I was inspired to make this from Glee
I loved the Britney Spears episode, it was really enjoyable to watch, I totally loved it. So I've obviously been addicted to the music of the show. So I only hope this competition is just as enjoyable as the music and show inspiring it 
Now, time to set up all the ground rules and all the boring mumbo jumbo.
RULES
-
NO text on pictures unless stated otherwise in the assignment rules
-
If there is text allowed, any GLITTERY text is
-
Face Plastering is
-
I'm sure you all have seen people do it- photoskinning. For those who haven't,
hope you don't mind me using that) it is exactly what I DON'T want in your picture. Why? I find it JUST as bad as face plastering.
-
Absolutely NO arguing with the judges decisions! Just accept it as it is, and move on. If you're eliminated, then let it be, and improve upon what is said about your work, it will greatly improve you! However, if you believe the judge did not provide enough feedback, just ask politely
-
Honestly, don't be like '🐸🐸🐸🐸 MY PICTURE SUX'. Please. I used to be that way, and sure I still think a couple of my pictures aren't great, but I'm not THAT negative. So please, be positive about your pictures!
-
Collaboration on the last rule- if you don't like someone elses photo, just don't say anything bad, as that is one of the MEANEST things you can do. People work incredibly hard on every photo they take, and to be shut down about it is just terrible. So please, NO insulting photos.
-
I prefer for pictures to speak for themselves, but if you LOVE providing a little background knowledge to your picture, please don't make it a book
preferably a maximum of 5 sentences, but I won't keep track, but please use that guideline-
Editing is VERY much optional, but a few of the assignments will be hard if you do not
Oh dear, I do make a lot of rules... and I'm sure I'll be thinking of more as we go on.. xD
So think you can stand being in TOXIC? Well lets see how you survive, shall we?

Pixie's Comment:
I honestly didn't find this all that creative, I liked the idea but it didn't pop out to me like some of your other entries have done. The extras didnt look like children, but I didn't want to take off any points just in case their were actually children. and another thing that bothered me was how your model had the same pose as the extras, if she wore the same cltohing she would have blended in, so well done for keeping the clothing different and keeping her center, good job, but it wasn't for me.

Comment: Kung-Fu fighting! =D This photo is pretty interesting, and I'm a huge fan of simplicity, though I thought that the pose was a bit too simple.
Still, the idea is great, and Rose looks amazing for a martial arts teacher, I love the expression on her face, and the background is stunning. Overall
I think you did an amazing shot with this photo!

Comments: Girl. Where has this been!? You've got me sitting here with my mouth wide open. Everything in this is just... perfect! Almost- I would have preferred a bit more lighting, but yea. Her face is like screaming, 'Go Away!' with just that perfect amount of terror, and then all the little bits and pieces...

Comments: Another amazing one. Your idea of "toxic" is sure creative. I just docked off the point because her pose is just..bleh..to me. ^_^

This picture is much better in my opinion then the first one you provided us, you portrayed the word toxic well, and I am impressed, I love everything about your second picture! Well done.

Comments: I really really like this photo, the toxicity of it is somewhat overwhelming, I think one can even see the sadness and grief that Rose has in her purple eyes, and the pose was brilliant, the surroundings were deadly, and her look is poisonous! Great job as always Thea!

Comments: Definitely screams toxic to me, the drugs, alcohol, etc. Rose's outfit and make-up blend perfectly and suit the theme.

Comments: Wow. o.o just wow. This picture SO blew me away! It's gorgeous! I love your graphics! And now, onto the actual contents. That pose. I hate you. I've NEVER been able to get a pose like that, no matter how hard I try, and you ROCKED it. My biggest issues with this picture is her hair, it looks really weird.. and then her shorts. There's like this dark spot on her **********. :P Other than that... fabulous job, you definitely stepped it up this round!

Comments: If I could I would give you a freaking 1000 on the pose. I love that, it just makes the whole photo! The bangs of her hair just looked a little awkward to me

Pixie's Comment:
I loved this picture, the setting is stunning and your model's hair which you drew on is like "wow", however the does look good, but the shorts looked a little odd, did you draw them on? Because they didn't look real.

Comments: This was a beautiful entry Hannah! Though some parts stick out, Maxxie's face and hair seems a bit too illuminated and her knees and the lower parts of her body seem a bit dark compared to the rest of the photo. Though the posing is amazing, the proportions are just right, though it seems a bit too similar to fetal position, more like she's expecting something bad to happen instead of enjoying the time with her family. Still, this is a beautiful entry.

Comments: I'm not sure that I could just sit on a beach remembering the past while my family play. I think it would have been better if she was joining in. I love the pose, and the hair drawing is perfect.
The lines around her legs are pretty choppy, but other than that I think you done a great job.

Comments: Wow. This is mjdnhl worthy editing. She was like, an editing god, and always put little details like this in her pictures, and they were great. And you have definitely like, stepped it up to her level! From the little post it notes all around to the to the little puke on the toilet, it's just great :] The tape measure was a GREAT addition! Very beautiful! However, the closed eyes.. those were a biggy for me, because I would have loved to see her expression through them.

Comments: It's ever little detail about this photo that make it perfect. Well...Maybe except that her hands look a little awkward with the tape, and her eyes bug me. Are they supposed to be open or shut? Amazing job ^_^

I LOVE how you sorta conected the two of your pictures, and you took a totally different veiw of the word toxic, it is so real what you portrayed and actually quite hard, you pulled it off well, and I like how you have the tape mesure around her waiste.

Comments: Such a depressing entry, the message I mean. One can really see the emotion in this photo, and I love how you managed to make an old pose into something unique. Took me a while to notice a few of the indicators in the photo, and without using words, I know this photo would still get the message across! Great job Hannah!

Comments: I'm not very keen on this photo, the concept behind it is fantastic and raises awareness about how models feel, but it just doesn't scream toxic. The setting is great and the little hint of the "fat" photograph is a nice touch. I think you could have done a little better with this assignment, sorry.

Hannah, I invite you back into the TOXIC party with a place in Cycle 2 as a contestant. If you'd like to accept this position, just post an application here!
thank you both SO much again
I know, might not watch, I normally watch online.
Model's Bio: Since she was tiny Lyra has had a lot of people commenting on her gorgeous red hair and honey coloured eyes, she never thought she would have what it takes to become a model though. She is a doctor and has three gorgeous children, so spends her days and evenings looking after others, maybe now is her moment to show the world exactly who she is
Model's Headshot:
Modeling Competition Experience: I've been in one before, but didn't get very far. I have only just started editing with photoshop, but can take awesome in-game picture, if that helps
Hope my entry's OK, haven't had much practise
I've always thought the same thing as you, so many of the sims features can get lost, and it just starts seeming like it's not the sim anymore
Also I just may inquire about being a judge I haven't decide yet, because I know RL is catching up to me in so many different ways
I was actually planning that for a later cycle, but its fine
Awesome
I can only imagine what assignment one is. xD
So glad to know I'm not the only one who thinks like that
Okay!
But I would be interested in judging if Pringle can't
But if not I will most definitely be luuuurking!
It unfortunately has nothing to do with Britney
