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 =)
Since making something in 100x100 is inconvenient, make with dimensions that can easily be scaled down to 100x100, such as 500x500, 1000x1000, 200x200 etc.
I don't think it's distorted at all. LOL I finally figured it out and you beat me too it. How did you do that anyway? I just resized it on picnik right now.
Okay... this is my first time using this image thing... Also this picture sucks because i rushed. It is a tree (symbolizing spring) and it got struck by lightning.
