With this in mind, I'm excited to usher in a new Hive Creative Challenge! The subject matter is SPRING. You can create anything that inspires you from the season. This challenge begins today and runs until March 31st, midnight PST.
Here are the rules:
1) The piece should be a new piece that we have not seen before here on TheHive. You may have as many entries as you wish.
2) Create a blog (post) about your piece - the subject line should contain the words "Hive Creative Challenge" - (you can then add whatever you want to the title) - IMPORTANT! Please be sure you do NOT "post to group"... use your blog (post) feature at the top!
3) Add the link to your blog post as a comment in this blog. We will automatically highlight it to let everyone see your work for this challenge. I'm also creating a group just for this challenge, so you can add the post to this group too - this will give a central location to view all of the posts. You MUST post your entry to the group, or you will not receive the points. If you are having problems adding the blog to the group, check out this video tutorial: Adding your Creative Challenge to the Group - A tutorial
4) Let your friends know about the challenge. We will determine the top 10 by number of 'likes'. Because 'likes' are anonymous there can be no hard feelings about votes. You can vote for more than one piece, but you cannot vote more than once for an individual piece. (you must be a member of TheHive to vote - as nonmembers cannot 'like' or comment on posts)
5) The top 10 posts will then be given to an official judge (anon) to determine the winner! The winner will be announced on April 15th.
Each entry will receive 200 Hive points. The top 10 finalists will each receive an additional 250 points. The single winner will receive 1000 Hive points AND a $50 Amazon gift card.
*All points will be awared every Tuesday, starting Tuesday March 8, 2011.
