    • No submission may violate any of the site rules.
    • If a submission does not follow the skin submission rules the creator will be disqualified.
    • All submissions must follow the current theme. If any model does not fit, a moderator will tell you as soon as possible as to avoid confusion.
    • Your submission must be posted before the deadline. The post containing your final submission must also contain the following:
      • An in game screenshot showing your submission in action.
      • The file in the appropriate format.
    • You must show at least one unfinished preview of your submission, before the deadline, as proof that it’s yours.
    • Your submission may not be started/made before the official launch of the contest.
    • Judges may not participate.
    • Teamwork is not allowed.
    • Model must exist in Warcraft III already.
    • No model edits are allowed.
    • Textures must be no larger than 512 pixels in any dimension when submitted as final entry, though you may work in 1024 (or higher), but they must be re sized down to 512, preferable 256 on equal dimension textures when submitted.

    Buildings is the theme for this contest, with the purpose being to increase the resources available for buildings. So with that in mind, if ancients are skinned they should still work well as a building, or anything else that is relatively building-ish you can't stop yourself from skinning. I'd say structural doodads are fair game for this contest as well, as long as they bare some resemblance to a building (aka no arches ;)

L_Lawliet, you obviously state that you saw that Dentothor is doing the same thing. And then you say "whatever, it wont ruin my idea". That's really, really not nice. :/

sorry, my apologies. i didn't clearly saw that he was about to do a PLANETARIUM.i thought it was a PLATINUM made out of arcane sanctum. well i'll be deleting the post and think of a new one. i'll be sending a PM to sir Dentothor stating my apologies and he can do what he was about to do. now, no more issues okay guys?. my apologies once more.
