Activity/Tutorial Week (May 9 - May 16) & Upcoming Contest

[Balloon]

Tutorial Week
So in an effort to improve our member base and activity, I'm officially deeming next week (May 9th - May 16th) Activity/Tutorial week.

During this week I will be submitting a tutorial everyday and posting more than ever. It would really be cool if you guys would help out too.

How can I help out you ask?
Simple all it takes is a few extra minutes out of the day to post/check the forum more then usually. Create new thread or even post you're own tutorials! Also invite your friends to join the community. Every bit helps.

If everyone helps out. I believe we can double the amount of active posters here, no problem.

Contests:
If all goes successful I will also throw an activity/referral contest as well as a design contest, with cash prizes for both! Not much money, but maybe $10 for each. I haven't worked out the details for the contest yet, but trust me it will be good.

Thanks for reading everyone, and I hope you guys all get involved .

I would like to point out that I am already fairly active
But I'll take my sweet precious time to try these tutorials, as a sort of "fool proofing" hehe
And also, I think this is an great idea, I will announce on twitter, and our facebook account, and everywhere else where I have posted advertisement for our site!

Yeah, it should be a good time. For the contests, what I'm envisioning is something like this:

1 point for every good post
10 points for every referral to make 5+ posts
-5 posts for every spam post you make
20 points for every quality tutorial you post
20 points for every unique resource you post
etc.

The person with the most points at the end of it whens the money. Maybe we'll have a runner up prize too and some other benefits. The details still need to be worked out, but I think it will do the community great if people actually get motivated by the $10-20 grand prize.

fuck the community, I'm winning those money myself
nah honestly, it seems like a push in the right direction, I have quite some textures, fonts, etc laying around, and I could round them up and post some resources.
And yes, it's a golden opportunity, and I do hope that we can get the word around.

Haha, if you think you can win go for it. I think Mr. Che might take you though . Feel free to post all the resources you want, but they're not going to count for posts unless you created them yourself and no other website has them. That's what I mean by unique I should have clarified. If you make a cool wallpaper that says cryptixgfx would count .

[Chridian]

damn
I gotta get working then
But yeah, it sounds awesome, and I hope we'll manage to get a lot lot more members and activity.

Lol oh I will! As long as I'm completely heal from the bad sunburn I got this weekend... I'll see what I can round up myself. If I get the time maybe I can do some photo retouching tutorials or something along those lines.
