Well, I tried to get hold of Oakseed, but unfortunately time is up and we need to get moving. So here's the new challenge. The theme for this month is...
The CityDeadline for entry is
midnight (GMT) on Wednesday 30th September (note for UK entrants: we are currently on BST, 1am BST = midnight GMT i.e. an hour later). There is a 5 minute grace period for getting your entries posted properly, after which a moderator will post a list of valid entrants and voting begins. Voting will then close at
midnight (GMT) on Thursday 8th September, when a moderator will total up the votes and announce a winner. Toward the end of the challenge a mod will pick someone at random from the participants to set a new challenge for next month (so keep an eye out).
Final entries ONLY in this thread please, no conversation. All discussion, arguments, drinking games, cuddly toys, and WIPs should be posted in the WIP thread:
http://community.imaginefx.com/forums/239207/ShowThread.aspx#239207Brief rules: It is compulsory to submit a minimum of 2 different WIP stages in the WIP thread in addition to your entry. Links to your WIPs must be included for you to be eligible for inclusion. Artwork must also be created within the time period of the challenge, any previously created works will be disqualified. Moderators will discount any votes deemed suspicious and adjust the result accordingly.

This is especially important in the WIP thread as we have to check these when setting up voting, and there are also members on slower internet connections that should be considered. Thanks.
