    well spoony said "as long as we HAVE the item" they can recreate it, so i am guessing the try clothes option is not acceptable

    Ok no problem, I will still be putting an entry in some time in the next day or so anyway,

    The item I was trying is very easily creatable, just not within my budget so I used try clothes. I know the item and dye name for this.

    And we're allowed to use clothes from the 'try clothes' option?

    I want to say no, because we want screenies of you wearing them as opposed to the "try clothes" option. My question is, will using the "try clothes" even allow you to design an original outfit? Seems like you would be limited by lack of color choices.

    Xarfox has confirmed the previous question, here's the deal:
    -yes you can choose to use the "try clothes" option
    -make sure to crop your images so we know what you're submitting
    -save your images in the biggest possible filesize you can in JPEG
    -list the items that you were trying on.

    Basically that's going to be an overcomplicated kind of submission, and the image will look a lot worse because, for me at least, that little view window shows your character models SAVAGELY bitmapped around the edges.

    So yes, but if you can avoid it that might be for the best.

    We're offering unreleased because we thought you'd like it, but if you'd prefer a set that's already been released in the past then sure.

    Have we determined whether or not the "dinner jacket" set has shoes? It'd look cute with lady's heels I think, or crystal love, but I'm just curious.

    And I'm still a bit confused about first prize, the set that is added to the CS, will it be a fixed color? scanned the thread and didn't see an answer.

    From first post:
    q: Is the color fixed or should it be able to dye, the set you make?
    a: Dye it any color that you can make in the game, the color will be included in your named set if you win.


    If it wasn't a fixed color, wouldn't the new set be pointless? :P


    EDIT: just checked on ecatomb, and there are shoes in that dinner jacket set... so I'm hoping yes? If not, I won't be too happy. I WANT MAH SHOES. :E

    Unreleased set choices for winners.
    fem_choice01.jpg
    fem_choice02.jpg

    in other versions both of these are not dyable if i remember correctly.. so if you end up with it and its randomly colored that will suck :(

    this is a pretty cool event idea though none the less and good luck to everyone :)

    Question:
    I know it was said that you had to enter all of your entries in one email, but
    I already sent in an entry already before i realized there was a (jumped the gun, i was excited b:chuckle).

    Ive come up with some new ideas, but since I already sent in an email, does that mean i cant send in anymore?

    I would sent the rest in on one email, of course, but i was curious as to whether or not i could

    I did similar and read the website rules before the forum, my set is uncropped and all(the website rules kinda confused me). Ah well, please don't shoot us for it, as the "full" rules are only here.

    Is it allowed to borrow clothes from friends?
    I guess so since you may use the "Try clothes" option.
    If yes, you gotta send the specific details from the clothing along as well?

    Ok, this might sound stupid, but when you say come up with a cool name for your fashion, what exactly are the stipulations? I wanted to make a name of maybe 2-3 words, then kind of a "tagline" for the set :3

    So the set in the CS will be available in some kind of box then? Since we don't need to name set parts? Or do we :O Ahh I'm so excited.

    Edit: MORE questions, ahhh. Are we best in the standing pose? Or are other poses such as sitting, etc, allowed? Or if we do have a sitting pose, where it might be harder to see all the fashion, should we include a standing one as part of the image? O_O I want a perfect entry.

    Sure if you can, I'm sure we could figure it out but it would make our lives easier.

    *prepares*
    A few words is fine, like my set name would be "spoons hawtness" or "epic spoonery set" I honestly am not sure about how long it can be, but keep it to a few words.

    Yes it will be made into a set bundle, even if the parts were mixed and matched from other sets.

    I would think standing is the best for visibility, but if you want to include a pic of you in some other pose feel free. Two pics of the same set would still be one submission, and we would only use one picture for the second round.

    It's not eating with spoons, it's eatwithspoons! As in "Hey you! Eat with spoons nao!" or "Pardon me madam, eat with spoons?"

    sure if you don't wanna give your idea away by asking the question, message me

    We're not going to burn you at the stake for it. The real reason why I ask for it cropped is because I've been experimenting with JPEGs, and an uncropped PWI screenshot with a decent resolution comes in at about 850k. Unfortunately this means that the majority of the memory that the picture takes up isn't even of your character. If you cropped a really high res pic we could probably get a closer view of your set rather than when we see in a plain screenshot. Does that make sense? Haven't finished my coffee yet.

    This kinda worries me because I'm trying to theme my sets and some of them require background to make sense. I used the screenshot feature to zoom in on my char so I think that you can see the fashion well enough that if I keep it under 1MB background is fine?

    I'd post a pic but... yeah. Not happening. b:chuckle

    Oh no, that's perfectly OK. b:victory but you can crop out the UI stuff at least which is what we really don't need.
