Duplicates Sign ups!

I'll make this much simpler for everybody.
Basically it's a game in whcih I post a picture and then you try to draw that picture as best you can. However, to make things a little harder you must draw them to my specifications, if I say no green you must not use green. If I say you must only draw squares then you must only draw squares to duplicate the picture.
You must have an art programme to compete. Paint will suffice but you may find it easier to compete with something more advanced.
You will need to host your own images for the duration of the contest, to do so you must upload them somewhere on the internet. Some good free sites to upload onto are :
http://www.1asphost.com
http://www.photobucket.com
http://www.imageshack.us
Rounds will last between 3 and 5 days depending on how difficult the round is.
The game will begin when I feel we have enough people competing. Four judges, other than myself, will decide on which three pictures look least like the original image (requirements will be taken into account). The three creators will be eliminated.
Because this contest is all ab out fun and drawing skills, you may not use images from the internet unless I state otherwise. This includes tube brushes on programmes such as Paint Shop Pro.
Free trials/Free imaging programmes :
Paint Shop Pro 9
GIMP
Macromedia Fireworks
The grand almighty super duper ultra prize is...not a heck of a lot
1st Place :- 15,000 NP
2nd Place :- 10,000 NP
3rd Place :- 5,000 NP
To sign up simply post the word Taco somewhere in your post, then PM the_dog_god saying "I want to sign up"
If you wish to be a judge YOU MUST SIGN UP AS A CONTESTANT. After you have done that send a PM to me explaining why you think you would make a good judge.

Well, I never heard of tacos because I live here in the UK, and I don't think we have them here. But I do know that I really really love 'em!!
Because... they taste good!

*observes that so far no one has fully complied with the signing up requirements*
No, I'm not signing up, since I have no artistic talent whatsoever.

i am horrible at art, especially on the computer, but I guess it won't hurt to tell everybody how much I love tacos, simply because they have nice, soft shells and that there is a whole fast food restaurant dedicated to them.

I think TDG made things too complicated for me... my brain popped out while trying to understand what he really meant, and I didn't really consider the rules. Tacos are much simpler than that, apart that I can't made them, but I still like them when I don't drop one on my best white shirt.
Anyway I believe Kaus don't like them, on the account on them being put into Neopian tacos, but I'm not vegetarian so I don't care.
If you're still reading, then be warned that if my application is rejected you'll have my ghost to haunt you forever.

I can give this a go, but not without my tacos. Tacos are the preferred food of gophers everywhere. I prefer nothing except meat and cheese on my tacos, and on a warm, soft shell. Do not deprive the gophers from their food, or they will hunt you down with baseball bats and beat you. Nothing can keep keep me away from that deliciousness, that is, THE TACO!!!

I like tacos because... I like tacos. Especially if it has Sour Cream, lettuce, tomotos, and just a dash of Tigersquash from Neopets. It tastes interesting, I must admit.
And, just for the sake of it. I love the_dog_god, I really love the_dog_god. =P Your my hero the_dog_god. Anything else I need to put?

Tacos are crunchy and my brother hates them along with my neopets and bori. I applied to be a judge.

MMM, Tacos. We make Tacos all the time, with our Old El Passo Taco Kit. I like my taco with letuce and tomatoes. I love Tacos because they are just so tasty, and crunchy

How long would the rounds last? A reasonable amount of time, I'm sure... well, it does sounds interesting, even if it's not crunchy and spicy like a taco. I really love tacos as they're lots of fun and quite tasty, and I used to love that Taco Bell dog... do you think you'll use those for one of the rounds?
