Theme LOVE


Love is the best thing that can keep you together.
- Anonymous

Love demands all, and has a right to all.
- Ludwig van Beethoven

You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.
- Amy Carmichael

Love is giving someone the power to hurt you but trusting him/her not to.
- John Albert Halili

It's better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all.
- Alfred, Lord Tennyson

More entries, more prizes!
NOTE: Prizes may be altered or added to according throughout the run of the contest.

The :star: prizes below indicate a number sign, #. There are real numbers assigned for these (on a notepad somewhere!) but you won't be able to see them until AFTER the contest. I've chosen random numbers for them. So for the following...
:star: # or more entries: + You can ask me ANYTHING--and I'll answer it!

If the number was, let's say, 5--then it means if there are 5 or more entries overall in the contest, you will get the Prize "you can ask me anything and I'll answer it"!



GOOD LUCK!
:heart: Cori





FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Or more like the general questions I think I'll recieve...

Q: Can I use the theme to expressed 'unloved' or 'lovelessness' of my original character?
A: Yes. As long as it has to do with love. You can even use something like 'revenge for love' or 'love for bunnies'.

Q: How come you need that many entries for a sticker sheet?!
A: My sticker sheets are handmade, therefore takes some hours to make an entire sheet. The process takes a long time! :< Multiply that by the categories and the winners of it per place... *dies*

Q: I'm not allowed to give out my address! Can I still enter?
A: Of course! You have two choices: 1) just join for fun and not accept prizes even after winning, or 2) you may choose to send this to a friend (deviant or irl) who can recieve your prize!

Q: The deadline is too long/short!
A: LIES! D:

Q: Can we use your original characters?
A: You may--but I rather you not. :[

Q: Can I be a judge?!
READ THE SECTION >:[

Q: How do we enter in our entries?
Note it to me, post it on my page, post it on this journal, post it on the entries journal--whatever way you can send it to me.

Q: It's not fair?! Wouldn't a flash animation entry beat other digital art entries?!
That's not true; animation entries will be graded on the basis of how well it is animated, the storyline, etc. Like the famous proverb--"A picture is worth a thousand words". :] I'd stick to non-animated flash art.

You know what amazes me most? The fact that you manage to reply to most (if not all) of the random comments that get posted on your front page. :thanks: That's truly amazing.

Thank you for dropping by my page earlier. And for sharing your artwork. It's always a treat.

Cheers! :dance:
