![[challenge entry]](/images/board_posticon_c.gif "Challenge Entry: The Black And White Challenge"){kind=small}
This competition is a terrible thing.I have just made a black and white picture of Frazer standing outside his flat and I got as far as giving him a movable mouth before I realise that it's not reasonabled to post shit like that, but he must have known that he was invoking a bag of racist shit from the idiots?
I am one of the strongest defenders of the compos, but this one is ill conceived. It's like it was designed to produce a tirade of casual racism and make the board look like a bunch of inbred twats.
I feel disappointed. Those people who are trying to get it right are being drowned in a flood of shit jokes. I'm not opposed to a joke which relies on skin colour for it's humour, but for Christ's sake guys, come on.

^ THIShaving said that, we may get some good entries.
Also, it's quite possibly a good way of finding racist cnuts to ban/put on ignore list.

I have to agree hereI mean, I came up with a black Moby Dick and it was completely drowned by inverted black and white images ;)

Sturgeon's law appliesSure, 90% of the posts in the compo will be crud (mine would be, so I haven't posted one), but then 90% of everything is crud.
The crud will fade into the background - the genuinely good ones will FP.
And anyway, since when did it take a compo idea to get b3tans to be casually offensive?

It brings out that idea of what is acceptably offensive...I've told people that NOTHING is taboo on here EXCEPT racism.
Maybe this compo is a chance to break the final barricade.
Or maybe not.
