Mini-Competition!
Image
Dot-to-dot

Introduction
Ran something very similar over at Klik-Union when it had some sort of activity (and

existed) and it was a minor success so thought I'd introduce it over here. Some of you old

KU'ers may have participated in the original

It's a simple fun competition, and really not all too serious. Basically there's an image

with dots on them, and in with amazing accuracy join the dots together to make an image

which then you can decorate!

Rules

+You may start at any dot you wish
+You must connect all the dots
+You must not go over the lines when you colour in
+You may not change the original picture dimensions
+All entries must be posted in this topic
+Images must be in .png .gif or .jpg/jpeg format.
+You may submit up to 5 entries however only the best one will be eligble for the prize

Deadline
The deadline will be exactly one week after the 3rd entry is posted. The 3rd entry

is defined by 3 entries from 3 different people.

In the event of there not being 3 entries the competition will close in 3 weeks time

Judging
+Judged by me
+No real categories/scores
+Purely decided by which artwork I like best

Prizes
1st = 200 points!
2nd = 100 points!
3rd = 50 points!

Thanks to Jon for donating half the points for the prizes

I feel there should be bonus points for making anything other than a car...

Gives you abit more play with the lines.

@Sketchy:- You're probably more likely to win if you create something slightly abstract so I guess in a way you do get more points

You failed at colouring between the lines Spitznagl

You're allowed to add detail between the lines [inside and outside of the car/sleeping dragon] Just so long as its clear that the lines were joined up in the first place

Soooo, add some colour and stuff blendroid ;D

Actualy, all the colours you can see in the image are lines. I loaded an array containing the coordinates of the 22 points in MMF2 and I used the overlay object to draw random coloured lines that link every points together (484 lines). No rule says that the lines must be black.

I'll take some time this week to really try though.

Your turtle would have been more attractive had it not had a pointy tail/shell thing

Seeing as it was fairly successful you may see another one in the short term future hopefully

Glad it was appreciated/enjoyed by people

More creative mini-compos would indeed be welcome. Maybe something that doesn't require artistic skill as much, so that everyone can more easily compete?

Like... err... I dunno, maybe just combining pictures or something? The funniest pair of images (anything you can google up) side by side? All you need is copy-pasting and some ideas. xP The images could feature opposite aspects, mock each other, have funny similarities, anything. Just needs to be funny.

I remember there was a game a while back that just required users to pixel a 10x10 square on a much larger image.

Someone should do something like that again.
