    Is there a cap on the resolution of the image?

    I'm working on a few.

    Wow, Marcus is good!! There is no way I'm going to make anything that intricate, partly due to the fact that I don't know how to work everything on my program yet.

    Is there a reason photobucket resizes images? My pics went from 1024x768 to 665x510...
    EDIT: it has a 65% in the top corner, so does that mean that it's only 65% the size of what it truely is?


    I PM'd mine in. You can see them in the link Jon provided.
    Not sure if I'll do more, depends on how schoolwork is.

    You can submit up until the 28th of April, but you will only be eligible for the Blizzard contest if you submit by the 26th.

    Will we be able to view everyone's submissions afterwards? If so I'd like to award the creators of my favourite two submissions a Zergling each, as both a motivation to submit and a motivation to make the submissions look as good as possible.
    Just quickly, who do we email or PM submissions to? BirdofPrey or Joneagle_X?

    Well I was just going to do it on a personal level, giving the creators of my favourite two a Zergling each, but I'd be happy to donate both Zerglings as prizes at the end of the contest.

    Reading is your friend :D

    Is there a minimum resolution though? But if it's 1024 at most then I suppose 500x500 is still applicable(?).

    I'm working on 3 pieces right now and I have a 4th idea coming. Let's hope we get 100 submissions :)

    From the wording and the fact its going to be a mosaic I am going to say make it EXACTLY those dimentions.

    Who said you need artistic skill?

    Get a damn camera, take a pic of yourself holding the sign. It can just be you in your room, just do SOMETHING!

    I want those 50 submissions, and I want them NOW!

    There is no way I can make them exactly 1024x768. It'll be pain enough to resize the pics to that small size, but one of my pieces is 4k by 2k for example so the ratio doesn't match. I assume that can only be 1024x512, huh? -.-

    I need the ratio to preserve the layout -.- Meh I'd hate to add black stripes just to make the ratio fit 1024x768.

    Jon, can you confirm the size requirement?

    Just make sure you have at LEAST that resolution.

    Blizzard will take care of the rest. :D

    Plus problems like this would be avioded if you size your image canvas before starting. It definately makes my life easier.
