Hello Armor Gamers!

Welcome to the Winter Armatar Contest! This is not going to be restricted towards Christmas. Entries for other winter holiday celebrations are also encouraged! So if you celebrate Yule, Hanukkah, Christmas, etc., or just like snow, feel free to submit an armatar about it so long as it fits the winter holiday theme. This has a wide range of possibilities!

You can submit your own original armatars to this thread following the theme of the Winter. 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 Winter 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 Winter themed.

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

Of course the milk is not level. Somebody is walking through the house of course (santa...)

More like vibrating the whole house. He's pretty fat, ya know? Along with his 12 other magical reindeer and sleigh, I think it would cause liquids in a glass to shake and stuff.

-doesn't have anything to about the cookie-

SilentQ, that snowman/bunny armatar is cute, but it is hard to see the whole picture when it is scaled down. =(

Strange... Considering I made it as a 100x100, so it shouldn't need to be scaled down... I made it based around that the fact that the smallest they would get was 100x100. :/

I also have another version that might work better if this one isn't good enough.

Nice one SilentQ.

Thyll, yours is not bad. Yep, as marioman said it's hard to see. Though, the background is great. =)
