To start the ball rolling, but not an entry...
Pretty PaperMy favorite rendition of the song "Pretty Paper" is by Randy Travis.
The song, written in 1963 by Willie Nelson, is based on a real person.Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write I love you
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue.Crowded street, busy feet, hustle by him
Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk
Hoping that you won't pass him by.Should you stop? Better not, much too busy
You'd better hurry, my how time does fly
In the distance the ringing of laughter
And in the midst of the laughter he cries.Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write I love you
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue.
December 3, 2021 at 12:17 AM #1754143Thank you @Lapucelle.
I'd like to contribute some points too but I've given a lot away recently and I ran the comp before last so I'll just contribute a picture/s this time round.
Great idea breaking the comp into those categories.December 3, 2021 at 11:57 AM #1754260Duval just added 20,000 to the prize! Thank you so much!
That puts us at an 80,000 prize pool folks!
December 4, 2021 at 1:14 AM #1754399Hello,
1. I'm new here. What does NSFW mean ?
2. Only 3D pictures in the contest or photoshop pictures admitted ?
Thank youDecember 4, 2021 at 2:50 AM #1754423NSFW = Not Safe For Work (nudity)
Generally 3D pictures but other art forms would be accepted like 2D. Definitely not photos of real people.December 4, 2021 at 10:53 AM #1754535Here is my 1st entry, under the makes you want to cry. As an ex serviceman, I spent several tours away from Family during the christmas period, my 1st christmas away was the hardest as my daughter was just 3 years old, 4 days before christmas we recived parcels and one was from my daughter, a drawing of santa and her daddy, I cried for about 5 minutes......
So to all servicemen and women who will be away from family this Christmas, you are in my thoughts.
December 4, 2021 at 4:14 PM #1754615I always struggle for inspiration when it comes to Christmassy type images, but you can't beat a good festive tune on the radio, so here's a little Jingle Bell Rock.

I'm not trying to be an ass, but this is an actual photo from 10 yrs ago with the saturation turned up and the logo photoshopped off the ball. That's it.https://ist1-1.filesor.com/pimpandhost.com/1/_/_/_/1/1/f/U/1/1fU1M/Angelina%20Joli%20%28855%29.jpg
December 6, 2021 at 5:10 AM #1755153In which case I withdraw my previous comment. Perhaps explains the "I like to play games" comment. We had a problem with a similar person/s at AOD who were fakers. At least some credit for a nice bit of Photoshopping LOL.
Christ almighty, it can't be that hard to put something together all by yourself. Deserves banning.December 6, 2021 at 5:26 AM #1755159@frank22 Ah, don't feel bad. You nailed it with "Perhaps explains the “I like to play games” comment." but this was the kicker that tipped me: "100% built picture, made with love ? This is my entry. Nothing is real, like a 3D pic. I can provide the mats." That's just too cute😂
That and the fact it was an actual photo.December 6, 2021 at 5:54 AM #1755173I don't feel bad.... maybe I'm a bit too trusting even on a site such as this. If we had a photo manipulation forum I'd give it 10 out of 10, pretty good. It's just that it isn't what it pretends to be. I wonder how long he thought he'd get away with it.... had me fooled.... not the sharpest spike on the cactus tree.
December 6, 2021 at 5:57 AM #1755174Trust is good, but a 10 out of 10? I could do the same thing with the source in 10mins. No way
