Title: "The Price Is Wrong"
Entry to Daz3d Lemonade Contest
A Little Description:
Daz3d from Draper Utah come on down, your the next contestant on The Price Is Wrong. *Insert parody theme music here as Daz3d jumps up and down running down the isle trampling Genesis midgets, trolls, and Bob Barker clones in the front row* Today you will be bidding on... *Excited announcer waits making everyone anticipate what will be the next item up for bids* A new website overhaul!!! *Crowd goes wild as Daz3d jumps up and down.* A sleek stylish yet foreign to make work website, complete with false user log-ins, misplaced items and pricing, undownloadable downloads,
*Show cuts off suddenly to a standby screen saying we'll be right back folks. A few minutes pass and text appears saying establishing connection. Finally the show reemerges*
disappearing reapearing disappearing black out periods, read only forums, full email inboxes, tech phone calls, angry customers, confused customers, and the re-emergance of the uninflatable pony. This all can be yours if the price is wrong...What is your bid Daz3d? *Insert parody Jeopardy thinking music here as Daz3d ponders it's final answer as the crowd yells $1.99.
*Show cuts out again, this time with a screen that just says still trying to establish a connection. Hours pass with this message until finally the show cuts back in.*
Daz3d goes to place bid as the outro parody music commenses* That's all the time we have today folks, I am your Price Is Wrong host Herbert Hunklemeyer wishing you good luck trying to figure the point of this *render* out. Buh Bye and tune in tomarrow same bat channel, same bat time. *Camera fades to black showing a puzzled Daz3d to end the show...

Ok so I had a bit of fun, with this. And as always I take everything to the extreme, even my own sense of humor, bwaha ha ha ha haha. Ok so I made a sign out of the Unflatable Pony, hee hee ha ha...
Very Little post work, rendered in layers, No animals or Vicky's were harmed in this creation, much. Have a great day/night. Good luck other contestants... I will be in the crypt if you need me... Please pass along a mountain dew, thank you very much...
OK I will stop now...

"Alice in Blunderland"
Alice started chasing the white rabbit, but then she realized there were more than 1! "Which one should I chase?" she thought. In her confusion, she stumbled and fell in a hole.
down, down, down...deeper and deeper into the hole she fell, until she landed in a quite curious hallway.
"This can't be right" she thought, as she dusted off her dress, and rubbed at a rather large lump that had begun to form beneath her dred falls.
There were monkeys, and doors way too small to gain entry. There were signs that pointed to no where, and doors that were very much locked.
As she wandered down the dimly lit passage, she felt that she was pretty screwed.
She found an open door that didn't seem too foreboding.
"Forums" she said aloud, reading the sign above the door.
Quickly she entered inside, hoping there would be less monkeys, no rabbits, and some clue as to where she was.

The issue, of course, is the store’s habit of identifying customers by the wrong names. To parody this I disguised three characters by participating PAs as other characters by the same artist(s), using hair, facial hair, clothing, poses, accessories, and material settings designed to mimic the promotional images of the characters being portrayed. The (gift) horse is there to remind everyone that the new store hasn’t been all lemons--thanks to various sales, promotions, accidental discounts, and giveaways, there have been some really great deals since the new site went live.
DISCLAIMERS: Doyle for M5 and M4, Modern Muses: Paloma, and Braxton for M5 were not used in this production. No Millennium Horses were harmed in the making of this production. Do not look Millennium Gift Horse in the mouth. Millennium Cow is an unofficial trademark of Sockratease. No personal data has been compromised. Honest!

Oh, my! How foreboding!
Dana
Oh, I'm optimistic.
The ship is absolutely 25% not sunk.

If she can just get that tape over there.
If not we all get back in the row boat!

This contest and all the renders were very therapeutic.
Thanks for having it :)
:lol: This is hilarious! lol
Ironically, when I tried to quote this and post, the browser gave me a connection error.
A back-arrow and re-do brought it back. LoL
Hey. Maybe that's the answer. How 'bout a do-over? :cheese:

I think that ... ship has sailed. :P
Love the Kokeshi Sakura by the way. I didn't even know it existed which means I didn't know that I absolutely needed it. Thanks for clearing all that up with your render. :)

Thanks . . . and anytime! ;-P I have a whole runtime of this stuff.
p.s. There's a little Ninja freebie for Kokeshi somewhere.

Presenting “The Lemonade Stand Contest: A Comedy of Errors” where we make something positive of the negative and vent our frustrations with some good old fashioned artistic fun.
da - who won
or was this in error !!??
:-)
I think they were planning to announce the winners simultaneously with Daz announcing all site errors were now fixed!
Any moment now ...
:cheese:
yep - guess they will got to it pretty soon :roll:
lol!!
I'm drafting up the winners announcement. Still trying to figure out how to make links that take you right to the post rather than to the thread as a whole, so that winners and honorable mentions can be viewed via the links. There is a way to do that, but these forums and how they work are new to me.
Yes, "soon" is a good way to put it. Some of the winners know who they are due to being contacted for prizes. We're getting used to these new forums and how they work as well as how to best handle the awarding of prizes.
That number at the upper right corner of the post. For example, mine's #79.
Can you figure out how to make it open a new tab, or new window, as well? I can't see a way to do that, and it's annoying as hell when I click on a link and it goes in the same tab!
Dana
Click on mouse wheel or right-click -> open in new tab.
Well, I know that...I meant automatically, like it should, like every other website I go to does! One gets used to such things and then forgets when it doesn't work anymore.
Dana
Yeah, I'm not sure how to do that, Dana. Maybe we need a Lemonade Stand Contest for the forums next time. >_>
One could always use the HTML target="_blank" attribute.
Kendall
For the RRRR we simply had to snatch all the images, then Sedor put a number on everyone and uploaded them in new posts. But as we could only have 5 images per post, I had to insert posts between (commercial breaks), so a Forum lemonade is quite reasonable ;-)
One could always use the HTML target="_blank" attribute.
Kendall
Now you're expecting regular users here to know how to use that, where to put it? I'm sure it must be a simple setting in the forum software. They really need to stop pushing this stuff off on the users. There's already someone who did up a script that works under GreaseMonkey in Firefox for the wishlist to show only on sale items. And there's someone else who actually developed an application for our order history, that allows searching and resetting easily. Is that the plan here? Let the users provide workarounds for everything that doesn't work right? No offense meant to you, but please, Kendall, don't encourage them!
Dana
Like this. It is standard HTML, and apparently the forum accepts it. It is not a kludge, it is HTML behaving as it is supposed to behave. Forum links that automatically have defined "target" in them are more of a kludge than this (even if those fall under standard CSS as well -- it is just that such behavior is much later invention than standard linkage the forum is doing).
Announcing the Winners of the "Lemonade Stand Contest: A Comedy of Errors"!!!

In the cases where actual titles weren't provided, I just kinda invented titles. >_>
I am awaiting a couple more PA's choices for honorable mentions, so more may be added to this list, if they're not the same choices as other PAs.
I'll try to make this post prettier after I've figured out a few more things. >_>
Like I said, the average user is not going to know this. I am aware of the syntax but I am a developer. My only point is that DAZ3D should be fixing DAZ3D's problems, not you, not me.
Dana
Good points. Let's not forget the fun spirit of this thread. :)
