Hello Armor Gamers!

It's that time again! Spring is a great season full of inspiration, which we are hoping will help you make some great armatars. Now I know that it isn't spring everywhere right now, but it is for the AG office. So how this works is that you can submit your own original armatars to this thread following the theme of Spring. If I like it, I will add it to the 0AP armatar section for all members to use! You can reference previous contests for a better idea of what this is all about here.

Keep in mind that there are some guidelines, and unless your entry follows these set of rules it will not be accepted. So be sure to check those out.

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 some awesome spring armatars =)

Spring started Feb 1st ThingThing?


NO! It was March 20th. I am 110% sure... Winter started December 20th (I think) Spring started March 20th, and Summer is either the 20th or 21st of June. I leared about that stuff in school... I should know.

Yep, the vernal equinox was on March 20th, noting the beginning of spring. June 21st is the summer solstice.

No, no one is dumb. Not every nation in the world marks the start of the seasons in the same way. Some in the Northern Hemisphere, such as the US mark the beginning of the seasons based upon astrological events. So, the first day of summer for the USA is on the Summer Solstice.

Does it really matter when spring started? It is currently spring for the northern hemisphere, let's leave it at that. >_>

Well, thanks to the help of MagiX resizing it, I have my armatar here:

Hmm, I think the brown is too big. Though, I don't remember exactly what a sunflower looks like, I don't think the brown part is that big. :P

Ok, criticizing time is over. I like it, but I wish there was a bug on it. :P (Ok, now criticizing time is over)

Well, I looked at some, and the brown part was kinda big on some of them. I guess I can make it smaller.

Go ahead and ask anyone. Besides your stupid self, and they will either say 'March 20th' or ''i don't know'
Seriously, YOU ARE WRONG.
Just accept it.

Hmm, now I'm wondering if it is supposed to be that big. This one doesn't look right. >_>

Dude, just get over yourself. This isn't the "What day does spring start in the northern hemisphere" thread, it's the "spring armatar contest" thread. Just shut up about what day spring starts. Who really cares who's right?

More positive feedback. That makes me feel good.
