Hello Armor Gamers!

Spring is finally here! And with the change of the seasons, so arrives the Spring Armatar Contest!

You can submit your own original armatars to this thread following the theme of the Spring. 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. You can also check out a few select returning Spring armatars from 2009 in the 5AP section.

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 Spring themed.

Good luck! And I look forward to seeing great armatars =)

How do you get it to 100 by 100?

Putting it smaller is worse than making it over 100x100.

Wow, the amount of armatars has dramatically risen: We have almost as many now than last year I find.

It looks like Halloween on first sight, and the figure looks like a zombie when scaled down. I recommend giving it some kind of bright coat (Yellow is good, green and black are bad), which would change the mood of the picture.

It must be a square, and that looks like a rectangle. 100*100 man.

Some of these seem more Summer-ish to me. Sun, people on rivers, etc.

Is it just me, or do they look extremely alike? Maybe that's just me..

Oh yeah, 197x197.. Dunno how to resize it. Made in paint!
