ArthurSpectatorHello SPfreaks!
We would like to extend to you our latest contest. With the upcoming 20th Anniversary! shows approaching later this year, we want to celebrate the band that has brought us so much joy over the past two decades. The contest will revolve around this central theme; 20 years of our favorite band, continuing to push forward with their unique brand of music. So what do you have to do?
– Design a concert poster for a 20th Anniversary! show
– Design an accompanying flyer
– Design 3 individual pin or iron-on badges and/or backstage passes
– Design a bumper sticker
– Design a celebration shirt
– Create a setlist for the show, utilizing exactly 20 Smashing Pumpkins songsThat’s it! We realize this contest is larger than previous ones, so we have decided the submission timeframe will be a minimum of two months. All submissions will need to be sent or uploaded to SPfreaks by October 15th, 2008.
Why would you bother to do all this work? Well, we have determined the prize will be the equivalent of $500, in either Smashing Pumpkins memorabilia or cash equivalent. The prize is rather large (compared to previous efforts) as we want all submissions to be serious and their absolute best.
You may submit your designs by emailing them to the SPfreaks team at @spfreaks.com">spf-contact@spfreaks.com (if you are a guest, you will have to become a member). Your email address must be the same as used to register, or your submission will be rejected. Make sure to include your username with your submission. You may also send in hard copies to SPfreaks if you wish. Address available upon request.
Rules:
– You may not submit partial entries. All requirements above will need to be submitted as one entry, or package.
– You may submit up to 3 times. Again, no partials. Each entry must contain all 6 elements listed above. Each entry must be distinct from another, with the only exception being the tracklist. (Please change the songs around at least).
– The badges/backstage passes can utilize any combination. (3 of one kind, 1 of each, etc.)
– You must create original artwork. You can use similar fonts, and similar album imagery, etc, but these cannot just be purely copy and paste; rather an interpretation of the artwork using your unique style. Also, please do not submit any other copyrighted imagery without providing appropriate documentation to support your right to do so.
– To avoid pixelating if enlarged, the larger your files, the better. SPfreaks may consider reproducing one or more of the submissions.
– Only Smashing Pumpkins songs will be allowed in the setlist. No solo or side project material.
– By entering the contest, all entrants grant an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to SPfreaks.com, to reproduce, distribute, display and create derivative works of the entries in any media now or hereafter known. Authorized Parties will not be required to pay any additional consideration or seek any additional approval in connection with such use.
– As above, the deadline for all submissions is October 15th, 2008.The contest has officially started. Let’s show the Smashing Pumpkins the love and respect we all share for giving us so much more than music.

ArthurSpectatorGeezz! How nice to wake up and read this! Holy moly, 500 bucks!
I’m 1 of the judges, so I can’t compete anyway. Sux.
Am I allowed to be creative anyway and show it here?

2008.08.05 at 6:19 am #21737
bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatori didn’t know we were alowed to post on here.
super cool contest, super cool prize, like the best ever.

2008.08.05 at 6:22 am #21738
ArthurSpectatorNo, I guess everybody has to either email or send it in. But I’m sometimes in a creative mood too you know. Maybe I’m allowed to show off here.

PipokaSpectatorthis contest is great !
let’s see if i have some time to think about something… i don’t have a good image software, i have to find somethingbut this is great!
-
2008.08.05 at 10:07 am #21741
SuperlordspamulonSpectatorAwesome!
I will get to work straight away
*edit* Are we allowed to submit multiple entries?
-
2008.08.05 at 11:21 am #21742
SuperlordspamulonSpectatorFor anybody without decent image software, try . It’s free!
-
2008.08.05 at 11:42 am #21743
SPfreaksSpectatorYou may submit up to 3 times. Remember, each entry has to contain all the elements, so if you’re up for it, we’ll take em!
There has been some confusion over the word badges. You can design little metal pin badges, or iron on cloth badges, and also backstage passes. Any combination will work. 3 of one kind, 1 of each, it’s up to you.
Also, the judging criteria will be kept private, but will be revealed at the time of judgement. We can tell you the judges will be 4 members of SPfreaks.com, and could potentially include more later as the contest progresses.
Any more questions, keep them coming!

SPfreaksSpectatorPlease understand that no \"official\" entries shall be posted in this forum. Any such entries shall be removed from said competition and discarded.
However, SPfreaks members can participate in this thread by uploading any contributions they may have, as they are not allowed to officially participate in the competition.
Thanks and have fun!

2008.08.05 at 12:11 pm #21745
ShannenSpectatorQuestions:
1) Is there a specific size of artwork that we must meet for each element?
2) What’s the image format that we are allow to send?
-
2008.08.05 at 12:22 pm #21746
SPfreaksSpectatorWe will leave the sizing up to those participating, remembering as stated above:
If the image is too small, it probably will not be considered for replication in the future. Also, each member is responsible for submitting through email. If you have an original file that is too large, just condense it for the judging and hold on to your originals. We can always ask you for these later.
.jpg, .bmp, .pdf, .doc are all welcome. Any other extensions may prove impossible to open without standard software. Please submit accordingly.

