Today is Fatherâs Day. And there sure are a lot of dads in gaming. So letâs celebrate the holiday by having fun with all the various video game fathers on their special day.
Your challenge this week: Have some fun with video game dads.
Did you buy your dad a tie or some socks yet? The stores are still open as I write this so hurry and go grab these boring gifts. Or instead, get something your dad actually wants. Like a jetski. Or perhaps a tie with a jetski on it. (Who knows, maybe your dad loves ties!?)
Next week, Iâll pick a winner and some of my favorites!
Please note that the image submission 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.
