Virtual Villagers - The Secret City™
Comic Strip Contest

Guess what time it is? It is time, once again, for another LDW sponsored contest! This contest is going to be fun and the prizes are great. In this contest, we would like to see you put together a VV3 comic strip. That's right, a comic strip, centered around your little villagers from Isola's north shore.

How to participate:

• Take a screen shot or make your own drawing of the game, adding captions or other amusing content of your little villagers.
• Tell a mini story about VV3 in a cartoon format.
• Attach your screen shot to this thread. Instructions on how to do this are posted HERE.
• Dialogue or thought bubbles are not required.
• Please follow all LDW forum rules and posting guidelines.

Rules for the contest:

• You may submit up to 3 entries. If you should submit more than three comics, anything after the third one will not be considered and may be removed from the contest. So choose wisely.
• Your comic strip should not be more than 6 panels long. It can be as little as 1 panel long but definitely not more than 6.
• The contest will end at 12:01 AM, PDT, on August 1, 2008. To find out what time Pacific Time is, go towards the top of any forum page and follow these steps.
• Click on "My Stuff" and then on "My Preferences".
• Towards the bottom of the page, locate "Current server time is:".
• Subtract 1 hour from that time and you will have Pacific time.
• All entries will be judged by the LDW staff members and the winners will be announced on or before August 7, 2008.

Prizes:
Grand prize:

A Nintendo DS™ and a copy of Fish Tycoon™.

2nd and 3rd place winners will have their choice of any gear from LDW's office (T-shirts, mugs, notebooks, or whatever stuff we can find around the office!)

As an added bonus, the winning entries will be posted on the Virtual Villagers homepage at http://www.VirtualVillagers.com for everyone to see!

So put on your thinking caps and show us what you are made of.

How do you make a comic strip?

A comic strip is just a picture or a series of pictures that tell a story. It can be serious in nature or it can be humorous. If you would like to get an idea of what a comic strip for Virtual Villagers would look like, try going here and see some that were made before VV3's release.

This is a classic comic strip

I love doing comic strips, I will get working on 1 as soon next week.

Well, this is an animation and it's my first entry. There's no dialogue. I literally spent about 3 hours making it. I'm proud of my work

VI Jr.'s main skills are Snooping around the alchemy lab,and making the Guiding hand angry.
I fixed five years in five seconds.

Nice Jazzo. I have a question. Can you post a picture here that you have posted in another topic?
