2. Costume must follow the rules of the sim. No working weapons, no adult themes, and so on.
3. Costumes may be made, purchased, or scrounged from dumpsters. This is a fun costume creative contest, not a building contest.
4. The judging will be done by the means of photos of the avatar in their costume. This means that you must either, supply a good quality photo of the costume with you in it, OR, you may request a photo be taken by the Herald staff to be submitted to the contest. A photo studio has been set up in the Guild Hall in Tir na Lir for you to use and for the Staff to use for this contest.
Citizen Voting and Judging will be combined to choose the winners.
