Contest: VOTE August 2017 Art Challenge — Final Poll

[Michael]

Sorry for the delay on the poll, guys. Originally I was going to wait to hear back from @BorgMan, because I wasn't sure what he wanted to use as his final entry. But to avoid a longer delay I'm just going ahead now with the more likely entry and post the voting thread now. @BorgMan, please contact me if you want me to change your entry in the poll.

This month I challenged the forum to visualize a Star Trek video game that never was. Many fine and highly creative pieces were submitted and are presented below in an equalized thumbnail fashion – click on the thumbnails to view them in glorious high-definition!

A million thanks to every participant! And now: happy voting!

Those are some tough choices.

 

[BorgMan]

Woops, sorry, bit of a hectic few days. I'm fine with this!

 

[Klaus]

...tough choices, nice work all!

Congrats @M

^ Thank you, @Finn! And many thanks once again to everyone who voted for my entry. I really do appreciate it. This was a fun month with many fine contributions.

As for the next contest, I'm kinda out of ideas for a new theme, to be honest. And I would love to get suggestions from you guys. Does anyone have a good idea for this month?

 

[Finn]

I always wanted to see some kind of news page like the front page of a major paper.

 

[Mapper]

What would the contestants like to see?

 

[Kaiser]

Congrats M

I really like the idea and immediately have ideas in my mind, but I wonder if it defines the parameters of the end result too narrowly. I prefer challenges that let every contestant decide for themselves what kind of medium their entry will end up. I don't know, what do others think? Also, like @Mapper, I'm very curious what the other contestants would like to see.

You could just call it "current events". That way it could take the form of a headline, or merely an image from a newspaper.

Man, sorry i missed the vote...i would have voted for M as well, but Orac used the setting for my favorite game, Galaga... would've have loved to see more of it!

You know, that sounds like a good idea. I'll give it some further thought and post the new contest tomorrow.

Here's the new contest.
