[center][size=5]Otaku[b]Boards[/b][/size] [size=10][FONT="Georgia"]Signature Of The Week[/size] [size=5]Voting | Week 007[/FONT][/size][/center] [size=1]This is the voting thread for [b]Week 007[/b], where all members of the OtakuBoards community are welcome and encouraged to join and vote for their favorite banner for the week. Voting will be taking place until [color=red][b]Friday November 21st, 2008[/color] @ 5:00 PM GMT[/b]. The next SOTW contest will begin shortly after that date. [b]A few notes before voting[/b] [list][*]We encourage you to both vote in the poll [i]and[/i] reply with a post stating who you voted for and why. In the post you can let the participant know what you liked, didn't like and in the latter case, how they could improve. For further information, please read the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=59385][i]Art Studio Basics[/i][/url] thread, on Constructive Criticism. [*]Remember, this is a banner contest. Therefor, [i]please do not vote for someone because you like the person so much[/i], but instead vote for someone because you like the banner over the other banners. [*]When voting, you're asked to also look at how well the banner fits the theme. This week's themes are [b]Heaven[/b]ly and/or [b]Luck[/b]y. Whose banner do you think resembled these themes the best?[/list] Without further ado, here are the entries for this week's Signature of the Week![/size] [center][FONT="Georgia"][size=5]SOTW [COLOR="DimGray"]Entries[/COLOR][/size][/font] [size=1] [b]Cat[/b] [IMG]http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c141/BillyIdolFan14/heavenly.jpg[/IMG] [url]http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c141/BillyIdolFan14/heavenly.jpg[/url] [b]Lrb[/b] [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=26745&d=1225932671[/img] [url]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=26745&d=1225932671[/url] [b]SaiyanPrincessX[/b] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/SaiyanPrincessX/Heavenly2.jpg[/IMG] [url]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/SaiyanPrincessX/Heavenly2.jpg[/url] [/center][/size]

[quote name='Lunox'][font=trebuchet ms][b]Nicole Kidman[/b] - Whenever someone tells me they think Nicole Kidman isn't that pretty, I rage and make them watch [i]Moulin Rouge[/i]. (...) Ewan McGregor (...) Catherine Zeta Jones [/font][/QUOTE] [size=1]I quote for truth. Plus, I just quote my post in the earlier thread:[/size] [QUOTE=Boo][center][size=1][b]Emmy Rossum[/b] [img]http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/7314/emmyrossumlr8.jpg[/img][/center] To be honest, I have never seen her in a movie yet, though I am still planning to go see Phantom of the Opera sometime soon. Wait… I did see her once. I saw The Day After Tomorrow and had no idea she was in it. I saw her being interviewed in a making the movie thing about Poseidon once upon a time ago, and thought she looked pretty. :3[/size][/QUOTE] [size=1]And well, I do not think I have acquired any secret celeb likings or anything since the last thread. :([/size]

[quote name='Rick Hunter']I suggest deviating from anime talk or theotaku related stuff. It would sorta defeat the purpose of having a separate podcast from theOtaku. Plus it may confuse people considering the podcast link you have on OB already links to theOtaku podcast. It may hurt you if you can't establish your brands difference.[/QUOTE][size=1]That was one of the main things James and I also made pretty clear for ourselves. theOtaku is certainly not what the podcast is about, and Anime is also certainly not the topic. I can well imagine it coming up several times if we have neat things to talk about, but it weighs as much as any other topic we could handle (Anything! Especially if we can get the right guests in the show), I think. We might give a shout out or something about the Otaku network, but that would pretty much be it, as far as I'm concerned. Plus, the podcast should represent OB well, because it might even reach audiences we normally would never have reached.[/size]

[size=1]Sorry to take so long... But this thread is now closed. :) I was hoping for one or two more entries, secretly, but I can't complain. Huhu.[/size]

[size=1]You silly British teenagers.[/size]

