Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
I would also LOVE an 8bit design.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
Mine is a little bit of a retro theme, but not straight up 8-bit.
Perhaps we will switch up the extent of the contest, and do a second round where artists can attempt to improve current accepted submissions. But that will be up to Zag and Velo, ultimately.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
I really want to see some previews of the skins submitted :/ I'm sure most of the community would like to see what others have created so far. Feedback from the community couldnt hurt either.. not to take away from the judges scoring/opinion. I myself would find it interesting to see the changes the author of the skin made after the criticism of mainly the judges, but also the community.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
So do we have to be able to include effects like highlighted items or does the engine do that already? I'm not good at creating effects movies or anything so if we are supposed to have a glow around a button or a moving background I have no idea how I will do that

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
Zageron, yes or no on community previews (of perhaps the main page only?).
Next, we need to get permission from the submitters. If they don't want it posted to the public yet, we wont. Hazelle -- Awaiting Approval flashpantss -- Awaiting Approval condoct -- Awaiting Approval x_lambourghini_x -- Awaiting Approval fabledeamon -- Awaiting Approval Nytmares_R_Real -- Awaiting Approval Linkisdoomed -- Awaiting Approval null03 -- Awaiting Approval You don't have to do that for the skin samples if you can't. It is nice, but that's alright if you can't.

I've pretty much given up, there's nothing I can do past the point I'm at.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
Well... wtf happened to,
It doesn't matter what my boss wants. It doesn't matter what my supervisor wants. It doesn't matter what I want. I thought this was supposed to be for the general public, what WE want. Although, looks like the voting is over.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
It's up to the artists for this one, I give my approval to them all. (Excluding Linkisdoomed's skin. Let's keep that one less publicized.)
Edit: It's up to linkisdoomed though. I'm off until Saturday. Cya.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
So my computer got screwed over, I had to do a hard drive format, and I've lost all the Photoshop Documents I had of my skin. I did, however, email them all to Justin_ Ator. I was wondering if he could possibly forward the email back to me?

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
Of course man. Sending back now.
Edit: I'm not going to mass release the skins, but we will give you guys a one-page preview as the artists give permission to show them. Here is the main FFR page from Fabledeamon

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
You're fine. I just wanted a deadline, if it isn't met it's not the end of the world. The next wave won't be going out for a little bit, we only have one new submission so far.
Also submitters, a reminder that the scoring breakdowns can be found here: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...d.php?t=119643

Please post mine so everyone can see it. General feedback would be much appreciated. (I do realize I can't please everyone. :P )
*edit* Ok, scores are up, huh? xD. Been working on it a lot, and I think you guys will like the resubmission.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
you can post mine if you want to. Mine isn't good at all. I was just submitting to make the staff think about a Black or darken'd skin, for the people who like dark colors (I personally prefer dark colors, which is why I submitted the skin).
But, i'm currently editing the skin to something new.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
My ratings are low overall, but I don't think I'm especially strict with judgement at all.
Just honest impression, no compliment factor (probably aiming for professional quality). |

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
Which is what we are looking for, basically. Something that looks official and like it should be the face of FFR.

Re: [BW Contest] I'll Skin You Alive!
I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with that. When I look at the various reviews, I can already tell that some of the judges are clearly picking favorites. If there is a skin that may not necessarily be in your tastes, but still is good in quality, shouldn't it get a higher score regardless? By the looks of it, some of the judges (if not you then great) are obviously basing their scores on how much they like the skin rather than its overall quality. If there are no complaints about it, then how are the artists supposed to improve their submissions? They obviously can’t. Therefore, the only logical assumption would be that they just don’t like how it looks. Also, shouldn’t a skin with a larger set of pages get a higher score too? I see judges giving higher scores for a skin with only one page and a significantly lower one for a complete skin.
If I were to rate any of the skins I’ve received so far like the way I just mentioned, I would honestly give every single one of them a 1 and maybe another a 3. Why? Because “I don’t like the way it looks.” Rant over. |
