I'm glad. Wanted to try something unique that I was hoping no one else did for an entry.

She's my elementalist's younger sister, and quite... special. She's really nice if you get to know her... and have had a few drinks... and are a cruel person too. But I just wanted to try to do something a bit more comical for her entry, and humor is subjective. So I'm glad my elementalist was worthy enough to be in the contest

Good luck to all the others! I can't wait for the competition to start

I'm sure this will be very interesting. And just to remind those that are part of this do not use the [img] tags if the picture is a large size unless you use the thumbnail size. Please use the thumbnail or just post the link and everything will be fine.

Also good luck everyone and keep this a nice clean fight. =P

Congratulations and good luck to everyone who made it! Looking forward to competing with such beautiful girls.

A group shot would be nice, but like LadyNilene pointed out, it's going to be VERY hard with the time differences. Still, maybe it'd be good to at least try it some weekend? As many girls as possible?

Eagerly waiting for the first assignment.

Congrats to all the girls who made it!! (Not too excited that my smexy mez didn't make it over a couple of monks with the same hair do, no offense), but I'm still happy for all that made it and I wish you all good luck. Kinda makes me wish that I entered my little monk with the same little buns hair do.

Yay! This is my first time posting, I've been lurking around lately, and I know that a lot of people are upset about the decisions, but there is no reason to get upset about it to Nil! She has done a wonderful job aside from the typos here and there. I know that right now people aren't really comfortable with our top twelve, but I'm sure with time people will like them as we have. None of us were happy with the results, especially when we just realized there isn't an Elonian character at all!!! I think two of our finalist submitted secondary entries for Elonian characters as well, but they decided to go with their other choices. Anywho-I hope myself, Nil, and Setsuna are able to live up to all the hype!!! XD

Gema you heffer! lol

Thanks to RTSfirebat for pointing that out, I keep forgetting that the pages keep getting lost, and I remember applicants being messy because the information for that was hard to find...So with that, always check the first post on page 1, I will always update that post to keep everything up to date! With important upcoming/past dates!

As for Geishe...

Lets not confuse anything! The judges scores were meant to be anonymous! Who's to say I'm judge 1??? Gema could be judge 1! lol We went with the anonymous factor because that's how its done on the show, although you hear the comments, you don't know who scored what or by whom. Cause I know you guys are all excited, happy, and thanking us for choosing you guys, but we also know as soon as you get eliminated, that's gonna change lol. So anonymous the scores stays...for now... lol

We're currently working on getting our instructions for Photoshoot 1 out, so that might be out later today, probably tomorrow. Also, someone asked about the rules about photoshoots...don't worry about that, everything will be explained in the instructions of the photoshoot assignment. I will post that info here, as well as send them to you via email/pm.

Thank you!

lol, its mam.

But anyways, NO, no photoshop at all! Just screen print, crop however you want, send original along with a crop version to me for judging. That's it. No photoshop, no fraps, no other outside sources. Of course more info will be included in the actual assignments itself, so just look at that, and if there is any confusions or other questions, then you can get with me!

Thanks!

Congratulations for passing the preliminaries, but now, the real competition begins.



The Top Model Franchise has graced the world creating an unbelievable phenomenon! Created by Tyra Banks and originating in the United States of America, Top Model has been an international success being recreated in more than ten other countries (Philippines Next Top Model, Holland's Next Top Model, Australia's Next Top Model, etc etc ). So there is no wonder why it has crossed over into the world of Tyria. The show's mass success does raise the question, where do Top Models truly come from?

For your first photoshoot assignment, you are to answer this question by taking a screen shot that represents your character's place of origin and to promote your campaign. With all the recent hype over the Nightfall campaign, it will be refreshing to connect back to important areas and key events that occurred during your journeys in your character's place of origin.

I realize that many of you will have "Role Play" stories for your character's origin, but for my purposes, please stick to your campaign.

After taking and selecting a screenshot, please send a non-edited full sized original along with a cropped version (however you like) to me with answers to the following questions. (questions will vary from week to week)

1. What campaign is your character from?.

2. Where is your screenshot taken?

3. Explain your screenshot

The deadlines for this screenshot will be on Friday December 15, 2006.

Here's an example of what I expect.

EXAMPLE SUBMISSION:

Full sized original screenshot (I would prefer as an attatchment so that it will not lose quality)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...cess/gw114.jpg

Cropped version (any way you like, how you want your picture to be perceived)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...114cropped.jpg

1. My character is from Tyria/Prophecies.
2. I took my screenshot in Old Ascalon.
3. One thing that really came to me in brainstorming over what place was really important and unique for the Prophecies campaign was the Old Ascalon area. I say this, because I think this is where the dynamics of the story really begin, but more importantly, I feel this is where the Character Selection screen came from (the original "camp-site" log in screen). I really wanted to reminisce on that, so I had character posed in a more subtle way to convey the dark/serious tone that was set after the searing. I also chose to wear the original armor, because it is Ascalon armor which also contributes to something that was unique to my campaign, although it has been replicated in other areas, it originated in Prophecies, plus its called Ascalon armor anyways.

Rules:
1. No screenshots within the cutscenes.
2. You may always take screenshots with another individual, but always include their name within your submissions.
3. You may not use Photoshop or any other outside source that may enhance your picture in any way and give you an unfair advantage.
4. You must submit your entry before the deadline.

In breaking of any of the rules, you set yourself at high chances of being eliminated depending on the severity of the rule.

And that's it. I will always show an example of the photoshoot I am giving, just to give you guys some inspiration and to show that what I'm asking isn't impossible. If there is any questions or confusion about the assignment itself, please ask, anything else might not be something I can answer, but do not hesitate to ask anyway.

You guys have some extra time, so I want you guys to really impress us, be creative! Have fun and Good Luck!!!

I can't really give an answer to that, but I will say what Marsun said, if I can totally perceive Prophecies in it, than go for it! I know youre one of our most creative contestants, so I'm sure you might have something a little extra, but only time will tell...just use your better judgement!

The only thing that will be edited is the judges scores/comments which will be all anonymous.

Remember, you have up till December 15, 2006 to get your submissions in! So take your time, but of course you may turn in your submissions at any earlier time if you feel you nailed the shot early and do not need extra time.

Thank you! lol, it was sooo hard to do, trying to replicate everyone's character to match as close as possible, and then get the proportions right...lol but i think it came out nice, so yay! Also, that picture is our official TNTM fade out picture! lol, unfortunately, as eliminations occur, I will fade your character out of the group...until we get our top three! lol

YES! It is! TEAM EUGENA all the way!!! I just hope Melrose doesnt win...she is...too much to say the least. lol Anyways, i'm glad youre a fan of the show! and you recognize the other top model shows, and know about real models, Gemma Ward is amazing, but i dont think anyone will ever top Inez or Daria.
