Hello Armor Gamers!

Halloween is fast approaching, and it is time for a new armatar contest! You can submit your own original armatars to this thread following the theme of Halloween. If it meets our quality standards, I will add it to the 1AP armatar section for all members to use! You can reference previous contests for a better idea of what this is all about here.

There are some guidelines, and unless your entry follows these set of rules it will not be accepted.

GUIDELINES:
1. Must be appropriate. Cannot be offensive or profane in nature. Try to keep it clean!
2. The entry must be square, and at least 100x100 pixels in dimension.
3. Must scale down well to 100x100. So if it is larger, make sure that it will still look good when it is scaled down to armatar size. A few suggestions about this:
- Sometimes simple is better. If you go into a lot of detail, it might not look as great when you scale it down. So just keep in mind what the final size will be.
- If you are able to do vector, that can help with the sharpness of the image. However, since they are so small this probably isn't a big issue.
4. Must be completely original. You cannot use elements from other piece of artwork, the entire armatar must be 100% original.
5. Must be Halloween themed.

Good luck! I look forward to seeing some creative new Halloween armatar ideas!

I know. I was looking for any criticism before I give my final copy(i.e. make it look better and resize it).

Kirby, I like that lightning, can't do better myself, but I don't think it pertains to Halloween much. Maybe add something in front of the lightning. Like a ghost, jack-o-lantern, candy, or even a mask.

Whatever you want to add, add it, and if you don't want to add to it, then don't. It's all up to you.

A heads up: I am working on uploading the first batch of armatars right now.

The new armatars from this year can be found under the 1AP section.

Last years returning armatars can be found under the 5AP section.

Have fun picking one out! =)

Wow the old ones bring back memories for sure, and that was the first armatar contest correct? I didn't compete in that one, but if I get an idea I might try for this one.

I don't think words fit well for armatars...

That's what I told him, but I guess he doesn't understand.

I think the armatar would be good just with the logo directly in the middle and just a little larger.
