weekly challenge 64(?)

[emm]

I've noticed no one has picked up the weekly challenge, so I thought I'd make a suggestion:
Make a poster for your local zoo. It has to contain the text "visit the zoo" size.. 500x700 or the other way around.
If indeed there is a challenge going on and I missed it, just disregard this. :)

[rAyVoLvEz]

No challenge going on. Here's my go.

It's kind of simple, did them in my 30 minutes study break.

[rAyVoLvEz]

its cool.. but i wldnt want to get a scare before visiting.. :lol

[loky]

:) ye...you are right... the message isn't so good....I wanted to say something like" thrill seeking stuff"...well at least it has a message :P :) tks for opinion.

[emm]

I'm sorry, I came down with the flu, so sitting by the computer felt like climbing mount everest without being able to hold my own head up. lol!
Anyway, I'm not well yet but better, so here I am.
Ray, those are really nice, I especially like the typographics. :)
Loky, I agree with Ray, not very family-friendly. lol. You have plenty of time to do another if you feel like it.
I notice I wrote 500x700 for the size, I meant 400x600 so that's what mine is. :P

[fotodog]

nice work everyone.

I like the concept for the challenge

[loky]

:=offtopic: question for Ray... may you please explain how you did that square stile thing?...I belive very simple, but I can't imagine it without a pencil tool cimbined with shift key, guide lines and so many other complex things. may you lighten my knowledge? :=offtopic:

[actionfx]

Nice work! I'm off to see the dust bunnies... :lol

[fotodog]

It's amazing how many shots are done at zoo's each year.

I love this concept, because it makes us think about how we could apply those photos.

Traxter; :lol -get many visitors?
Loly; that's a whole lot friendlier, glad you took the time to go again!
Jusu; nice colors, haven't I seen those giraffes somewhere before? ;)
Greg, glad you like the challenge, that's what my thoughts on it were too, so many interesting creatures and photos to choose from. Unfortunately I couldn't make more than one. :(
I really like your poster! a lemure, I think? Very cute an weeeird.. :) Perhaps you'dlike to pick up the ball and come up with the next challenge?

[emm]

Nice entries guys. Zoos are a very interesting way to know 100's of animals and the way they live. I hope they keep animals well fed in a zoo and not in the open environments getting killed for people without an understanding that by killing them, we are exterminating our own sources of life. Imagine a world without animals and birds!

Emm: I will post mine in a few days, very interesting topic... Hope you feel better now.

[George55]

Here is mine......! A new born has arrived!

Thanks guys! :)

[fotodog]

Thanks!

Frank, WOW!! eye-catching and a bit of sarcastic twist. I'd love to see the photos that come from that. :lol

[cfire]

Thanks Greg!! I actually thought about doing some "polaroid" looking shots through the bars of people looking in but didn't have the time. :lol

[fotodog]

That would have been funny.

The idea alone is worth note.
:cool:
