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!

Ernie it needs to be .jpg, .png, or .bmp to upload to Photobucket.


How do you change it to one of those?

What are you using Ernie?


I am using GIMP, so I'm sure I'm not the only one who has had this problem.

Save as and look at the drop down menu in "Select File Type" and find jpg.

Thank you, I hope this works.

Yes, I know it needs to be resized, but that's just one more thing I have no idea how to do.

There's not that much relation to Halloween.
It appears that most are related to monsters/horrorish.
Why don't we have more candy? :x

You got ninja'd. Go back to the previous page and look at my mediocre-but-relevant entry.

And maybe resize it to 100x100 if you could.

Wow, that's realistic, in a scary sort of way. What program did you use for that?

You can always make your own instead of complaining =D

Ernie, when I make avatars I start out with a 100x100 template so I don't have to resize it later. Maybe you can try that.

I can't draw small things very well. Do you happen to know how to resize an image?
