Plus more prizes for random entrants and referrals! (You can win just be telling people about the contest!) Over $750 in prizes total!

And if you don't have Paypal, prize money is also available as deviantART services, Gaia Online Cash, or Amazon.com gift cards! So, no matter where you are in the world, you can win something!

Damn thats a lot of scrilla! I'm interested to see what the prompts are going to be.

Prompts, stories, and the whole of the Character Database -- the new, snazzy, revised and updated character database with EVEN MORE CHARACTERS! A hundred characters, if I can manage it! (We'll see. I'll be happy to settle for fifty, or even forty, or... aw, heck, whatever happens, happens!)

omg XD XD You should make a wiki for them! I have no idea how people do that but it seems like you have enough info to put them in like an encyclopedia format <3

That's what I'm doing. I was originally just going to try and make 100 profile webpages (the Dr. M one you got to see was my attempt at organizing a profile for this contest) but then I decided it would just be MUCH less work to grab a wikispace.

Either way it's going to be work, but... wiki editing is still faster than using Microsoft Expressions and it's not like I need it to look massively pretty or anything! I had a wiki of my characters once, but we had a server hacking incident and it broke and I never bothered to go back and fix it.

I'm making an advertising banner for the contest right now, though. Much fun!
