Well, here's my newest contest. So far my last one has been wonderfully successful, and I wanted to try something different with this one. so, here it is:


For this challenge, you will take one of three songs and Draw / Paint / Scribble / whatever some form of visual art to represent it. Note: You may do photography, but it better be good :p. Also, it doesn't have to be 2D. I'd say more, but i'll let you folks think of it.

Ok, the songs:

The Finish Line, by Snow Patrol.

What Sarah Said, by Death Cab For Cutie

and
There's A Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven't Thought Of It Yet, by Panic! At The Disco

~~~~~~~~~~~~
One should probably note that I love all of these songs, and I do truly hope you do them justice.

Now, the prizes will be as follows:

1st Place: 500 points and 6 critiques on the art/prose/poem/etc of your choice
2nd Place: 300 points and 4 crits
3rd place: 100 points and 2 crits

all entrants: 1 crit

the deadline for entries is
Wednesday, The 13th of June, at 12 midnight [GMT].

Good luck!

Can I use GIMP, or something like that?

Yes, all image editing software is fair game.

NOTE: I just realized how absurdly shot I made this contest. The deadline has been extended one week, and is now Wednesday, the 20th of June, at 12 midnight (GMT)

I don't think (but don't really know for sure) that there are that many artists on this site, which might explain the lack of responses. Also with the bugs and such some stuff got side-tracked.
