First topic message reminder :

So, because it's just me, I decided to add another scoring category, so that there are more points, and less of a gap between people. I actually was going to add this at the start of the seven stages, but I forgot. lol

Also, I wanted to say again, that I'm really proud of all of you! Beautiful work!! :D

Good luck on the next assignment!! :D

Akasha Can I stay within the same theme with my model if still in the next one? I mean like at the castle with the next assignment. If it's what I think it is it's like the next part of the story (my nightmare). Lordi! I'm talking like Shaggy on scooby doo. " Like Scoob that's a good looking scooby snack" LOL.Must be tired.

@Cel Thanks.

Rofl!! I love Scooby Doo!! It was one of my fav shows when I was a kid.

And, of course! lol It's your picture. ;)

hey cel i found it here :D http://bella3lek4.blogspot.com/2010/01/sims-3-big-bloody-knife.html at first i didnt want to use it because i wanted a simple knife, ya know like she picked up a kitchen knife but it was the only one i could find lol

Thanks Kelle!!!

no problamo, i sent you the email btw

Whoa! o_o Those pictures you guys entered for the last assignment were awesome! And so are the ones for this assignment so far. Sorry that I wasn't around, I was outa town for a few days but when I came back I had school and my internet wasn't working. I swear my internet hates me D: But anyway I'm here and am looking forward to judging and seeing what everyone comes up with. It's the weekend too so I'll probably be on more, yay :D

And sorry but I want to share....HEHEHEHEHE I'm so excited because I'm going to Luna Park (some theme park here) with my friend on Sunday! I haven't been to Luna Park in ages, I feel like a little kid being excited lol But it's so much fun

OMG--FANTASTIC entries so far--all of you!!

One of you had my idea, so now I've got nothing and have to think of something else, ugh! :lol:

Aha! Phoebe! There you are!! We missed you girly! Glad to see you back. :D

x] Glad to back 8)

I want you guys to know that some of your poetry had me in tears...beautiful...very real! What am I gonna do when this comp is over....it's so fabulous!! I can't even think about that. I'm just so glad that you bought this awesome comp here and think about here for cycle 2 if you want. You are more than welcome! Anytime!!

I'm so going to join cycle two if akasha lets me. This comp is amazing, and all of the pictures you guys are creating are just beautiful. Plus the assignments are always so fun!

Next cycle I'll be lurking so others can have a chance to enter. This IS a fun comp. I've learned a lot and met new nice people.

Akasha, is it alright if I have a small extension, maybe one day (til Wednesday)? I've been mad-busy this entire weekend and haven't even come up with a tiny idea yet (that I can use). If I need anything past Wednesday, I'll tell you so that you guys can go on w/o me (hopefully that won't be the case, but it's another stupid-busy week coming up).

Evie, you should definitely join the next one. I'll be cheering you all on from the sidelines :D

*oh, and good to see you back phoebe

Aww, I hope you don't have to drop out. I would be willing to wait til next Sat if need be.

Aw, thank you bubby :o I'm trying everything not to, so hopefully it won't come to that. I think I only need that one extra day -- my submission won't be anything spectacular (especially with the things I've thought of so far), so it shouldn't take too long to finish.

I don't wanna be a pest!

ill wait to! i would hate to see you drop out cel!

No problem Cel!! I'll make it til Thursday if that's alright with everyone...

And of course you can enter next cycle, Evie!! I'd be glad to have you!

fine with me.

I'm sitting in the same boat as Cel...
I had a horrible busy week, and I haven't even come up with an inkling of a usable idea yet. My original idea for a picture is too similar to Kelle's to use. I don't have an angry bone in my body, so I think that's why I'm struggling so much with this. I REALLY don't want to have to dropout, but if I can't think of anything usable, I really don't wanna hold up the show either.

Its okay. I'm in the same predicament. Midterms are hitting me hard.

so we wait,alls good.

i can wait just fine!! dont anyone drop out!

Yeah what's a few more days. ^_^

Thanks Cel (:

And nobody drop out! D: You all are very talented and it would be a lose to this comp if you go. Your better entering something than nothing at all. Plus if more and more people drop out than at the end the winner might not feel as if they deserved to win. Good luck, I know you can get a great photo in ^_^

Hey dude(ette)s! I didn't turn on the computer one time yesterday -- been SO busy. I'm taking a 30 minute break right now and checking in. It'll be a struggle to get the pic in by Thursday, but I promise to turn in SOMETHING, even if it gets me eliminated. It's been an awesome competition, and if it's my time to be let go, it'll suck but I'm happy with my effort so far (and that's REALLY hard for me to say! lol).

I love you guys!!! *insert sappy hug smiley here!*

<~ thats my hug lol. I'm about to work on my shot again, it crashed on me Anywho, I hope both my poem and photo is okay....and I cant seem to think of another way to portray anger, so I'll get that in soon, maybe a hour or 2.

Cele- I"m sure you wont get eliminated.

Edit: officially pissed. I lost my poem! I'm trying to rewrite it but it's not the same I been trying to look all over for it and it's not turning up anywhere. sucks bad.

Chicago, my GAWD I love your avatar... That's just CRAZY cool...and I'm so sorry you lost your poem! Did you accidentally delete it?

I don't think I've ever been this sleepy in my life. We went to bed so late last night, and I had to take Benadryl which STILL hasn't worn off, and I need more b/c my allergies are killing me (and other meds just don't work except for prescriptions). Taking a 15 minute break now to eat a bite, then get back working on this pic.

lol Thanks Cel. Thats Lemiko btw lol, she's like a chameleon lol. Actually i wrote it on a piece of paper and I put it up cuz i didnt want my family to think I was crazy lol..and it disappeared. I bet I'll find it after this assignment.

I hope you feel better soon. Allergies are a pain I'm sure. cant wait to see your pic. I'm about to enter mines in about...5 mins or less.

* It's a Premeditated murder poem with anger*

Chicago that's effing AWESOME! I'd hate to run up on her in the dark, or daylight for that matter! SWEET! I love it! (and our models are wearing the same tights!)

I'll have mine up in a couple of hours hopefully...I dunno. I just got started on it this afternoon, so please don't expect much...

:face: thank ya..I'd hate to be in a relationship with her lol. Cute! They have similar taste lol.

uh huh, I've never expect anything less then sheer genuine creativity ;) so I know you'll keep on delivering.

lol if you only knew, Chicago. I accidentally (and BOY HOWDY do I mean accidentally) happened upon 2 poses that ended up working pretty well together (my model and an extra). It's not a bad looking shot, but I'm afraid the focus isn't enough on my model. Sooooo...what to do? No idea. I haven't eaten today, still got sleepy meds in me, I'm frustrated and effing EXHAUSTED, I'm pissed that I waited until the day this damn thing was due to really start working on it (though I've been unusually busy all week), haven't finished the poem yet, FORGET about editing cuz it's 4 1/2 hours til midnight & the end of the deadline (assuming I'm not already past it), I'm feigning to play some game...ANY game, or SLEEP or do something else for a while, but I need to devote every waking second to this or else I won't come back to it. My tooth is hurting for some stupid damn reason and did I mention I'm exhausted...? I have no idea what I just typed, and frankly I don't care. I need to just turn this pic in RIGHT NOW the way it is (which isn't TOO bad) and copy a poem from some site, but of course I can't because I'm one of the worst perfectionists that I know.

god i'm tired...just SPENT.

I've been really sick for the last few days--dead to the world. For that reason, I have not made any progress towards an entry. I'm so sorry, but you guys will have to go on without me. Although I'm feeling about 50% better now, it's too late to throw anything together from scratch. Again, I'm really sorry!

Chicago - WOW great entry!!!

sweet baby no! I hope you get better soon, take care of yourself. It's so sad to see you go.

Cele~ Take care of yourself too girl! Gotta eat something, and once you post your shot forget about everything and go 2 sleep! Slap the perfectionist side of you lol.

Sweet you're leaving?! Oh no...okay, I'll stop myself from saying "don't go" because I know exactly how you feel, but I HATE to see you have to drop. Like Chicago said, take good care of yourself and feel better soon. We all understand -- just get some rest!

Chicago, I plan on sleeping my ass off after I post this and take care of a couple more things. I should have it up in a bit (I'll probably have to find a poem online to use).

wish i could go to sleep..I have to finish this project. I think I'll be done by 11pm

OMFGoodness!!! Cel! WTF! lol. everthing about this is amazing! Work off of benadryl and sleep forever lol. If i wasn't half dead, I'd say more

I'm saving that pic 2 lol. Night

LOL! Thank you Chicago I know I sound like a broken record here, but you have no idea how much luck was on my side with this one. It's a miracle the damn thing even came out AT ALL. Lighting and poses go a looooong way, that's for sure...

I have a sort of Vivarin buzz going on (didn't take any, just an example!)...not completely sleepy but not completely awake either. I should probably try the sleep thing, tho...*yawns & falls out of chair

Damn! Another one gone...well, I hope to see you next cycle, SB!!

Phoebe, I need your scores, hun. :D Oh, and did see the extra score?

Holy Crapples Cel that picture is amazing

Omg Cel! I dont even know what to say. Beaaautiful picture.

Thank you PK & Evie...! I was so out of it yesterday...I feel like I'm getting a chance to really look at it clearly for the 1st time today, lol!

I really wanted to share a picture of one of the extras, the dark angel. You can't see him too well in the photo, but I think he's hot :



And some outtake images that came out fairly well (again, it's so hard to see the details in the assignment shot):

sOhh he's niiccee! Great pic everyone. Sorry to see you go,Sweetbaby,take care

and you said it wasnt gonna be good cel. its amazing!!! just like all of your pictures! and wow chicago! she is...freaky lookin! o.O damn! you guys are just to good! lol!! :D


sad to see you go sweetbaby T.T i hope you get feeling better!

Kelle, if you had seen what shape I was in when I was making that pic, you'd understand, lol! I was messed UP -- sleep deprived and full of Benadryl, just out of my head. And since I started on it yesterday, I had no confidence that it would even be post-able. It came out better than I thought it would, but *insert my same old blah blah blah comment about how it could be better HERE*.

I promise I'll stop saying that stuff. It just makes people think that I'm either full of it, fishing for compliments, or trying to be negative on purpose. It's just how I tend to react (and honestly feel), but I'm working on it.

lol!! well at least you got it in! and it really does look great! now get on the chatbox woman! im bored and cant concentrate on the invaders assignment pic i have to do >.>

@Akasha: I'm doing the scores now and the things are How well this stage of grief was represented, Creativity, Picture, Overall (pic and poem) right?

Just had to stop in to see Cel's entry - unbelievable work again! I don't know how you do it!

If I had forced myself away from bed for a few hours to throw something together last minute, I KNOW mine would've ended up total garbage - elimination worthy Now that I'm feeling myself again, I really wished I hadn't dropped, but it's too late now.

Anyways, I'll still be here in lurker form cheering you all on
