New Look and New Mascot Contest!

Yello!


It's been a while since I've posted an announcement. As you can see, I'm in the process of completely revamping the forum. I thought it was about time that our message boards reflected our status as a club that's completely independent from Club Penguin. Please let me know what you think of the changes!

Also, I think it's about time TRT had a completely new mascot, so I'm holding a contest for you guys to make up and vote on our new one! Here's how it'll work:
1) Draw what you think our new mascot should look like (in real life or on the computer) and post it here. NOTE: Please don't use ANY pre-existing/licensed characters (Mario, Batman, etc) as the basis for your character. Your mascot must be an ORIGINAL CREATION.
2) All submissions will be voted on by you, the forumers.
3) The winning submission will be redrawn by me (So no worries if you're not the best artist!) and inserted into the banner and other appropriate places on the forums and chat.

Your name could go down in TRT history, so get those creative brains pumping! I'll stop taking submissions and officially open the voting on JULY 2ND, 2011, so don't wait to get your art on!

Hmm..good question. Feel free to make more than one character in case we don't get enough entries, but be prepared to choose one design to enter should we have plenty of participants.

Oh, thank you for bringing that up. I want it to be an original creation so it can be used anywhere without copyright limitations. I'll update the first post.

The mascot should be an animal of some sort. Human mascots never really cut it.

That's cool, Aang. But it looks just a tad too much like King Boo. We can't use any copyrighted characters.

Do you think doing a red panda would be ok? I.e pandanda. As long as I actually draw it and not nick a picture lol. Cause I know what I'm going to do but I can't decide on what animal :/ and a panda seems to fit the bill

Good thought on having a contest for the mascot, SG. I just wanted to ask if the character can be anything e.g. from a toast to a wolf, or do you want something specific (BtwI know we can't use characters that belong to companies and such) ?

there

If you use a red panda just make sure it doesn't look similar to Pandanda's style. Try to put your own spin on it.

Any kind of "living" being-such a animals, robots, or personified inanimate objects-are fine, just as long as they're an original creation.

CLICK THE PICTURE!!!

Spoiler:

Finally finished(kinda, I got shading wrong). Hope you guys like it.

EDIT: "Fixed"() it just a bit.
