Welcome to part deux of our egg design competition. Back bigger, better and badder than before.

The rules are pretty much the same as last time round with one IMPORTANT exception:

Entries from our first design competition will not be eligable this time round. So please do not resubmit old designs. They will not be counted.

DEADLINE: SUNDAY April 1st (no jokes)

A winner will then be chosen by myself and Rob. The winning egg will get a makeover from me in the Bad Eggs style and be featured in the game. The winner will be able to use their egg in the game (others will have to buy it) and will also receive a prize of 500 credits. We will also be awarding prized for second and third and a host of other runners up prizes in various categories. So get designing and submitting.

Rules

1) Entries must be posted in this forum thread not in a new one please. Please see below for instructions on uploading your image to this thread. There is NO limit on the number of entries per person.

2) Please provide a name (20 char max) and description for your egg (120 char max). Also let us know your game username so that if you win we can credit the account accoridngly.

3) We will not accept entries of a rude or derogatory nature.

4) Avoid designs based on an existing copyrighted character (ie. another cartoon character, game, or superhero). Many are not eligible due to their copyright.

5) Consider size. Huge extensions to width and height will not work and will not be counted. Generally speaking the main body doesn't change from egg to egg.

6) Reiterating point above. Please DO NOT resubmit designs from part 1.

7) The final decision is down to us.

8) We will accept entries from all artistic mediums. You don't have to use a computer. You can draw it with pencil, paint it, build it out of papier maché if you want. For those who don't have photoshop, this looks like a fairly decent online editor: http://www.sumopaint.com

9) Be supportive of all entries even if it's not your cup of tea. At least they made the effort and that speaks volumes. Not everyone is Leonardo Da Vinci.

For those who want a design template, here is the Hard Boiled naked egg to work from:

Good luck with drawing. We welcome every idea. Think hats and stuff to make it more exciting. The more entries the better.
