Contest Info[]
Grand Prize Winner:
- 100,000 Gaia Gold, winning design becomes Gaia virtual Item
Deadline:
- 07/26/2010
Rules[]
Please read these rules and guidelines carefully! Submissions that do not follow these rules will be disqualified so hard your head will spin. Also, be sure to check out the longer, more boring Legal Rules.
Entry Qualifications
- The contest is open to all Gaians!
- Complete the entire entry form - we will toss incomplete entries.
- Each entry must be one item.
- Entries that are too similar to copyrighted material - like items from games, movies, TV shows, etc. - will be disqualified.
- All submissions must be your own designs. You can't submit other peoples' work, or contract people to do the design for you.
- Entries must not use the Coca-Cola logo or name in their submissions
Timing
- All entries must be received by 10:00 AM (Pacific Time) on 07/26/2010.
- We will judge the initial round of entries and choose finalists based on our judging criteria (originality, clarity of presentation of idea, feasibility of conversion to belt item).
- Once the finalists are chosen, Gaians will vote for their favorite item. We will tally the results and announce the winning item a week or two after voting concludes.
Prizes
- The winner will have the satisfaction of having his or her design made into a real Gaia item for sale in one of our gold shops... and the satisfaction of receiving 100,000 gold. The winner also gets the item for free
Guidelines
- Though you may submit unlimited entries, we highly recommend that you choose your best idea and enter only once
- Please submit items with only one pose or equip mode. If you submit an item with many poses or equip modes, we will choose which of the poses to judge
- We would very much prefer sketches and illustrations rather than edits of existing Gaia items.
- Many people will likely submit the same or similar item designs; this doesn't mean that someone stole your idea. However, we will do our best to eliminate copycat entries.
- If we receive similar entries (and if we have no suspicion of theft/copying) we will simply choose the one that best conveys the theme.
- Please keep it PG-13
Winner[]
- G-Rave Belt - A stylish Gaia utility belt with pouches, loops and clips for storing your most precious things.
- Designed by Kiarrii, winner of the 2010 Create-a-Belt Contest, sponsored by Coke.
