Just plow on and hope it sounds good in the end.
I've hit one for my second entry and I've nearly finished it somehow.

I think I have something.

Funnily enough, same here. Just completely redone the Chorus of my second entry and now it sounds amazing!

Sigh....I'm trying to be patient, but people keep forgetting to link back to the original artist so they get credit :/.

Haven't been on NG in forever, but saw this and had to participate since I have another couple weeks.

Already found my image and started my song... Just waiting to hear back from the artist.

Cool, good luck!

I wish people would just read the rules....sigh.

So, I thought I'd post this here since I was directed from the contest thread. The artwork I want to use is from an unscouted artist. He is most definitely a newgrounds artist and submits his work here, asks for feedback, etc. though, he hasn't been scouted yet. There is absolutely nothing in the rules that prohibits use of his artwork for this contest, but I want to be clear about this before moving on. Is it acceptable or not?

As I said before, I prefer a scouted artist that's more public in the art portal. If he isn't scouted, someone can scout him, you could always try to get someone to scout him.

Sounds a bit discriminatory to me, but whatever, it's your contest. Also, it's generally bad form to ask to be scouted, and from my understanding lowers your chances. I'd really like to make something for this, but it looks like I won't be participating

Got the perfect idea for my third and final entry! I've started it roughly but I am waiting for a reply from the artist now. It's going to sound more stereotypical of the genre I compose in but it's going to be a very fun concept to compose and sing for!

Ugh fine, just so everyone is happy, I'll allow unscouted artists. I'm going to hide in a hole now.

Not trying to be a jerk about it, I just... really want to make musics for this ;_;

Thanks man. I'll get started on my piece! :D

D: oh no! I hope it all works out for you. I'm looking forward to it :)

I just changed that rule so people would be happy so doesn't matter now.

I guess I won't be able to finish my track in time - too bad. :/ University eats up all my time..

Anyhow, good luck to you all. I've already listened to some awesome tracks!

Don't really mind if I place or not but its cool that I could connect with another artist and share ideas and opinions on each others work(audio/visual) with the purpose of creating something.
So, thanks

D

Great reason to join, and you got the right initiative! You're welcome :)
