Goal:
In this exceptionally non-anonymous contest, your goal is to show an artistic representation of your username. Be creative and use whatever necessary to tell us how you got your username and what it means. Vote on creativity and talent, not on the actual uniqueness of the username.

pixelkid: I personally think the requirement should have been to use a username that ISN'T yours to keep the anonymous nature of contests...but oh well. (41 days ago)
jaescoe21: i agree with pixelkid. I'm not even sure i could do mine (41 days ago)
Keiley22: can't do my name lol... oh wait.... I could do a typography image lol (41 days ago)
Mozzafan07: Something new to do...........always fun to try. (41 days ago)
RayTedwell: This could be a fun exercise, but I dont see how it can be a contest. If you do a good job representing your username people will know exactly who you are. (41 days ago)
CMYK46: I'm passing on this one, and wondering how it was even considered for a contest topic. Can I vote for it to be replaced with something else? (41 days ago)
downoffthedragon: I don't think that I can do mine because it would require a pre manipulated image because I'm not that good with the drawing. No, wait. I think I have an idea. (41 days ago)
hereisanoop: if i work with my user name, any chance there it be removed? (41 days ago)
ponti55: The contests would've been just as good if people had to guess who you were representing, and not just yourself.. besides a lot of people have usernames that can;t be represented by images... (41 days ago)
Akassa: I says "your name" and not ohers so we have to work on our usernames... but then our entries won't be anonymous at all O_o (41 days ago)
Drivenslush: wow.. this is starting out as a great contest Idea.. I love the absence of fear.. and a lot of NEW choppers right of the bat... (41 days ago)
lchappell: Don't be skeered...lol (41 days ago)
divair: What about when one's username is his/her real name? So they have to fall back on typography (if it isn't off topic) or just to give it up... (40 days ago)
DigitalDreamer: I agree with ponti55 about guessing who it is rather than giving it away. Would of been fun to play. Also if you just use your regular name here is an idea, http://www.behindthename.com/ and do art based on what your name means. (39 days ago)
jawshoewhah: I actually think this will be interesting, I mean every contest I've ever voted on was anonymous until now. However, I will say to everyone, I may like ya and we may exchange thoughts and what not but it's not going to change my vote. Probably just my comments. (39 days ago)
Suicidesquid: woah lookit that my contest made it o.O cool (39 days ago)
swordfish: this is awesome contest so far.... (35 days ago)

Author Description:
I made this one quite some time ago, just for fun, and it just felt great for this contest. =)

So, what I did:
1. Create the 3d 'wlado' model in 3ds max and textured it [altered the textures in PS before that]
2. Imported into photoshop, added the background sky
3. Did some burning, dodgeing, contrast, and other tweaking.
4. Add the clouds around (brushes)
5. Flattened the image and added warming photo filter.

And that's it, hope you like it =)

I've been fried, I've been baked, I've been mashed and I've even been burned, but I almost always remain CHIPper.

Idaho is were I grew up and when the auspicious time came for me to choose an internet name (waaaaay back when the internet was all shiny and new), this is the name I came up with. ID is the postal abbreviation for Idaho and t8r is an abbreviation for potato, something Idaho is famous for.

Gees, an abbreviated name and I sure am long winded...
