Full Bloom

Alt Tag

Entry period: May 15 - Jun 27

This is just a "challenge", not a contest with any winners or anything that could cause drama.
Everyone who follows the rules and the theme will be featured in a gallery once it's over. The gallery might have extra details depending on the theme, and the way the pics are arranged is random.
Although the previous challenge had most people going with more elaborate posing for the splash screen format, this is still about the glams first. Don't worry too much about posing skills and such.

"Full Bloom" Rules:
  • The glam should be inspired by Spring, but that's deliberately open-ended. Anything remotely related goes: flowers, gardening, faeries, spring festivals and holidays, druids, cottagecore, etc.
  • Weapon is optional, but it must be a vanilla glam your character could actually use. (No DoH AF mixed with Healing gear, for example)

How to enter:

  • Catbox link (if you want to avoid having to compress the image) or just attach the image in the thread as normal
  • Again: glamour must be vanilla. No modded hair, body, gear or stuff like that.

Two ways to submit the glam:

  • Reply to one of the anchors where I'll post about the challenge
  • Post your entry whenever you want with the code XGC04 included in the post (I'll look up in the archive from time to time and won't miss it)

Can I use ReShade/Brio/Ktisis?

Yes, these are fine, the presentation is up to you.

Does it have to be a solo entry?

No, that's part of the presentation, and it's not a contest, so feel free to include more than one character.

7.25 will come out during the entry period, can I change my entry and/or post another one using gear that comes with the patch?

That's fine as well.
