2nd Annual Artwork contest ...

I am happy to announce I will soon launch the 2nd Annual Artwork contest. Hopefully this will become an annual event if it proves to become as successful as last year! Last year the contest gathered exactly 20 wallpapers / screensavers ... hoping to do better in 2003!

This will be another wallpaper contest, full details and theme will be posted in a few days on www.msxgamesbox.com - if in the meantime you would already like to sponsor the contest, feel free to contact me (phil AT msxgamesbox DOT com).
Sponsorsing the contest entitles you to:
* Get your name & website promoted on the contest homepage (on www.msxgamesbox.com).
* Be part of the jury to decide on the winning artworks.

In exchange, you are welcome to talk about the contest on your webpage and if you wish you are welcome to provide a prize for one of the winners (whatever you want provided it is MSX related).
I will accept new sponsorships until August 31, 2003. The contest itself will be announced in full details within a few days...

Already counting on you to take part in it!

I will do my best to make another entry. It will not be in 3d probably

I liked the stereogram though, even if it didn't end up well in the rankings but it was entertaining to see the mystery image

by the way, what WAS the mystery image?

You really want to check me up LOL ... it's all written over this page and site

^_^

No really. Never managed to see anything bot weird dots in those stereogrammes. But I think I have a good idea of what the hidden image is now

But you have to see it to believe it For those who want to give a try (be careful not to burn your eyes):

I have two sponsors on board who will give...

UniversMSX.com : boxed copies of Roadfighter and Rollerball
AG Software: brand new copy of Black jack hentai (MSX game released in 2002)

Don't forget I will myself give out two CD-Roms with all 2002 and 2003 artworks! That's 5 nice prizes so far! What can I say, join in!

The first artwork submission came in today from Egypt! read & see it all on http://www.msxgamesbox.com (Artworks)

Cheers

Phil

Cool! It would be nice to hear some info on MSX in Egypt!

I'll try to ask him what the MSX scene is all about there!

Just to let you now I have set-up a new page for the contest in the form of a weblog, bringing some more interactivity to the contest (incl. a simple small forum to discuss the received artworks etc...). Main language is English but there is also a section for our french speaking MSX lovers.

You can access it directly (bookmark it!) here:
http://www.webzinemaker.com/msxgamesbox/

Or through www.msxgamesbox.com and then follow the Artwork Contest.

A quick update...
