Yes! A new contest!
You will notice that in each of the pics I've used as the run-up to this contest that there is something going on. Each of these pics are worth 1,000 words, as the saying goes.
Well, actually... in this case, I am starting the prize pool at 100,000 points!
So who knows where this will end!– Dimensions must be the banner size of 2048px x 1152px. This is not an official banner contest, but if @Hunter decides to use a few for banners, then winner, winner, chicken dinner.
Disclaimer – I have no idea if he will use any…– I am the sole judge and decider. Contest starts today and will finish 12 PM (midnight) Wednesday, May 31!
– AI art is not eligible for this contest, and no NSFW, gore, politics, or otherwise inappropriate themes.
– Up to THREE entries per person, but only one will be eligible for a prize (unless I change the rules - as I am known to do 😀 ).
– Prize pot is points to be distributed as I see fit.

Tell me a story... Dream me a dream...
Show me a pic worth 1,000 words!So about the only thing excluded are portraits, which by their nature have nothing going on? That's a very non-specific criteria La_Pucelle.
I'll put in 10,000 points anyway.edit - I'm having some trouble with the points transfer. I'll try again when the site settles down.
Hi Pucelle! Thanks for throwing this contest up! I’ve been real busy but have transferred 5000 pts to your prize pool. GLTA!
I haven't had any luck transferring the 10,000 pts. Tried without the comma and with it but it only transfers the initial digit, eg 10,000 only transfers 10 pts, 9000 only 9pts. I don't have any idea what's going on.
Rank:
@frank22 have you tried it like this 10000.00 or 9000.00 no commas but with the .00 at the end
@Frank22 Frank, Ade is absolutely right... you have to have no commas, and the .00 on the end before they will transfer. ie.: 10000.00 5000.00 1000.00 etc.
Story pic worth 1,000 words... this is an interesting concept! Thanks for sponsoring the contest @Lapucelle.
Anxious to see what you guys come up with!
Donating to a deserving cau...ontest.
May enter (if still eligible, and) if can find the time do devote.Are we just posting entries to this thread?
🙂"It always starts with a dame - I’m Nick Grimes PI, and in this case it was an envelope under the door of my office. I’d stayed there overnight to clse up an case, and had a couple to many shots of celebratory bourbon. There was that envelope, no name on it. Picked it up and got a hit of perfume… not cheap stuff like most of the dames I know wear, but real classy, expensive. Inside was a card, and a c-note. Card said – “the hundred is an enticement to meet me for a consultation, no obligations. Meet me at the Old Town Bar at 4:00 PM today. I will be seated in the last booth.” Whoever she was and why she though she wanted to talk to an old gumshoe like me? But that C-note just for showing up?
Hit the bar like she said and there she was as advertised. This was not dame, this was a lady, and she’d done her legwork, bottle of bourbon on the table, with a lowball already poured, and a pack of the smoked I liked there on the table.. “Good Evening, Mr. Grimes and thank you for coming. I think I may need your help”
And that’s how it started, I’m a sucker for a pretty face, could only hope this wasn’t another Black Bird caper."Added 10.000 to the prize pool. Not sure I'll have time to participate but thank you for entertaining us and organizing those contests 🙂
@Bebe - as film noir is definitely my thing I really love your entry 😍.
There's a great discussion about who is/isn't a "dame" in Laura (1944).
