I am going to start a new thing since it is the start of a new year!
Monthly there will be a new quest for you to accomplish.
Each month the rules may change slightly to involve different talents to give a chance for everyone to win. If this month's contest isn't something you can participate in, check back next week.
Contests will generally end and begin with the months, give or take a couple days.
Prizes will generally be secunds and will vary depending on entries, but I may throw in Secundian critters, critter vouchers, or Council artifacts.

Provide Secundi with Graphics
Specifically, linking graphics. You can go beautifully detailed and artistic here, or you can design a very simple 'logo' representation of Secundi.
There are no specifications of image sizes, but multiples nicely resized for various uses are a bonus. Especially if they're correct for certain things which at this moment Garney can't think of XD
You may use any images done by the site artists and incorporate them if needed. However, your own work will provide you with a higher judging.
Judged on:
Firstly - Expression of the theme.
Secondly - Creative use of Secundi elements without simply copy and pasting existing graphics.
Lastly - Application of the graphics throughout the internet in a variety of settings.
Prize: 100,000 secunds and a custom colored Gidget
(other prizes dependent on number of entries)
Please post entries (unless specified to PM) with:
(Name of Month)

and the submission requirement

A photo (taken by myself) of Pippin and a couple of my Wobbles. Pippin is going pretty fast, but it looks like the wobble is clinging pretty well.
This is a little patch of grassy field in Secudi.

Perfect! =D
Ok, Art is one of the things i so very majorly suck at ^^ But... here is my effort anyhow.

Is a pic of my Wobble, Casanova, having a picnic ^^
I have something I'm working on but might not be able to post it until tomorrow.
Week #1
Here's a sketch of Kestral the Gidget's retaliatory prank on Deanie the Wodbble. I never got Kestral's explaination on what she was retaliating against, but knowing Deanie he probably replaced one of Kestral's scale-care products with honey or something.

This is a Fur Tree. Wobbles love it because it offers such great camouflage for them.

-poke- I don't want to seem pushy, but I'd love to know when this contest will end?
Well it was supposed to be weekly, but Garney was disheartened by lack of entries. You were technically the only one to enter during the week, then I debated moving it to a monthly contest and if anyone would complain and I just got scared and hid from the idea altogether.
Oh, I think monthly would be best. Maybe not enough people on secundi saw this, or remembered to enter? I mean, I saw it by chance, honestly. I was just browsing and saw it.
But maybe you could make it a big prize, like a color custom gidget? Once a month, one winner will get to order one and the gidget will be put on your to-do list, maybe?
:)
It is a good idea. I love the idea of the contest per month. That way I would have more time to do it XD
For this one I stuck to my prize listed above and gave all four entrants 100k sg and a Cryptix.
I will be opening a February contest here in a minute. Yes I know February is almost over, but this isn't a very complicated theme.

Lol, horsie has some bed-head going on x3 Or maybe it's a pony hes kinda short and chunky :D
Psh, okay that is the limit of my skills, I'm leavin' it at that
Yep, that right there! =3
If I get my machine back in time then I will try and enter. I meant to enter the last one but couldn't make up my mind what to do, and then I lost my comp meh
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I have been checking this thread, looking at all the other entries and that I do have an interest and appreciate you hosting the events *hugs*
Mmmm. I love this contest. Is there a limit to how many we can make? I sortof want to make a bunch, like playing around in photoshop and coming up with things.
Make as many as you want, or as few =D a basic set can be as small as two or three, but if you have other ideas and applications, please have fun.
Oh, so can I make a set of mine and edit it into my post? I have an idea but I might not even do it so...
Here's my entry! I'll go back and make a banner too if I get time. The pentagon represents each element of Secundi, united by the planet Secundi in the middle.

Ah I just now remembered this :0 Is it over? And is there a march one coming? =]
Just wondering, if it's not over yet then please pretend I was never here >.> *runs away*
well I was bored and remembered about this thread, so I made a simple banner even though it's long past the deadline XD
