AOTM #23: Guidelines
Notes:
Your piece can be as abstract as you want. When submitting, please send the quote you worked with so the AOTM can display it along with your entree. No need to embed the quote in the image, unless of course you want to. Please remember anonymity is required, so no giving names out which could be traced back to you.
Rules:
- Title of PM: AOTM #23: Casual/Advanced (delete as necessary).
- Submissions for Advanced need to have an accompanying PSD/GIMP file and all resources used. (4shared or MediaFire)
- Animation: Allowed
- Medium: Any visual art allowed. Please specify if any part of it is created solely by yourself (Photography, Self-Drawn, etc.)
- Upload your entry to: tinypic or imgur
- Anonymity is required, so do not post your piece anywhere else during the competition. This includes, but is not limited to, personal websites, Tumblr, DeviantArt, Instagram etc. Doing so will result in instant disqualification.
- List the components used in your PM, stating how you've used each.
- All entries are to be PM'd to AOTM
- Resubmissions are strictly prohibited.
General Guidelines:
All participants or those interested in the contest must go to the AOTM: Rules & Guidelines and brush up on our expectations. Users must adhere to the rules in order to participate in any of the RPG competitions. Please post any questions regarding this week's theme in this thread, or post to show general interest. If you have a question about the theme that make your entry no longer anonymous, please contact the AOTM account via PM.
As another note, be SURE to upload your submission to tinypic or imgur, and use the direct link for layouts as your submission link. Photobucket, image shack, and deviantart are NOT acceptable, for they are not anonymous methods for your entry.
There have been a few additions and changes to the 'Rules of the Month,' so be mindful of them - such as the division between Casual and Advanced. As another note, be aware that ALL Advanced entries MUST be submitted with the final piece, and a PSD / or links to the original stocks used for any graphics.
The division between Casual and Advanced is a personal choice to help ensure beginner artists are not overlooked against more advanced designers. AOTM Advanced winners are not allowed to re-enter the Casual competition; however, AOTM Casual winners have the choice to remain in Casual, or move to Advanced.
Artists, grab your camera, your sketchpad, your tablet, Photoshop, GIMP, or whatever tools you wish to use to complete your piece!

By quote do you mean by a person, or can it come from a novel, poem, lyric or so on?

Any of the above would be quite fine! Our main interest is what you pull from the quote, and how that feeds into the image. We're looking forward to the surprises you all will have in store for us, not to mention the classy quotes.

Hoping everyone is working hard on this month's entrees.
