ok, so i'm thinking it's time to flex the creative muscles of all you KMC sig makers out there who chill at this forum....

since February 14th is coming up I figure why not make a love themed sig making competition for Pirates of the Caribbean. Could be fun....Doesn't have to be shipping but has to deal with some sort of warm fuzzy feelings *Barbossa's love for apples mayhaps, or Beckett's love of explosives and making everyone his....well you know...

Da Rules:
1: Sig has to be in the standard KMC limit: 540x150

2: Has to stay in theme *those warm fuzzy feelings guys

3: Has to be submitted in this thread by Feb 7th

4: And most importantly must be original work....don't steal banners! That's bad juju...

Sigs will be judged based on how well they stay in theme; staying in the size limit; and technical and artistic skill.....

now some of you may be asking by now: what's in it for the winner?
Well I'll tell you....

....after the break....
........

............
....................

ok break over, the winner will get any sort of graphic they can think of from me.....That's pretty quality y'all...or if there's something else you can think of that doesn't involve money, I'll consider it...


ok get cracking ya'll, competition ends FEB 14th....

HAVE FUN

great idea sailor! now...one question...can we make more than one?

omg sailor your sig is AMAZING!!!!!!

beautiful!!! ....why....its almost as if you're there with him yourself lol!

Oooooo!! This sounds like fun!! I might even take a crack at it!! lol

thank you T.Marie *missed you hugs*

and yes, go nuts... make as many as you feel fit

Sounds like oodles of fun, I can't wait to enter!!!

yay!!! more than 1 lets go crazy broadway style! lmao

Okay here's my question: How 'bout hired guns? I mean I know there's this pirate and whereas she don't work cheap she has the techknees you know to collate, intergrate and propagrate them intricate and mystifying steps to creation--I mean if it's about creativity...then I got some of that around here somewhere--it's like not being allowed to eat at the big table becos you have a disability and can't hold the right fork at the right time--is this about manipulating software or creativity--could we have two catagories--assisted siggies and solo siggies, how politically correct is that? (My techie's better than your techie--my techie's better than yours--my techie's better cos we got new software--my techie's better than yours) Gosh, sorry Mix Sailorleo--I just got this picture of my competitive nature rearing its ugly head....oops! Anyway, I don't even know who I might ask(savvy) or if they would even be able to agree to such a corruption of true art--oh, woe is me....oh, I'll ne-ver
fit in in this new brave world of Tech-nol-o-gee...okay, over my snit thanks for the time lol

one more question...lmao...can it be a love-hate relationship? lmao

Will we all get to see them? And are you the judge?

ok

Tex: *shakes head and bugs eyes out* huh, what was that, what just happened, honey what is this *lol, j/k* um....sure we can have two categories, one assistance and one solo...you just have to let me know which is which....

Trampslady: sure it can be a love hate one

and Willo:yes they'll be posted here, and yes I will judge and maybe if i can get on the sig makers good side over in the KMC sig forum, they might help too....

wheee! first entry!!

*continues starring*





Uhm...Savvy....my eyes are glued to the sig....

Awww, haha - thanks. I just got photoshop reinstalled on my comp, so I've been going crazy making siggies, icons, posters etc

I love your Jack/Rum siggy!

Not my best work, but oh well

http://i14.tinypic.com/81oy421.jpg

LMAO!!!! i find that very hilarious "guy love" couldnt have said it better meself

lmao thanks my fave of mine tho is the teague one i think

I dont have photoshop

Ka-Chow
(yes, im back in that phase again)

Yea!!!!! Roundest pumpkins in the patch--so far it's hot siggies to the left of me, hot siggies to the right of me--and even more hot diggidy damn siggies ahead.

no, not good--Miz Savvy hurt me (from lmao) with guy love--you one sick puppy hunny bunny!! Whatever might you have been thinking!?

Miz Sailorleo, who knows what just happened lmao too. I just have these great ideas only no earthly idea how to get from my brain to the little strip on the computer post. That's why I asked about assisted sigs--really just an honorary inclusion really. But thanks for being pc for me!!

Now it's off to talk to a man about a dog or something like that. Oh, I know--you got thrown off by my singing in post!! (song sung to My dog's better than yours (cos he eats Kennel Ration) Really, my singing voice, well, okay shocks most people. But I meant it in a totally smartypants way!! Thanks for the vastly amusing new thread--cos there are some cool ones out there!!

Lol, Texxy

I was actually thinking of an episode of Scrubs where Turk and J.D. talk about their "relationship",

(link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lL4L4Uv5rf0)

Sorry sailor, that was totally OT. *slaps wrist*

I'll be good from now on

*faints* Oh my stars! *faints again*

SAVVY this siggy just made me fall in love with SPARRABETH all over again!

Everyone is doing an amazing job! I fear i dont have the talent for this...lol!

Aw, thanks so much Diva! Your comment made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, lol.

I'm standing on the outside looking in and hotcha, babies--they are all fine as nails--Miz Tramps you got the wicked sense of humor going on there, uh, yep!!

What great ideas you all have and I gotta ask--when you're thinkin' of these banners--is it see the picture then you make a response to what you saw or is there an idea, some expression in and of your thoughts and then you find what you need to make the expression visual? Blows my mind on two levels--the idea and then technicals (yeah, watched a lot of figure skating growing up!). Mind boggling--I have this one picture that I found that screams for a captioned--does it matter if the picture is vertical mostly? Anyway, I just enjoy each is so compelling!!

if its pretty vertical, cant you rotate it?

I gots a new one

http://i26.tinypic.com/2m677o8.jpg

love it savvy

haha great!

Im not good at that blending thing. It's a bit hard..

I love all of them! Quite impressive! I really love the Norribeth and the Sparrbosa ones. Awesome! I wish I could make a banner. Sadly I'm not as talented as you all are.

*sigh* Unfortunately my creativity goes as far as vidding. And smashes into a wall there..

Wonderful work loves!

I might actually take a crack at this..if i can come up with a good idea

here's my first. not my best i must say. maybe i'll make another one later...

http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k258/luvsjohnny2thedeppsofmyheart/wallpaper%20avvys%20siggys/mrcottonsparrot.jpg

HAHA! I love that, Zac_Depp!

Yay, Cotton!

wheee

lovely lovely glad you picked cotton--he's so adorable.

aw thanks! oh and i know this is WAY off topic, but savvysparrowluv...love your sig!

It's pretty cool, savvy. Is the middle image Johnny from 21 Jump Street? Or is that from another movie?

Thanks!

Willo:...Oh, its from Cry-Baby. I almost went with 21 Jump Street, but I wanted an image where his bone structure looked like Spike's

Oh, I haven't heard of that. I'm going to go look it up. I don't like the hair in his face, but I don't mind looking at those eyes, or those lips, or those cheekbones.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=68fg9TlLf5k

Wow, I'm turned on and intrigued. Is this a comedy of sorts?

LOL!!!
Yeah, its a comedy-musical like thing. I'll PM you some links

Thanks! I got it.

congrats

I agree with you, sailor. Savvy's sig here is a very sharp and clean image and captures a moment of connection between Jack and Elizabeth that goes beyond their romance. They're thinking alike and are in full agreement and it's here when I think they've made their peace with each other. Good choice!

lol that and both these sigs had awesome effects

*jaw drops*

I won? GAH! *freaks out* Thank you so much, Sailor!!!! And thank you too, Willo *huggles*

dance

lol you're welcome

congrats savvy! yours is amazing! im so jealous of your talent! you're amazing!

http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l144/sailorleo1987/sslt.jpg
