    The Platinum Spriting Contest is the newest up-and-coming spriting contest for spriters to compete and fight for the title of the best spriter in the Pokemon Platinum forum! As with most spriting competitions, the Platinum Contest features a wide variety of sprite styles, such as fusions, retypes, trainers, and so much more. Come test your skills and see how you fare against the many talented spriters in the Platinum Forum. Are you up to the challenge?  There are currently two talented spriters who co-own and judge the competition.   JJoploo, JosiePika The judges deserve your respect and courtesy, and their word is final, save for when the Section/Forum Moderator steps in. Any questions, comments, concerns or suggestions should be directed to them via Personal Message. Remember, the judges are ultimately there to help you improve and point out your flaws. Take what they say to heart and you'll definitely find your skills will improve!  To ensure that the competition runs smoothly, there are a few reasonable rules which have been set. In order to make sure your sprite can be judged, make sure you familiarize yourself with the rules, as broken rules can lead to lowered marks or disqualifications. Only post sprites which follow the current round's theme. There are many sprite galleries around the Pokemon Forums where you can show off your other sprites. It clutters the thread and can make judging more complicated, so please refrain from posting other sprites. Only enter one entry. Spamming and flaming are not acceptable under any circumstances. Spam refers to any off-topic post which does not relate to the thread or the current theme. Flaming is when a member insults and attacks another member or a member's sprite. If you continue to break this rule, you may face a ban from entering future rounds. All off-topic discussions between members should be done elsewhere, preferably over PM. Theft will result in a ban from entering future rounds. If you steal another person's sprite and claim it as your own, you will be banned from entering in the future. Also, if you take an idea from a sprite and copy it to the point where you may as well have stolen it, you also could face a ban or disqualification for "idea theft". Being creative and original has its own rewards and generally works for the better. Please save your sprites in .PNG format, or .GIF for animated sprites. Other formats often lower the quality of your sprites. Sprites saved in other formats will be judged, however if the quality is lowered as a result of the format save, marks will be taken off. .PNG is always the best! Once you enter your sprite, you may not edit your entry. Each participant only is allowed to enter one sprite, so be sure you're 100% satisfied with your sprite before posting. When you post, please remember to list the sprites you used! You may edit the post with your entry in it to fix the coding, add some more information (such as the sprites you used or whether or not you'd like C+C), however you may not edit the sprite itself. If you are caught editing your entered sprite, you will be disqualified. Please try to use Diamond/Pearl or Platinum Sprites only. The newer sprites are by far the best. Using other sprites can lower your mark, depending on the end result. The only exception for this rule would be when you are entering a revamped sprite from an older game. The best place to get your sprites is PokemonElite2000. For Platinum sprites, you can find them here. Only critique sprites when the creator asks for it. "C+C" or Comments and Criticism are often asked by spriters to get feedback on their sprite. If you want it, simply ask for it when you post your sprite. If you want to give feedback to someone, feel free to post it on the thread, however it must be constructive criticism. You can point out flaws, but be sure to mention how you think they could be fixed, and mention parts you like. A little kindness goes a long way! Treat everyone with respect. Even if you dislike someone, they deserve your respect. Treat others how you want to be treated. This goes double for the judges. Please don't post asking when judging is or complaining if it's a bit late. The judges are real people too and as such, things going on in their lives can hinder their opportunity to have time to judge. Judging sprites takes quite a while, especially when there are a lot of entries. Please be patient and things should run smoothly!  On the date specified, a judge will gather all the entries and judge them on a scale from A-F. Pluses (A+) and Negatives (B-) will be given to differentiate between the good and the great. The best score a sprite can receive is A*, which is only given to flawless sprites. Once all the sprites have been judged, the top three scores will receive points to be added to the ongoing scoreboard. First place will receive three points, second place will receive two points, and third will receive a single point. Sprites which receive grades of A- or better will be added to the Hall of Fame in the following post.  Here is the current scoreboard. The scores are cumulative and roll over for each new thread of the competition. FourthBeat - 31 Artirtico - 24  AragornBird - 23 Fossilhunter - 21 JJoploo - 21  WhiteGold - 20a JosiePika - 13  Armless_Man - 12 JiZZi - 12 Corey13 - 10 Samkuro - 9 Boo - 7 Hugs 4 Hackers - 7 Rascal Lover - 7 Simon1987 - 7 King Chaz - 6 Ophion - 6 Squirrel Lord - 6 Bond007106 - 6 HiHi - 5 Mudkipz Master - 5 Anti_Righteous - 4 Lizz - 4 namtlaks1 - 4 NickAlert - 4 Pheonyx - 4 ArcadianSky - 3 AyraCalaenlen - 3 Ripulse - 3 Weavilax - 3 Aether - 2 Colbat Ace - 2 Gumboy - 2 Insert Username Here - 2 Leoina - 2 Master of Scyther - 2 Pokepower - 2 Polardirt - 2 Vollando - 2 Wilson7555 - 2 Ahmed000 - 1 Apr0xy - 1 E4 Morty - 1 Gallon - 1 Inferno07 - 1 Joekikas - 1 Lunaria - 1 MysteryOfBonju - 1 Neon_Bobcat - 1 Shiny Milotic - 1 Tears Of Blood - 1 White Spirit – 1  That's all folks! We wish you the best of luck in the competition, and perhaps you'll find yourself the proud owner of some sprites in the Hall of Fame!

 Here is where the current round's theme will be posted, as well as a full list of the sprites entered in this round. You will also find the date of judging, and the name of the judge who will be judging this round. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! If you don't fully understand the theme, then be sure to ask, because if you don't follow the theme because you didn't understand it, your sprite may receive a lowered grade. Theme: Fighting + Psychic = Ghost Mix a Fighting and a Psychic type Pokemon and retype it as a Ghost type. Judge: JJoploo Due Date: July 16th This message was edited by JJoploo on Jul 12 2009. ------------------- | |

Nice new theme, JJ. =3 I'll get an entry in ASAP.
Also, you might want to update the scoreboard and HoF with the winning sprites and points from the last theme and last thread, 'cause you quoted before the judging.  And also edit this little bit put in by FB on the first post: quote FourthBeatYou can put my name there if you want. xDD | |

Congradulations you two, hope it runs smoothly for you  Just to clear the theme up, can it be a quote from a movie or book or does it have to be a phrase like sticks and stones? .:SL:. -------------------  | |

I was so excited, I did my entry right away. This is my favorite Quote: "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog." --Mark Twain So here is my entry:  I created a dog. I put a heart on it's chest to represent it's fight/drive. I used: Main body: Mightyena Tail: Mightyena Front Ear: Arcanine Back Ear: Mightyena and Scratch Black Color: Darkrai Brown Color: Kangasghan Inner Ear Color: Lickitung ------------------- I remembered black skies, the lightning all around me... | |

Does it have to be a pokemon sprite? Or can it be a trainer?

Yes, it can be a trainer, just as long as it's based on a quote.

JJ, you still have to fix the HoF with the winning sprites from the Mascot round, my Eevee mascot got an A-.
I think I'll do "2 bee or not 2 bee. That is the question." Maybe I'll do a ghost-type bee. xD Thanks everyone for the encouragement! =D | |
