Suggestion: long illustrated stories
« on: May 08, 2011, 06:22:28 PM »
Greetings, friends!

Every contest I can remember had a limit on the number of panels in a submission.
While I understand the reason for this restriction, what I'd like to see for once is a contest with no such limitation.
Also, due to the larger amount of work required, it would have to be an open theme.
Call it "illustrated stories" or something similar.  Give us marathoners an outlet to show our work, why should the sprinters have all the fun?

Peace,
Lurker.

Now this could be a very interesting concept.

As long as the parts of the story on each cap isn't too long I think this is a great idea (although I'm more fond of short stories).

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not sure on the restrictions so I will have to discuss this with admin. There may be a reason they do it that way. I will get back to you on this. We may have to do a special board for this idea.

Greetings, ffriend Ashley!

The current limit on the number of attachments per post is 25.
However, I believe that longer sequences can be split into the replies.

Peace,
Lurker.
