Game border drawing contest - Canceled

*Update: Don't bother.*

Here is a half-contest, half-request for all of you:

Fabulist:RH shows a Game Boy-like image as a top border around the actual game screen. While playing, you will be able to swap borders at anytime.

Therefore I offer you to create your own border to be featured in this game. Any entry that meets the requirements and a minimal level of quality will be accepted and featured.

Here is a quick explanation on how to participate:

1. I recommend using IDraw (click here to download) in order to draw your entries.

2. You may use one of these two templates (right-click on them and choose Save Image As):


Or make a 320x240 image. 80 pixels from the left and 48 pixels from the top, draw a 160x144 blank square (this empty space is saved for the actual game screen).

3. You can look at this game's screenshots and read the info on the game's profile for inspiration. You can draw anything.
If you wish to use the same Game Boy palette as in the screenshots, here are the RGB values of all four colors:
White: R248 G248 B200
Pale: R184 G192 B88
Med: R128 G136 B64
Dark: R64 G80 B40

4. Save your entries under the png format, upload them to your RMN Locker and let me know when they are ready.
If any entry requires minimal editing in order to be compatible with the game, I will take care of it.

The contest is open to everyone. "Winners" will have their borders available in the game and receive credit.

Feel free to ask any question if anything is unclear :)
Have fun !!

There ya go! Good idea, I'll give it a shot if I get any inspiration.
I think I may be able to apply to this:) I am currently working on a bunch of sprites for Fantasia, so I may be able to do this on the side. Wish me luck:)

In the process of rethinking the game I decided to get rid of the Game Boy style resolution. The game will use the full 320x240 available size.
I initially wanted to keep the Game Boy specs so the game would truly be 8-bit but now my vision has changed. So please don't waste time drawing anything.

I'll update the game's description and start posting new progress soon.
