I'd probably enter as well, although not sure there's any chance for me in such a contest. Then again, this thread did prove that taste is extremely subjective, so, who knows? Smile

I personally think Xinivrae would have won, if she entered.


Somehow I doubt that, because, subjectively, even among the chosen 20 someone else should've been the winner (IMO, either Brit Green, or the person I am quoting now, perhaps?), and yet we saw what we saw...

But, truth be told, I am a little more surprised to see such a low amount of votes than the resut itself.

Still, congratulations are in order.


I think there weren't many votes because a lot of the people didn't agree with the top 20 list in the first place. I'd quite like someone to start another competition with a different format. It was fun seeing all the different entries.

Agreed. I've been thinking about that a bit.

Three judges... Judging to be based on 1024x1024 portraits only, captured the day of submission. I'd love it if CCP Karkur could be one of the judges. Any characters owned by the judges, prize contributors, or contest runner, would be disqualified (we'd need CCP to check this). The person running the contest would select the top ten for judging. Judging to be based on a points system: 10 points for appearance ("beauty"), 5 for pose, 5 for facial expression, 5 for lighting and background. Character with the highest points wins, contest runner decides tie-breaking situations. First, second, and third places would be awarded.

I'm too lazy to run it, and besides, I'd kind of like to enter. Big smile


When I am finished with the male contest( https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=130003 ) - I'll gladly do a female contest.

I'd join, if I could stop messing with my avatar every couple hours..... Luckily, I think I finally burned myself out on the character customization page. Maybe now I'll finally be able to settle into one look for a week or so :-)

Do any of you people ever look outside of GD?

There is already a long running portrait contest here with top prize over a billion isk value.

I've only looked at the rookie q&a and GD, myself. Unfortunately, 20mil might be a bit too steep for a rookie like me... gotta save up for that Dominix, y'know.

That is a Best Portrait contest, open to male and female portraits. It is a great contest, but not the same as what Jack or Ginseng are running. For example, the current winner wouldn't qualify for the contest I describe: http://eveportraits.wordpress.com/winners-gallery/

I agree small minded role players find it hard to see past the end of their nostril thats smells the same stench to conform to being a sheep rather than a shepherd.

There were dozens of attractive entries. I don't know what happened. I wish I voted now. /=

You seem to have some bitterness stuffed deep down inside. Is there anything you'd like to get off your chest? Maybe something you'd like to say to the group...? You don't have to hide your feelings here. We're all here to help.
