Thank you so much for making another contest Firn~<3
I kinda really want to enter this because of the prizes, even though I have absolutely no talent for drawing, entering would give me a slightly better chance at winning one of the prizes than if I didn't enter..
All entries not hitting this criteria will be disulfide without any further notice.
Does this mean we will not be notified if our entry is not accepted?
Also, is it supposed to say 'disqualified'?
Thank you again and good luck to everyone entering~

I think comparing a sculpture and a dressed-up fish is going too far.
Sculpting is pretty similar to drawing - I'm not sure how to explain it properly, but in both cases, if you try to compare the same thing depicted as a painting or as a sculpture, the effect will be comparable.
Although I admit my mistake - it is clearly stated on the front page that you should draw. I still think this limitation is unnecessary, but that is just my fancy, and I'm just an average user. I have no say in the matter. It's your contest and your rules.

Yes, that's supposed to mean disqualified. disulfide better be a proper word, or there is no excuse for my spell check add-on not catching it. 
Yes, that means, that we will not be notified. I do not think I am asking too much of people when I say "Please, if you want to take part in the contest, read the first page".
If someone doesn't go through the effort of reading the contest information and then sends me in a , let's say, black-and white pencil scribble, I don't think I have to go through the effort of replying to the mail and pointing out to the person to read the contest information, something that should be self-evident from the beginning.

I don't want to bother you anymore than you already have been Firn, but I see that you don't want any camera photo shot pictures. I don't have the technology to scan a picture to my computer. Is there any way that if the quality is good from taking a photo that the art can be accepted? Sorry again. Thanks ^^

Technically it is of course possible to take a photo of art with a camera so that it cannot be told apart from scan, but the art can only be accepted if you accomplish that, and that is really difficult. Maybe you will find some way to scan your art? Maybe you have a friend with a scanner, most school should also have scanners, and, if I am correct, most copy shops also have scanners.

That's rather disappointing, but thank you for responding. I guess I will have to dust off my pencils and drawing pad to see if I still have any talent left.

I will look into that, thanks. I will try the library too, since I don't know if school will be open anymore. Going to have to beg mom to get me out of the house. Hmm...Thanks:)
