Wintermoot and I are in the process of creating a badge system for members to display everything they've accomplished in the community and to show new members everything Wintreath has to offer. What better way to help kick off the badge system and show off Wintreath's artistic (and PhotoShop) talent than to allow everyone to create and vote on an official badge for the Summersend Festival?

Your badge can be original art made in MS Paint or PhotoShop, or it can be made of photos or art taken from the Internet -- it can be actually nicely done or shitpost quality. The badges are quite small at 75x75 pixels, so make sure the artwork and/or text is clear enough to read/see at that size. Try to keep it themed with the Summersend Festival, Festival Beach Cove, or one of the events going on during the festival.

An example

Here's an example of a badge I've created that's meant for the badge system -- not the Summersend Festival. Keep in mind it doesn't need to fit the shape or color scheme -- it just needs to be the same size.

For the next week (through Friday, August 25), you can enter the contest and submit your badge. For the remainder of the festival, we will then vote on the best badge, and the person with the most votes will win. The winner will receive 20 Tokens, which they can use to get free Steam keys! And when the badge system takes off, everyone who's participated in the festival will receive the badge that wins.

Is it one submission per person, or can people submit multiple submissions (eg both shitpost and quality)?

Hmm... I'll allow up to three submissions per person.

Attempt 1

Attempt 2

Heh heh, I guess that's one of those things I need to finish working on. Or was everything alright and we were just waiting to release it?

There were just a few badges missing, and the badge creation tool wasn't working last I checked.

I made a... thing...

Figured I should take a crack at this as well.


Voting will start tonight (~10pm ET), so make sure to get an entry in before then!

Oops, forgot to start the voting last night.

Voting is now open and will last until 11pm ET tonight! Everyone gets 1 vote and can change their vote up until the voting ends.

Yeah... @xXTheHydraXx Would you like to only put in one entry, or should I allow 2 votes per person?

Sure I'll just use the second one.

Wait, are participants allowed to vote?

Yup, everyone is.

What if Tau somehow won this?
In the future, we'd have no idea what in the world that badge was for.
