Sorry and Thanks


We took long enough about it ("you sure did" etc etc), but finally the results are in. Many apologies to all those who were losing sleep over them.

Thanks to everyone that entered, making this whole shebang a superb success. The entries were so diverse and of such high quality that all the judges came out with different favourites. We'll print some comments from them later...

Next years competition will be organised a little better. I think we expected 20 entries, not the mighty sum of 70.

How entries were judged

The competition used the classic figure skating model of judgement, with judges awarding scores out of 6.0 for artistic and technical merit, giving a grand total out of 12.0.

With the judges scores in, the highest and lowest scores were removed, and an average calculated from the remaining scores.

Wat ist TableArt?


In short, TableArt is a just a bunch of pictures, designs or creations made with the fantasmagorical technology of tables in HTML.

The art bit is linked to the beauty of the creations, the limitations in the technologyand experimentation with these constraints. Okay.... so it's not really art. It's naive net art.

TableArt was previously featured on a website called pilipala (which turned into graphci) as a small set of speedily created compositions.
