~*~The Smogon Weekly Spriting Contest~*~
Because random symbols can make anything look better ![]() Officially approved by Firestorm and Doomsday Banner by Dragonknight08 Welcome one, welcome all to the one and only Smogon WSC! A Spiritng Contest (And Possibly an Art Contest if we can be bothered to make one) for all you aspiring digital artists to compete and improve your abilities. Week 4 This Week's Theme: Disguises Theme Suggester: Chaos669 Description: Disguise one Pokemon as another. Pretty basic concept, but with lots of room for creativity! Here's an example: ![]() 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 touchups 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: Ninjabait, Teh_1337ness, Chaos669, TVboy Canti, and Mordock. Deadline The deadline is September 25, 2009 at 4:00PM 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, ribbon, or trophy. This week's first prize is my lovely Dunsparce (my favourite Pokemon)! ![]() Dunsparce|Modest|Serene Grace IVs: 31|31|31|31|31|31 EVs: 144 HP|36 Def|252 Sp.Atk|76 Sp.Def Caught on April 12 (my birthday!) 2049 Available UT at level 18 and EV trained at level 24 This week's second prize is my Jynx, Aunt Jemima! |Jynx - AuntJemima|Timid|Forewarn IVs: 31|3|30|30|30|30 HP FIGHTING 70 EVs: 4 HP|252 Sp.Atk|252 Spe Caught on Christmas of 2066 at Snowpoint Temple!

Thanks Ninjabait, made the corrections.
Congrats to Atyroki for first, Brutal Satyr for second, Estranged for most original, and Fuzzberry for most humorous! Poll for Week 4 will be up after I receive all the judges' nominations. Added prizes this week!

Very nice Chaos, very nice. The prizes are amazing and it looks nice.
One thing I came up with yesterday that I forgot: You may want to put somewhere in the rules that repeatedly asking stupid questions and pestering judges can get you temporary bans from the WSC. |

Shedinja wanted to get into OU so much he disguised himself as his evil, speedy twin!
![]() This is my first disguise so go easy :O Not like I'm gonna win, but I'd actually prefer the Jynx to the Dunsparce, so would the winner get to pick? And thanks for donating! Adds more of a competitive edge >:) EDIT: brutal satyr it isn't the best quality of sprites but it's still amazing XD Last edited by Alchemator; Sep 19th, 2009 at 5:58:53 AM. |

Shoot, I voted wrongly in the poll. Could someone help me switch my vote from XandZero2 to Darthvader317? (Was fooled by the different order of sprites and names)

I have a suggestion, since I don't play pokemon on wi-fi and maybe someother people don't either. So i think the prizes for non wifiers, should be a custom title.

Chomzloh, sorry you can't switch your vote. If you tell us who you voted for and who you meant to, we can take that into account during the final count.
Mordock, that's a good idea but we'd have to run that through the mods.

Since my spriting capabilities have been shot due to someone screwing my mouse up while I wasn't home, school, and not having time to sprite, I'd like to judge for a week, if that's okay.

![]() This took a wee bit, but I'm proud of it. I had a little trouble in a few spots, the legs, the curls, and the eye, but I found away and managed to do them right. ...Except the bottom of the legs. ;_; |

I don't mind you judging next week Ailelulu, just PM the other judges to see if one of them doesn't mind subbing out.
Cool entries guys, looks like we have a lot of competition as always :). Here's my entry. It's Cloyster disguised as a Gastly. For the most part, I changed the facial expression, took out parts of the outer shell, and entirely scratched the gas. Anyway, C+C in the spriting thread please. ![]() EDIT: If you C+P it into Paint the eyes seem to be transparent (thanks Iaza xD). Let me know if this is a huge problem if you inspect it closely and I'll do my best to change it.

![]() Thought I'd keep it simple this time round (literally nothing more than a recolour,) whilst poking a bit of fun at the designers for making these two near enough identical. ;) For those who can't figure it out (admittedly its pretty tough to tell...) this is Pikachu masquerading as Minun. |