SuperlordspamulonSpectator.jpg, .bmp, .pdf, .doc are all welcome. Any other extensions may prove impossible to open without standard software. Please submit accordingly.[/quote:2tot2wn1]
I assume .png will be allowed. If it can be opened in MSPaint, it’s pretty much standard. Plus, it’s a lossless format.
Also, anybody using .bmp should be shot. The quality is just as good in .png and .bmp are unnecessarily huge filesizes.

AnonymousSpectatorA small tip for you guys and guysesses that might be handy sometime:
Save any .bmp, .jpg, or .gif (whatever file extension) as a .jpg picture.
Next, right-click on the pic and ‘Open With’ into the Paint program.
Without doing anything else, just ‘Save’ again and you’ll see a noticeable difference in the pic’s file size now.
Sometimes much, much smaller… Very useful for new Avatars on forums, etc.

And to clarify we just are doing images/designs or you can produce the real product right?

gees so much pressure[/quote:1z05ku8l]yeah, images/designs. or you can make a real one and scan it in or send it in. we’d prefer everything to be digital, just wanted that option available.
and there is no guarantee that ANY designs will ever be reproduced in any fashion whatsoever, but the option is still there.

AnonymousSpectatorYou know the backstage pass should have been separate
and the pins,bumper sticker and iron on, should have been grouped together-oh well
doesn’t matter really
I’m ecstatic-I feel sick to my tummy because of my excitement level-weird -
2008.08.06 at 10:31 pm #21766
bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatori am excited, but i am at a loss for ideas. my creativity has been zapped, i haven’t even worked on any of my stories lately. i think i might try drawing this evening, or maybe some photography this weekend, maybe that will jumpstart my mind.
i just want it to be great.

blueczarinaSpectatori’m still thinking on this one too. i’m going to have to get going on it though before school starts because after that i will have other art projects- ones that effect my grade. i’m just trying to think about what kind of imageray to use for a 20th anniversary type thing.

it is brilliant. i am so glad it finally hit me. i was wondering when it would.

2008.08.28 at 11:40 pm #21786
AnonymousSpectatorso we can use band images, but what images-the ones from their specific site
wouldn’t someone who took a photo of the band claim copyright issues somehow? I am lost on this whole band images and logos stuff… -
2008.08.29 at 12:17 am #21787
manillascissorKeymasterbasically reggae, use whatever you want. i don’t think any legal issues can arise, as we are not making a profit by utilizing these images, rather, the complete reverse. we are giving money away.
i think whatever you want to do is fine.

WHAT!!! possibly more..are you guys serious? I think what was already mentioned was a pretty extreme prize. Regardless, I am completely enjoying this experience and finding a bit more about myself through this process..
I would say I owe it all to spfreaks and sp, only because if it weren’t for the music I wouldn’t be so inspired and for all these wonderful people on this site and sp.com
this has been an uplifting experience.
Thanks again guys. I don’t even give a rats arse if I win or lose because I have learned a lot about myself and others.
you all are an amazing bunch:)
you’ve already changed my world just by being a part of it through the site…
I am sure everyone feels this way…
spfreaks has got that sp magic going on:) -

manillascissorKeymasterDarkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorize y’all’s neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse’s shell
The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of forty thousand years
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the thriller[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScXfgKzDDsY[/youtube]

Hi stvmddltn, welcome here! Where are you from? We don’t know yet where the gigs will be held I’m afraid, even the PumpkinsMediaMilitia doesn’t know that yet. As soon as they know they will inform us, and yes, hopefully they will tour outside the US also (but my hopes aren’t that high, as I think they said somewhere before it will be an US only thingy). -
2008.09.16 at 11:44 am #21865

And this is a November only tour I am assumimg?? -
2008.09.16 at 2:12 pm #21866

Doubtful-DellaSpectatorMy entry is still in my head. I thought the contest Ended Oct 1 and I was freaking out that I didn’t have it submitted yet. I’m so relieved. Although I was wondering about the winning person getting tickets in time. For me I’d want to go to the DC show on the 12th (love to go to both due to the awesome format) but I can’t see it really happening at 60 bucks a ticket when I live in FL…. But it’s a good date because I was thinking of flying to WV that week and either fly into Dulles or Baltimore

Use any logo or image you like I guess. I would do that anyway, if I were allowed to compete in this contest. [/quote:1sm0fnlj]So is that an official yes on using logos and images from albums etc? The rules in the beginning stated that it had to be all original renditions of it. I just wanted to know for sure because as I was putting together my sample idea digitally I thought I might just leave it like it is instead of having to do a whole painting

scotopic_luxSpectatorEntry # 31 just came in… How many more to come? [/quote:3m59dd4j]
I was just thinking this morning, I wonder how many entries there will be.
31 so far? Is that more or less than you were expecting?It sounds low to me as a number, but when I think of the fact that my entry must have taken around 70 hours of work, then I think wow, 31 people spent that much of their time working on their entries – that is a lot.
And for the judges I bet it will be hard to pick from what ever number you get, but the more there is the harder it gets!
Also, is this the way it works – you guys narrow it down to a shortlist and then pass that shortlist onto the PMM and do they have final say or what is the go?
-
2008.10.15 at 10:21 pm #21941
scotopic_luxSpectatorooh darn i just realised the poster i submitted was not my final version, i had made a few final alterations – so i am going to re-send my whole submission – sorry if it is late and sorry for the inconvenience.

