View Full Version : "Most Beautiful Woman" Art Contest




Shrek
Aug 8, 2002, 12:10 AM
Ok, here's the deal:

1. Find as many quality artistic photos of beautiful women that you can and post them here.

2. DO NOT post any nude/suggestive content in this thread. As long as a picture is in agreement with the rules of this site, then it is fine. Use common sense. Anyone who gets a picture deleted as a result of it's content is automatically disqualified from the contest.

3. No links, no virtual girls, no fakes, and no duplicates please.

4. Only one woman per picture, except in the case of twins, triplets, etc.

5. Any pictures submitted after 100 replies to this thread do not count.

6. After 100 replies have been made, pick only one (of your own submissions) that you would like to use in the contest.

7. We will then have a vote in another thread (created by me) on who's picture is the best.

8. The person that the submits the picture that is voted the best combination of art, beauty, and overall picture quality wins! As a reward, you get bragging rights.

9. These rules are subject to change, be taken away, or added to, without notice.

Here is the first submission:

Just for the record, you are not required to post pictures of the same woman every time:

Since all of your posts are suggestive, and none are artistic, have you disqualified yourself?

By the way, my vote is for picture number 58.

No I haven't. Suggestive means suggestive, as in a picture that gets deleted because of it's content. If you don't think they're artistic, then that's your opinion. Perhaps I should make myself more clear on this by editing my original post.


By the way, my vote is for picture number 58.

It's not time to vote yet. Go back and read the rules, carefully.

D***it! I forgot to post a pic in the above thread. Could I please have a moderator delete the post before this one, since I'm the one that started this thread and it's only fair. Oh, shoot! I don't know what I'm talking about, do I? But just for kicks, this is what I meant to post:

Ah, hell with that rule, I got rid of it. If I screwed up and stay in it's only fair that do the same for everyone else. If I break the rules again, though, I'm finished for good.

Just try and make the most of this 100 reply limit, folks. Here's another beauty:

Dalene Kurtis: Playboy's 2002 Playmate of the Year.

The last two and this one are of Natalie Portman. She plays Padme Amidala in the new Star Wars films.

Anyone else have any good pics?

Hey Srek... are you trying to get the first 100 posts yourself so you make sure you win? Heh... I found you out! Busted! You're righ, she is gorgeous though ;)

Well here is my entry...
I was saving it or the web in photoshop... I decided to have a little play with the pic, just for fun. Let me just say, the 'liquify' effect can be put to good use for any of you guys out the that like, uh, 'ample' cleavage ;)

I also have to say that if this photo doesn't win, I will be convinced you are all blind. Sure, Sarah Michelle gellar is a fricken hottie, but she's never done any real good shoots :( My life will be complete the day she does ;)

Aug 8, 2002, 02:50 PM
Yup, the marketing of "Britney the consumer product" is getting kinda cliché-ridden these days, and without something like a "quad-G5" class song (or movie) soon, the ratings will certainly normalize… Still, the girl in the picture is what I'd like to see next time I go to the beach 8-)

It is impossible to find and post a photo of the most beautiful woman in the world.

This thread should be titled, "The most beautiful professional photograph of a beautiful professional model"

There is always someone more beautiful....

Did you get your picture deleted? If so, that means you are disqualified. Should've used some common sense. :p

Everyone else: No, you do not have to use fresh photos, but no duplicates (posting the same pic twice) on this thread, please.

Ah, you caught me red-handed. :D

Actually, I started off when I heard the Moby Southside Remix with Gwen Stefani in it. I've seen the Southside video lots of times recently, and a little later in time I might want to purchase the newest No Doubt CD when it comes out.

Honestly, I have like 80 pics on the computer. When a new artist comes around featured in a Remix I'll see what comes up then. :p :cool:

OK Shrek art? IMO the only "artisic" pics you threw up were of Portman, good job by the way. Taking a hot girl and throwing her center frame, squirting some water on her so she looks all shiny takes very little thought or skill, and they are not "natural" they are good pics and the women are beutiful but there is nothing artistic about them, trust me as a professional in portraiture these are stock... oh wait I take that back whoever did the boob jobs on those women was pretty artistic.

LOL... I'd have to agree. Not much art to be had in those playboy pics as far as I'm concerned. Not that I mind ;)

Not much art in this... just a fricken huge pic of a beautiful woman (the original is 2000x1350!) It actually looks pretty crap scaled down this far... oh well, your loss :D

Shrek, I think we got the frickin' point. We KNOW you like Dalene. I was hoping to see a little variety. Thanks for posting about half of the entries, and all of the same woman. You should've just started a Dalene what's-her-face thread.

Oh... and none of the pics were truly artistic. They were watered-down porn. Although I DO appreciate those who actually posted pics of brunettes. They were a refreshing change of pace.

Shrek
Aug 9, 2002, 03:29 AM
Um, Kethoticus, I did post three other pictures of Natalie Portman, a brunette, on the first page. ;)

groovebuster
Aug 9, 2002, 04:45 AM
I was curious when I saw the title of the thread, but I am disappointed now...

Most pictures are just styled sluts looking dumb like hell. Just the price tag is missing: "one ride: 50$, three in a row: 120$"

Beauty (for me) has nothing to do with make up or "certain positions"... I much prefer natural beauty, intelligence and manners. And a girl doesn't have to be in a bikini to look good...

Maybe I'll find an example of what I mean and post it later.

groovebuster

groovebuster
Aug 9, 2002, 05:11 AM
So here is an example...

It's a friend with our daughter on her lap when she (our daughter) was about 4 months old in last October.

This woman is very good looking, is educated (M.D.) and has a natural grace. In the picture she has almost no make-up on.

No pictures of my wife at this point... that's too private, but she is very beautiful too! :)
