Welcome to this year's Festival Badge Creation Contest!! All are welcome!

Badges are small icons located on your profile that signify that you have completed tasks worthy of recognition and serve as symbols of achievement for getting involved throughout the many areas and opportunities of Wintreath. You can read more about them here.

Your badge can be original art made in MS Paint/PhotoShop/etc, 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, Wintreath Regional Park, great outdoors, or something that happened during the festival and represents it in a meaningful way.

2017 Winner

Here's an example of the winner (created by Hydra) for Summersend Festival 2017, which had a tropical theme. Keep in mind it doesn't need to fit the shape or color scheme -- it just needs to be the same size.

2019 Winner

Here's an example of the winner (created by Ruguo) for Summersend Festival 2019, which had a culinary theme. As you can see, the border doesn't have to be perfect if you choose to include it.

For the next week (through Thursday, August 27th), 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. After the festival and the winning badge has been added, everyone who's participated in the festival will receive the badge.

The winner will receive 10 SNOWSTONES!

Oops, I was gonna do this tonight, but then video games. I'll submit my entry tomorrow.

ALRIGHT. This is what I came up with.

That raster edge is killing me, but, hey, what can you do -- felt like sticking with the circle border. Also, the font/color isn't totally readable, and you probably can't really tell that's a mountain in the background, but it's not bad overall.

Anyway, somebody else show me up like the past two times!

That's not a terrible design, Gerrick. I like it.

@Gerrick: @Dawcreek is understating it...it's not only 'not a terrible design', it's really good. I personally like it best out of the ones that have won in past years. Thanks for making an entry for the contest, and good job.

* Wintermoot waits to see if anyone thinks they can do better

Haha, I don't think anyone can top that, not even myself.
