It's time to introduce to you all a BRAND NEW CONTEST.

As per Katadm's implicit instructions (before she left) it is time to open up a new contest for all of you lovely site members to enter.

REDESIGN THE HOMEPAGE!!!!!

The perfectly wonderful and magnificent Kat believes that the current content layout for the homepage is.. well.. she thinks it could be better, and she wants to see what you guys can come up with! Now, you have a whole lot of freedom with this contest, but there are a few guidelines you have to follow!
  • You need to include the following:
    • Announcements
    • Happenings
    • Affiliations
  • You should also find ways to incorporate
    • Trendy Things and
    • The Feed
  • Emphasize Trendy Things
    • This is a system that Kat loves dearly, and she wants to see it put to good use! Include Threads, Gallery Submissions, Polls, and everything!

Now, before you drop out thinking but I'm not an artist...

DON'T WORRY!

Contestants are welcome to simply draw boxes, symbolizing where things are to be placed. Just make sure to elaborate with colour and/or describe JavaScript effects.

When you've prepared your sketch (or sketches! Enter multiple times, we want THE BEST looking homepage!) go the Galleries and submit it under the category Route 50 > Homepage Contest. I CAN NOT stress the importance of this step. Only entries in this specific category will be included in the running.

Just like the last contest, the grand prize for this one will be a shiny new ribbon, the use of your winning entry, and a FREE ONE MONTH COOLTRAINER SUBSCRIPTION (when we make that system).

So GET WORKING and SHOW US WHAT YOU CAN DO!

Deadline: Saturday, August 21

and finally.. the first place winners, of whom will be awarded the honour of having their idea made into a side quest as well as getting a shiny 1st place ribbon and a free one month cooltrainer subscription (when we have those things finished, anyway ^^;) are....

.... Navarr, I tell you this with the utmost urgency.

I. It's too darned early. GO TO SLEEP.

II. You forget to add Fexible as a winner for she worked with Icebreath on the King's Marsh entry.

That is all.

*realizes she forgot to title her entry but is ok with the name in the news post* Awesome job everyone! Congrats to the winners!

I might do the new contest. MAYBE. But I can't think of much right now :3
The Huntress snipes down the false heralds of death
Shooting them down from her intangible concealment
Unseen in the gentle white mist of softly falling snow
She strikes with the clarity of a flutist's delicate melody
