[color=blue][size=1]I'm fifth. Oh joy. =P Ugh.. Mine sucks, so I'm probably going to be the first one eliminated. Meh. And yeah. Photobucket shrunk mine, too. ^_^;[/size][/color]

Aye, what a great starting round! I am very pleased with everyone's submissions. But I must say I like sakurasuka's the most. A wonderful job, even if it appears more whimsical than mine :) But that's what I like about it ;)

Since Ima did not post, they are the ones booted. How unfortunate. That means the five others are safe... for now.

In this round, you'll be making a shnazzy poster for the Willy Wonka movie by Tim Burton. Here is the real poster:

Don't even think about making one similar. This is where your creativity comes in. Last year's Otaku Graphica, I had the contestants make a Spider-Man 2 poster and I gave requirements (like you had to have MJ's face faded in the back or something). Not this time. Do as you please with the poster, but be sure to make it as thrilling and expressive as you can.

I will say that the poster needs to be 300 (width) by 600 (height). Make sure to include the title "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and put Tim Burton's name in there. That is all. Let's make it happen!

If you have any questions, feel free to state them here.

[CENTER][SIZE=1]Hello all. I'm afraid I'm having technical difficulties with my laptop. It won't let me get online and it won't let me do much of anything. I attempted to fix the problem, but ended up deleting my virus protection and I am afraid to get on the internet with it out of fear of losing all my graphix and all the stuff I have done in wordpad over the months.

Until I find my virus protection software or get the chance to go out and buy more disks to transfer my poster onto this computer, I am afraid I will have to withdraw from the competition. If I find it, it will be by tonight. Consider me officially dropped out by tomorrow if I haven't edited this post.

Yet again, I am sorry. This makes me quite sad T.T But you can bet on me participating next year!!![/SIZE][/CENTER]

[COLOR=DarkOrange]Looks like I'm first this round...unless sakurasuka edits hers into her post...

Hopefully you don't drop out...;__;. Antivirus programs are little brats sometimes...[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray][SIZE=1]*Prays that sakurasuka will be able to make it* Please don't drop out on us ='(

Here's mine! I'm pleased with how it came out, so I hope everyone else is also.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[size=1][color=blue]Stuie.. You [i]know[/i] I'm not pleased with mine. We're were just talking about it a minute ago. =P

Sorry to hear that sakurasuka. That really sucks. I used to have computer problems like that. They annoyed the hell outta me. Couldn't get anything done on it for days.. Hopefully that won't happen to you! ^_^;;

Here's mine. It sucks, but I don't want to not post. >_<

[center][size]This will be short and sweet since my internet is acting up and I therefore don't want to be kicked offline before I've had my chance to post.

(****, photobucket resized it again! This is just a load of crap if you ask me...)

Horrible, I know. Not much I can do about that, it was thrown together very quickly on my little brother's comp. Hope I don't get kicked out, but it would be better than having to disqualify myself! (This is the worst thus far, at least. I will probably lose this round anyhow, but if I'm going down, I'm going down kicking and screaming! Hell yeah!!)[/size][/center]

[SIZE=1]I'm glad you could make it, sakurasuka.

Anyway, for my picture I kinda figured that posters don't always need to be jazzy and psychadelic with flashy stuff. Sometimes it's nice to have something plain and easy on the eyes. Hehe. So, without further ado, the work I cooked up under pressure!

Bam. I'm glad that's posted. *sigh of relief*[/SIZE]

Well, folks, for the first time this competition, I must remove a competitor. Hard choice, but I'm afraid Ozymandius Jones will be leaving us. Sorry, love.

The next round opens a new kind of job. I feel this one is incredibly exciting! You're making a wanted poster! But not just any wanted poster--one displaying me as the evil OtakuBoards genius that I am >:^D Requirements are:

[list][*]A picture of a black mage being evil.
[*]Wanted Poster looks like it's printed on crappy old parchment
[*]Writing on it must contain "WANTED"
[*]Writing on it must contain "Dragon Warrior"
[*]Writing on it must contain "Reward: $1,000,000,000,000"
[*]Writing on it must contain reasons I'm wanted for. Use your imagination (avoid stuff over PG :P)
[*]Writing on it must contain "BEWARE: Dragon Warrior is very sexy!"
[*]Image must be 300x400
[*]Use your creativity to add any other nifty stuff to it![/list]

I hope you all have fun with this. I know I would. Here's a craptastic example for you to get an idea.

[b]Due Date:[/b] Friday

EDIT: I just noticed my poster lacks three zeroes on the reward. Don't make that mistake ;)

Kinda sucks, but I haven't enjoyed making an image this much for a long time. I thought the grafiti-thing was a nice touch... Lol ^ ^[/SIZE][/CENTER]

[SIZE=1]Yay! My Photoshop works again! It broke for a record time of nearly eight hours and gave me a stroke. No, not the tool. =p

I'm fond of my entry. It took a while, finding all the elements, but the end product makes me smile.[/SIZE]

Well, this round had some exciting results, I'll tell ye :^D I enjoyed reading. I even laughed out loud at some of the stuff said. Excellent job. Sadly, you are correct, Kitty. I have to let you go.

[center][img]http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/7987/roundfour8kf.jpg[/img][/center]

This round is fun too, in my opinion. You'll be making a logo. But not just [i]any[/i] logo. The logo for OtakuBoards' very first STRIP CLUB! Woot! I know I'll be there a lot ;^D

Requirements:
[list][*]Image can be no bigger than 500x500
[*]Must have a name for the OB Strip Club (creativity counts)
[*]Must say "Grand Opening"
[*]Add a nifty slogan
[*]The rest is up to you![/list]

Have fun with this one, you three. I know I would :P

[b]Due Date:[/b] Monday

[SIZE=1]Sadly, I must drop out of the Otaku Graphica 2005 tournament. I'm going to camp all next week, and so I can't complete any of the images for when they're due. It pisses me off, as I thought I had a decent chance of winning this, but I have to.

=_=;;[/SIZE]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1]It's to bad Retri couldn't be here. The more competition the better =P

I devoted my entire day to just this one, seemingly simple piece but I had to go through a pain staking process of finding pictures, fonts and thinking up a name and a slogan. I made it to the final three (counting if Retri hadn't dropped out ='(.)

Good luck sakurasuka! ^_^[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[CENTER][SIZE=1]Hiya.

Alright, I don't think I'll be able to finish this tonight, PSP is NOT working correctly.

Since today is the deadline, this delay might cause me to lose this contest. On the other hand, if the contest is willing to wait until tomorrow morning, I am sure it will be working by then. I'm sure Helba would not like to win by default ~_^

If not, I resign as well and Helba is our Graphica 2005 winner. Gratz!![/SIZE][/CENTER]

What a tough round to decide. This is after all the last one since Retribution had to ditch. But I must say I had fun with this and can't wait for next year. But without further ado, our Otaku Graphica Champion of 2005 is Hack Helba! Congrats, Hack. Hope you all had fun.

2005 - Hack Helba
2004 - Hittokiri Zero[/b][/center]

Until next year!
