ooooo very good point. that makes it an extra fun entry. hmm hard competition!

Ahh fun! :D I'll try and come up with an entry. :)

Oh fun! I am definately going to work on an entry for this. :D

I am here~

woot, I love the entries.

I so can't wait to see other entries!

I would enter... but have no sufficient arabian clothes, and no avatar maker. :(

This is a cute idea, I love it. :)

I thought it would be fun to see what people came up with. :3 And who doesn't like avatar contests!? Beside, I'm seriously considering using some of the runners-up as suspects for the whodunit!

Speaking of avatars, I'm curious where you're going with your outfit, belly-- it looks interesting! I don't think I've seen that top before! *stalks to see what belly does with it*

We're trying really hard to drum up a lot of interest in the event. :D

Yes... I'm just sad the next tabloid will probably come out after this contest is over! Otherwise I'd submit a gossipy bit about Scher's arrival. Which might still happen!

You totally should!

I just got excited about the idea of drawing people to the contest with an article, which can't happen now. Ooh, when does your art auction end?

Next Saturday.

Wyrmwyrm~ Maybe you can voice out for the art auction? instead?
Or is there pre-event before the event take place?
...
When is the next tabloid coming out anyway? *clueless*

The art auction will be over before the deadline for tabloid stuff even comes-- the deadline is March 15th. I don't know exactly when the tabloid will come out, but there was a deadline Feb 1st and the tabloid came out on Feb 13th, so I'm going to assume the next will come out the last week of March-- too late to help with the art auction or the avatar contest unless we extend the latter, sadly.

That is a total shame. I think extending that art auction out too long just would not work at all. Hard to keep people actively bidding for extended periods of time.
We miiight get away with extending the avatar contest, but I don't know. You may just do a piece about Scheherazad's appearance and maybe her storytelling abilities and something about an event coming up in June?

I actually have an idea... I'm writing it up in the planning thread right now, because it fits a bit more there.

Fantastic! Anything to keep up interest is a good thing.

I do think that avatar contest can be extended...
since, well, frankly, the avatar dress up won't take as much time as drawing art.

Hmmm For this. Would it be possible to send her the needed items in your avatar to ghost?

Try this on, Scher!

I'd rather not do that, partially to level the playing field a little and partially because I want to be able to give the whole outfit as a contest prize. We may be extending the contest, though, and we'll definitely be getting more donations, so if you have your heart set on a certain item it might not hurt to wait and see if someone donates it!

Speaking of extending the deadline, perhaps mid-April?

Gorgeous Chexala!

Ummm, I'd rather do first week of April, but mid April is fine.

maybe end it April 6th? That gives the first full weekend in April... I'd just like to get it advertised in the Minute a bit.
