Re: 10th anniversary art contest

There are a ton of submissions; I'm finding it more difficult to judge than I'd thought.

So basically you're now a bounty manager

Hopefully people won't be too offended by my attempt at giving "effort grades" via merit.

If my short experience with bounties is any reference, you're in for a surprise

What would help if all non-submission posts get deleted from the topic once the contest closes. Makes it much easier to browse through the topic and send merit.

I have another exciting idea, but I can't deal with that either.
Let me share it for those who have some knowledge of chemistry:

There's a great program called Avogadro. Molecular editor and visualization tool
You can download it here: https://avogadro.cc
You can get their tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDk3T9aD4bU

You can create specific 3D designs using elements, molecules and atoms.
I didn't have a lot of time. You can make more detailed and meaningful designs.

Been making suspected bitcoin creator. Without them, there will be no BTCitcointalk.

How would there be no bitcointalk without Dorian and Craig Wright?...

So true....

Sorry for mentioning it that way! I only assumed my claim! Sorry !

I gave you merit on this one of CSW, just because you put a lot of effort to make it. You can just change the caption to The one and only real Faketoshi. It will suit him perfectly.

BTW, congrats on being Full Member, we need more good members to rank up.

I really appreciate those 3 merits you had given me! Also thanks for recommending me a great caption on my Portrait. BTCIG THANKS

Guys, who have any predictions regarding the winners? What work did you personally like the most? Or do you think that the future winner has not yet published his art?

No one can predict who is the winner in contest.

If about reward 1-20 badges to best art. I think there are 45% Digital Art, 45% Real Art. And 10% is cake art 

Maybe you know where this badge can be used and for what purpose?

Come on now, digital art is "real" art!  It's all real art, including the cakes. Maybe you meant traditional art?  

IMO, art can be very simple or very complex in its design, but both scenarios could be great pieces of art work. I think art is best judged based on what the image says or the feelings it may create to a person and the meanings behind it which should come through to a person in the work, maybe in various ways.

Personally, I think a portion of the entries are just aimed towards Bitcoin, not entirely bitcointalk. Doesn't mean its bad art, we certainly have some talented people here, but I would have had a different thought process and design if this were a BTC anniversary art contest. All fun stuff to look at though!

Much better caption BTW!

Totally agree with you. Art has no boundaries or frames. IMHO the art is all that a person has done independently. This is a way of self-expression. It doesn't matter, in real life was created art, or in virtual.

Edit: I added music. I added voice narrations.
When you click on the works, it gives you voice narration.
I will add more artwork soon. At the end of the contest, the best ones will be here.

Yes, you say correctly, the winner has not yet completed his work and has not published, But for the anniversary I hope to have time

Hello everyone. I am Rare Designer. I have been creating art for several weeks for my participation. My question is, is it possible to add a brief explanation of the work and the reason for my participation when I publish the art? 

I would like to hear your response before posting. Thank you.

Yeah, you can include an explanation to your work within the same post as your art submission. Although, you should only discuss your art further on this thread instead of the art submission one. Plenty of users have included explanations, and descriptions alongside their submissions.

I think the OP has got the answers for his questions. This thread can be locked now as it creates confusion for new users by seeing the same topic name or the topic name can be changed.

This thread is linked in the main thread by theymos, as the location for additional discussion... why would the OP lock it??  A subject change, possibly, but it's really not that confusing.

Keep this thread clean: only post art and discuss the art posted, staying very on-topic. No "reserved" posts, please -- it only clutters the thread. See this thread for more commentary, questions/answers, and comments.

Sorry, I didn't know that it is linked to the main thread. Confusing because of the Subject name. Even I was confused while posting my art. I opened this thread to post my art and realised that it is not the main thread. A subject change would probably help!

What is the best practice to submit multiple entries? For example, I submit an entry on day 1, then if I want to submit another entry on a different day, is it better to (1) create another post and possibly add a link of the earlier entry in the new post with a new entry or (2) is it better to delete the earlier entry (if it has not received a merit) and add the art together with the new one in a new post or (3) add all entries in the first post created irrespective of when the art was submitted?

[Krislaw]

Small suggestion @theymos, it would be good to create a poll picking the top ten or twenty art works by 22 November 2019 and post it for voting. Through this even the community users can help in choosing the right winner. One who gets the increased number of votes can be rewarded as the winner of the contest.

I don't think that's a good idea because a public poll can easily be manipulated by some forum members and it will be a huge stress for Theymos to manual screening for cheaters.
Even submissions with high merit may not be considered by theymos as winner. Let Theymos decide the winner.

What is the best practice to submit multiple entries?

Better to edit same post and make an indication on each art uploaded

I made some adjustments.
Wall of winners: winning arts will be added at the end of the contest
Two new rooms added: "Economy" Room and "Alternate cryptocurrencies" Room. Two important sections of the forum.
"HODL" the door: I added a little surprise.
I added new artworks: I can add more over time.
Artist name descriptions and link.
Ambient music added
Voice narrations: When you click on the works, it gives you voice narration.

Do you have any suggestions?

I've seen a very similar picture from another participant

https://imgur.com/6qUcnHj

Seen this post from the main thread of the art contest and it's a great find by @Veleor. I guess this is plagiarism in a sense because of the idea being copied though it isn't the same drawing he just put some side dishes to look like it is his own. Is he worthy of this post made by theymos?

- If people are stealing artwork (ie. not just using stock images, but true plagiarism), leave them negative trust.
