I was wondering, should Wc3c hold a skin of the month/week contest? Where the skin would just be chosed out of the gallery, I was just wondering if anyone thought this was a good idea or not.

That's a great idea. They'd probably come from the previous weeks gallery. You should suggest this to one of the admins. :D

of course!
1. the skin becomes more popular
2. the skinner becomes sorta popular
3. the community gets note of the sorta popular person and gets to download the 'weekly' popular skin, which wont be popular by next week

i'll only vote yes if its anonomous... It'd be a popularity contest otherwise.

Actaully i was just thinking that everyone would vote on the name of their favorite skin from the week. Plus, there could be different ranks, so people besides whitehorn could win.

impossible to be anonomous If i posted a skin in the gallery and the same skin would be up for skin of the mouth you would know. Who is gonna run a contest every single month. Plus people here barely enter.

i mean, make a new skin for the concept...

Ps, isnt judging people by ranks a bit harsh?

Well, if its any skin this month, i nominate Sansui's nord best skin ever. Its true!

If i recall correctly, there USED to be a skin of the week contest, with even a whole forum for it, only admins voting.

But apparently it has been removed or something, since i dont see it here anymore.

thats all well and good but what about the skinners (like me and a few others) who dont post skins often.

theres a rank of skinners now?

kinda like the idea.

on a side note WTF happened 2 the wc3c run contest i want a real award 4 16th place in a skinning contest dammit.

maybey a most downloaded of the week. but then people would dload there own skins like 20 timez.hmm but maybey if people do that they get banned. requires some serious thinking.

or you could just post skins that you do in the gallery and have people give you helpful criticism and... nevermind...

why would whitehorn win evrytime hes good but imsure many people are just as good just dont get noticed... because they dont post as many skins and arnt as popular.. mock 1 is just as popular
so anyonumus would have to be the way to go.

although that dosnt work becaus some people have noticceable styles.

Well, I think the best way would be to have the people make the skin just for the coontest, and get in trouble and be disqualified if they post it in the gallery. Some people might be able to tell, but it's still better than everyone knowing ahead of time.

Why not just do it like this?


Like..

Sansui, Mock1 and Whitehorn enters contest, and like.. Sansui wins (No offense to you two) And he'll become the judge for the next time.

Morale: The winner becomes the judge. And therefore can't enter that time. But next time after that he can enter again.

That makes it a bit more balanced.
