okay, i need an opinion: should i enter this on worth1000 or will i just get disqualified? it's for a ghost picture
Eth, is that the Dalai Lama? 'Cause if it is, I'm pretty sure that his current incarnation is still alive. You might get by on a technicality (previous incarnations, etc.), but you might not, too.
i just meant to post them for all here, then to have it all in one spot with the mix
it's a mix of things found here and from me
did someone set up an email for it?
bmarkey: read the rules
i can't contact the person in time, so i don't want to seem illegal appropriation
and it's an obvious political statement
so, who knows
eh, at least i got it doneish
i'll do it in the other thread
and since that image isn't finished off, i'm not gonna enter it--
two more things down--
still not what was intended
but fun
That's a nifty picture eth. Now I know why you wanted the link to the billboard site! I'm checking out the contests right now - the ghost one is a cool idea. I like how they ruled out humor.
I suspect that the rule about not using material you don't have legal rights to gets bent fairly often, but I think you made the right choice. And yes, that's a very cool image you've put together there.
ethylene, yours is tre cool...but wow, what competition for that contest. Man, some of those entries are just heartbreaking. "Poor Caroline" made me teary...and despite my dislike for his politics, the one with Ron and Nancy at the lake was stunningly emotional. Also...Brando...has there ever been anything as cool as Brando?
