Contest Theme:
EGGxtreme EGGxtravaganza:
"WANTED: Unique EGGs for a special EGG Hunt in April"
It can be a good egg,
It can be a bad egg,
It can even be a rotten egg,
But the image must contain an egg as the focal point
And the egg must be unique, unusual and extreme.
Eggs can be glass, rock, metal, plastic, painted, whole, broken, lovely or tainted, or even inspired by the infamous Fabergeggs. They may be made of any materials. But, what ever you do, make them something...Extreme! After all, this IS an EGGxtreme EGGxtravaganza!!
Create your best EGG animation and it could hatch you a Spring Time surprize.
