Is there anyone who could answer my question, please? ._.
Because I soon want to upload my mosaic and if it's not okay, I must do something else, because it's standing beside my mosaic on the same paper x.x

I have a question about this rule:
The Final Project photos you take MUST include your username and Virtuadopt somewhere in the photo. It CANNOT be digitally added afterwards!
Is it sufficient if on my mosaic it says:
"VA Summer Contest
User: jeanne_darc"

or must it really be "Virtuadopt"?

Thank you ^^

Hm...

Does a 'domino-carpet' count as a mosaic?
Here is an example:

VA is just fine :)
sorry for the delay

Papilusion, Catslover, and Tigerness-,
COLLAGE
A collage is basically the idea of a mosaic and can yes look like a mosaic at times but really has more of a different meaning. Normally you would take different types of medium from magazines or wherever that have to do with a subject that you are working on and put them together either to form an image or just place them together to tell a story (or not). The person looking at the collage would then understand what the artist is trying to project with the art of all the images combined.
Spoiler:
Image
With the Mosaic you are trying to project the art with the image pieced together....You start with an image and go from there....with a collage you don't. You just create a new whole. A collage can be abstract, it can be messy it can be whatever it wants. Mosaics are meant to be decorative designs, images, not abstracts, not messy.

as for the two entries
I have that covered ;)

I think that if I allow the sand, I have to allow the dominos
BUT
remember that the image HAS to look exactly like the Virtuadopt dex image, NOTHING added, removed or changed
please try and keep to mosaic standards ;) not domino standards ok

I don´t know if this question was asked before (i can´t find it..) but is it allowed to draw a pokemon totally and let it look like a mosaic with markers?

You may do so, but the image has to look like the pokemon from the Virtuadopt Pokedex with nothing added nor changed.

That is fine as long as I can still see the picture of the pokemon and know what it is and the colours :)


EDIT: I added one more day, because I realized that there are 31 days in July not 30 and I had been going on the idea that contest was ending on Tuesday and had been telling people so :S
Sorry if this has caused any confusion
