BACKPACK ART CONTEST!

Post by Mysteria »

Announcing a Backpack Art Contest with an "Autumn Is Coming!" theme.

If you have never done this kind of contest before, all you have to do is
put items into a normal empty backpack (provisioners sell them) and create
a scene that represents "Autumn Is Coming"!

The possibilities are endless! Just move items around in your backpack
and when you are finished, take a screenshot (a small amount of background
is allowed - see example) and then crop the image in a program like Paint.
Then post your cropped image -you can use the "upload attachment" feature.

There is a timeline for all entries: From August 2nd through 13th, 2020.

How is the judging done? By you! I will make a poll post where you can
vote from August 14th through August 20th. So comments here do not count
as votes. Winners will be announced on August 21st.

Rules:

1. The entry must be entirely created in-game, and not with any art program except
for cropping the image. Be original, be creative, have fun!!

2. Only one submission per account.

Prizes! Yes!! Prizes for the top three backpacks with the most votes. They are
a surprise!

So what are you waiting for! Get a backpack from a provisioner and start designing!
I can't wait to see what you come up with! Good Luck everyone!

*Special thanks to Devouring Rage and Humiliator for their help creating the contest.
Any questions just send me a PM.

I have not done anything like this before, but it is a neat idea.My first time so keeping it simple I guess ;)

Oh and do not mind the BACKPACK Graphic itself. I do not have the plain background of backpack.

Thumbs up for organizing this! House deco and backpack art contests are probably the next events that we'll be setting up (so it's not just a one-time thing, but periodical) so i'm glad you made this contest to fill the void until we make them.

Thanks +C! Then I can enter one also :) Sounds like a lot of fun! There have been a lot of player auctions, events, raffles and contests going on, I am really enjoying this one and all of the spectacular entries.
