This weeks contest

Win this game this week. We're back with another giveaway. This time we're calling out all graphic artist and podcasters. All are welcome to join in, but this will be a contest, not a giveaway. What we are looking for is everyone to submit they're best work. Be creative in "showing the love" for the Xbl10kclub. All graphic artists should submit either wallpapers (1600x1200 or larger/jpg.) or Zune backgrounds (240x320/jpg. only) that represent the 10k in some way. Take photgraphs, make a mascot, make your own logo, etc., and just make sure to add the 10k in there somewhere to be eligible. All podcasters and anyone else with recording equipment should submit short audio clips (1-3 min./6 MB max.) that relate to the 10k in some way. Write intros for our show, outros for our show, theme songs for the 10k, 10k jingles, sound bytes for the show, etc. Please keep it clean. Send all entries titled "I want Transformers" to contests@xbl10kclub.com, and make sure to add your Gamertag with your entry. We will pick our favorite, and we will announce it on 8/03/2007. Please keep in mind we are offering second place prizes, and we would love to showcase all the great work we're sent. Do your best, and your work might be featured on a future Zunecast. You could also have you wallpaper or zune background made downloadable for all to use on their PC and Zune. Here's some helpful hints from 360 Style.

-Use high resolution images when making your wallpapers. You can find these at teamxbox.com and various other big xbox sites.
-Don't stretch your images. By stretching images your wallpaper loses alot of its original quality.
-If you are good at hand art , feel free to create your wallpaper by hand. Earlier this year Luigi L. won Crackdown because of his custom drawn wallpaper.
-Don't steal wallpapers from other places and call them your own. We see and know all.
-When cutting out characters or shapes from images to use in your wallpaper make sure they are not left with jaggy edges.
-If you would like some design tips before submitting your final design feel free to post your work in our 360 Style Graphics Forum. Other community members will give you plenty of constructive criticism and tips to help you perfect your art.

Good luck to you all. We are looking forward to seeing some of the great work that this community is capable of.
