I always love seeing what you’re going to come up with every assignment. You always think outside the box, and it’s really refreshing. Sometimes you’ve missed the mark, but most times you’re dead on, and it’s awesome! I love this picture! It’s so dark and sinister, and I love how you can barely see your model’s eyes….makes her more demon-like. Awesome job!

You never cease to amaze me. Yes, this picture looks a little sloppy compared to your other work, but it still looks awesome! You, like Chicago, think outside the box, which I must commend you for. Awesome job!

The poem kind of reminded me of a PSA the way it was written…cadence-wise. lol Both the picture and the poem are beautiful. Awesome job!

You’re picture taking abilities have come so far in this competition, but you still have a long way to go. I like this picture, but I think the editing ruined it a bit. If you’re going to edit, make sure you do it so that people can’t really tell, like have it flow seamlessly with the rest of the picture…which is hard, I know, but it comes with practice. Anywho! Great job!

I really like your poem this week. It gets the point across quite well and touching. The picture is also fantastic. Well done (:

I hate to give you such a low score, but I really don’t see bargaining at all in this. I mean, the picture shows it, if you know the subject, but the poem doesn’t at all…to me, anyway. They are both amazing! But wrong for this assignment.

Eliminated

Bubby. I feel so bad!! And I know I'm gonna feel this horrible for everyone else that I have to eliminate, but since this is the first time I've actually had to eliminate someone, I just feel absolutely atrocious!....well, I really hope to see you next cycle!! *hugs*



Good luck on the next assignment!! :D

Sorry! *hides*

hello, where are all the pics?

imma working on mine today! i actually wrote the poem this time!

I'm going to try and get started on mine tonight (hopefully). It's just been a hellish week and it's only going to get worse from here on out (for this week and much of next week).

I'd be lucky if I can work on my pic tomorrow. Finals week. darn advanced courses.

@Kelle,really?! Good for you can't wait to read it
and can't wait to see everyones pics.

i hope you both, cel and chicago, can get your pictures in!!! good luck! im just waiting for lucille to have her baby then ill be taking the picture! ive already have in my mind what i want the picture to look like! xD

Ok so i have done mine and 'tis pretty crap, but it's the best i could do.

wow its good toblie!

thanks kelle, but in the words of Jay Sherman "It Stinks!"
in case you don't know who he is

hahhahahahhaah ok i am over it lol

Hope you can get it done Cel, good luck :/

Good job Toblie (:

Wow! That's wonderful!!Looks like a real picture. eerm photo.

'Tis NOT crap, Toblie. In the words of Tony the Tiger it's...


But really--It shows depression very well. The picture is beautifully done. The tissue box is a nice touch. It's miles better than anything I would come up with, if I was still in.

Toblie, if that's "crap", then call me a crap-fan because that picture is bloody awesome...so dark and real. You're nuts if you think that picture is bad, and the poem is spectacular! (and heck yeah, I remember The Critic!)

I'm going to try really, really hard to work on mine tonight. I'm feeling worse than I was yesterday, and this is the 1st time I've been on the computer today. If I can get thru the poem without puking, I should have it finished by tomorrow...I think.

Thanks bubby,
@Sweetbaby_- lol that tiger made me smile i so loved frostie flakes (If i remember the name correctly) Thanks heaps. you know i giggle every time i see that tiger.
@Cel- rofl crap-fan, i hope you get better it's not fun when you a puking, it's the worst. Don't stress yourself if you are sick sit down and chilax. lots of water, suck on ice chips they put water into your stomach slowly so you don't just barf all of it back up. Oh sucks to be you right now.

Can't wait to see what you gals come up with.

i havent actually worked on my picture yet >.> i gots the poem and found a piece of CC that is very critical to my picture i have planned in my head. i just have to play the game to get Lucille unpregnant lol i work the next 4 days (yay me!!!) so i need to get started on this....at least i already have my poem right! hehheh. >.>

@Cel: Don't worry. I must have passed on my sickness to you because I've been sick the past like 2 weeks. Just do what you want, eat yum food and relax, oh and don't forget lemonade, it makes your stomach less pukey. I'm sure if you need an extension, Akasha will give you one, she's not that mean lol I think we'd all rather you to get it done and wait a bit then for you to drop out.

