Hey again! I am feeling so bored not waiting for entries for a contest since the Tribute Banner one ended! So, I thought, why not start up a new one! And, besides, I now love wallies! Yay wallies!

So here's the deal:

You make a wallpaper that depicts the lyrics to a song!

EXAMPLE:
Image

RULES:

1) As before mentioned, 1 entry only.
2) Must be a wallpaper (resonably sized for one)
3) Must have the lyrics on it, whether its a whole song or just a verse
4) May not just have pictures of the band/singer on it. However, you can use movies or TV shows to depict it. Try to SHOW the words and capture the mood!
4) All entries must be in by the 21st...no exceptions!

~Entrants~

Hmm...we can use pictures from a movie, right?

And could it possibly be one that we made for a different contest? (I may change my entry in that contest anyway)

What if we've made a wallpaper that fits the requirements, but was entered into another contest a while ago (as in...several months ago).

Again, I love it...but the rules are the rules... I do apologize for not making it clear the first time...i've fixed the post so it is a little more plainly written.

*laughs* I like your way of abstract thinking! However, I'm sorry. That's why this is such a challenging contest. Try thinking of a movie that might have a character in it that would depict it or try a different song. The one I made for the example, I had just been listening to the song and thought of making a wallie. Try something easy, maybe just one line or sumthin...

Sam

I'll join :)

EDIT::
so.. can i make a wallie of Haldir's death scene and put these lyrics on it:
    Sleeping is giving in,
    no matter what the time is.
    Sleeping is giving in,
    so lift those heavy eyelids.

    People say that you'll die
    faster than without water.
    But we know it's just a lie,
    scare your son, scare your daughter.

*laughs* Yes you did! Absolutely! You have complete freedom on songs, really. Just stay to the rules *hypnotizes ppl with the rules* You have creative license on how you want to depict it except for just artist piccys :-D
