2. Be constructive in your critism. Dont tell members something they have posted is crap. Tell them why you dont like it, politely, then tell them how to improve.

3. Stealing is against ours and VF rules. Take credit for someone elses work and you will be deleted.

RESIZING AND PLACING PICTURES

To enter a contest or post work you Must know how to resize your pictures.

Placing pictures:
< img src="IMG URL HERE" >
past this code in your comment. Don't forget to remove the spaces!
Resizing pictures: < img src="IMG URL HERE" height="FILL IN HEIGHT" width="FILL IN WIDTH" >

If you want to keep the good proportions of your photos and don't want them to stretch, you can leave out the height or the width- part of the code. Just fill in the other, for example:
< img src="IMG URL HERE" width="200" >
Your image will be 200 px wide but the height will stay in proportion with the original photo. This code is very useful.

Use websites such as photobucket.com, Tinypic.com or image shack to get codes for your pictures. OR right click a picture you want to post (say if it is on your VF or DA) go to properties and copy the URL using the image code above to post it.

Poetry: Depict Innocence
Asphyxian
Fire, water, metal, stone.
Crushed and burnt and hung alone
the sun isnt looking kindly on you now daughter of earth the moon hears nothing of you now child of life
In the fire, water, metal, stone.
Pin prick, Poker, questions, wreck
they'll hang the bible around your neck the questions are circular
frightened girl your words are meaningless fearful child
against the pin prick, poker, questions, wreck.
putrid, darkness, devil, witch
they'll taste your blood to satisfy this itch
There's no escape my little one their minds are made and set helpless wretch
of your putrid darkness, devil witch.
But sun and wind will hear you cry through earth and rock and endless sky
your faltered words, barely uttered, let them listen
'I was naught but innocent'

Best Poem #3

Senses_Have_Failed
We’re burning daylight in the freezing rain,
Our bodies smothering the scent of love.
As tight embrace overrides all sense of time,
Lost in a whirlwind of pure passion,
Our senses have failed us as we fall,
Hard and fast towards the impending end.
This bliss is gone within moments,
The love that was is now vanished in the air.
Cold and alone we stand apart.
The wind sighs around our shoulders,
Loving our misery as we recoil
From the warmth of each other’s arms.
The shock sets in as the rain seeps through our clothes,
Now drenched with sorrow

Best Poem #2
Verablue

Late at night I disassemble into pronouns And stained glass trinkets Of I and I and me and…
We Never quite came on screen in this Fuck-me-red film noir dream
Better judgment drips Like icicles off the Tips of our tongues Barely skimming the surface in history Of I and I and we…
[Lonely little fantasies]
Last words grey you down to Technicolor And you beg me to Spread your skin across Hollywood blvd. Etch you into fame
Angelic introspections Over correcting and one dimensioned I and I and me Only me
[Only you]
Clear blue cascades A vision in nostalgia Like water for whisky
Only me
Still late at night I disassemble into pronouns Shattered bits of brightly coloured glass [Your image wasn’t meant to last]
Just I and I and me and… We never got engraved into film
[No one will remember you]

Best Poem:
Lilith_Vrouwe_Zwart

I am going to draw a picture, using the blood of the people who left you for dead. I wonder, where do the lies stop and the truths begin?
I hear not what you say, but what you mean.
I see straight through your mask which you wear before your friends.
I want you to realize that I'll be here for you.
I am protecting that which I love.

I pretend to be all innocent, "Protect me 'cause I'm fragile."
I feel as though you see me too, see right through my mask of stone.
I touch the empty void in my heart that I've reserved for you.
I worry I might fall and you won't be there to catch me.
I cry for the hurt they inflicted on you and the pain that you put upon yourself.
I am going to paint a picture for you, using the blood of the people you killed
When you told me you could no longer take the blows you've recieved throughout life.
I understand that I cannot save you if I cannot first save myself.
I say that things will get better when I know that those are but false hopes.
I dream of the day when I run towards the gates of freedom, the moon watching protectively from above.
I try to wait patiently for that day, but my seams are beginning to unravel.
I hope you will be there with me when my wings part, we'll fly away together.
I'm going to paint a picture using the blood and tears I shed until that day arrives.
