Whens the next fanart contest?

#2 by hanako - Jan 3 2008

Don't know... they're more likely to occur after a new game coming out, or around a major holiday. I don't have a particular plan at the moment.

I was gonna ask too,but I was afraid that I'd be bothering you ^_^;;

Valentines Day is coming up! Okay it's not really a major holiday... It's more a commercial holiday made up by card manufacturers... Nevertheless it'd be nice for people to have the opportunity to enter a romantically themed contest! :]
Though saying that, it'd be nice to be given £1,000,000 but it doesn't mean it's gonna happen

Ooohh I like the idea of a contest theme for Valentine's Day. That sounds cool.

Fingers crossed :]
I s'pose if hanako's too busy, a member could hold a contest by themself...?
Okay, there'd be no prizes but at least the winner would have the satisfaction of... well... winning x]

It'd be good if everyone who'd be interested in taking part in a Valentines day themed contest would say so :]
I think the only reservation about these contests is that there's been a lack of participation! So if Hanako knew who'd be interested in joining, she'd know if it was worth putting a contest on...


To be honest, I probably wouldn't join unless it was a fanfiction contest... My scanner's being a pain and computer graphics will be the death of me >.<

If the proposed CD-copy of the game were ready for release, then a Valentine's contest with a copy as a prize would make perfect sense. But it's not, and I don't know when it will be, or if it will be.

I generally put contests around new releases because then I have an obvious thing to give away, you know? If I ran a Fatal Hearts Valentines contest where the assignment was to write your favorite couple from the game going on a date, what would I give away? Anyone entering would probably already have the game. But if those CDs are released, then most people entering the contest would have the download version and not the CD version, so the CD version would make a great prize.

Aye, I take your point.

Maybe you don't have to be so generous. I'd enter just for the sake of it. Because a little healthy competition is fun ;] Prizes aren't everything.
Though I see that, yes, alot of people may need a little something to entice them...

Mm. I'll try and think of something.
I s'pose if it were a fanart competition the winner could have their picture as one of the bonus wallpaper graphics on the CD version? I don't know how feasible that would be, sorry.
If not, I guess we'll all just need to be a little more patient xD

I agree, most forum competitions have got no prizes anyway. It'd just for fun! I'm in, just in case. =)

I'd join if I had the time, and it was fanfiction. . Perhaps you could do something like one of the last contests, if you decided to do one for Valentine's Day! Such as getting a free download of the game they choose. xD

Please? Art should be encouraged!

#14 by Midnighticequeen - Dec 16 2009

I think art and fanfiction should be counted. It would be nice if videos and amv would be counted as well, I think it would be interesting
