Contest Name: painting contest (name will probably change as this is for future)

Contest Number: 1 or 2?

Description of Contest:i want people to build ...something they think is neat on flat land and use an empty map to mark it so they have a painting

Location of Contest: build

Special Parameters: you can build with what you want but you (person building) will supply all blocks. i would request a server provided plot ahead of time (soonish as i would like this contest to be up and ready by the time 1.4 rolls around and my POA (pillar of Autumn) is done) so that i can make it the contest area with pre-built flat plots that match the dimensions of the empty maps.

side note. these paintings will be hung up the in museum section of my ship by the use of item frames. i will have prizes for top 3. 1000 caps first place 500 caps second and 250 third. there will be a certain section where these paintings will be hung up so that you know they were the winners

As far as I can remember maps don't work well on the server...

I mean the new empty map item that comes out in 1.4 that is meant for this kind thing

Sounds good but what does this mean? Like pixel art or something, or a scenic thing worthy of being in a painting?

essentially yes

Well that makes as much sense as saying "are we having McDonalds or KFC?"
"Yes"

yes

Guys if you do this somewhere in the middle of nowhere like the nether overworld you can keep your painting on the map and get back all the blocks you used in the painting if you dont want to have a big flat pixel art on your land. Just dont open your map at that spot again. You can use it for custon paintings in 1.4
