egolatra says:

There will be 2 categories:

stylish & retro

For stylish you could be able to use any of the new & hot stuff in the scene

For the retro you just will be able to use any element from 2004 and before.

The ss with more points in each category come April 21st "wins".

Point system
"love it" = 2 points
"like it" = 1 point

You are allowed to love/like your own SS.

Please be sure to tag your screenshots with the "SS07" tag

thnx Tab.

What about using something from 2006 that has a retro look/feel?

egolatra says:

that would suit in the stylish category

the retro is more like ol' school concept

with all of those great styles backdays like spitfire, philly, dmc, olive, orbital and a lot more.

I would love to submit a entry, but I am only a 14 year old desktop customizer so I have a lot to learn yet.

Great, I like these new rules. Lets make this the best one yet :)

I do suggest that we use the Groups feature rather than the tag to keep track of submissions. VisionLeague is using it here http://customize.org/groups/vision . It needs some cleaning up (the "more" link is broken) but with some development it will be a lot more powerful than the tags as it can keep all submissions and discussion in one place (and in other cases, be invite only).

oneiro is hoping to release our suite at least 4-5 days before the contest deadline, so that anyone who wants to can use it in their submission.

egolatra says:

the deadline will be april 21st. All the participants must upload their screenshots by that day. it's almost a month, so the SS will have a lot of time to be prepared and we will have great shots for that time.


Bero, that's cool i hope that the retro get more participants


BTW what do you think about of a tournament style for this contest? you know A vs B C vs D --> winner AvsB Vs winner CvsD

just for groupthink not that it will be for this spring-summer contest, but maybe for the autumn-winter one

cyantific says:

I say we make the submission starting date like the 19th. That way, if everyone subs at relatively the same time, there will not be substantial differences in "love" due to the amount of time a ss has been up between those two days. Then the judges can tally the scores at a firm time on the 21st. Just to make this as fair as possible, any submission entered before April 19th or after April 21st, will not be considered an entry.

Sound good?
