Musical Elements Contest -- CLOSED

Journal Entry: Fri Aug 28, 2009, 6:34 AM


My Musical Elements Contest is now closed! Thank you sooooo very, very, VERY MUCH to everyone that participated and those who donated prizes! I hope you all had a blast and it was worth your while! Without all of you, this contest would never have been so great and fun! :glomp:
My friends, family, and I will be getting together in a few days to consider and judge all the entries, so in the meantime, please visit all the contest entries to double-check that your pieces are there...and feel very free to :+favlove: the feature as well! As long as you sent your piece(s) to me via NOTE (as I clearly stated in the contest guidelines!) you and your pieces should be alright, but I'm still only human and am not immune to mistakes ^^; Also, here are some other handy-dandy links that you may revisit if you like:



Thanks so much, everyone, again! I will get back to you all with the contest results ASAP! Thank you thank you thank you! :love:

Unrestricted Stock + Contest News

Journal Entry: Thu Aug 27, 2009, 5:52 AM


According to ^LawrenceDeDark,
Unrestricted stock can be used for both personal and commercial projects, but it cannot be redistributed as stock. You are not required to obtain permission prior to using the stock off site or in DA prints. The only requirements are that the stock provider be notified and credited.

Yesterday, after much thought, I decided to make some of my stock images unrestricted. So now, you can find all my unrestricted stock here :pointr: [link]
However, please keep in mind the rest of my stock gallery is NOT necessarily UNrestricted too. So please be courteous and read/respect the rules if there are any. All unrestricted stock will be clearly stated as such via the Artist's Comments box under each deviation.

If you're searching for more unrestricted stock here on DA, there is a directory.
And here's some of my favorite unrestricted stock images:



:new: PS: *PyroDemi made a stamp out of the blue for me, which I really love --thanks so much, buddy! :love:

so :+fav: and use it if you like =)



Hello! Sooooo since quite a few of you voted that you would like/need more time with your contest entries, I decided to extend the deadline. Instead of August 22, the new deadline is August 27 11:59 PM EDT. I hope this gives those of you who are finishing up/making entries enough time and those of you who voted "LEMME SEE 'EM NOW!"...sorry, you're gonna have to be patient with me I guess ^^;
Oooh! Also, could you guys please visit this [link] and help me double-check that your entries are there? I'm 99% sure I've got them all, but there are a few of you that left comments on deviations/my frontpage and didn't put "Contest" somewhere in your note (AHEM!) and so I'm afraid there's a possibility I might've missed them and ended up not knowing it's an entry...and I don't want that! So please just let me know if I've missed your entry, thanks.


My contest is still up and running, but not for very long now! TODAY IS THE LAST DAY and YOU SHOULD BE OVERWHELMING ME WITH ENTRIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEES! The contest is now closed!

:bulletpurple: note me with a link(s)/thumb(s) to your entry(ies) and include "Contest" somewhere in the subject so I know it's a contestant
