My died on 12th - obviously didn`t like the graveyard and ladybird shots I`d been doing - so now WTF am I going to do? At least I can acquire *quaddie`s for a while but that was my baby and way better than his
Obviously in need of a hug now and a visit from the camera fairy
Off to see what I can sell on ebay - anyone know where to sell stock that actually pays? (not that I`ll be stopping this gallery or devs just have some really great nature shots)

Favourite stock use of the week - by in

___C_O_M_P_E_T_I_T_I_O_N___T_I_M_E___<

Yep - its finally here Firstly will invite ANY medium that you wish to use...
Open from today until 20th August at 10.00GMT on so you have just TEN weeks!!!

The quote I would like YOU to illustrate is :
"There is a house down in New Orleans they call the rising sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl and me, oh God, I'm one."
Yes perhaps its not original but great song which I thought it would suit more of you guys

If you do a manip I would like one of my vintage people used - up to you which one/s though - one could be used as reference for traditional art too of course
Click [link] to see the choices Interesting to see the vintage postcards anyway
Have added some vintage shots out of sequence as seemed the sort required for this contest - will put missing numbers on in coming weeks...

The entry can be submitted by note subject "COMPETITION ENTRY" body Category and title with thumbnail number you are entering too please
Depending on number of entries will have several categories - as long as at least 3 entries in each one - will keep journal updated as entered... (Entries have to be submitted to dA after 1st May)
You can enter each category twice so plenty of leeway for you

Top winner will be decided by a panel of judges and then popular votes for each category to decide runners-up.
What do you win? Of course top prize will be one of my originals, sub, journal features, plus more... Runners up will each get a prize pack though obviously depends on popularity of the contest!
* Traditional * Photo-Manip * 3D & Fractal * Literature * Photography * Crafts *

STOCK IMAGE RULES:

Firstly don`t mind what style you use these for, as long is artistic - I actually enjoy macabre twists
Prior to using my stock, please be familiar with DeviantART’s FAQ rules, mainly
FAQ #157: Can I use things created by other people in my submissions?
"The use of stock imagery at deviantART is permissible if and only if you can provide a link to the source of the stock image along with some kind of proof that you have satisfied the terms of the stock image license."

1) Send me a link to your finished deviation either by note or comment to my original stock - rather than front page, thanks! (A fave would be apreciated )
I will add it my faves and may link in description too

2) Credit me and please use icon rather than just [link]!
Copy and paste : iconquaddles : Just remove spaces in between : : Easy

3) For use other than on DA OK but do credit me!

4) If used for DA print would be nice to sent a postcard

5) Be creative!

Many of the objects are in my possession so if you`d like different angle etc please ask cannot say I can do for sure but reasonable requests appreciated!

If image isn`t listed under stock images please ask I`ll probably say yes but do ask!
