We know it's late, and we hope the limited time will provide more of a challenge to everyone!
Once again we are looking for aspiring artistes with a flair for the creative, the expressive, the humorous and a knack for designing cool desktop wallpaper calendar designs!
If you're up to the task then step up the plate, send in your design(s) and take part in Round #7 of our Calendar Design Contest for the month of October.
For this round, its time to celebrate the coming of Fall and Halloween, because who doesn't like dressing up and walking around in public?
As an added challenge, all designs will be due by Wednesday, October 7th at 6:00pm PST!
To participate, here’s what you need to do:
1) Begin by downloading our calendar kit for October 2009 HERE.
2) Load the background template into the image manipulation software of your choice and jazz up the template in any manner you like. Examples include: using screen captures, real life photos of yourself (keep it clean!), images found on our website, self created elements, etc. - Just be creative! The stock images included in the calendar kit are a great place to start but feel free to find other sources of inspiration!
In fact, if you're bold enough you aren't even required to use our provided image background. All that is required is that your designs include a calendar grid for the month of October 2009 along with the PWI logo and/or website URL. Keep in mind that judges are usually partial toward designs that encompass the 'theme' of the month - in this case images that conjure up the fall spirit with earthy "harvest" colors to signal the changing of the season and other similar imagery will certainly earn you a point or two of added kudos.
3) When you feel that your calendar is up to par, email your image file to: pwi-events@perfectworldinc.com. Multiple submissions are allowed so don’t be afraid to take risks!
-Subject line: "October Calendar Contest"
-In your email, please include your in-game character name and server in order to receive your prize should you win.
4) The deadline for submissions is Wednesday, October 7th at 6:00 P.M. PDT. All submissions will be reviewed by representatives from the Community, Product and Design teams here at Perfect World Entertainment, and winners will be announced later that week!
The Top 5 Designs (based on criteria such as artistic merit, creativity, humor, expressions, etc.) will be featured on our website and made available for all users to download.
This month's prize will be: Corsair Outfit (male or female)
Rules:
- Send your Calendar design to pwi-events@perfectworldinc.com by 6:00 P.M. (PDT) on Wednesday, October 7th.
- Do not resize the dimensions of the background template (we need it to fit on standard monitor sizes!).
- Designs must incorporate a calendar grid for the month of October, along with the PWI logo and/or the URL of our website.
- Files MUST be in .jpg, .gif or bitmap (.bmp), .png only. But please don't send in SUPER HUGE file sizes, 15Mb or smaller is preferred, but don't make your image too small either!
- Do not use characters, locations, or objects from other intellectual properties, (Perfect World elements only!).
- Please keep your designs in good taste. Submissions that are deemed objectionable will be rejected for consideration.
-Plagiarism or design theft will result in immediate disqualification and a possible DQ from future events.

I believe on Ecatomb it's the pirate outfit.
In other words, what that veno is wearing in the example.
b:chuckle
edit: sorry, female version is caribbean set. Same idea.
Edit2: Trumped by Spoons! b:shocked
Perhaps Corsair is this one then, seems like the only other set that would match the description.

I'm going to have to say take that with a grain of salt Keph: Pirate and Corsair have been confirmed to be different sets

Nice.. reder farm will start now, Exelent !!![SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0

Can we please get a pic of the outfits? b:thanks If I had to guess I'm assuming the pirate outfit for guys and the bowknot for girls. Since there's no pirate outfit for girls at least on Ecatomb and that's the closest to a pirate in my opinion. Also does the winner get to choose the color?[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0

Yea a picture of the outfit would be a great motivation to get to work! b:chuckle I'm guessing it either the Caribbean or the War set..
and since I don't see a limit..we can submit as many entries as we like right?[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

My whole reasoning is, it would take 2-3 hours in front of a computer to make the calendar, if you spread that out over a few days it should be plenty of time. Our graphic designer who made the template did it in a few hours b:shocked