[quote name='Ace'][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]No, but I meant more like general news coverage and discussion of current events, as opposed to just straight OB talk.[/FONT][/QUOTE] [size=1]Right, that was a major part of the original plan. With OtakuBoards we can go any way. News, politics, movies, music, games, books, and everything else you can think of really, as long as it's PG. :whoops: Reviews and discussions and everything would be well able to be part of the podcast. Heck, we can make new topics based on the subjects we have in the podcast. :] [/size]

[size=1]Just put the URL between Image [IMG] tags, like this: [noparse][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k221/HaruharaK/JiggySig.png[/IMG][/noparse] And then put it into your signature. It works. :) If you want to use the on-site signature system, you have to upload the signature in the Edit Signature section of your profile. Then you just type [noparse][sigpic][/sigpic][/noparse] in your signature and the banner should appear there.[/size]

[quote name='Drizzt Do'urden']So get off here, call break up with him cry for a little bit, and get back on here and let us know how it went.[/QUOTE][size=1]And after that, remember that you should not follow most of the advices from people off the internet, regarding your own life. :whoops:[/size]

[size=1]Wow, that's a thread way from 2004. I do not think either of them still frequent OtakuBoards.com. Feel free to continue about the subject in a newly created topic! I will close this one in the meantime. :)[/size]

[size=1]I loved the crime scene one. :3 Quite good stuff there. Maybe we should scrap the Podcast and just go for a random video every month instead.[/size]

[size=1]Skype cannot find you, but anyway, my Skype nickname is [b]Ping Pong Smiley[/b], without the spaces. Don't ask about it. I don't know.[/size]

[size=1]We could even make a World for it. But yeah, the thing is coming around nicely. I never fully realised before we started recording things that all of sudden OtakuBoards will have a voice of some sort. People will not only have faces and text around them anymore, but actual vocals. Neet, no?[/size]

[size=1]Wait, but where is the monkey? I cannot find it on the picture because some weird mutated alien with a fishhead is blocking my sight. :([/size]

[size=1]... That ending almost had me "LOL" as well.[/size]

[size=1]It's about time this thread got a reply! Though honestly I do not know what to say more than "Looks good!" or something alike. Because well, it looks really good. The colouring is well done and the line art is really sharp. But well, I guess it is mainly about the texture right now anyway... I am not sure whether it really adds a lot to the picture. The texture of the wall reminds me of either liquid or marble whereas I am pretty sure you were going for metal. In that case, I think you might want to go for more linear texture instead of blobbish texture. But I would like to see any more of that comic you talk about. :3[/size]

[size=1][quote name='Kaimaster']I guess I'm not welcome here anymore cause I'm a christian.[/QUOTE] Oh crap, that means I am not welcome either. ;_; Goodbye everybody! ... Though with the amount of Christians on here we could probably start a new forum. ChristakuBoards.com anyone?[/size]

[IMG]http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/7278/ibtlxu1lb4.gif[/IMG] [quote name='Matt']Kaimaster thinks Obama = Antichrist. Thus, end of the world. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE][size=1]Sounds plausible enough. Oh sorry. I think we agreed to stop doing the above unless you add: [b][/SARCASM][/b]. Takes away all the fun. [/size]

[size=1]I will move this to the Art By Request forum, where these threads (requests) actually belong. Good luck with the request![/size]

[size=1]Okidoki, closing up the thread now![/size]

[quote name='Cat']I personally like Keith Haring work. An Activist graffiti and mural artist during the 80s and died in Feb 16, 1990. There is lots of information on him. Here is his official website in case your interested. [URL]http://www.haring.com/home.php[/URL][/QUOTE] [size=1]I second this one. Though your art teacher will love you more if you go for something Bauhaus or cubistic. You might want to check out Mondriaan or Karel Appel, as well.

[size=1]Just before you throw too much into the game, you may want to keep in mind that this thread is two months old and [b]yakiimo[/b] has not visited OtakuBoards much since then. Their last visit was at 09-20-2008. So please do not be too disappointed if you do not get any reply. [/size]