@Toblie - Yeah Tony has that effect--he always makes me giggle too :lol:

@Cel - Sorry to hear that you're so sick. That pukey feeling always sucks ugh! Chamomile or ginger tea usually helps me when I feel that way. It also helps keep you hydrated. I hope you feel better soon!

aww guys feel better. *hugs with hazmat suit on*

lol bubz

hey everyone! meet Josie, lucilles new baby!



im glad she got her momma's skintone instead of her daddy's (grim)

anyways do you guys know what this means??? PICTURE TIME!!!! i have my set all set up so i just have to change her hair/makeup and clothes and then its picture time! woooo!!!!! k. now im gonna get to it xD

ok! here is mine....I wrote the poem this time so go easy on me.... >.>

The Pill

a feeling of misery
boiling deep inside me
creeping up my spine
taking over my body

The scream escapes my lips
and no one hears me
they dance around me
while I am broken on the floor

They wonder if im crazy
or just wanting attention
no one will listen to me
no one will help

I suffer alone in silence
proclaiming its all ok
they believe me
and go on their seperate way

They whisper to me
just take the pill
become a zombie like us
and let the feelings diminish

Will this ever end?
i ask myself
yes it can
just take the fucking pill

go on
swallow it
what am I waiting for?
just take the fucking pill!

Oooooh Kelle, me likes, me likes! My pic is going to be very dark too, so I hope you won't think I'm copying you (and my poem has some similarities too)! And congrats on the new baby!

Akasha, I hate to do this AGAIN, and I know you guys are really getting sick of me asking, but can I get an extension? Even just for one day. I may or may not need to go to the doctor depending on if these current meds help my stomach ulcer or not, and I barely got off the couch yesterday. I'm just sick as a dog right now, and even if I have to turn in another test shot I will in order to stay in this. I won't drop, but I just need a little more time. I honestly haven't even started working on it yet, and my stress level is at DEFCON 1 right now...

cel its alright about the extention, you know that all of us would rather give you more time then see you having to drop out! k? so be happy, get your picture done, feel better and dont worry about a thing *starts playing that song*

xD

Ooh we got two in! Two more to go! And Cel, of course you can have an extension. How bout I make it til midnight Sat. That's two extra days. Feel better! And good luck on your finals Chicago!

Thanks akasha..Cel I hope you feel better soon. Get lots of rest and fluids.

Oh and can we change our models eyebrows??

Oooh kel nice, picture, the poem well i had to bleep out the swears lol.

xD i thought it made it more raw and emotional with the swear words. hope no one is offended.... >.>

I consider eyebrows makeup, so yeah.

lol guys

Quick question just to make 100% sure -- the new deadline is midnight Saturday, so do you mean Saturday night/Sunday morning or Friday night/Saturday morning?

Just want to be sure!

Ok...I'm preparing myself for a barrage of sharp objects being thrown at me, but...

Akasha... ...can I get a little more time? Something is wreaking havoc on my entire computer now, not just my game. I have some virus I'm pretty sure, and I need to get a new antivirus program to find it (my current one sucks). That shouldn't take too long, but it will take me all day tomorrow to do it. I'm SO SO SO sorry to ask and piss everyone off and hold up the show, but I promise this will be the last time I ask for this assignment.

I need to find out what's going on, because it's starting to look really bad. I usually have no problem removing crap, but this thing might be over my head, or at least difficult to find & remove. Not sure yet. I'm so sorry to ask!!!

SAFE MODE Cel safe mode, quick run your scans, quiiiick!
i hope it's not to serious.

I use AVG. Hope you get it sorted.

Of course, Cel, as long as everyone else doesn't mind. How bout I make it til midnight Monday(sunday night).

Oh thank you so much Kash! I promise that'll be the last one. :o

I did a few hours worth of research last night and decided on Avast for my new anti-virus, and I kept ZoneAlarm for my firewall. I found 2 high-risk trojans last night, and I'm going to do more scans & cleaning today when I get a chance. Still crossing my fingers that it'll all be okay...

I just found more than two high risk trojans today. They're quarantined but it still scares me. No more downloading CC for me. :/

That sucks Evie! I'm not 100% certain that mine DIDN'T come from CC, but I don't think they did. It's too easy to get a drive-by virus from any random site, so at this point I have no idea how I got these (found one more after a few extra hours of scanning).

Now I have to test my game and see if it will run any better...really crossing my fingers that it will.

Good luck Cel!

beautiful picture chicago! love the poem xD

thank ya kelle. its a bit simple 2 me
