This kit should be everything you are as a Designer. There are minimal rules here, I really want to see YOU and what you are capable of. Please be very careful with quality, both with your own designs as well as purchased CU. More than any other round, in this round quality can & will cost you the win. Likewise be sure to properly credit in your TOU.

You will create your theme, your palette and your description from this photo. The Rules: Use the photo to inspire your kit. Remember the running base theme is the moon.

I don't know about you all, but I downloaded photo after photo, made palette after palette, thought of theme after theme, then started two or three different kits, before finally deciding on what I wanted to do.
Crazy, huh? And I'm just playing along to play along.

A little romance, anyone? After discarding a few themes, I settled on honeymoon. That meant romance and hearts and flowers. One of Captain Kimo's photos had just the right colors. So, mine is done, and uploaded (and I followed the rules this time, too
). I've had fun playing along this year without the stress of being in a contest. Thanks for letting me play.![]() Now I'm off the play the last week of Digidetective which I've found I really enjoy. |