It depended largely on the number of submissions, but 30+ may be too many to send to PMM. However, if they want them, we will send them all.

Exactly, you hit it right there. We are around 35 entries now (depending on what came in in hard-copy, we still need confirmation on that), and let me tell you, we are truly ENJOYING this! You have send in the most awesome art works for Smashing Pumpkins that I have ever seen, I’m smiling like a madman downloading tons of MB of your works!I will make a list here today with your SPfreaks Forum nicks and the number of entries that we have found for each one of you. Then you can confirm we are right or complain if we are wrong. Problems will be solved, don’t worry, everybody gets a fair chance to enter and send in (again). Then we start judging things with 4 SPfreaks all over the world, which takes a few days, as you might understand. Then some or all of your works will go to SP.com for the final judgement, which might take another few days. Stay tuned, because somewhere inbetween I will try to post all your works here, for you to enjoy! The rest of the news will be provided by manillascissor. Keep an eye on him too!

2008.10.17 at 9:55 pm #21979
manillascissorKeymasterHow about a compromise?
We can make a thread solely for some contest \"highlights\", so people can get a flavor of what has been submitted.
However, to keep from biasing the judges’ voting, NO JUDGES WILL VIEW ANY COMMENTS LEFT IN THE CONTEST HIGHLIGHTS THREAD.
There are four of us, and we would just have to go by the honor system here. We can tune in, only after submitting our final votes.
If the judges agree, I think it would be cool to share some of the entries. I’m BLOWN AWAY by most of these!
Judges-Please don’t respond to this thread, or to the one I’m about to post. Thanks!

SPfreaksSpectatorThe first scores of SPfreaks.com are in!
Firstly, for your information, the 4 judges of SPfreaks.com each give 1 to 10 points within each of the 8 categories (3 individual badges/pins/passes + 1 bumper sticker + 1 poster + 1 flyer + 1 shirt + 1 setlist). By doing so they each have 440 points total to give away. The highest score 1 member can get from 1 judge is 8 times 10 = 80. Then, finally, the scores of the PMM Team and Billy Corgan will be added to the points already given by the judges of SPfreaks.com. For now, let’s start with the first SPfreaks.com judge. Here are the points!

[/quote:294aessu]So this is the score from only one SP judge and we are still waiting on 3 others? I am confused with how the judging works. Shouldn’t the lowest score be 8?
Congrats to the top five. I just about fainted when I saw my points. Thank you for liking my art. I knew Natascha would be up there! You go!
Can’t wait to see the rest of the results. Thanks for posting this

SPfreaksSpectatorSince there is some confusion about the points being given, a little extra information.
Each individual judge takes a top 10 within each of the 8 categories, for example Bumper Stickers. There are 35 entries in the category Bumper Stickers, so it is already very hard to enter the top 10. Then the judge decides who gets 1 point, who gets 2 points, etc. up to who gets the 10 points. Like this 25 entries get 0 points, the top 10 of Bumper Stickers is getting points between 1 and 10. Then the judge works his way through the other 7 categories in the same way.
And that is why some members receive 0 points for their complete entries, when not any of their submission(s) within a certain category is mentioned in the top 10 of that category. Someone with 13 points for example can have 9 points for the Poster and 2 points for a certain Badge/Pin/Pass and another 2 points for the Setlist. The other 5 entries (the other 2 Badges, 1 Flyer, 1 Bumper Sticker and 1 Shirt) of this member did not reach the top 10 within its category at the same time.
Anyway, how do we get to 440 points then? The total points to give away for each judge for the category Bumper Stickers is 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10=55, as explained above. And since there are 8 categories, each judge has 8 times 55 points = 440 points to give away. Hopefully you understand now!
And remember, as the other 3 judges can have completely different points of view, the whole scheme including the top 5 can dramatically change after the scores of each judge are known. Let’s wait for them!

scotopic_luxSpectatorIt does make a lot more sense, thanks for explaining again
Can I ask, did the setlists get rated visually? Because I thought you just wanted the songs written down that we would like to hear, as and extra to the artworks, I have never seen a set list that hasn’t been just black type on white paper haha.

I’m pretty sure the set list doesn’t have to be anything more than just a set list. It’s choice to decorate. I didn’t do anything fancy to mine, all I did was type it in tafh font

This is correct. Just like some people sent in tshirts with back designs. That was always optional, but extra points are not given for providing a back, just like extra points are not given for a pretty setlist.

Really? Thanks. When I saw a few of the entries I was blown away. My husband liked mine but there were others that caught his attention just as much/more.

The spots were made with a liquid masking fluid.
Then I digitally added a texture boarder and the text.
The text is every SP song listed here on their website under albums.Other parts of entry:
