Digital Art Competition #49: 2012

This is the first Digital Art Competition that this website has had in nearly 3 years. It's long overdue, don't you think?

The next topic is: "2012". Be creative! What does 2012 mean to you? whether it is the year or the collection of numbers, what do you think of when you see that number?

You MUST have made the image yourself.

Length: Competition closes Friday March 23rd, 2012.


Voting lasts five days after close of competition.

Good Luck!

I will get the ball rolling...

I should add, this is the first time i have played about with Photoshop in absolutely ages. I will likely change this or amend it at a later date.

I think this could be an interesting competition. 2012 is wide open for interpretation. Especially when considering that 12212012 is touted as the next "doomsday". I'm sitting here trying to remember how many doomsday's I've gone through in my lifetime already.

Just a reminder that this competition closes 2 weeks today. Hopefully we are just experiencing a slow start and there will be a few more entries before competition closing date.

It was the only dimension of an object that I could make that contained exactly 2012 pixels, that fit the dimensions of the competition.

That's exactly why i like these competitions. It is really open to interpretation on what you would do for 2012.

Not that i doubted you, but i had to check to see you'd done 2012 pixels

Yup confirmed, 503 x 4 = 2012 pixels. Looks like Mark can do his math

You'd certainly hope so being that he's... well, at a more advanced age than us...

Hate to burst everybody's bubble, but Julius Caesar started the leap year in 45 BC, which means there has been roughly 514 leap years since it was added. The Mayan calendar doesn't account for the leap years, which means by their calendar the world ended over 7 months ago.

Also, I'll be entering this one if I've got enough time, sounds like it'll be a fun one.

way too more advanced than us... well, more than you, I am not too far from him hehe

Kind of interesting that I made my entry post on March 12 2012.

One more week. Hopefully we'll have at least 1 more entry before competition closing date.

This competition has closed. I will likely get a poll up by the end of the weekend.

Just to let you all know, not forgotten about this. Been busier than usual lately, will put up poll soon.
