| | 29 | == 17 january 2010 - Scripting contest == |
| | 30 | Hello everyone, |
| | 31 | As you may or may not know, we've recently added a new feature in GrafX2.2 : it's now possible to run lua scripts to generate things on the screen. |
| | 32 | We would like to get some input on this feature, and we think a good way to do that is by providing sample scripts along with the program. |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | But this time it's up to you to submit scripts ! |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | This contest follows our usual rules : |
| | 37 | -Entry must be sent to the mailing list (grafx2@googlegroups.com) |
| | 38 | -You have one month to send your script counting from today (that's until 17th of february) |
| | 39 | -Then there will be a voting period to select the winners. |
| | 40 | |
| | 41 | As usual there is nothing to win beside your name in the aboutbox of grafx2 and your script being included in the program. |
| | 42 | |
| | 43 | Please relay this information if you can, so we get a lot of entries :) |

| | 56 | == 20 August 2009 - Grafx2 birthday contest == |
| | 57 | Have a look at the [Contests] page. |
| | 58 | == 16 July 2009 - Grafx2 birthday contest == |
| | 59 | Hello world! |
| | 60 | This month (the exact date was lost, sorry :)) is GrafX2 13th |
| | 61 | birthday. We want to celebrate it with a little challenge. |
| | 62 | The idea is that you draw a picture and send it to us (send them to |
| | 63 | grafx2@googlegroups.com). Of course the picture should be made |
| | 64 | entirely in grafx2. There is no other constraint : you can go for strict pixelart (using only the freehand tool), scene style graphics, isometric, sprites, or freestyle using all the advanced effects (transparency, smear, ...). |
| | 65 | You have 1 month to come up with something, up to |
| | 66 | the 16th of August. Then, there will be a vote to select the winner |
| | 67 | pictures. There is nothing to win, the idea is just to have fun and |
| | 68 | create some great pictures with grafx2. Of course, your pictures will |
| | 69 | be included in grafx2 gallery page on the website... that is, if we |
| | 70 | like them and if you agree :) |
| | 71 | |
| | 72 | Please relay this info to anywhere you feel appropriate so we get many entries. |
