Happy holidays! We have almost made it through 2019. What a year. A bad year, for most folks around the world. But we did it. Congrats. Christmas is almost here so letâs have some fun.
Your challenge this week: Celebrate the holidays with video game characters.
No other rules or requirements. A simple and open contest for this festive time of year.
Next week Iâll pick a winner and hand out some awards!
Please note that the image submissions rules have changed just a little bit. Weâre looking for images that are 800 pixels wide now!
How To Submit â Instructions
1. Create your âShop and save it to your desktop. Images must be at least 800 pixels wide.
2. Go to the bottom of this post
3. This brings up a comment window. Click âChoose fileâ if youâre uploading your âshop from your desktop
4. Alternatively, you can upload the âShop to a free image hosting service. I suggest imgur. Then paste the imageâs URL into the field that says âImage URL.â Note: this must be the URL of the image itself, not the page where it is displayed. That means the URL ends in .jpg, .gif, .png, whatever.
5. Add editorial commentary and hit submit and your image will load. If it doesnât, upload the image to imgur and paste the image URL as a comment. I will look at it.
6. Large-size images may not upload properly, though we have seen some animated .gifs upwards of 5 MB. If youâre still having trouble uploading the image, try to keep its longest dimension (horizontal or vertical) under 1000 pixels, or the whole thing under 2 MB.
