they showed some of the runners up on their facebook pageit was interesting and the comments
I understand that as "popularity will an additional criterium taken into account when deciding how to sort images of similar quality".
Think i stay on the contests of @Daz_jack_tomalin - they are less complicated and much more fun... without any FB, Tweeter or such... In addition they are more fun for the communtiy, cause we can all see the entries and leave comments ;-)
Just my 2 Cents
- nuff said.
Well only if you are a PC member.
Well only if you are a PC member.
Ups... well that's right. Mmmh. But anyway. Better than to see only the first three ones, or in that case the first 9... ;-)
Isn't it soon end of work day at Dazland... No change on the "Official Contest Rules" and no answers...
Edit; Half past midnight here, no change... What's going on? Apparently making changes to the promo pages is no problem, but updating incorrect information on the "Official Contest Rules" takes more than two working days...
they say to tag @insta_daz when posting on social media.
The twitter daz handle is @daz3d (not @insta_daz, that's only the instagram name). Why would you tag @insta_daz unless you were posting on instagram... clearly they didnt think that statement through.
You? I can't either. It leaves an interpretive opening you could drive a truck through. Not really a good thing.
And the other problem in those rules is that one can't follow DAZ 3D if one only participates in a social media platform that doesn't have a follow mechanism, like DAZ 3D's own DAZ Gallery.
One Q I've got:
After posting entries on social media (twitter/insta/DA/etc) can we then repost it elsewhere (such as here in the forums)? -We could then have a thread for sharing our entries (and linking to our social media if we like).
I assume it's okay to post the same image to multiple social media accounts and have it count as one entry (or will that confuse your process?)
Just a reminder...
The "Official Contest Rules", https://blog.daz3d.com/sword-and-sorcery-fantasy-contest-rules/ are still talking about one first price (Zbrush 6 month subscription) and seven winners.
Still waiting for answers for concerns about the Rule 8, when read and used as it is written...
rereading I noticed something amusing of sorts as we are not restricted by the usual tos rules here
well rule 8 reminds of those phone ads that had pictures of celebs sometimes that you'd ring up and person on other end would talk to you in a certain way about what they were wearing or use or sell your image face to sell advertising for pills or something
so if say we post our image on facebook and don't get enough likes/comments from our friends that can count against us? Also do our friends get tracked too? Like here I don't do that well on facebook in the likes/comments from friends but I do ok on facebook art groups with likes and comments - BUT thing is many of those groups are private and the only way can see content in many of them is being a member of those groups. I do really pretty well on Deviant Art though with lots of likes, comments, saves and shares but don't think this place would like some of the comments I get, oh and ones uploaded there have added to them deviant watermark
people actually put deviantart watermarks on their art unironically?
i think posting to as many social media accounts as possible would be in the spirit of the contest. I mean clearly this is just outsourced advertising campaign masquerading as a contest anyway.
well I got asked by someone if they could reuse my art with slight changes and for them to claim as their own and in return they said they may credit mention me as creating original so I started doing that so they couldn't as well as then saying or others saying I ripped them off which happens
kinda weird thing to say too that you can enter as many renders as you want so long as it is just as one person and email and not as several differant personas/emails - why would anyone try and do that I mean if you were only allowed one entry per person/email yeah I reckon there would be some try and cheat as several different people with mutiple entries but we can enter as many times as we want unless someone was trying to win all three prizes I guess
still can't see any image restrictions like we do on here so I'm guessing more adult themed even sugestive in their eyes is considered ok if posted elsewhere as an entry and not appearing on this site like what I posted on page 2 of this thread with images from various fantasy artists using what some here refer to as skimpwear.
Maybe the one that posted the rules, didn't read them through...
My dayjob includes reading orders and contracts once the sales has filed them into our system, and the day is yet to come that there wasn't even one, where I didn't have to ask the sales if they bothered to read the contract through, and I've been doing it for 9 years already.
But why would you not put your own watermark on them, rather than use DA's? I designed my own logo and put it on everything.
I guess that means we really can do a NVIATWAS render. Great, best kind to do!!!!!
yeah I could I guess do that too have paintshop pro so that has that tool, lazy me sometimes and there is the option of me removing the da one easily so I can download copy any of my remders then readding it if need be if say I lose everything again from a computer crash . I do add jma1972 on everything but that could probably be cropped out or edited out painted over if skilled enough
well it wouldn't be really sword and sorcery fantasy otherwise really it'd be just labled fantasy like Lord Of The Rings. To me when I think S&S fantasy I think Conan style and artists Like Boris valljo, Julie Bell and such
oh I got a reply to my questions stupid facebook didn't tell me had anyway kinda sounds we have bit more freedom still sort of restrictions but how i read not as restricted as on here so still need cover certain areas but think for most part not as covering covering as what has to be here so the bikini thingy is ok as are typical fantasy saucer bras
it's like, surely you'd rather have art "stolen" than to purposely ruin it with a watermark so much so that nobody would even want to steal it in the first place.
the DA watermark is so ugly.
wonder what possesses people to think it's a good idea.
It must be past noon at Dazland... Still no corrections to the rules and no comment about rule 8
They need to update the rules for the prizes, definitely, but what makes you think anything about rule 8 is going to change? It's the one they have been using for contests, what would make this one different?
