First Round Theme
Disney.
Har har har. Sorry, Disney-haters, I just saw this theme on a site I was browsing randomly, and thought it'd be fun for a first round theme. And also, me knowing the theme 10 seconds before everyone else is not going to give me or my team an unfair advantage.. so don't even go there. :]

First Round Rules
+ Your gang leader (the first "board" in your gang) must send me one PM with all her team's entries by Wednesday, May 24th. The timing is a little weird this time.. I didn't want to make the last day Friday the 26th - Monday the 29th, 'cause Memorial Day would probably screw that up.
+ But anyways, what this means is that your gang leader's entry MUST be "postmarked" by the 24th, or your team automatically loses the round. I would suggest getting it to them at LEAST a day or two before then.
+ Gang leaders: If the day comes and you do not have all the entries, send me which ones you do have, so your team at least has a partial chance of winning.
+ Participants: do NOT drop out, show anyone else your entry, etc. :] If you're done with your entry early, PLEASE send it to your gang leader early.. then we can start early. Wee.

More Rules
+ You are not allowed to show your entry to ANYBODY outside your gang, whether they are part of another gang or not. Period. Endofdiscussion. The reason is that otherwise, the whole concept of anonymity would be lost.
+ Entry size must be 500 * 200 or smaller.
+ Animation is allowed.
+ Do NOT put your entry in your signature, do NOT put your name on the entry, etc. etc. etc. The reason is anonymity, again.
+ Gang Leaders: When PMing me your entry package - a. Title your PM correctly, and b. Identify whose entry is whose.

Format Rules
+ Nobody save myself will know whose entry is whose, and for this reason, I will not be voting.
+ First entry to 10 votes is the winner.
+ Once someone has won - I will announce in the topic who the contestants were, etc.
+ All gang members will be REQUIRED to vote in all voting topics, endofstory. Including ones where the entries will be from their own teammates. (At the end, I will disregard these votes).
+ Absolutely no dropping out. :]

Gang Leaders Only
+ If you receive all entries early, feel more than free to PM them to me in ONE PM early. The sooner I get all four, the sooner I'll start the round.
+ You are REQUIRED to track the PM. (Ask me if you don't know what this means).
+ I will not be opening ANY of the PMs until I have received all four. This means if that you make a mistake (e.g. put the same image in twice, screw up names, etc.), your team will be penalized for it. So be careful. :]
+ ALSO, since I am tracking it, you MUST have EXACTLY this title: "Insertyourgangnamehere Entries Round Insertroundnumberhere."
+ Don't screw this uppp. :]

Other
+ For Indiv. & Gang standings, please check Pinned Topic (in this case, soon to come).

I think I covered everything.. but if you have any questions, ask here.

Whee. Nice theme, Nisha. xD
I'm going to start on mine soon.

[ChocolateCraze]

I just want to be clear about the theme - it can be anything related to Disney? So it can be one Disney movie, more than one Disney movie, or even the Disney theme parks?

By the way, I love Disney.

[NISHA LAMHEAD]

Anything at all related to Disney. :]

[elainn.]

Ooo. Yay.
I'm soo gonna lose to Criss.

[NISHA LAMHEAD]

AHEM.

*Discussioninothertopiccough.*

:]

[Dorkie L]

you know that part about "dont put your name" could I put my gang name in case of jockers?

[NISHA LAMHEAD]

No.

If you're honestly worried about jockers, put a small sample sign in the corner, or something.

[ExoticRain]

I assume that there wouldn't be any artist comments, is that correct? People might guess from someone's way of talking or describing a graphic.

[NISHA LAMHEAD]

That is correct.

I don't think that this theme would require a lot of explanation, either, though..
