    And here is another pic with Easy Environments...

    In addition to the drawn items ++ Egyptian Pyramid ++ The Construction Site ++ L'Orangerie, and ++ Queen Hetepheres' Sedan Chair I used the DAZ products:

    ++ Genesis/M5 ++ Victoria 4.2 ++ Brennan for Genesis ++ Ohi'a for M5 ++ Pharaos of the Sun/Children of Aten ++ Evan Hair ++ Easy Environments 'Eternal Sands' ++ Pharaos Fantasy ++ Fortune Teller 1930 for V4.

    Plus: ++ Roman Clothing (by Wilmap at sharecg) ++ Sonia (by SAV at Renderosity) ++ Sandworld Oasis (by 3-d-c at Renderosity) ++ Morphing Scroll Roll (by Pappy at Renderosity) ++ KerWar Fancies 01 (by sazzyazzca at sharecg), and ++ Ankh Rings (by chriscox at sharecg).

    But what's this tag? Do I need to add something else? And where?

    Just add "TAG:Polkadot#1" in the top of your post in the entries thread, so it's easy to identify when we're voting,
    and then #2 etc for the forthcoming entries....

    Btw, great entry, a little "Ken OBanion" over it, which is a good thing btw ;-)

    Sorry for the novice questions. I have never participated in this contest but it seems really fun and a great way to stretch the imagination. Can someone give me some detailed instructions on how this works. I am on a MAC, so not sure what random application to use from the link provided. I exported my entire DIM products into a .csv which I can open in Excel. But I am not sure what to do from there.

    Thanks.

    Welcome to the RRRR (and a fellow Mac user ;.))
    You don't need to use an application, just use the website as is.

    in Random.org, just enter you total number in the to box and click [Generate] four times (and record the number for each.
    See attach (there it is 1-100).

    I also did it again.

    My second draw: ++ MyPrincess ++ Proud Eagle ++ Spartan Warrior ++ Jannah. Again a crude mixture of cultures :-)

    And a third one: ++ Dream Home: Dressing Room Furniture ++ Lisa's Botanicals: Briar Rose ++ GIS: Future Sight ++ Hawaiian Tatau
    OMG. Kitsch in space?

    Okay, maybe the full moon gives me some inspiration... :coolsmile:

    I agree, Totte - this contest is BIG fun!

    Ok, so if I understand this correctly, my random sequence is:

    532
    900
    817
    315

    And this means, according to my spreadsheet of installed content I would use:

    Osaka Hair PoserCF
    Zombie Snow Plow
    Urban Future StudioCF
    Genesis Hyper Suit PoserCF

    Yes, but as the DIM splits for example "Osaka Hair" into Osaka Hair PoserCF & Osaka Hair (DS genesis) you can take "Osaka Hair" as the pick and then choose if you use Poser (PoserCF) or Ds (Genesis=) version, but you got it right!

    Awesome! Yeah, I will be using the DAZ versions of these then. Are we allowed to use other items from DAZ or just these four?

    Look at our entries so far, we all have a long list of other items used, but the four must not be hidden somewhere (unless of course that is just what it is about, like having the princess just seen through the window of the tower), but normally the picked items should be clearly visible.

    My list is updated...and pull # 1 is:
    743. Epic Wings X-pansion
    246. StoneWare, Organic 1.0: CaveHome
    665. The Man Wolf
    646. Purple Rain Outfit

    Title: The Wolf Who Cried "Boy"

    The three wolf figures are the Man Wolf (even the lady man wolf!), the houses are all variations of the cave home and the ground came with that set as well, the purple dress is the purple rain outfit...and the wings on the Llama are skinned from the expansion. Also used various clothes, lovable llamas, a skybox from one of the easy environment sets, and shaders from pimp my prop to reskin the cave-homes and ground. And some of Ron's brushes for the birds to foreground weeds. :)

    Draw 2:
    #61 Treasure Chests
    #7 Jeweled Finery
    #205 PC10 Extravaganza 6 (OMG that's a lot of stuff!)
    Short Order Cook for Genesis
    Moonshine's Diner Interior III
    Bobby Soxer
    Dot Check
    Sandy Hair for Genesis
    A Curious Tea: Eat Me
    #1165 Plated Wolf (Hey, random.org, you gave me this one last time!)
    #198 Hat Hat Hat

    So, what is the rule on drawing an Extravaganza (6 separate products in this one)? I'm going to assume it is the same as drawing a bundle, unless I hear otherwise. 5 draws nets me 10 products to incorporate into one image. :ohh:

    Edited to list the contents of PC10 Extravaganza 6, so I can keep track of all the stuff I have to use.

    OK, I got some parts from every product on my list (all 10!).

    Also Used:
    CGTextures on floor
    Totte's BWC Country Road (guard rails hidden)
    Moonshine's Diner and tables
    Urban Recreation skydome and lighting
    Coffee Creamer from Poser World
    Genesis and various morphs and skins, tattoo added in Photoshop
    Hellboy Soto Flat Top
    Pocket Filler Dollar Bill
    Tre Shirt and Tre Textures
    Moody for Dark Moods pants, boots, chocker, bracelets
    Most Digital Creations Mohawk prop for V4
    Holiday hair shader from PA giveaway 2012

    TAG: barbult#2
    Title: Welcome Reverend Art Zone

    Church Lady: I'm eager to meet the new minister, Reverend Zone. I hope he likes this little reception we've set up for him. I'm pretty sure he'll be pleased with the size of this Sunday's offering collection!

    Young Punk: I can't wait to see the expression on their faces when I pretend to be the new minister! I've just got to get out of here before Uncle Art arrives.

    443: Jeweled Finery
    695: Party Dress
    897: Steam Carriage (added Vintage and Restored Textures)
    374: Grebloids

    Also used Regency for M4 and props from Medieval Tavern

    You tricked your blind date into furnishing the limo and the snacks.
    And YOU forgot the corsage. Now think very carefully before you answer:
    Does that dress make her look fat?

    Had a quick look through the last few pages:

    Luci45 "Best Sushi Ever" - great start there, but yes he does look a little creepy!
    barbult "Hair Foolery" - oh dear, I feel like that sometimes, even at a so-called proper hairdresser!
    and "Welcome Reverend Art ZOne" - very good! Lovely details there.
    Ken OBanion "Knowing That Your Boss ..." - yes, that's quite a busy scene - my laptop would never have managed it.
    Totte "These are ot the droids..." - love it, the sands look rather nice there (I didn't pick that one up as I couldn't think what I'd use them for) - wish there were a LoB II
    polka dot the Pharaoh one - a great start there - nice render and funny too.
    Kaputcha "The Wolf Who Cried Boy" - another real quirky one from you.
    gopherus "Blind Date" - mmm, crazy one there too!

    Looks like tis is shaping up to be a good contest... all I need is a few IDEAS!
