We haven't had a giveaway in a while, so here's the latest. The winner, chosen by Phobiac and I, will receive a prize from our box full
'o' Ima Robot goodies.
You can go there for examples of what we're looking for.
The task: Create, using MS Paint, a re-creation of one of the Ima Robot CD covers out there. Pictures of the actual covers can be found in the
Discography.
The winner's drawing will not necessarily be the most perfected or spot-on, but the one with the most creativity and originality as judged by
your fair and King Solomon-like Administrators.
Either email your entries to phobiac@imarobot.net (so he can post them here) or add your own link in this thread.
Contest ends 4/10 (next Saturday). Good luck!

Aw man, I really wish I had MS Paint draconian - 4-3-2004 at 03:33 PM
Are you on a Mac? They must have some similar program bundled w/ the OS.happysmilely - 4-3-2004 at 04:03 PM
Ok, is it all right if the album covers looks are altered (different but similar picture) to add the creativity or are we going for a similar look
alike one?
Only one entry per person right?
Despite my limited artistic abilities I might enter for fun draconian - 4-3-2004 at 05:19 PM
Alter all you want! And yep, one entry per bothead.avw86 - 4-3-2004 at 05:27 PM

Nope, I'm on a PC but for some reason the program isn't on here anymore. Plus I have really low virtual memory, so no room to install it. I
can't even get on to certain websites (including www.imarobot.com) because the memory's so low
