WritersBlock has announced the new Monthly Writing Contest! The theme this month is Culture Shock, read the thread for more info. Previous winners will be announced shortly.

F-777 has announced an Album Art Contest for the "Beyond the Horizons" compilation CD featuring various Audio Portal contributors!

ForNoReason has set up two new charity accounts. You can give these accounts a private credit on your submissions to share a portion of your page revenue and Flash Ad earnings.

Current charity accounts:

Yellow Ribbon - To assist injured service members and their families.
Breast Cancer Research Fund - Works to achieve prevention and a cure for breast cancer.
Child's Play - Donates toys and games to children in hospitals.

Child's Play is also the beneficiary of our Power of Three event, where artists, programmers and musicians have teamed up to make games. Upcoming games will appear on the release schedule.

Some things you may have missed in the Portal this week:

Cool happenings. Didn't know about the charities. Am looking forward to the power of three results. Also writing fragmented sentences.

Will those games have medals?

In ancient days, men looked into the stars and saw their heroes in the constellations. In modern times, we do much the same, but our heroes are epic men of flesh and blood.

So, are the charities credible? At least here in Sweden, we have systems to separate the scams from the serious ones. I am not making accusations, just being reasonably skeptic.

Split my Hooker-money with some charity?

Oh Ho No, my good sir - I think not.

Today gaming; tomorrow the front page!

I imagine if I do this every week, I'll eventually be a Digg power user and my links will be law.

oh yeah, just as with UFF a few years back? may be that's part of a Danish corporation, but it's still fishy like hell. i personally don't trust nay larger charities... i prefer to give money to street-artists if i am to give any charity. especially musicians.

So will the power of three deadline be extended or not? Will all the game be launched together or in sequence? More details on the Po3 needed please.
