Idea for a new contest here at Aqua-Soft

Well I just got an idea. I'll keep it short. Member creates a thread (make this a weekly thing perhaps), posts desktop but doesn't say what he used to make the desktop like it does. Other members try and duplicate the desktop as best as possible. Winner can be picked by a panel of senior members or something like that.

We can have the same rules we have for the Aqua Desktop thread by brian. i.e. apps/skins/icons must be freely available for download. Also a couple of other rules like one entry per person blah blah....

I think this is an especially good idea because it will make people search for those items. Especially helpful for n3wbies who are getting into Aqua emulation (what say aleks? :P). Also if possible members who compete can post links to where they got the skins/icons/apps, you get the general idea.

I think it's a good idea. What say you?

Sid, timmy is gonna have to poop on your idea right now, you guys can do whatever, but I can't say it will be supported by the staff and the site alone, if someone feels its junk and closes it, then thats it :/.

More of a game than a contest I think...

Plus the fact your there to mock someones desktop, what is stopping someone say me... from opening up photoshop and cut and pasting?

Cut/pastes won't work because most people here know how to detect Photoshopped images. Even if they do cut/paste, there is no real prize for the winner. So if you wanna take part in this it's just for the fun of it.
