Summary: You are asked to create a 200x200 image representing yourself as a yaxay user. Can include your down interpretation of your personality and/or style. HAVE FUN
Yaxay Tile Event (This Page) | WIP Submission | Final Submissions
Your Mission, should you choose to accept it, is to create an image tile based on a selected theme.
The theme of this event is: You. Try to create an image that incorporates your artwork, symbolism of yourself, and information about you as a yaxay user.

NOTE: The final submission box will close in 2 weeks. The event can continue as long as people are willing to create images however.

What should i add to my tile (Suggestions)
Below are some suggestions as to what you could put on your User Title
  • Username
  • Website URL - Personal/non-business sites only.
  • Interests - IE: Designer, Programmer
  • Yaxay Logo - Download Here
  • Screenshots of Yaxay - If you want to incorporate screen shots yaxay go ahead
  • Yaxay Name/URL - Download Font here. (Rar)
  • Yaxay colors are encouraged - #223146 (blue) and #FF862E (orange)
What Rules/Guidelines must i follow?
Your task is to create an image based on the guidelines as detailed below:
  • Tile Size - 200x200 pixels at 72 dpi
  • jpg/gif/png - No other formats accepted
  • No Animation - Must be a STATIC image
  • No Advertising - This is a USER title, Not an ad for your hosting company.
  • Under 20k - Each image should be under 20k
  • Many Entries, only one displayed - We may be selecting a few tiles to showcase on yaxay, you may enter as many times as you want but only one can make it to the showcase

YAXAY EVENT:
This is an event, and not a contest. This is just for fun, there are no winners or losers. We will, however, be selected a few tiles to showcase on the yaxay site sometime in the future. By submitting an entry you agree to let us showcase it! Enjoy!

WHERE DO I SUBMIT MY WORKS IN PROGRESS (WIP)
Submit your WIP for review in the Yaxay Tile Event WIP gallery forum

WHERE DO I SUBMIT MY FINAL ENTREE?
Submit your final entry in the 'Yaxay User Tile Final Submission Box'

WHY CAN'T I DO A TILE TO ADVERTISE MY BUSINESS
This is supposed to focus on the users of yaxay, not your business. If your username happens to be your hosting name thats fine, however you still can't post a link to your hosting website. This is supposed to be about you as a person and NOT your business.

WHATS THE POINT
For fun, pure and simple.

CAN I USE ARTWORK THAT I DIDN'T CREATE
I think this would defeat the purpose of the event, don't you think? The only expection i have is if you are a coder and you have someone else do one for you. I will also except drawings/vectors of yourself that someone might have drawn for you.

WHAT DO YOU PLAN TO DO WITH THE SELECTED TILES?
Its still a little hazy because we aren't sure of the number of submissions nor how many we will choose. I left the description vague because i don't want to post anything final. The current ASSUMED plan is to showcase the tiles on the site.

Event now live!! Enjoy guys!! This is just for fun and there is not wrong or right way to do it. For my own submission i took a piece i did 3 years ago and slapped on some text. *shrugs* Its just whatever you feel like making.

Special thanks to Pasta, this was his idea and he worked on setting it up, and thanks to Salathe for patching up some of the holes. Good work guys.

And of course thanks to all of you i harrassed for feedback while we were setting this up.

Sweet DPQ! I love this, such a great idea. We should make a gallery dedicated to them?
