Awesome. I wish everyone luck and may the best sig maker win. Knowing that it's a sig contest and most of the sig experts haven't entered yet, I may stand a chance in this contest.

So, what will be the prize for the winner?

So is it one sig from each team or one from each team's member?

Anyway this is my favorite theme! Good luck everyone! I'm sure the rest of the participants will be able to submit a sig if they get a team together?

Dinko, I think I'm going to drop out of the tournament. You may find someone else, but I'm just not a sig person. I'm sorry.

Sleisl, I´m currently not on the best comp, and all I have here is an extremely old version of Gimp. I´ll enter, but don´t expect too much. Hope you can compensate for my lackluster material during this Sotw. Later on I´ll compensate it. >_>; Also, for the next theme, I suggest "From scratch work"- as in, program defaults, no render, no c4ds, nothing. Only you and your expertise. Also, it´s one sig per member- not collabs or anything. Aegis Remix ftw!

Collabs are usually the point of team competition. They're fun; passing a psd back and forth all night while you and your partner figure out how to make it ground-breaking is a great time :D

@Gflare, I think scratch would be a good theme, but why limit all the artist's resources? That would mean no textures, only round brushes for smudging, no-or-selfmade c4ds, etc. Wouldn't that be more trouble than it's worth? Maybe the winning team could pick the theme though ;)

Uhh... Bleh... You´re right, it´s a lil too limiting. W\e, I think I´m gonna be able to dl at least new Gimp, so a lil better. Mobile phones are cool to work with, and so are abstracts.

I think this is like the program like at my school where you go to stay at a college for a little while for educational purposes and whatnot.

I was ranked 17th in my class of 286 people in grades and attendance in my freshman year, and I hope to top it as a sophomore.

Uhh... I´m not sure the size rules are too fitting. I mean, 400 is the very least you should put as a requirement(imo).

Sure... but what's with the horrible sig size requirement?

This competition is still a work in progress. If any of you are unconvinced that a particular plan of action I've decided is the wisest, tell me so, but allow me to convince you and I promise you right here and now, no subject will ever be taboo. We only started this SOTW a few days ago, so there's always time to change the rules.
/blatant Kill Bill reference.

Same thing that I said with Frate. I appreciate comments and suggestions, but don't go and call me lazy. There were no objections with the rules at AiB and everyone seemed to like them.
