:bulletred: Important Dates


This contest opens on October 2nd and will close on November 14th at 11:59pm PST. That's 6 weeks to submit a critique guide.

:bulletred: How It Works


Entrants will write a critique guide - either in relation to giving critique in general, or to critiquing a certain medium (photography, literature, photomanipulation, etc).

A critique guide is an article outlining how to give a good critique. It can cover general critique tips, tips for critiquing a certain medium, and even ways to make your critique come across in a nice way. The guide should be easy to understand and provide solid advice to writing quality critiques.

Guides should be uploaded into the deviant's gallery. The artist's comments MUST contain a link to THIS journal. All guides will be collected in a folder in the club's favorites.

:bulletred: Rules for Entry


1. This contest is open to all members of dA. Critique-It staff may also enter.
2. All guides should be noted to the club with the subject line "CONTEST 2 ENTRY". Inside the note provide a link or thumb to the guide. Remember! All entries must have a link to this journal in the artist's comments.
3. Guides submitted to dA before the contest opening will be accepted as long as the artist's comments have been edited to include a link to THIS journal.
4. Only one entry per deviant for this portion of the contest.
5. All entries are due by 11:59pm PST on November 14th.
