Description: You will take 2 types of your choice and retype:



Credit goes to Ninjabait - in effect as of Week 5:

General Rules

1. All Smogon Forum Rules Apply.

2. You're not allowed to ask when the next contest will be out, or when the next poll will be up.

3. If your entry is turned down, no whining, it broke the rules, get over it.

4. Stealing artwork is prohibited. If you are found to be stealing, you will be disqualified and banned from the current WSC contest, banned for five WSCs after two instances, and permanetly banned after three instances.

5. Have a question, or want to suggest a rule or theme? Feel free to post in the current WSC or PM a judge about it.

6. You are not allowed to reserve spots. There is not a limited amount of entries, and this just clogs up the thread with postcount++ posts, which are spam, if you haven't figured.

7. This isn't a comment thread. Quoting a sprite just to say that it looks good and contributing nothing to the topic, this is counted as spam. Constructive Criticism is exceptable, however.

8. If you have a problem, take it to PM. We don't want you spamming up the topic.

9. Please don't disrupt this thread (i.e. asking stupid questions repeatedly, trolling, etc). Repeated offenses can get you temporary bans from the WSC.

Pariticipation Rules

1. All entries must fit the theme. The Theme will be specified at the top of the first post.

2. All entries should fit the size restraints. A DPPHGSS styled sprite is 80x80, a GSCRSEFRLG styled sprite is 64x64, and a RBYG styled sprite is 54x54.

3. We'd prefer if your entry has a transparent background. It is still acceptable for a white background, though, it's just not preferred. If you want to make a sprite transparent, use the programs Paint.NET, Graphics Gale, GIMP, www.iaza.com, or Adobe Photoshop. MS Paint cannot make something transparent.

4. All entries should be saved as a .png for not animated weeks, and a .gif for animated weeks. .bmp and .jpg/.jpeg distort the qualit of the image, and program exclusive files cannot be uploaded to Photobucket, Imageshack, or Tinypic.

5. As a note about editing your entries: Editing is allowed, but only in small doses, such as small touch-ups to the outline, changing the colors, or shading fixes are acceptable. Completely changing your entry is not allowed.

Judge and Voting Rules and Notes

1. If you want to be a judge, just ask - simple enough. You will become a judge if all the other judges decide so, and/or if a judge doesn't mind subbing out.

2. Judges are allowed to enter the contests, but during judging, they are not allowed to nominate themselves for a poll spot, most humorous, or most original.

3. You are not allowed to vote for yourself on the poll. Anyone caught doing this will have their entry for the poll revoked, and the next runner up in the voting to take their place.

The Current Roster of Judges is:
Pink, Teh_1337ness, Chaos669, TVboy Canti, Dragonknight! and Igor.

Deadline

The deadline is November 16, 2009 at 4:30PM EST. You have seven (7) days to get your entry in. After the deadline, judges will pick finalists, and a poll will be started over the course of 3 days to decide the winner.

Prizes

-An inclusion in the Hall of Fame, and after 1, 2, 3, or 4 wins, you will get a medal, or trophy.

[COLOR=Red][SIZE=4][SIZE=2][COLOR=Black] Details: It was very hard for us to choose a winner for this week's contest (which is why we're switching to a poll from judges). There were many creative and well done entries. It was close, but Darthvader managed to nab this week's winning spot! Congratulations!

Most original - TVboyCanti
Sprite: [IMG]http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a301/mvidmaster/th_rockicune-1.png[/IMG]

[U]Week 10 - Badassery

[/B][U]Week 11 - Extreme Wankover

[/U][B]To be decided[/B]

Just posting to say, I changed my name, so the OP is currently incorrect. its not a big deal, but it'd be easier for people to find me if they need banners made of their own.

also, I'm interested in being a judge, so sign me up somewhere! :)
 
I present...



MAGMARING! RAWR!

Rocks and flames on arms are scratched (NOT stolen from Onix... I just used his style as an example)

(Not intentionally the same fire colour as felixmartin's)
 
Time for me to get into the WSC methinks.



Grass/Steel Ursaring ftw?
Hehe that's cool but I think for the steel part, you need to do a bit more than just recolour. It just looks like grey skin atm, I'd suggest making it more steel-like... shine, blocky like Steelix, rounded like Registeel, I'm not sure.

Also, the shadowing on the arms is opposite to what it should be. I get the feeling you just flipped them without changing the shading, but considering the light source for Pokemon is top-left, you need to adjust according to that. (Currently, the shadows are where the light should be)

Edit: Looking forward to the first flying-type... has to happen sooner or later...
 
Hehe that's cool but I think for the steel part, you need to do a bit more than just recolour. It just looks like grey skin atm, I'd suggest making it more steel-like... shine, blocky like Steelix, rounded like Registeel, I'm not sure.
Well the current colours are ripped off Skarmory, which is quite metallic. I couldn't really think of anything I could take off another Pokemon that fits onto Ursaring. I originally tried Metagross and Scizor arms for it, but they failed because they couldn't connect up properly. Also, Lucario doesn't have much Steel going for it.

Ah, you're right, I completely forgot about that. D: I'll have to fix that up.

EDIT:


Look much better?
 
Yep definitely :)

I think what's making it unsteel-like are the shoulder pad thingies. If you could change them to like, shoulder blades, metal plates or something less organic, it would help I think. OR, to bring out the grass factor more, you could make them something more leafy/floral; skymin_flower already did that though, so might not be the most desirable option.

Another way to bring out the grass aspect could be changing the thorns to green so they're more cactus-like; atm they look more like a feature of the steel part.

skymin_flower, yours is equally as awesome as TanzAufDemVulkan's but I have a few suggestions here too :P

I can't quite figure out what those green bulbous things are underneath the left shoulder-leaves, and they seem really out of place. Similarly, that brown bit on the left arm. Also, the fire plus the leaf obscures the left arm too much - having only a small part of bright green visible makes it look like there's nothing connecting the hand to the shoulder. I'd suggest either making the green darker or adjusting the leaf/flame.

Edit: Ooh, I just realised, it's Breloom's tail. Took me a while haha.
 
Thanks for getting this up Mordock.

Guys, sad to say but I'm retiring from the Smogon WSC. I just have too much stuff going on to maintain judging and running it. Mordock, you or 1337 can keep running this if you want, or someone else can. Sorry guys, it's been fun while it lasted!

It's Seed Flare time.

Better? I removed Breloom's tail, and (hopefully) fixed the arm.

Love it. Definite improvement with the normal tail rather than Breloom's hanging around the back imo. Also the arm looks fine now. As long as you think it looks better too.

Awesome sprite btw. Same to Darthvader, I reckon you've out-scratched me in the rock department. On a side note, yours reminds me of the aztec level in Banjo-Tooie... good memories.

Hate this sprite, but Normal/Flying had to be done. Oh wait Ursaring was already normal :O
 
but meh, it only have normal/flying pokemons and no scratch to say: "Hey, its fighting type" like DV317`s one.

Alchemator, based on your previously made sprites i know you can do much better than this (no offense). I just dont know if is this allowed (to send a completely new submission)
