Gee, a challenge where Matt doesn't set the aesthetic used in judging, and
doesn't act as judge. He ran away from that as fast as possible...a typical
personal insult, a little puff of dust and gone.

Here are the rules:

• Incorporate the letter form "WORD". (A nod to your "word art")
• Base colors are not to exceed the primary range. Tints are allowed and
color combinations of the primary colors are allowed, but not to exceed
the tertiary range.
• Image size: 400 x 300.
• Produce 1 work per week. Deadline for posting is 5 pm EST 5/16, 5/23,
5/30 and 6/6.
• Open to all and any medium.
• This is a GRAPHIC DESIGN competition. Coding is OT for this newsgroup.
If you insist on defining coding as graphic design, take this to
alt.design.coding and you loose by default.
• No cross posting. Period.
• I write the rules, you name 3 judges that are a regular part of this
newsgroup and are graphic designers by hobby or trade. Judge's decision
is final.
• Loser doesn't post in this newsgroup for 6 months. Winner takes all.

Begin.

....but that's a contest based on AESTHETICS, not only that it'll be
biased since most everyone in this froup hates my fucking guts, so
pretty much all you've done is create a fixed "contest" in which you
can't lose simply by gaining the popular vote.

Where as the challenge that *I* proposed was NOT based on aesthetics
but purely on code construction and image encoding. I mean if you
take a source image and you get it to 6.32 Kilobytes and someone else
manages to compress it down to 6.22 Kilobytes with no visual loss of
quality (say a range up to 5% pixel variation from the original) then
that is a MEASURABLE difference. What your proposing simply can't be
measured in those terms. And on the coding aspect of my challenge the
goal is achieving the fastest load/render time without sacrificing any
of the original functionality of the source site. Again, that is a
MEASURABLE difference.

I will go ahead and make the image as per your criteria, for the FUN
of it, but I'm certainly not going to stop posting when all the Hatter
haters jump in and start snitting...then again, you probably won't
even POST an entry and you'll just lose by default...but something
tells me you'll just keep on posting too though, huh Cuppycake?

Sorry. No. This is a newsgroup about GRAPHIC DESIGN. Not coding or any
of that unimaginative BS you spew.

Oh, I'll post my 4 on deadline. It's been eating at you real hard that
you've not been able to see my work. Why else would you keep repeating
that I'm "unproductive", "talentless", "have nothing to challenge",
"design deficient", "stunted creativity", etc.

Get ready, because I'm going to shove every bit of that down your
fucking throat.

My advice to you: don't rush through the challenge and don't miss your
deadlines.

Later, chump.

The meaning of that word really gives you problems. Even measurable things
that you use as a system to judge something are an aesthetic.

Matt, if we have to find someone who has likes or has respect for you, that
will mean.....well....YOU have to judge the contest.

OMH = Joshua Davis wannabe. Josh was doing the stuff OMH was in 1999,
