I'm going to send four of you a word or phrase. Using nothing but Paint and your own free hand skills, I want the four of you to independently draw a picture (limited 400x400) that conveys the word or phrase that I have provided you. The fifth person gets to guess what that word or phrase might be.
Drawers: Again, for your drawing, you can only use Paint and must do everything freehand. In the spirit of this exercise, I'm going to ask you *not* to cheat by copy/pasting or sharing with other players. When you are finished, post your image on the board. If you do not have the ability to upload/host images online, e-mail your completed picture to me (theunclebob@hotmail.com) and I will upload the picture for you to post.
Guesser: No cheating for you either! Please do not communicate with the drawers about what the image is supposed to be (each drawer will be given the same word/phrase, so don't ask what someone's drawing was until after the round is completed!) You may guess one time after each drawer's picture is posted, however if two (or more) drawers post a picture before you guess, you miss a turn (or more) at guessing - part of training your brain is being quick to respond!
Drawers - you will receive your word/phrase shortly via PM. Guesser - You'll be notified first via PM.

It looks like some sort of rag doll, a rag doll that one would use in a courtroom to ask a child on the stand some. . .questions. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that Bill loves Zelda, so my guess is:
Bill's love(s) (or something along those lines).
Dude, you think this is bad, you should see some of the pictures my wife has drawn and what they were supposed to be. (although, to be fair, what I drew as "My first memory", she thought was a duck...
)Anywhoo, you're pretty spot on. The correct answer was "Bill's True Love". I'm going to say TVMan won this round. Special props to wandering for his picture.
Okay, I'm going to assume that the five players for this around, along with those who have said they want in the next round still want to play. If any of you *don't* want in the next round, please let me know. Also, if anyone does want in the next round, also let me know!
TVMan - send me your "prize".
The next round (also Picture Drawing) will start once I get TVMan's "prize" and am able to send out PMs.

besides my drawing sux in paint and I still can't figure out PS (thanx to a lack of effort).
I wonder what the next few rounds are going to be like?

Drawers - Remember, only use Paint (Is there a Mac equivalent of paint? Mac users, you can use that). The point of this isn't to make the purdiest picture or anything - it's to see how well you can express a single thought in a simplistic drawing. Just be glad I'm letting you use color - you don't get to do that in Brain Age. Speaking of which, the next round will have a "special condition" for the drawers, so look forward to that.
Anywhoo, I'll get the notifications out here in a few.

If you do not have Paint on your computer or do not have a place to upload your images to, check out this:
http://canvaspaint.org/
It's an online, browser based version of Paint that even seems to work on Macs. It appears you can use this and save a picture locally to upload in your own space or use it to save the image on their servers - if you don't have your own space to upload it to.
If you don't want to use this and would rather send your picture to me to upload, you still may - but this method might be a bit easier!

EDIT: Going by UERD's picture, I would assume the message is Unclebob bumps posts but with Darkheart's picture, I've been led to believe that there is more to the phrase. Then there is stabby's picture which seems a bit uncomprehensible. At least the second part with the hat and rose. So, this leads me to believe the phrase has to be moe than Unclebob bumps posts.

Well, to bump a thread, it has to have died. Maybe it wasn't such a good one after all...
Post by: UncleBob on September 03, 2007, 12:22:19 PM
Guesser: Remember, no cheating! You may guess one time after any picture has been posted. You may not guess again until another picture has been posted. If multiple pictures are posted before you're able to guess, you still only get one guess until the next picture is posted.
Drawers: Remember, you may only use Paint or http://canvaspaint.org/ to create your picture. If you don't have anyplace to upload it, I recommend using canvaspaint, as it allows you to upload your image as well. Pictures can be no larger than 400x400. You are not allowed to use words or letters. Also, do not collaborate with other drawers - be original!
IMPORTANT NOTE TO DRAWERS: For this round (and future rounds) there will be a "Special Rule" in place. The Special Rule for each round will change from round to round (although I may choose to recycle the special rule on occasion). This round's special rule is one that I had in place before Khush sent me his phrase, so I apologize in advance. The rule is - you cannot draw something meant to represent a poster's current avatar. You can draw something meant to represent one of his or her previous avatars, however.
Notices will be sent out shortly.

Seriously, this game is stupid. It would be much better if anyone could guess. We should just spoiler out answers so when my awesome skillz (combined with Pale's amazing Paint abilities) get the correct answer after the first picture everyone else can fight for second place.
