Official Rules
1. You must have at least 50 posts to enter and vote.
2. Your illustration must not be pre-made in ANY way.
3. Your illustration must follow the assigned theme.
4. Your illustration must be your own work. If you are asked to prove the authenticity of your entry, you must do so.
5. Your illustration must be of a reasonable size - it may be "large" by general terms, but please don't make it HUGE. If you are asked to resize your illustration, you must do so.
6. Any medium is accepted, as long as you have made a substantial effort. Entries that appear to be quick and pointless will be removed (so NO 5-minute MS Paint entries -as well as no photographs).

8. You may not vote for yourself in the voting thread.
9. If you are caught voting multiple times in the voting thread, you will receive a one-week suspension from the IOTW (including voting).
10. If you are proven guilty of stealing an illustration, you will receive a one-week suspension from IOTW. If you are caught two more times following the first, you're banned indefinitely from IOTW.
Failure to adhere to any of these rules will result in the disqualification of your entry.
The theme this round is: surreptitious.
the definitions:
1. obtained, done, made, etc., by stealth; secret or unauthorized; clandestine: a surreptitious glance.
2. acting in a stealthy way.
3. obtained by subreption; subreptitious.

YES. it's more fun.
and it means stealthy, covert, undercover, etc.
(did i mention i took honors/AP english all of high school? XD)
but ya, i think these words are great because they can be taken many directions. basic words like "romance" tend to only produce "couple" illustrations...regarding simply romance. i want creativity, you see.

you can paint, collage (not with photos), make a mosaic, or even use painting programs. my last entry was made in photoshop.

It stands for "In our tiny world" and its a contest to see how many things we can do with midgets. This weeks theme is "buoyancy" and we have to think of the most creative things to stick to a midget to make it float.
Except trade buoyancy out for this week's theme of surreptitious. Therefore you have to figure out what to stick to a midget to make it all hidden and stealthy. Expect a lot of Invisibility cloaks.

Boxiom, IOTW gives people more freedom as to what they want to do.
sometimes being a tad too specific kills everything.
