Post by: TError on February 19, 2004, 04:18:13 pm
check it out http://web.sigames.com/competitions.php?type=view&id=2

Some of you are good at making icons, unfortunaly not me :(.

?10.000 should be just enough for a G5, or 3 ;D so go for it!!!

I am defiantly entering. The chance to win ?10,000 should not be missed. Would be perfect for buying a G5 and alot more stuff.

i don't think many "professional design agencies" as they put it, would enter in such a contest for only 10,000$. But Siggames is smart to open it to the public, which saves them a ton of money.

It might be interesting to see who wins in the end, and what it looks like.

lol i won't even bother marcy ;)

Yes for those americans needing visual translations; the lovely image at the top is what we call a "football". The sqashed bannana below is what we don't call footbal.. but rather "american fooball"... because you took the perfectly straightforward and enjoyable game of football and f*cked it up :P

Also what you call "Baseball" is actually called "rounders"... played by most primery school girls accross the UK.
Basket ball is also a varient of "Netball" except you couldn't keep still with the ball so they let you run around and bounce it.

Funny old thing sport

Acctually i think basketball was invented by a american "sport teacher" ???. He placed two baskets on opposit sides of the hall up on those "things you can climb"... . Eventually the bottoms of the baskets got removed so you would'nt have to climb after the ball all the time... Thus the name basketball  ;)

Nice sport by the way, I love it looong time

thank you, thank you, Kuza! hope you?re still happy with my work. :D

i think i?m not gonna participate in this contest though. want to give some other people a chance. ;D ;)

nah, i?m just not really interested in making an icon for that game... maybe if i get a good idea or so, otherwise nah. :)

Your very right joka, they cut the bottoms out of the baskets as it was too much effort trying to get the ball out if someone scored! youve got to admin though.... there is an uncanny resemblance to netball.

I don't even know what netball is ;)

Basketball does resemble that sport the Mayans were up too. They throw a ball in a basketball looking contrapment, pretty much at same height and everything. Don't know the rules about movement and all that though. The loosing team got slayed, that I do remember :D

Naaah, I read that in a book somewhere

So who has actually sent in some logos for this competition?

I have sent in 2 so far.

The silly idiot were using a PC to collect the emails and guess what it got a virus! So I have to resend them. Don't you think thats pretty fucking obvious that they would get a virus? Should have used a Mac!
