The big game! The final match. The super thing! Whatever you call it, the Super Bowl is today. Seems weird to hold a Super Bowl during a pandemic, but hey, what do I know.
Your challenge this week: Add some video game characters to football!
Football is fine. Itās a bit boring at times, but with some good snacks and a comfy chair, itās a totally okay sport to enjoy for a few hours. Do you know what would make it better? Video game characters! Letās add some of them to the mix.
-NOTE FROM ZACKāS LAWYERS: Kotaku/ZACK ZWIEZENĀ is not affiliated with, officially endorsed by, or directly connected to the National Football League or the Super Bowl. This blog is just a fun little contest themed around a popular sporting event and it only uses the name Super Bowl as a form of parody, satire, and under fair use.-
That was weird. Anyway!
Next week, Iāll pick a winner and some of my favorites!
Please note that the image submission rules have changed just a little bit. Weāre looking for images that are 800 pixels wide now!
How To Submit ā Instructions
1. Create your āShop 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 āChoose fileā if youāre uploading your āshop from your desktop
4. Alternatively, you can upload the āShop to a free image hosting service. I suggest imgur. Then paste the imageās URL into the field that says āImage URL.ā 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 doesnāt, 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 youāre 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.
