But here they finally are: our third edition of the Manip Challenges! 
I hope there will be as much participation as last time (though I have to admit, reaching over 30 entries in the middle of the vacation period might be a bit optimistic - I suppose you've been spoiling me so far 
) In any case, it's about having a challenge and not about breaking any participation records, so let's just get it on 
I can't wait to see all your gorgeous entries! 
) and/or the originality to create an universe in harmony with my conception of the fairy things in relation with the nature.
2 per person; 1 in each category. You cannot have 2 in 1 category.
"Winged Element" what does that mean?
Show me your other self, the one that you usualy hide, the one that talks to you inside your mind, the one you wish to be, or the one you created yourself.
RULES
Bravery
Start Date: June 26, 2012
End Date: September 15, 2012
Theme: Bravery
Your mission is to create a manipulation that somehow expresses bravery. You will not be given anymore information than that. How you choose to portray it is up to you and only you!
Judging: This contest will be judged by me. I will not accept other judging offers.
I will not be judging by personal preference nor will I choose any "friend" to win. I will be judging based on technique, originality, and effort. I will not go easy on you if you are a beginner, your art will be judged just as fairly as the others.
Rules
Sorry guys, I guess I should have added this earlier, but I was being pressured to get off the computer.
> Manipulations only
> Slapping a filter over an image is not acceptable. You must use multiple images
> Any animal may be the subject (I don't care if its a friggin okapi, as long as it fits the theme)
> If I have any suspicion about a stolen image, I will investigate like the smexy detective I am.
> I will only post completed entries, not deviants planning to enter.
> You may enter as much as you like, though I will require 15 different artists to enter before judging.
> I will not be collecting the winners' entries - These manipulations will remain yours and you may do as you wish when the contest ends.
