I swear down if we're hunting each others eggs through the forum pages... >.>

Nice round idea though. :)

Does it have to have a normal egg-shape? :razz:

Ohh good, we get until next Tues.. I'm going to be away starting from tomorrow until Monday night doing various things.. I'll either do it tonight or Monday night :)

Does it have to have a normal egg-shape?
Normal egg-shape? Like an oblate spheroid? :P

This reminds me of the egg-shell painting we did loooooooong back xD. And 6 days is just sufficient! Yay.

^_^
/me hugs db :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
can i submit extras just for funnn? :P :D :D :D :D

Does it have to have a normal egg-shape? :razz:

Ahh, good question. As the theme is Easter, then I would say yes to that question. Although if your design looks almost egg-shaped (oblate spheroidal) or even spherical then I will be inclined to accept.

Can we use letters? :p

OK, actually, I'm not sure about something... does the picture have to be on an egg, or can the eggs be part of a picture?

egg egg egg egg

I love that word XD there's something about the way it sounds.

All you have to do is draw one egg template like the below and put a design on it using different colours and/or pictures.

You may use this template to design your egg :)

dbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb...can we use words in the pic? por favor? :D :D :D :D and i gotta pm u bout something weird.

Lol, I really thought that I'd explained it well, but obviously I haven't :P Oh well, good questions floating around :)

can we use words in the pic? por favor?

Yes, you may use words on the egg.

thanksies sir db, king of the eggs (hawt name for him isnt it? ;)

*runs off to draw a hawt egg*

Poached or boiled? :twisted:

Poached or boiled? :twisted:

Scrambled :razz:

Scrambled

That's how mine looks already :/
Atleast it isn't an omelette yet xD

Haha, I had to read your spoiler by quoting you though :eek:

How's everyone getting along with their drawings?

Lol I keep forgetting. :P I'm going to do something this weekend.. But I wouldn't expect anything amazing from me ;) :P

I dunno why I chose this idea...

tsk. it is NOT scrambled :( i take that as an insult...

and my egg is hawt ;) :D

How's everyone getting along with their drawings?
Hmm. I had an idea but it's losing a lot in the drawing of it unfortunately!
It's hard trying to 'personalise' it as well as use the colours for the bonus points.....
I'm a lil busy for the rest of the weekend, but I should be able to finish it Monday.:razz:

For this round you have to design, colour and personalise your own Easter egg.Do you mean we have to indicate on the egg that it is ours (with a name or a picture/symbol)?

Well, that's how I read it. :smile:
I'm guessing Part b of this round is either a poll for your favourite egg, or a match-up of who's egg is whose, hence the personalisation........but then again, Deebs probably has something completely different up his sleeve.....

... but then again, Deebs probably has something completely different up his sleeve.....

Like maybe hide the personalised eggs around the forum? :rolleyes: :razz:

HAHA.
I won't be doing that bit then! *twitch*

Do you mean we have to indicate on the egg that it is ours (with a name or a picture/symbol)?

I know this might give the next section away, but it's probably best not to place your name on the egg. You'll see why :razz:
Maybe personalise wasn't quite the best word :rolleyes:

Noooo... I personalised it and it looks nicee x(

I hate doing random drawings with no meaning (to me) whatsoever... *gets thinking cap on again :(*

Edit: have another idea :D

I think I can guess what you have drawn and it seems fine. You can personalise it but it is completely up to you. If you have put your name directly onto your design, it would be advisable to remove it.

/me guesses the next round is a poll plz :P

Oops, before I totally forget...

This round is now closed.

Thank you to everyone who has entered this part of Round 3.
The second part will be up tomorrow cos I'm tired right now :)

:0 :'( i forgot to pm the egg to u db.....phooey, 4 hours late..
