   What are the criteria being used? Does artistry weigh as heavily as originality or humor? Please give us less-than-artists a fighting chance!

   Wow… this is cool. Now let me see if I can remember what I learned in my high school art class. Lol. I’ll see what I can come up with. Cool idea for a givaway.

   We would definitely like to see creativity and originality take precedence over raw artistic talent.

   The last 3 blog entries sported heavy Nvidia advertising, is this going to continue in every post?

   can we photograph each frame and then compile it, or do we have to film a person doing the flipbook?

   “Draw an original StarCraft-inspired flipbook animation.” Does this mean i can’t draw a SC2-inspired flipbook or it doesn’t matter? Is there any restrict about the location where the prize can be shipped to? I’m currently living in vietnam.

   You can draw whatever you like as long as it’s related to StarCraft, either the original or the sequel.
   There are no location restrictions. Even if you’re on Aiur, we’ll warp it right to you.

    I’m amazed, I have to say. Really not usually do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and interesting, and let me tell you, you’ve hit the nail on the head. Your concept is actually excellent; the issue is something that not enough people are discussing intelligently about. I am very happy I stumbled across it in my seek something relating to this.
