Hello everyone,

Welcome to a second edition of a brand new art challenge courtesy of your Community Volunteers. We present to you a revised version of the last "I Challenge You" contest wherein this time you will not be paired with other deviants but rather you will work individually and be challenged by a Community Volunteer! We hope this will help get you out of your comfort zone and practice your creative skills, this time on a very individualistic level.

How it works:


Step 1

Step 2


A Community Volunteer will pick a challenge to issue you, which will be sent to you via note by Nobody

Step 3


Complete your challenge to the best of your abilities within the allotted 30 days and leave a comment which links to your final product on this journal!

Example:

Laura receives a challenge that was issued to her by Nobody. He wants her to photograph a flower that resembles the female anatomy, in an artistic manner. She brainstorms and creates what she believes is the best result she can come up with, and comes back to this journal, leaving a comment that says "Nobody challenged me to photograph a flower that resembles the female anatomy, in an artistic way. Here is the result: [Insert Link]"

Deadline [extended!]:


Participants will have 30 days to complete the challenge they've been issued, and leave a comment on this journal explaining what the challenge they were issued was and linking to the resulting piece of art.

The Schedule:


June 1st - 15th: Sign-Up period. Deviants complete Step 1.

June 20th:
A Community Volunteer issues a challenge for each deviant they were assigned to, Step 2 is completed.

June 22nd - July 22nd:
Step 3 is completed by 11:59 PM Pacific Time on July 22nd.

Prize:


We will select three artists who completed their challenge with the most skill and creativity to win the following prizes:


1st place: 3 month core membership, or the equivalent 1,200 Points
2nd place:
400 Points
3rd place:
300 Points

Why the changes?


Our last version of I Challenge You was a huge success in terms of sign ups and turnout, except for the fact that a lot of partners were left alone as their partner disappeared or could not complete the challenge for whatever reason. It seemed unfair for all these deviants who had created great art, to be disqualified simply because their partner disappeared. Therefore, we tweaked it so that you're the only one you rely on now, and you all have a fair chance at winning!

Sorry, where should I look at to see the journal about the winners? I mean, in every group you mentioned there will be a journal? Because I'm member just of a pair of groups like CRLiterarure and dASupporters.
