So, every detail is not fully flushed out still, but there have been some changes... Check the rules (the changes will be in bold) and now there is a prize section

The subject of the First Mighty Ducks: The Animated Series DeviantArt Club Contest is.....

New Battle Gear
For Over 10 Years, the Ducks have had the same digs in combat. True, toy makers changed them up with each set, but we Rarely see alternitive gear in fan-art and fan-fiction. Your mission, if you choose to except it, it to re-design one or more of the Duck's Battle Gear!

Rules:
* The Design MUST be fully your own! Do Not use battle outfits from people's fan-charcters or perviously made alternitives.
* The entries may be either in art form or written (ie: a story about why a duck/ducks would need new outfits and what they would look like). Depending on how many we have of each, we may do 2 section to this contest. If there are at least 3 (seprate artists/writters) entires in each catagory, I will split the contest into 2 parts, one from art and one for fan-fiction.
* There will be "paper dolls templates" of the ducks made in the coming months for those who wish to use them instead. I do highly encourage everyone to draw the entire image themselves, but you may use them if you wish. sorry guys, there wasn't time for this one... maybe next contest though
* You may turn in as many entries as you wish
* Please only have one duck in each entry submitted for the art section
* The Design MUST but a full body design, ie: no waist up portraits, it must show the entire body. You may still keep the "signature boots" as part of the design.
* Images must be colored! Basic line art will not be expected.
* Fan-Fiction Must come with a rating (ie: G, PG, PG-13, R)
* This is for Canon Characters ONLY!!! Please, for both art and fan-fiction, do not use fan-characters.
* Backgrounds on the images may be added but are not nessassary.
* If you wish to donate a prize, you still can not enter... However, if you feel like you would wish to donate a prize of any sort you will receive a character image (duck or otherwise) from *Bards-Tale as a "Thank You" present.

Prizes:
First off, BIG thanks to ~naon for her very wonderful donation of 2 images as prizes.
Terms and details of the prizes will be noted to the winners after the contest.
Prizes stand right now with the idea that the contest will not be split between Art and Writing. This section will changed if we get enough entries to split the contest.

Other Bits:
* Deadline: August 30, 2007! September 15th at Midnight, Arizona Time
* The Voting will be done BY NOTE! This will try to limit the "Popularity" Contest factor
* The Rules and everything else are subject to change as needed!!!!
* I will post entries in the shout board with image links between now and the deadline, but I WILL NOT SUBMIT the entries to the club until the deadline and then they will be all together.

Well, I think that is all for now. If you all have any questions, ask!!! I need to know if I left anything out.
But Enjoy, Create, and Be Inspired
