Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) Welcome to the Photography Contest! Welcome back for another round of the DC Photography contest, come and show us what you've got! This time, the theme is: Handwriting - Post pictures of things written with something like pencil or pen. Also includes calligraphy stuff. Submission deadline: October 23, can be extended Voting deadline: October 30, flexible Rules: - One entry per person. - A photograph is defined as an image made using a camera or phone camera - Screenshots are not allowed - Picture has to be made by yourself and can't be just a reproduction of someone's work. If someone else's work is in the picture, there needs to be something extra. - No manipulation besides basic photo adjustments (contrast, exposure, cropping, color balance, lighting, etc.). - No text or framing in the photo. A signature/watermark is just fine, but it's preferable if you don't have "O Hai Eye Hav3 T3XT" (or something similar) present in the photo. - When voting, please don't select your own image. This will ensure fairness. - You are free to submit an old photo; you don't need to take a new one just for this competition. - Winner hosts the next contest.

Posted October 18, 2020 I certainty don't have any on file. Finding handwriting fit to photograph isn't easy ! I found one - and it is FAR too personal to show in public... So - not ignoring your thread, just... Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) Wrote down some Trivium's lyrics on paper just for this contest, not the best handwritting ever Spoiler Edited October 18, 2020 by Little-Star Share this post Link to post
Posted October 21, 2020 I found my camera! After searching through 17 moving boxes ... I also found my old notes from student times. Apparently, I ran out of paper by the end of the page. Spoiler Share this post Link to post
Posted October 24, 2020 I have a file of school projects and poems. This one, I think I was 9 or 10... Share this post Link to post
Posted October 24, 2020 Well OK - to support this excellent game: my mother used to pride herself on her script - she put together a booklet with loads of samples. Mine is - more mundane. But MUCH more useful. Spoiler Share this post Link to post
Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) The poll is now on! I picked a random note from bookshelf and it had supplement pages, why did I wrote those again? Edited October 24, 2020 by sh20000sh Share this post Link to post

Posted October 24, 2020 Poll is odd. It says 7 members have voted, but only 6 show in the column at the right. Share this post Link to post
