CONTEST: Create Your Own To-Do List (CLOSED)

Deadline: August 15, 2011

Theme: You've got a lot of things to do, so why not write them on an interesting to-do list? Design a creative To-Do List for your family and friends![/b]

The design can be cute, funny, strange, unnerving, and even grotesque. All I know is I am sick of all the lame To-Do List designs out there, aren't you? Lets do something about it!

Rules:
1. Only 1 submission per user
2. When August 15, 2011 12:00 AM passes, submissions are closed for the contest. I do not take late work, no matter how good you are. :)
3. Picture topics/styles are free reign. That means "no rules" for the picture itself. Yes, that means yaoi, yuri, gruesome violence, drugs, etc. is allowed

Scoring Guidelines:
Creativity: 40 points
Example: http://sclick.net/cool%20gadgets/coolest-high-tech-electronic-gadget/11/best-latest-top-new-fun-h...
- A to-do list design with a white background and a simple "Things I need to do" is just a to-do list. Make something that makes others think, laugh, and smile at the wittiness/originality.

Skill: 30 points
Example: http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/yhst-29969161445021_2168_104418
- Working with the art-style and mediums you are comfortable with will bring out your "skill" or compatibility with your topic in your lines. You can craft a to-do list, sculpt one, or paint one, as long as you show your skill.

Organization: 20 points
Example: http://www.mangofix.com/i/27034000.jpg
- I want clear space to write my notes. That is what a to-do list is for. To write on. Creativity with still a sense of organization and not random dark bubbles dead where I want to write is requested for a nerd's sanity.

Colors: 10 points
Example: http://stephaniefizer.typepad.com/.a/6a0105369682e8970c0120a96bf50c970b-320wi
- I am a bias color freak, so I want a variation of colors to not only appease me, but make your to-do list more eyecatching. These points are easy to earn. Just do not stay with black and white(on exception to certain depressing to-do list topics that require such eerie colors).

Prizes:
1rst Place:
- Full colored professional picture (this picture is top priority/will be done immediately)
- Fav Artist
- I will follow & comment all of the person's newly submitted art after winning

2nd Prize:
- Simple colored picture
- Fav Artist

3rd Prize:
- Colored chibi
- Fav Artist

Help? If you do not have any idea what type of template you will use, I have created a simple one for you to build off of (tablet will make it easier). http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/524/unled2qq.jpg

Note:
- Send contest information (whether you will enter, questions, links to entries) to either this picture or my profile.
-You can choose whether to write on your own to-do list or not!

Post any questions! If not, be lost in a void of confusion, laughter, and pointing fingers. Good Luck!

Winners:
1st Place: www.fanart-central.net/pic-809978.html
Name: _ren_tao_fan_
Creativity: 36/40
Skill: 28/30
Organization: 14/20
Colors: 10/10
Total: 88
-Excellent mastery with MSPaint in making different color gradients that span from all the way to the blue sky to the dark blue ocean. Creativity points were given most for this feat, and despite the lack of organization with too spanned out to-do list lines and minuscule space to write, it compensated with its artistic excellence.

2nd Place: www.fanart-central.net/pic-810022.html
Name: K_Pepper
Creativity: 34/40
Skill: 27.5/30
Organization: 19/20
Colors: 5/10
Total: 85.5
-Perhaps the lax rules of this unofficial to-do contest was the disadvantage of this picture, because I can almost guarantee in an official to-do list contest, it would have won at least 1st place or some significant place. Its sense of calm organization mixed with a soft monochromatic blue makes this to-do list a key choice for mature goal-setters.

3nd Place: www.fanart-central.net/pic-810322.html
Name: Aesthetic
Creativity: 35/40
Skill: 26/30
Organization: 16/20
Colors: 7.8/10
Total: 84.8
-Who cares about the norm; this to-do list is too fun for that! Despite the rocky lines, this dark/punk-like list screams the artist's personality and makes one want to party instead of making goals for the future!
Let me just say this now. It has been an honor to comment, encourage, and judge your pieces. Everyone did amazing, and you blew my mind more than once. The scores were close, and I mean close. Also, just for fun, you know how I said I would Fav Artist the 3 winners? Well, I just went and faved all the contestants, lol. So, there, everyone gets something! Thanks for the fun guys! ;)

luckylace222What?! No way! Your skill is amazing! You can color and put detail in so well! Also, your Prisma work inspires me. *__* Graphic designing can be that and more! Try your hands at something new, and see how it turns out. You have nothing to lost(except some time to eat cookies) and more to gain experience wise. ;P

This is my own personal contest and also my first one. I wanted it to be different than what people usually draw, and not just the annoying "Draw my OCs!" contest.

Yes, I GREATLY enjoyed designing my own to-do list. I would love to write on something that correctly(*sarcasm*) portrays the Circle Off Life every time I need to remind myself to buy some more milk.

Once again, I would love to see your version of a good to-do list! It would be appealing and refreshing to see from your point of view!

luckylace222P; Why thank-you little madam! I do not get those type of compliments often. Maybe once in a millennium!

I pondered on what you do for my contest if you entered it. IF YOU DO, as I said to Rubius, add so much swishy pretty colorful boys in there that my head explodes. <3

SweetxinsanityxSarahHmmm interesting. Care if it's handdrawn? xP

Imma do an OC and canon-ish checking up on to do list if that's okie. Example:

"Make sure Acheron stays out of the sprite.
Keep Xaliirekur from bribing Acheron with said Sprite to get new powers etc."

If that's not allowed I understands. xP

luckylace222Of Course it is allowed; pictures have free reign remember. Do anything creative and it will fall into the points.

Sorry for the late reply. @__@ I had to scan some pictures and stuff at the last minute.

Yeah, it can be hand drawn as well. Whatever fits your skill level/atmosphere and makes you think you've got the best chance! I cannot wait to see your entry! I love users that can connect ad love their OCs like you do!

CrazyForJapan123I'm still thinking about joining ;) Just not 100% sure. But I has a question...When you say 12AM August 15...do you mean, when the clock strikes 12:00 AM and it is officially August 15? Or do you mean all day August 15 too?? :3 [This is what screwed me over for one of the con applications I tried to send in to get a booth at an anime convention -3- ...but I guess that's what I get for last minute applications xD]

luckylace222All day August 15 12:00 AM! ;P Yep, I'm giving everyone till the end of the deadline day to turn stuff in,. There is a big chance people will procrastinate and turn the assignment- I mean entry in at the last minute. It is in our bloooodd~ xD

;A: OH YOU MUST JOIN! I would love to see your awesome submission. I was thinking, "How would Sue do this?" because I kn you are amazing in crafts and doing pictures in general, so that type of graphic knowledge would probably make you excellent in the designing to-list fields! If you are joining, I cannot wait to see our beautiful dashing entry!
