GFF Christmas Cards

Hello all you artists~

Christmas season is coming quick, and that leaves me with a few weeks before I have to get my cards going.

Last year, I did prints from some guy I didn't know. It was pretty neat.

I found some rad images this year, but I am not satisfied, as it really lacks a Gamingforce touch.

I know the community here is chock full of awesome, awesome artists. As such, I was hoping maybe some of you could do some mock-ups for the cards this year, to give it an EXTRA community flare to it.

Now, I wish I could say I can pay you a whole lot of money, but the reality is I can only afford a few bucks. I know it's a lot to ask for, but I am hoping someone would be generous enough and season-loving enough to offer up a few images or ideas for images to go on this year's cards.

You'll get worldwide exposure! =D

Discuss? Post what you come up with? If you need any specs, let me know. They're really not tough to fit into - usually 300dpi is all I really ask. Everything else, I can do to save you time. <3

Jam it back in, in the dark.

This sounds like fun, actually. If I can get out of this stupid artists block/slump/thing, I'll definitely try to make up a few for you.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

All I need to know is the image dimensions~

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

EDIT:

Full Bleed Size
7.28" x 4.72"
2185 x 1417 pixels

Document Trim Size
7.17" x 4.61"
2150 x 1382 pixels

CMYK in 300dpi

It's not as intimidating as it looks!

Also, I'm hoping to get the cards submitted by November 2. It looks like that's when I did them last year, so.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I've not taken any shots for... I don't know, a month now, but I might pick up an IR filter and knock something christmassy together

I was speaking idiomatically.

Wow, Magi! That's lovely! Thank you!

Do you have the .psd or equivalent? They like to have those to mess with the fonts and all, if need be. There may be some formatting I need to tamper with, too (for the printing guys)

Anyone else?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I don't mean to be a dick or anything, but was "holidays" intentionally spelt wrong?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Possibly it's a pun on the word "Holly"?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Holliday holly days sounds like an interesting pun to explore, although that was unintentional. I just screw up. <.< I really can't spell to save my life sometimes.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I can probably spare some time and do this (for real, this time). Sounds cool.

So hey guys.

I need to get my order in by Friday, so if anyone has anything else they want to throw out there, feel free.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Man, I wonder what would really get artist motivated to get stuff done. Life gets in the way, sure, but if people are reminded in a timely matter I think they'll do it. <.<

I was thinking about doing some pixel art thing but to be honest there really wasn't a whole lot of time allotted to do this, Sass. Just sayin'. I do look forward to your wonderful Christmas card as always though. <3<3<3

I understand. I am not bitching. It was just an idea, and I wondered if things could be done in that time frame. I am not an artist, so I don't know how long these things take.

I wish I could have seen the pixely thing anyways, regardless of where it'd go. =D

Cards have been submitted for printing. It takes 2 weeks to even receive these so ha ha ha, I made it by the nick of time.

Thanks so so so so much to Magi for all the work and the generous donation. I won't forget it! <3
