For all you custom avatar artists out there, who make avatars for other people, but haven't been able to get one for yourself, this one's for you.
You give avatars to other people, well now we're giving one to one of you.Avatar artists, you task is simple: submit your dream avatar that you would want to be your own profile.
Not just one that you think is cool that you made for somebody else, the one you'd want as your own.
The one that Tibbiara and Tichondrius (Otori's glorious leaders) like best, based on creativity, conformity to avatar boiling rock standards, and general awesomenes be awarded a custom avatar form.To be eligible to enter, you need to have had one of your avatars be accepted into the game (IE, it's in someone's player profile right now).One entry per person please, you may edit your entry as much as you like, however.
The contest will close at the end of May, at which point the winner will receive their CAF right in time for the submission window.Good luck everybody!Sponsored by Aerin Frost, Spazmatic, allie, hockeymax19, and Laser Bullet, each contributing a Mr.

Have always wanted to do something like this...time to win a contest.
Hm. If we havent had one accepted before, but we do get one accepted soon, can we still enter?
And do Forum Profiles, count? avatar boiling rock avatar boiling rock Forum avatars don't count.
If avatar boiling rock have an in game avatar that's been pending approval since the first week of April or earlier, then you may enter, chances are you avatar boiling rock have gotten notice it was rejected by now.Please note that the pending avatar has to be for someone else, obviously you can't enter if you have one pending that's for your own profile, though I doubt thi be an issue with anyone.On a quest to catch 'em all!

avatar boiling rock avatar boiling rock curious as to the criterion for judging.
Will the judges be looking for what they consider the most likely to be accepted or based on simply what they like?Macaronus the Lihc Knig, master of Velcromancy, bearer of the Trapr KeepriconMacaronus #765501 Macaronus wrote: avatar boiling rock Both, it needs to look both awesome and like it would be accepted.
Not one the other idea is that the winner will submit their entry in this contest with the CAF they'd receiveOn a quest to catch 'em all!

This is my dream avatar- made awhile ago by Mr.
Matty.I made an avatar for Spazmatic, check his profile reason I want my avatar to be this is that Strong Bad once wore a Carmen Miranda (banana lady) costume, and I need a more SB themed avatar that's actually animated.My in-game name is StrongbadfanEX (#752518)Watch Jick Dance!Check out my blog, The Serious Nerd.Last edited by Strong Bad's Fan on Sun May 13, 2007 5:58 am;

Edited 1 time in total So, I started with this:It's a good template (an original of mine, I didn't steal that), but I've had trouble with lines being too thin before, so I redrew it.This is better, but I feel that even though it's okayyyy, and it does fit my personality, it doesn't feel "KoLish" enough, even with the stick figures.Et voila.I know you're only judgi final submission, but I always enjoy explaini artistic choices behind an attempt.
Thanks for the awesome contest, by the way - this is a creative and fun way to run a contest!Sputbot (#708096) Excellent, both the people that made my avatars are here now.
(which isn't unexpected, hence the fact I got judges who don't have avvies)Some good entries are cropping up, I regret that I only have one CAF to give away.On a quest to catch 'em all!

You shouldn't have to re-link.
Just hit refresh to cache the new image (assumi old one is cached, that is.)Macaronus the Lihc Knig, master of Velcromancy, bearer of the Trapr KeepriconMacaronus #765501 Time is almost up everybody.
Because of timezone confusion and what not I'll define the end of may as being as soon as custom avatars are available to be purchased in Mr.
Store. Judging shouldn't take too long, so expect a verdict by the rollover after.On a quest to catch 'em all!
