I remember having this previous years, but I haven't seen it mentioned yet: is it okay to have picture-in-picture shots for things like interiors/trapdoors/moving parts etc?

If this is the case then I think a lot of people will be building upwards to achieve a similar effect. :/Aliencat wrote:tiberium_blue wrote:In the vig category, am I allowed to move some elements around in each photo so that the 3 photos tell a sort of mini-story?So that looks like a no for vignettes.architect wrote:You can do this for the Crime and Punishment and Miscellaneous categories.Can you tell a story with the 3 pictures? Not like a cartoon: just one scene, but with 'moving' figs?
You can use that minifigure as another minifigure in the miscellaneous category.Jelmer wrote:Can I use the custom minifig for that entry as a minifig in another entry (misc)?
Definitely no. Vigs are meant to capture a single moment in time.In the vig category, am I allowed to move some elements around in each photo so that the 3 photos tell a sort of mini-story?
No. Your contest folder for grading must contain only the three 800x600 images. You may make another folder with larger images and link to that in a forum thread.Also, most people have broadband these days, any chance on getting the 800x600 dimensions raised a bit?
This is only acceptable if it shows a moving action like a trap door. Categories such as the hideout could need this feature.I remember having this previous years, but I haven't seen it mentioned yet: is it okay to have picture-in-picture shots for things like interiors/trapdoors/moving parts etc?
Just to expand on Ben's post a little, a good vignette tells a story all in one scene. It's not just a playset built on a small base. For instance, look at these:tiberium_blue wrote:In the vig category, am I allowed to move some elements around in each photo so that the 3 photos tell a sort of mini-story?
Please pm me with more specifics regarding your entry.Elephant Knight wrote:Okay, I have a question for these admins. Can I print out a few words, and stick them to some bricks? I don't have a single one of these, ( http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3070bpb09 Any kind) and I NEED something like this for an entry.

Yes.Is it permissible to have more than one enemy, though?
Well, after thinking a bit, I found out that I will not need to print out anything, so false alarm I guess.architect wrote:Please pm me with more specifics regarding your entry.BenElephant Knight wrote:Okay, I have a question for these admins.

Yes.CastleLord wrote:I have another question. Is it allowed that the knight in the act of chivalary entry has a squire with him that stands on the side and watches?

I'm going to go out on a limb here, and guess that Ben's previous answer will work just as well for you.greenglo wrote:For the Secret Hideout catagory, is the category restricted to Bulls, Forestman, and Wolfpack? Would you be able to use dwarves as they are usually secretive and isolationists?
