Your Sunday Best! An Avatar Contest -- Over! Watch the Community Discussion forum for results!
Your Sunday Best! An Avatar Contest Welcome to the official avatar contest of Easter 2009! I will be hosting and judging this year, and I'm looking forward to seeing your lovely outfits! I'll be judging based on creativity, fashion sense and adherence to the themes. There will be two categories this time around (though you never know when I might throw in extra categories!): Generic Easter/Springtime avatars and Your Sunday Best! avatars. See the following posts for more information on each category. Your Host http://www.menewsha.com/forum/member...cture15664.png Hey guys! I'm Sizzla, and most of you have probably seen me around the forums at some point or another. I've hosted a few of the avatar contests during our events now, and it seems that this time I'm at it again. I'm looking forward to seeing a bunch of festive, Springy avatars this time around! :D Helpful hints from Sizzla: Please know that the categories are open for interpretation. When it comes to judging, I usually pick those that I think fit best with the category and which are also nicely put together. :) It's hard to give more hints than that, but I'd say that typical springtime colors are either pastels, or bright colors, but not terribly saturated. For example, royal blue and red are far too saturated to be springy colors in my opinion. But a lighter shade of red (or blue) -- pink or salmon perhaps (light blue) -- can be quite springy. :yes: |
Rules
Read the rules and follow 'em. That's all I ask! XD Make sure you read them all too, because there may be something in the rules that's necessary for your entry... ;)
I'll choose first, second and third place winners in each of the categories. Other prizes might be added as the event goes on, depending on the amount of entries I get. Prizes are as follows: First place: An Easter '07 set (bunny hairpin, white bunny plushie, chicky on my head, pierced bunny headband) Second place: An Easter '08 set (Barba the Lamb, Plucky the Ducky) Third place: Wood Sprite CI and 1,000g |
Your Sunday Best! Avatar Contest
You'll enter your avatar in this category if it looks like your avatar is either going to church, or to some special Easter family gathering where you have to dress up/look nice -- and you may or may not like it! :XD Your Sunday Best Entry Form! Username: Image of My Entry: Quote:

I think i'll enter this i don't know D:
I'll try -is so poor- |
Please do! :D I love having a bunch of entries, so I hope you get to join in. :D
Welcome to the event everyone! I hope you all have a great time. ^_^ |
I'm not certain where this post is going.
I clicked on one of the event forums, and it took me to the Event Navigation page, not the forum? There's just the navigation picture, and this message box. |
This looks like it will be fun! Just the one category of Sunday best, right?
|
I lOVEEE avatar contests.
:3 <3 They make me happy, I get to see so many awesome avis. 8D <3 |
I would love to enter, but I'm afraid that I can't take a snapshot of my outfit and upload it. Every time I've tried, it never worked.
|
@Elmira: There are actually two categories: Sunday Best and Generic Springtime/Easter. :D
@GrannyJ: Here's what you do to save your avatar for the contest. Right click on your avatar's picture and select "Save Image As" or something like that. Then, save it to your desktop with a name that you can remember. Then go here: www.tinypic.com. And Click the "Browse" button next to the box that says "File:". When you click "Browse," a window will open up where you can choose the file you want to upload. Select the image of your avatar from your desktop. Then click "Upload Now." Once you're done, it'll give you a bunch of links to your image. All you need to do is select the "IMG Code for Forums and Message Boards" link and copy and paste it into the entry form. :) |
Thanks - hands are full at home and I forgot to put my glasses on - I'll come up with something!
|
lol, I am totally entering atleast the springtime one. xD Maybe the sunday best depending if I can put that type of avvie together. xD
|
Cute avi Winter! I love the color scheme. Sooo pretty!
|
Thank you <3
It came out better than I thought <3 |
Yeah, I am SUPER fond of it. XD Have you been nommed for User's Pick yet this week? XP
|
xD No clue. xD I just got back from the beach yesterday and haven't really checked the thread out. xD
|
I'm lazy and would have to look through the thread. XP I'll save your avatar and look later. *lazes about*
|
being lazy is what you do on holidays and vacation :lol: It is only normal. xD
|
Hmm, are we only allowed to enter one avi? D:
Or can we enter both categories? :3 -wants to enter both- xD; EDIT; Nevermind, I properly read the rules. xD;;;; Hmm. Would this avi be fit for springtime? :3 |
Well, I'll try and see if I can make this work:

Good luck Granny! :3
|
Thank you, Windy dear. I hope you enter also - you're so bright and cheerful looking!
|
@Windy: You can enter both categories. :) And your outfit now is kind of on the fence. I'm going to say it's more summery than springy... If you think it fits, you can enter it, but just know that I think it's more summery than springy. XP
And YAY! I'm glad my instructions worked for you Granny! :D Thanks for your entry! :XD |
Thank you, Sizzla dear. Your instructions were very clear! It was easy to do.
Is that the same way I'd put a picture into my signature? I'd like to put a little picture of my new grandson there sometime. Edit: I should ask....should my outfit have been in the Spring category? I wasn't sure. |
