Everyone is pretty tired of fighting and exploring in underwear, so to change that, the first Clothes Design Contest (name could change)!

 

 

Spellbreach Clothes Design Contest

 

 

Entries due: October 20th

Voting ends: October 25th

 

 

There will be two different categories, clothes and accessories. To match the characters, the items should be pixelated, except for backgrounds. You can use any image editing program, and don't worry about the image format or transparency, I can fix that for you. There will be no limit for the number of entries, and to make it fair, each person only gets one prize, no matter how many of their entries won.

 

For the clothes category, you can make shirts, pants, skirts, dresses, jackets, shoes and a bunch of other stuff. If it's not gender specific, you have to make both versions, male and female.

 

For the accessories category, you can make hats, glasses, watches, backgrounds, foreground items, etc. If necessary, make a version for each body type.

 

OH BTW YOU HAVE TO PM ME YOUR ENTRY/ENTRIES

 

The templates (140px x 200px) :

 

 

 

Some programs you can use:

GIMP

Pixlr

Pixelmator (Mac)

Acorn (Mac)

Paint.NET

Sumo Paint

 

 

If you have any questions about an item you want to make but don't know which category it goes, or any other questions, feel free to PM me!

By the way, guys, Spellbreach will have no gender-specific clothing! I guess you don't have to make two versions of something to enter, but if we decide we want to use your images I'm probably going to ask for the alternate version!

So yeah, the "boy" body type will be able to wear the skirts and dresses, and the "girl" body type will be able to wear boxer shorts and sports jerseys. Or whatever. Y'know?

Huge thanks to Swarley for hosting this and offering to tweak images and whatnot. I'm super pumped to see what you guys come up with!

Everybody whose work we like enough to implement will, of course, get the "Maestro" feat and title in the game. Top entries will win an exclusive, contest-prize-only familiar and a bunch of gold

Oh, also guys, if you can use the image format .png (24 bit), which all the final images will have to be anyway, you can use semitransparent areas in the image - that is 100% possible. That way, you can do funky sunglasses, or whatever It's pretty nifty

I'd like donate 500k FR treasure.

Any recommended bit-size max... like 72 kb or so?

[Sweeney]

Nope, but the image should try to match the style of the other stuff we have, which should keep the file sizes pretty low on their own
