Winter Pixel Contest(s)

[Fairy]

❅ Pixel Retype Contest

❄ About

Users are tasked with taking a Pokemon sprite (one of three, chosen ahead of time by Aiden and myself) and making it an Ice type. This can be done by changing the color, changing the features by adding custom parts, or otherwise altering the Pokemon to look like an Ice type.

Chosen Pokemon Sprites

Rules may include:

- Users must use one of the provided sprites
- Image must stay within the 96x96 frame
- Image must not go over 24 colors

❄ Judging

The pieces will be judged according to three different elements: Concept, Complexity, and Execution. Members can earn between 1 and 5 in rating for each category (so no score can be higher than 15 for any one entry). The average of number of every category will be accumulated and added to the total. The total number of points a user earns is then added to the user's overall score.

Example:

So let's say I enter and the average of everyone's vote comes to:

Complexity: 3
Execution: 4
Concept: 3
Total: 10​

I would earn 10 points, and those points could be added to the result of the next competition.
