Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* I've won 3 beginner challenges. Does this mean that I must enter as Intermediate with Advanced as my back-up level, or can beginners still be my back-up if I don't think I'm ready for advanced yet? I've only been making icons for about a month and I have no idea how to use brushes, at least aside from the standard round pack, so I don't feel very ready for advanced.
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* You don't have to enter Advanced as a backup if you are not comfortable doing so. Intermediate with the backup of Beginners is fine, no worries there. Absolutely never enter a category that makes you feel uncomfortable, it doesn't make for fun times in a challenge. Hope that helps. Brushes are tricky...I've only been using them a year and some still allude me as to what to do with them. You are not alone!
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* Challenge Break! Ladies and Gentlemen, as many of you have probably noticed, challenge entries have been way down lately. Because of this, Meg and I have decided that it's time for another challenge break. As always, we are not doing this as a punishment. We just want to give everyone a break. What you do with this break is, of course, up to you :lol: This break will last for One Month. Yes, a whole month. An exact date will be announced closer to the actual time. As always, the challenges that are currently open will be allowed to finish. Please do not start any new challenges at this time. The only challenges that will be going on will be the welcome banner challenges. Thanks for understanding!
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* Read and understood, thanks for this break....I'm sure lots of people will have the good rest they need :thumbsup:
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* Warning, stupid question ahead. So I can still put up the voting?
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* What a coincidence :lol: I was going to do my break this month!
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* Yes you can still put up the voting Hush Read and Understood. Hopefully people will be fresh and ready after to all join in
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* I have a question, does this count the Misc challenges ie the misc icon challenge and the lims?
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* As those challenges aren't in our forum, we really have no say over them, so no, it doesn't include the Misc challenges.
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* Question The break started at July 28, so we still have 6 days of break, right? You know, I'm kinda missing the challenges :alienblush:
Re: The Challenge Guide Thread *Updated Feb 14/09* Oh my goodness, is the month almost up already? :lol: Kat and I will let you know when you can start posting challenges again. Soon, I promise!
