Honourable Mentions :

Dialectical Dessertism: The ContestIt has long been debated just how cake and pie came to be bitter enemies (and occassional allies against other desserts). Some say it started in the Middle Ages when butter was first used for both unequally awesome desserts.
While others say it was when cake became a CV and the power went to her head!
At still yet, there is the rumor that is started when pie failed his sobriety test and blamed it all on cake for keeping him out too late.
But maybe none of those are the real story. That's where YOU come in.
What's this Contest About?
It's pretty simple. You're going to answer a very simple question. What is the origin of the pie/cake debacle? How you go about doing that is completely up to you. But since you have complete creative freedom to write history, we're expecting some very interesting (to say the least) renditions.
What's Going to be Judged?

Both poetry and prose will

Emoticon TournamentAfter months of waiting and anticipation, the "Secret Contest" I had planned is here! I bring you, the Emoticon Tournament!

As some of you may remember, !DryBones44 hosted an epic tournament called the “Multi-Round Emoticon Drop Out Contest”. http://web.archive.org/web/20110815070308/http://drybones44.deviantart.com/journal/41567949/

The tournament was a blast and there were many participants! And I am going to revise it!

So, here is what’s going to happen:

Details:

After all the participants are gathered, I will use random.org to match the participants up randomly. I will then select a topic, and then you and your opponent will face off and make an emote based on the theme. You will have 1 week to make the emote, and then our judges will decide the winner of each match up.

If you win your match, you will move on to the next round, and face off another winner

Summer Seaside ContestUs founders have been very inactive lately so to make up for it, we'll be holding an awesome contest for you guys .
Theme
Participants should submit photos/paintings/drawings related to summer, nature and water (can be ocean, sea, lake, anything).

Deadlines and such
You can submit from this day on until 1st September ! However it must be in this folder: http://beautifulscapes.deviantart.com/gallery/43739209 . If one fails to submit their photos there, they won't be taken into consideration. Btw, there's a limit of 5 photos per participant so only post your best work!

Judging and prizes
Our co-founder *Calisaroa and I will be deciding, however we'll have polls through which members can vote as well. If, say, 60% of members vote Picture X which the two of us don't particularly like, he or she will get a popularity prize consisting of their works being fea

OC Summer Fun in The Sun Contest! Cash Prizes!Time to get this second contest of the year started! The first one I held this year had a decent turn out, but I'm hoping even more people enter this one. What can I say, I enjoy seeing the drawings people come up with for my contests.
If you couldn't tell from the title this contest involves original characters and summer. This will be a "draw yours and my original character" type of contest in which you show the characters enjoying summer. Each entry must have at least one of my characters and one of your characters for it to be eligible. Your character can be a completely original one or an OC from a popular existing universe (pokemon, naruto, bleach, etc) as long as it is your own character. It can even be one that you make up just for this contest. Unlike my last "yours and my oc" contest you will only have two of my OCs to choose from. This is mostly cause they are the ones who I've really been focusing on. For whatever reason I've never made character sheets for eithe

Oh wow, man. I haven't had a Sub in a couple years. I really appreciate the kind words said about my photo, the great gift, and the publicity. And now that all the entries are up, I've got some looking about to do. Thank you so much!

Well done to the winners!
All great shots. I particularly like the honorary mention, certainly not the obvious choice but shows that "culture" is not just in art museums
