    Last year at this time, cinegirl and Wyoming ran a Christmas challenge for everyone. This year, we're doing it again, only I'm taking over :) The lovely Misc mods have given me permission to invade their forum for a while, and T'Bonz has agreed to allow the same prize as last year (see below).

    So here's how this works: I want a piece of CSI: Holiday-style artwork done using only the mouse. It must include something CSI related, and something Holiday related (doesn't necessarily have to be Christmas)

    Vera did such a good job of explaining it last year that I'm just going to use her rules:

    The special rule - as mentioned: you may use ONLY the mouse!
    Don't use any screencaps, special effects or similar which you can only find in expensive graphics programs. Everybody should be able to join, so get back to Paint or whatever is pre-installed on your PC. :devil:

    Further rules:

    1. You may enter only 1 painting

    2. Please size the picture to 800x600 maximum. It's wallpaper size and should work well.

    3. No categories this time! I think when it comes to painting with the mouse we all are on the same level, more or less, that's why.

    4. Please comment here in this thread if you join - I'd like to know how many entries to expect - around 20 would be great!

    5. All entries should be sent to me, Dragonfly (yes, I've had a slight name change. Don't get confused!)

    6. Voting will be put up Saturday, December 20th. I'll give you a specific time closer to the date.

    Special "gift": the first three winners will of course achieve a winners banner, PLUS a special winners title TBonz will give out. (you know: these names under your avatars ;) )

    This is a board wide challenge, that's why we set it up in Misc. But don't bombard Ducky or Jaquie with questions, please ask myself Dragonfly.

    I just had someone ask me if using text (with the keyboard) is allowed. I thought I'd mention that in here in case anyone else is wondering:

    Yes. You may type your text. You don't have to do that part 'by hand'.

    Haha, this souns like a lots of fun, I'm in :D Though I'm sure that I've lost all my painting skills with mouse, 'cause I bought a tablet a six months ago..

    Okay, maybe I try to do something first before I say I'm definitely in :D
