Okay then! Now that we have plenty of members, I have decided to host a summer contest! It is time to get out our pencils once again and start showing off our artistic abilities--as well as the boys of DL's lovely bodies.

The theme for this contest is summer. You can draw whatever you want for this so long as it is summer inspired. Dalamar at the beach... Steel and Palin playing volleyball...... okay, those were crappy examples, but the choice is yours!

I'm going to give you guys plenty of time for these, so you have until July 31 to get your entries submitted. Then we will have one week's voting, and then I will announce the winner.

I'm still thinking about prizes. Chances are it'll be a drawing from me designed by the winner, unless I can think of anything better.

SUMMER CONTEST RULES

1. Your entry must have a summer theme.

2. Your entry must feature either existing or original DL characters. (Like that wasn't an obvious one!)

3. Sketches are allowed, so long as they are mostly finished or complete linearts.

4. You can submit more than one entry! The more the merrier!

5. Don't panic and have fun.

DEADLINE: July 31

When you submit your entry, either include 'Contest' in your title, or send me a message on this announcement with a link to your piece. As entries start coming in, I will begin a new announcement with all the entries linked so you may begin viewing.

When we reach the deadline, I will open up a poll for members to vote. Voting will last for a week.

Good luck everyone!!!
