Wallpaper Contest

Hello, darlings. We in the staff room have decided it's about time for a new contest!

For this contest, you are to make up to 3 wallpapers featuring, of course, the band (or just select members). But you're going to make them Twilight-style vampires. We figured this would be alright since no one's ever brought up disliking Twilight. So it should be fun!

The wallpaper requirements are:
1024 x 768 or 800 x 600 pixels
Use at least one band member (obviously)
Must be vampy. It would be especially cool if you used creepy textures and brushes
Use whatever eye color you want (black is hungry, gold is full of animal blood, and red is full of human blood).
Have fun!

If you need some guidelines on how to make the members look like Twilight vampires, feel free to use my tutorial on how to do it:


Please PM your entries to me by April 9th, and I will post the entries then with the artists' names.

Are there any questions?

Hmmm....well perhaps those who dislike it simply realize they are a minority...
This will be fun to see, but I will not be participating haha! Can't wait to see everyone's entries!

I think I've actually stated many times my displeasure toward Stephanie Meyers writing.

I only remember you mentioning that you weren't sure how one shrugs off a coat

I've actually learned how to do that due to very crowded lecture halls...

Well, regardless, you snooze, you lose. You gotta mention not liking Twilight or we're gonna have contests Or get to me with an idea for a contest before Leia or another staff member does. Leia's great though. She comes up with most of the contest ideas. <3

lol, shrugs off coat

Awesome tutorial Andy.
I'm just ooking forward to seeing the entries, my stuff sucks

I DON'T like the books but I really enjoyed the movie and I saw myself as a bit of a minority on this but did find the idea fun.

Yeah. Question - Sharon already has flawless skin, so is the first step a necessity?

Not really but it helps create that vampire flawlessness

Yeah, vampires' skin is so flawless, that it just looks absolutely perfect and smooth. That part of the tutorial just shows how to do that, but I noticed there was hardly a change in the picture

Okay, by show of hands, who's entering? Just so I know.

*sticks hand up* I'm having a go at entering

And I've already gotten my first wallpaper done... Anyone else?

I'm working on mine.

I sent my first and am working on the second

I've done my first and second ones, i've just got to start working on the last one

I've finished all of mine. And I got yours, Leia (they look awesome)

I can't wait to see what everyone else has done I'm starting on my last one right away

I love the 'Golden' one, Andy

Thanks, Krista

One week, people!

Okay. GIMP is making me want to blow up buildings. So I think I'm going to skip this one. Since all I've managed to get done was making one eye golden. And it's metallic cause GIMP is a straightwad.

^ I so wanted you to enter. Ah well.

Four days to get your entries in, my lovlies.

Ok i've finally finished mine i hope they're ok
