Here is a screeny of my new personal favorite theme. Sorry for most of these being an png format but MS paints Jpg's quality sucks and I'm having GIMP problems.
Okay, so here is the deal. My forums have died drastically and I've been thinking of ideas to bring it's life back. It never had much life but it was breathing at one point.
Quote: "Commander and Chief and I have been brainstorming ideas for a monthly competition. Well both of us got nowhere. Out of the blue I was pacing back and forth throughout my house thinking of how much I hate my house. Then I got the idea, I'll make my own house in my game so I can have an imaginary cool house. At that moment at stopped and thought to myself "What if that was the competition? Where whoever made the most realistic and artful house could win a prize."
It's not great. But it would be interesting. These forums have drastically died lately so I've been trying to think of ways that would gather more users.
This competition could be graded on like these 3 factors:
1. Realism- Is the house realistic? Do the entities you placed belong in realistic areas? You know, that type of realism thing.
2. Artful- Is the house decorated accordingly? Or is it just a plain room with nothing in it.
3. Loading and Frame Rates speed- Are the loading times drastic and how are the Frames? All those entities might cause a big slow down.
1 and 2 would be the mainly graded parts. 3 would still be graded just not as drastic. FPSC isn't too good for that part.
You can only use 2 layers each layer only 10x10.
This is just a general thought to the community. I would still have to go about finding prize lenders and what not. If you have any suggestion or a better competition in mind, please feel free to let me know."
Now I know this isn't the greatest competition ever. So I know you guys don't think it is worth putting your prize up. I'm only asking for ONE prize lender. Whether it is high quality or low quality. Whether it costs $5 or $500. Only one winner will be declared. And that person will get the prize. I'm just trying to find someway that people will start joining the forums.
If someone will be willing to donate a prize I would like to start a different thread explaining the rules. I'm not 100% sure if this will be the competition, it's just a start. I don't want to do level design because that already takes place. Same goes for best model and best screen. So I took a different route.
I've worked very hard on these forums and I don't want it to just die. I've said it before and I'll say it again. "I'll stop at nothing to get these forums to life and used daily."
