Guide to Making Battles.

Battles are pretty fun but we need to establish some rules for them to work properly.

1- When making a new thread for a battle, you need to use a proper name for it.

For announcing a battle use this template.

Code:

[Battle] Theme

Ex: [Battle] Batman Sig.

For voting threads use this

Code:

[Voting] Theme

Ex: [Voting] Batman Sig.

2- Use this form in your first post to declare the battle.

Code:

[color=yellowgreen]
Type:
Theme:
Size:
Render/Stock:
Text:
Time:
[/color]

Ex:
Type: 1vs1, 3 way, FFA
Theme: Movies, Game, Anime, etc...
Size: GF limits (650x200) or other
Render/Stock:from http://planetrenders.net/renders/display...12&pos=199 (Optional, but specify what should be used)
Text: GFX Forums, Name, None, etc...
Time limit: When both users are done, 1 day, 1 week...

The first user(s) to accept takes the challenge.

3- After battle is accepted and both contestants are done, voting begins.

When making you voting thread. Be sure to include a poll with all of the contestants entries.
Use this as the options on the poll

Code:

Also make sure the time limit on the poll is 3 days.
Voting must be public. And if you participate in the battle, please don't vote for yourself...

The first user to 15 votes or the user with the most votes after 3 days win.
When a winner is declared, a mod will close the thread. When more users a registered those numbers are subject to change.
