"TO RECREATE OR REPLICATE MOVIE POSTER COMPETITION" Official Rules. The conceptual idea is to either "Recreate" AND OR "Replicate" AND OR "Do Both Recreate/Replicate" the monthly theme into a Movie Poster using a Preexisting Movie Poster or guidance photo! ***THE MAY THEME IS 'PARODY'!!!!!*** The Specific Rules and Themes of this competition will change each month. *So, always read the specific monthly theme rules! Please submit all Movie Posters for this Competition in this Folder: [link]  NOW PLAYING! "Screeners Group News - MAY":-Screeners would like to create a new journal skin. Something simple, but elegant - fun but not too busy - and obviously, something that would reflect our group theme. - Screeners would also like to create a new group logo, that could double as the "Screeners Pictures" logo for this year's EMP contest. -If you think you might be interested in either or both of these projects, please note the group, or mutt2000. Right now, mutt2000 is pooling most of his DA point money towards the contest, so he don't have much to offer, but he's sure he could find some way to compensate the artist- either in features, or possibly some points if he can work it out. Either way, you would certainly get credit in everything Screeners used the designs for.
