Any sprite graded from A- or higher will be added to the Hall Of Fame.

Rules
To ensure that this competition runs smoothly, we have to lay down the law.
Just some rules you need to read before doing anything, so let's get this out of the way.


  • Sprites, Dungeons etc MUST be submitted in .PNG or .GIF format. If you submit sprites in any other format, not only does it ruin the quality, but it'll get you disqualified.

  • Do not enter more that one sprite unless stated in the round. If you do enter more that one sprite per round, the first sprite you entered will be judged.

  • Make sure the Sprite follows the theme, if it does not follow the theme the sprite will be disqualified.

  • Flamming, Spamming and other disturbances will not go unpunished. If you are caught, you will either get a warning or get banned, depending on the severity.

  • Please only give critique if the creator asks for it. Make sure you give constructive comments and constructive criticism so the creator can take that into consideration.

  • If you edit your post you will be automatically disqualified. This is to prevent people from changing their sprite. If you must add something or forgot to type something, this will be the only time you will be allowed to double post.

  • Stealing will not be tolerated. If you steal a sprite you will get a ban from the Darkness Contest depending on the severity.

    Jazz, I don't think you should make them use a certain two pokemon, I think you ought to give them a few choices, like, using at least 2 of the following Pokemon, Lugia, Ho-oh, Entai, Zapdos, etc.

    I'd hate to see this contest die, I'll probably have an entry in, new or otherwise.

    Oh and you should list all pokemon you can use. I think you going for a "All legendaries before Gen 3" theme?

    .:SL:.

    You can use Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Mew, Entai, Raikou, Suicune, Ho-oh, and Lugia.

    Have fun!

    And since Jazz is judging this round, I'll enter. Getting to work now.

    I'll have an entry soon. Since mixing doesn't take a long while, it'll be probably in 1 or 1/2 of an hour.
