Graphic Design Contest (#GD) <\/span><\/h2>\n

The Graphic Design Contest(#GD) encourages users to produce professional Graphics around a wide range of themes and compete for the best design. Each challenge presents a concept that challenges users to make a specific kind of graphic. Users must then use the PicsArt toolbox of photo-editing and drawing tools, text, and clipart, to design Graphics that stand out. Whether you prefer subtlety or excitement, make sure your graphic designs attract and reward attention. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All graphic designs should be created using PicsArt’s photo-editing and drawing tools. The Graphic Design contest is announced every second Monday morning (PST). You will be given four days to create your own unique graphics. <\/p>\n

Drawing Challenge (#DC)<\/span><\/h2>\n

In the Drawing Challenge, users are challenged to create drawings using only PicsArt drawing tools. The contest theme changes every week, covering an endless array of subjects. PicsArt’s drawing toolbox is incredibly deep and can allow for stunning detail and precision. In these contests, users are only limited by their skill and imaginations. See how your painting talents compare to your peers and create your very own PicsArt masterpieces. Half of the fun is checking out the winning paintings and seeing the level of creativity and skill that comes out of our community every week.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The theme of the drawing challenge is announced every Tuesday morning, to give the users time to draw before the submission date. We announce the submission tag for each drawing contest right before submission opens, via Facebook and Twitter as well as on the contest banner. Users then have 30 hours to submit their drawings to the contest, starting Saturday 9:00 AM (PST).  <\/span><\/p>\n

Note<\/span>: <\/span>We kindly ask you to avoid photographing drawings done manually in pen or pencil, as these are against contest rules and will be removed from the contest. <\/span><\/p>\n

Tutorials<\/span><\/h2>\n

In addition to our creative tools, we also offer drawing tutorials, step-by-step guides for challenging drawing assignments. Tutorials generally follow challenge announcements closely, so be sure to keep an eye on the blog in the hours following the DC theme announcement. <\/p>\n
