I'd like to know your thoughts on the first contest. ~ What kind of submissions would you like to have? Only drawings or mixed work like drawings and fanfics, etc? ~ Suggestion for a theme are more than welcome! Help me find a subject for the contest ;3 Since this is all still quite new (and I have no idea what I could give out lol), there won't be any real prices for now. So, for the start contests will be just for fun and to inspire you a bit ;3 Maybe there'll be some prices in the future, we'll see. The submissions of the first three winners will be displayed on the Club mainpage. To be fair, every club member will be able to vote for a submission. I will use the poll tool for that, please be fair and don't vote for yourself. Ok, that's all I can think of so far.. if you have any ideas or questions, please feel free to post them~

oooo! yayy! ^_^ well, as far as prizes go, there is something which would make things easier on you, even; there used to be something around called the monthly harry potter fanart challenge, or something along those lines, and the way it worked was that each month's winner picked the next topic for the contest :D so maybe you could do that, and then you wouldn't have to pick a topic every time ^_^ just a thought on fanfics-- in order to be fair, each person would need to read every piece, and as many wonderful fanfics as there are out there, i know that some people unfortunately don't have time to read them, (particularly if there are a lot for a given contest) and thus couldn't vote fairly, yknow? :questioning:

ps. thanks so much for doing this!!! :glomp:

Maybe we could have a Fanfic section and a fanart section and then just the winners depending on how many people join in... Themes... Hmmmmmm... Maybe every month a random member (maybe draw them out of a hat or something?) could pick a word to base a contest on... Like... I don't know... Grin or snake or you get my point... ^^; Thank you! :hug:

You have some point there on the fanfics.. I guess seperated contests for fanfics and fanarts sound quite good :3 And I also like the idea of monthly themes chosen by a member... but I don't know if the winner should be the one to choose a topic or just some random member, so everyone who wants to choose one will have the chance to.. both ideas sound fine to me, so what would you prefer? And nothing to thank for ;3 rather I have to thank you for your interest and sharing of thoughts :D

Maybe just random, because the same people might enter a contest and the winners may not vary... *shrug*

[quote]Maybe just random, because the same people might enter a contest and the winners may not vary... *shrug*[/quote] That was my thought, too ^^; So I guess I'll just pic random people who want to suggest a topic some time. What about the first theme (for fanarts), does anyone of you already have an idea for that? ;3

For Fanart... Hm... Muggle?

ooh, muggles sounds like fun! ^_^ it's almost st patrick's day, too; so perhaps that could be a fun topic :D another thought on prizes-- maybe people could offer to make commissions for the winner, or perhaps each winner could have a commish from the last winner? ionno :D

woo! what about SPELLS? Potter characters using spells - they can be unique, hilarious, serious, strong, or baisc.

[quote]maybe people could offer to make commissions for the winner, or perhaps each winner could have a commish from the last winner?[/quote] Hmm.. well the problem is that I'm not sure, if every winner would also like to do a comission.. not everyone feels like it, you know ^^; Now, both suggestion sound good ^^;; But I guess the first one, "Muggle", could go quite easily and inspire a lot... What do you think about choosing "Muggle" for the first theme, "Spells" for the second and after that, people who'd like to be randomnly chosen for suggesting a theme could tell me so and we'll stick with that method afterwards? :3

sounds lovely! ^_^

I'm in! ^_^ So it's muggle yes?

Yes, it is ;D
