In light of me being far too lazy to spend the proper amount of time creating a new icon, I'm goign to use some of our fancy prizing we've now got kicking around here to bribe you guys to make me one! 

I want it to really stand out, possibly be animated, funny as all hell, and very true to my personality.   Tall order but hey... the bribes are good.  :) 

Contest will run for one week, and the winner gets:
-Full range of Studio411 videos - (Yeah dude, Seven Sunny days, Save, Believe, New Dawn)
-Obermeyer Prize pack (Obermeyer rules)
-NS Stickers
-Voleurz Bandanna
-Limited edition IF3 beanie by Bula

So get your photoshop rocking and make me an icon!

Post 'em in this thread.    1 week starting now!

50x50 pixels. Plus it's a bit too big for him, it has to be under 6 kb.

this is the most disgraceful allocation of prize resources to date. what about an early season edit or photo contes that would actually produce some interesting media that everyone can benefit from?

Oh please stop complaning! If you don't like it go somewhere else, plain and simple. Try and find another online site that offers as many cool and unique contests as ns. Not everyone can ski early season. Not everyone has the camera to film. Not everyone has the ressources to get someone to film them. Not everyone has the time or skill to make an edit.

EVERYONE has paint and their imagination.

plus NS has a ton of Studio411 videos. the more people get the ski movies the more exposure people get. Might as well have some fun contests that many people can do.

Question:  Do we have to make them ourselves? Because i do not know how to do the animation part, and can anyone tell me a program or just how to size something to 50X50 ?  like in paint can u make the drawing size 50X50 so you know what you can draw in?  and also, can we find some on t\other sites for you?

thanks,

vt

You don't have to use it, just right click and save as.

Simple as that!

Truthfully, I think that stickying this is a slight abuse of power. I have seen far more "imporatant" threads go without a sticky. It seems like a legit contest with good prizes, that alone should be enough to keep it on the front page. But, hey, Im just a mere mortal.

Hahhaha... I'm taking that as a compliment!   I'm glad I could push the boundries of what is disgraceful on this site..

Seriously though, do you not remember seeing this picture?

Vids

This is the videos we have to go to CANADA.   So don't worry there will be lots of cool contests too, not just silly ones like this!   However why not use it... I mean I want to give as many of you a chance to win as is possible!

What would you like to see as a contest?
