Ns boxart contest?

<div class="IPBDescription">Interesting lil idea.</div>How about the good ole NS PR man Monse holds a NS box design contest where the winner gets to be in the next playtest, a t-shirt, mousepad, the box, credits, or whatever..

Ive seen lots of games do this and I think it would be fun and ubber sexy...

Or maybe we can design a NS Merchandise of sorts and then sell it to the public so we can feed Flayra or something.

    I'd prefer it if you were to feed me, but whatever...

    I like the idea. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Heh. Design the box that doesn't exist? <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    Don't really have an opinion one way or another. Maybe we should save some contests for later though... (Or maybe not).

    Sounds good to me, I'll let Monsieur have the final say though.  I think it may be a bit early to design the box-art though... :)  I'd love to see it anyways.

    Well ya gotta be optimistic, right?  If you do it this way, you'll be sparing yourself the cost of getting one made professionally when NS ships worldwide <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    I like the idea alot, I can only imaine what amazing graphics this community could come up with.  However, I won't be able to take part in the contest, unless you want something made in paint.

    Well people just design it since its for "fun", ive seen many of these contests and people love imaginging what kind of box art this game could have.

    Its oodles of fun, trust me flay <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    I wonder if we could piggyback game distribution on a music distributor. If we could, I have some friends over at <a href="http://www.midheaven.com/revolverusa/links.html" target="_blank">Revolver USA Distribution</a> who would be delighted to help out.

    ROFL


    At a guess i'd say it's the artwork (pictures) on a box (most likly a box that a game is located in) <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->
