Oh yeah, we can do that every other week, I like the idea and it will also bring some variation into the competition.

Maybe it's not your style but I do think you can do some cool stuff with the nature theme.

I like those ideas, but I don't think the donating thing is going to be a success. We can definitely try it out though.

Before I host the next SOTW competition I will be making some adjustments to the rules to avoid a couple of annoying situations. Since the previous theme 'movies' was a bigger success than I expected I would also like you guys to suggest me some themes you'd like to see in the future SOTW competitions. So feel free to post all of your suggestions below. Currently already suggested themes are: -Anime -Nature -Video Games -Pop Art -Sci-Fi -Music -War -Smudge -Photomanipulation -Sports -Animals

There used to be an event subsection, maybe bring it back and we can host the SOTW competition there. I noticed the thread gets the most attention when I just created it because of the recent topics sidebar. After that it slowly dies because not a lot of people know of its existance so if it was not on the bottom of the forum it might help bringing it back to life.

Congratulations to for winning this SOTW!

Will definitely be useful for beginners. Thanks for sharing!

It's much better than #1, I'm not sure if it's because of the light theme but this one has a cleaner feeling to it than the current homepage so I prefer this one.

The movie theme seems to be quite popular as I already have 6 entries and still waiting for a few people. The voting thread will be put up tomorrow so get in your submissions asap!

I'd chose another color scheme and a different font. Also you could create like a shadow under Rayman's shoes so he pops out a little bit from the rest of the layout.

Congratulations to @zaros784 for winning this SOTW!

Your use of gradients is good, the upper part looks good but the wheels and tires need more work. Not all of your wheels are circles, you can easily draw perfect circles in PS by holding shift while using the elliptical tool. Not sure what you did to the tires but I think you better use the pentool for that. Keep it up!

Here are the entries for SOTW #15 Vote away!

He's definitely not that bad but I would like to see more improvement and some more advanced pieces before I promote someone to designer. There's also no need to let people vote. Not to sound rude but I'm aware of the fact that a lot of people don't have the correct knowledge to judge in this case, thus having no influence on my decisions.

I agree with the comments above. The main reason why your beveled text doesn't look good is that you're mixing up two different styles, on one side there's the beveled text popping out and on the other side you have the flat UI style at the bottom. I think you put the 2 logos there to make it appear more symmetrical since everything is centered but it looks a bit weird, you can resolve that by putting the logo on top of the osbot text. I like the way you tried to change the composition of the main content but it makes the actual content look a bit cluttered. The idea behind it is good but there are still some adjustments to make.

When we have sufficient entries. Right now there are only 2 entries and I would like at least 3. With a freestyle theme this should be feasible.

It looks like you've achieved the look you were going for pretty well. Nicely done, keep it up!

The text is hardly visible on the last few, you basically threw some c4d renders on there. I honestly wouldn't call that professional. Anyway, if your customer wanted it like this I guess it's okay.

The points are explained here: http://osbot.org/forum/topic/28903-designers-point-system/ and the PiP will last until there is a new winner.

You will get 1 Designer point and the SOTW Winner PiP. We used to have a thread about this but someone seems to have hard deleted it.
