Still.. very few entries so far... And I must confess, I am not participating this time.

..Just... very.. time consuming.

Hmmmm. No entries yet. Seems everyone's a bit shy.

I knew somebody else would have the same idea!!

You mean on the maniac maniac cover? :D
Great, then I have no excuse. Have fun at the party, tomic!

its your challenge, bro.  so most of this is up to you :P

iLKke (Level 7 Mass Murderer) at 4/3/2007 9:10:52 AM
Does the whole figure have to be illuminated from below or maybe only it's face? Like, a guy is holding a lamp or whatever. I've already started my entry, and my hands are tied until i get an answer :D

I kind of liked the april fools one better :(

hopefully I'll get around to making one for this, I've been pretty busy/lazy lately. it defenitely sounds cool.

dunno, ask sedgemonkey =)

no, i think rotating the canvas shouldn't be a problem

just checked my calender and unless i find time to do something for this challenge at the breakpoint demoparty (thus: drunk =), it seems that i can't attend my own challenge.. have to finish that other entry this week (damn, knowing the rules i should have illuminated these two guys and their car from below =)

According to the rules laid out by tomic max canvas is 320x240.  You can ask tomic if this can be varied.
