Culinary Creations: Still Life Photography Contest
-Culinary Creations-
Still Life Food Photography Contest
Still life photography usually involves a set up - planning and careful execution of a shot. Food photography in particular takes a lot of preparation and the time to make a dish or an item of food aesthetically pleasing. So I thought it was about time we had a contest involving all elements! Your challenge is to create a brand shiny new Still Life Photography piece that features Food. Now the catch is you must be creative with the food. Entries will be considered carefully and if you are taking photos of food that someone else has made, then you need to step up the mark and make it as unique as possible. If you made the creation yourself, give us a brief idea in the description of how. Utilize the descriptions of your artwork to tell us about your photography!

Start Date: Monday 14th May
End Date: Monday

"We Miss You" Contest - IIIWhat is this?

"We Miss You" is a yearly contest held by *PutYourBraveFaceOn (:iconPutYourBraveFaceOn

and *Alligatorr (:iconAlligatorr

made for the ones dear to us that passed away. It is a tribute to those who changed our lives in one way or another; it is a message, a way of coping with our loss, of saying thanks and of expressing our deepest feelings through art; it is an unburied or unspoken secret, the song of our hearts, the unseen tear, a piece of our broken soul. It is everything you want it to be, as long as it is related to a dead person or an animal companion. I know that "dead" may seem like a harsh word and we usually try to avoid it, because it hurts too much by making it all too real, but in the past "We Miss You" Contests not all the people got the point otherwise.
Why should I do this?

You should do this, because keeping it all inside will break you eventually in more ways than you can bear. You don't hav

Contest~!! =DLAST CHANCE FOR ENTRIES!! Sorry, I meant to post a one-week heads-up but I guess I forgot about it... in any case, the deadline is April 23rd, but if you reaaaaally can't get it done by then I suppose the 24th is okay too, since I'm 12 hours ahead of y'all anyways.

No later than that, though!
Lawl, this is so random but shut up - it's past midnight and I just came back from an awesome bash (yes we do have internet in Qingdao!) buuuut I'm feeling random... so...
CONTEST TIME!
THEME: WHEN LOVE WAS STILL ALIVE
You will create any kind of deviation - be it digital, traditional, poetry, prose, sculpture, etc. - centered around the theme "When Love Was Still Alive". Scraps are okay, as long as it's in a polished manner.

That means no unintelligible rants or scribbles on a paper - unless if it's a scribble that makes sense. I'll let you be the judge of what's contest material and what's not.

Anyways, here are some guidelines:

CSS Contest: Pure & White - EndedWhile people love to work on skins that burst with colors, it is now time to take a step back and try something new.
Not everybody feels comfortable using white, but this time it will be your challenge! Do you feel ready for it?
For this contest you have to create a new design or skin that uses white as the dominant 'color'. You are allowed to use only one additional color, but can use any shade of grey. There should be no black added to your entry either!
Only exception to this would be very small buttons and 1 smaller photo to enhance your entry.
Create something clean, fresh and pure that will enhance your own experience or those of random guests and visitors.
If you are not a coder feel free to create a design, if you know your business go ahead and create a complete skin. Choose on your own if it will be for a journal or a gallery.

Those examples do not match the description above 100%, but they should give you an idea of the contest theme and point in t
