{{Mini Contest}} ~ Characteristic Dressing ~ [sign up]

[Kraehe]

♥ [{Exclusive - Info}] ♥

EDIT 07102008 || A lot of changes to be made due my IRL schedule
#1 Photo editing allowed. The people who came up with an entry already, are allowed change them if they´d like. I´ll still ask you not to edit the background.
#2 Sign up deadline extended till the end of this month. The new date is 31.10.2008. Reason for this is that I´ll be busy with IRL stuff for the next 2 weeks.
#3 Voting changed. It will not be an open voting session.
In-case you´d like to be part of the private voting, you may volunteer for it by PM´ing me.
#4 Prize distribution; the 3 first will be receiving a prize through the forums, not in-game[since I only play on Apoline xD].. which will still be TBA. Give me time with this one. .-.

While I was trying to get rid of my boredom, I came up with this idea of testing the creativity of Fiesta players. I know there are some awesome and creative players out there, but just how creative can you be? The basic idea is to dress up your character, choose a nice place, take a screenshot and post it here. CS items are NOT a mandatory - you can be creative with in-game stuff[combinations =P] ^^ what all-over counts, is the place&outfit put up together. No, it doesn´t have to look perfect, it´s not about who is the most stylish player out there. You could choose to dress up as a clown[don´t ask me how could you pull off that look] and still win.

Any questions you may have, can be posted on this thread.

if you have problems figuring out how to take screenshots;

note; this is nothing serious, I just thought it would be a fun thing to have.

Cool, I'll try this out when I have the time :)
Just one question please;
You said we could dress up as a clown if we wanted too. Now the only way we could wear something like that(i.e something outside of the fiesta clothing line) is to edit our picture with an editing programme, but then you said we are not allowed to use editing programmes. Are we allowed to come up with our own costumes then with an editing programme? Or are we only suppoed to take a print screen and the originality comes out of the angle and setting of the photo?

Thank you :D

[Kraehe]

Everyone may imagine a Fiesta-clown the way the want to. =P The point with this is more like, using the outfits/armors that the game gives you by creating different combinations. If using photo editing programmes seems to come as popular request, I may allow it. Let´s see ^^

[Naomi89]

Ok thank you for your help :)
Well if your choice was the one you originally intended on then I suggest to you that you keep it that way :)
But if you're not sure which you prefer you could always make a poll to see if photo editing is a popular request.
Either way, I'm sure many people will enter^^

[Kraehe]

I´m not sure if everyone has access to a photo editing programme, I´m trying to keep it fair for everyone, even tho those with access to CS items probably get a slight advantage from it.

It´s not only the outfit that counts, more like, how it goes also with the background. Like, looking all princessy at a map like CP wouldn´t be too flashy now would it? xD

[Naomi89]

Mm, well as you pointed out either way you choose, some one can still have an advantage. Some may be better at using editing programmes than others. And in the other case some may have access to alot of cooler items form the cash shops. But advantages are the case in any event, so it's something that cannot be eliminated.
So I think in the end it should be your choice :) So don't stay waiting for people's request as you said before.
Now that I've understood the rules of it properly, I can think about where I want my screenshot and what wierd outfit I'll put together :P hehe

Thank you again :)

[Kraehe]

Edited first post, Photo Editing Programmes are allowed after all. xD

[Naomi89]

Ohhh, so the basic outfit needs to be the fiesta ones. Nice, you managed to intertwine both ideas together. Good idea :D

[Kraehe]

I figured, editing the screenshot may help those with no access to CS items but this way it shouldn´t be too show-off competition for those who have amazing skills with photo editing. ^^

[ola_swirl]

And what's TBA? :0

[Kraehe]

TBA = To be announced xD

It requires me to think, I´m too lazy to think right now D: I had my share of thinking for the day when I wrote the opening post. >.>;

[Kraehe]

-bumps-

Yes, I´m bumping it, sue me. >O

[Naomi89]

Ok this is my contribution to the competition, you said we may take a screenshot on the game with any setting and outfit we like as long as we do not edit it alot on photoshop. I decided this one needs no editing :p
This is not edited in anyway, just a really wierd bug, and I thought it looks way wierder than a clown :D hehe

Here we have HolyLightning sporting off her amazingly long arms. People look in amazment as she stands on her head. her hair drapes down her back and wraps itself around her face like a beard. The number one model-like look for this season :P

Jojo can fly? ;D
seems like no ground below you xD

[UzumakiW]

Hmm...I might have to look into doing this ^^.

[dizzie]

I must say I feel as if this contest is very limited. Seeing as we can't do any recolors...I guess that just leaves up to how creative you can get..but that only leaves just accessories. Any reason as to why there can't be any recolors? Just curious. ^^

Stepper;; I gotta say, that made me lol just a bit. xD Even tho I personally hate spiders, it´s somewhat cute. o__o

dizzie;; It wasn´t meant to be a photo editing contest to begin with, it was meant more as a screenie contest. But let me skip to the point, I changed it so people may edit the screenies with whatever program they´d like. Read the first post for more info. @__@;;

yeah me n Kraehe had a whole discussion at the beginning of the thread, it will explain everything for you dizzie ^^ hehe

[Kraehe]

Wheep Naomi, in case you´d like to use photo editing, you´re allowed to make a new submission. ^^

Okie dokie, if anyone still has questions, your best bet is to PM me. I have to read a 3590740593 page book in english [if you didn´t know, english ain´t my first language so it will take me forever rofl] >,>
