Please scroll down for the results of Round 42 and awards.
_______________________________________________________

Basic info -- recopied for reference.
+++++++++++++++++++
[x] Good day to all. This is a contest that which is very much different from all the other general contests. Only this contest, you have to be more creative with a limited amount of choices that are offered to you.

[x] The name of the game: As it is, it is called the Screencapture Contest, and as you may have noticed there are rounds to this contest meaning I will continue with contests in the same routine [with variables...well..varying. :p]

[x] Basically I will provide one or more screencaptures of various things. Whether it be Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, a picture of a book, or a landscape capture. You will then use those screencaptures to make your graphic [avatar, banner, etc.].

Rules:
- You must only use the screencaptures given to you.
- You must use them to make the required graphic (ie. Round: Avatar)
- Your entry must be a newly made entry. [Preferably with some kind of signature.]
- There will be no limit to the entries (meaning any number of people may enter), as long as it is entered by the date. Any entry given latter the date will be shown and recognized but will not be included in the judging (unless given a very good reason as to why you entered late).

[x] Judging: The voting will be public, but will be kept private. I edit posts of voters after recording votes.

[x] Awards: Either be made by me (if I have time) or I will take a volunteer to make awards. :)

Kit - I know you probably get this question a ton, and I've probably read the answer somewhere already, but I'm halfway into a banner and I can't recall. Are we allowed to use extraneous textures? Besides the screencaps?

Awesome, thanks JF. I'll continue with my banner.

Random observation: This dress she's wearing is rather unflattering in the side shots. I don't like it much.

You're welcome. :-)

Yeah, it's not the nicest dress. I'm not a fan of the "off-the-shoulder" look anyway, as usually there is waay too much flab being revealed and I'd rather see the arms and shoulders covered thank you.

The flow of it is much better in the front full-length shots, where you can see the rose (flower? Thing?) and the whole skirt, but the bodice part of it in general is really not flattering, especially from the side. And yeah, I'm willing to give strapless a chance, but I don't like it in this case :P

Anyway, here's my entry:

Hey Kit, sorry for the delay. I'm having trouble uploading stuff at the moment as my internet speed has been going haywire today, so I'll have to try again tomorrow. I'm sure it will be working by then. :-) Thanks for waiting. :hug:

Gah, this is really annoying me now. There must be something wrong with my computer as I can't see any graphics on AU and none of the uploading sites are working and other stuff isn't working either. My dad is away at the moment but will be back tomorrow evening, so I'm hoping to use his laptop.

If you don't want to wait until then, that's fine, but I thought I should let know you know what has been happening.

I hope I don't need another computer. :-(

EDIT: Yay! It worked! :boing:
