So the new deadline is 2nd of February.
I will however still post the new deadline within a short time, hopefully that one will be more ssuccessful
The reason it was hard to enter is Kawacy's artwork tends to be watermarked. Which cuts off about half of the artwork options. Whereas the other artist doesn't have a lot of artwork.
I'd recommend being more careful with your choice of artists next round.
I ran by these artists when i was searching artwork for the greatest show in the multiverse and decided to go with them as i feelt they could give folk a little inspiration. I was most likely too optimistic about that. Well well I do not care too much if some of these contests are a little less successful than others as I predicted that from the beginning.
The popularity is going to go up and down on these and I'm not trying to change that. Like it is written in the intro. these are made to make smiths find out about new artists. If I only pick the "good" ones it will limit at some point counteract the purpose.
I never said anything about quality. I stated without watermarks, which is almost a necessity.
Sorry if I presented it in such a way that it could be interpreted as such.
The second was more information for my reason to not be too strict about which artists I use, (as long as their artwork is not in general inappropriate.
No problem, I was just making sure that I got the right message across.
