Not that I'm opposed to it, I just question who your audience is? It's not like we don't allow new people to participate, it's just not easy to attract newer people into ASCII.

Having competitions with more experienced artists might be discouraging to people who've never done it before. They might be more likely to participate when everyone else is new at it too. I don't know if having a novice-only competition would actually help though, since people just don't seem to want to try it out.

Oh and I guess it'd be just anyone from the forums an in-game who'd want to come try it out, if the prize is enough of an incentive.

I like Long's suggestion. :) If we're worried about the lack of entries, perhaps we could have categories, for instance a winner for novice entries and a winner for experienced entries.

Ooh I remember that one Saph, I thought it was really cool seeing a predominantly largescale drawer making a signature since a lot of people that did both signatures and ascii started with signatures and kinda branched off.

Also I like the suggestion of 2 competitions with 1 for novices and one for experienced artists with a joint theme.

I'm not having any luck with surpassing the censor. :( Does anyone have any idea on what I could try to do?

And thanks, Sam. :) I think what predominantly stands out between signatures made by those who started making signatures before drawing is that theirs seem to be more focused on the ornate characters and all these lovely combinations of ‹ • ¤ * and so on, while those who first started drawing seem to focus more on the shape and outline of the signature. Dunno if that sounds like I'm spewing nonsense, whether it makes any sense or if it's even true to begin with. But meh.

And yeah I can really see that point about different focuses, people who made both were always interesting as you could see how their art style transferred to different situations

Hmm, odd. I tried it without my name in it before and it still messed up. But I'll live without the numbers. Thank for the help. :)
