Fashion Contest Guidelines:
All players must follow the game & forum rules.
For Hosts:
☆ Contests in this section are to be single-round only. They may be non-edit, edit, or have both non-edit and edit entries allowed.
☆ SR Contests may last no shorter than 12 hours and no longer than 120 hours. Include the time limit and type in your title.
Examples:
Sassy Sandals (36 Hours Edit)
Sassy Sandals (24 Hours Non-Edit)
Sassy Sandals (72 Hours E)
Sassy Sandals (12 Hours E/NE)
☆ There should be only one contest of any theme at any one time. Before you start a contest, search the section to be sure there aren't any similar contests already open.
☆ You may only open one contest at any time. Additional contests will be closed.
☆ You may not offer a prize of Fashionista dollars, attitude, or pop.
☆ Contests are to involve elements from this game site. You may not host contests that require players to visit a different site in order to participate.
☆ As soon as your contest closes, create a post that says "CLOSED" to avoid confusion and late entries. Contact a Moderator to add CLOSED to your title. Include a link to your contest in the message.
☆ You must post the winners of your contest within 24 hours after your contest closes. Your thread will be closed 24hours after your contest ends. Post your results in your contest thread. Do not make a new topic just to announce your winners.
☆ After you post your contest results, please notify a Moderator. Include a link to your contest in the message.
☆ Contest threads are for entries only. No chat allowed.
☆ Upon request, contest threads may be left open 24 hours after results have been posted to allow participants to give the hosts feedback. This is the only time chatting is allowed in the contest threads. Please stay on topic.
☆ Do not advertise your contest in other threads, on players' profiles, or private messages.
☆ If you've sent a request to a Moderator notifying us that you've posted results for your current contest, that completes your responsibility for that contest. You may open a new contest as soon as you've sent this request. You don't have to wait for your old contest thread to be closed.
For Participants:
☆ Use your own images that were created on this site ONLY. You may not use images from the web or other game sites. Violating this rule will disqualify you from the contest and you will receive an official warning and/or ban.
☆ You are allowed to create one post for each contest.
☆ Contest threads are for entries only. No chat allowed.
☆ Upon the host's request, contest threads may be left open 24 hours after results have been posted to allow participants to give the hosts feedback. This is the only time chatting is allowed in the contest threads. Please stay on topic.
☆ Do not enter contests that have Closed in their titles and/or a post by the host that says Closed.
How To:
You can download an image of your Fashionista using the option on of the Goodies Page or the camera in the bottom right corner of your closet. Then upload your image to an image hosting site. Finally, insert the link to your uploaded image in your post with the following BBcode:
Code:

Please Note:
☆ If a player violates the contest rules three times, that player will be prevented from hosting and/or participating in contests for 30 days.
Additional Information:
☆ Hosts have the option of allowing players to create posts to interacting with each other. This needs to be listed in the first post of the contest.
☆ Listing winners isn't important to most of the SWC part of the LaF community. If the host adds a final story or epilogue and then says something like, "thank you all for participating" that's still results.
