Posting Contest and Challenges.

Just to clarify, hypothetical situation: If I have created a character in a design that I posted to the art gallery forum, may I create a new design using that same character and then enter it into a contest? Or, does every entry have to be a new character?

It would depend on the contest and who is judging it. Most of the contests on the forum are created by other members and even the ones that were created by the moderators are generally judged by the winners of the last round of the contest. I’d check the first post in each of the contests to see what the rules say, and if it isn’t clear in that contests rules make a post asking if old designs are acceptable. As to the contests on the Blog page I will leave JR and djuby to answer that question as they run the two weekly blog page contests.
