ALL members can vote and comment, whether they have entered a contest or not. However, please do so in an honest and sincere way, as we are sure you will. Your comments just might make a difference to the artist.

All members have an advisory voice in choosing the next topic for a contest. You can go to the Choose Topic page to vote for the topic you would like to see for the next contest. However, NoA has the final say about this choice.

A nice, 'clean' image depicting the topic and addressed to the general public. Any reference to sensitive subjects, such as nudity, drugs, violence, etc. has to remain extremely minimal, tasteful, and really conveys the topic, but is not typically allowed. We shall give examples when an image is legitimate, and any image submitted that leans in any other way at all will be removed.

The chosen title or single word topic is the basis for an artistic interpretation, either literally or metaphorically. If known by the participating member, even the content of the work may be interpreted. The resulting 3D-rendered image must convey that interpretation.
