Contest: Halloween 2002

Welcome To The Fifth NeHe Productions OpenGL Challenge!

Yet another attempt at a Halloween contest. I was very surprised to find out that a few countries had no idea what Halloween was. So after giving everyone a few years to check out the first Halloween contest entries, I decided to have a second contest. It's an easy theme and kids really like the demos (especially on halloween).

The prize for this contest was a little more affordable for me, but still very cool. I gave away a portable USB Smartdrive. Compatible with both Macintosh and PC (no driver required). At the time, the USB drives had just started appearing in stores, and were still a little costly, so it made for a nice prize.

* Check out the Glow Inc. website for super cool glow in the dark paint. They also have some project information for Halloween decorating and haunting including two great articles on creating a “dot room” and a “glow room”. Visit http://www.hobbyglow.com/haunted_houses.htm for more information!
