to start making judgment calls about what bikinis are acceptable and what bikinis aren't.

Thanks guys and happy walling!
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Meaning that, Mangafanatic, you probably made a typo on the resolution. You probably wanted to say 1024x768.

Ummmm. . . pretend it is! XD
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Lol. It'll take me a while to post a wall. I lost my photoshop from wiping the computer, and it takes me a while to find a theme >.>;;

Question: Umm..how do you make and post a wallpaper?
