proposed challenge rules

New page

== Regular challenges ==

Usually have no rules, other than have fun!

== Splash screen challenges ==

Here are some proposed rules:

* must be done in Synfig only, no external images
* must be able to be rendered with Synfig from SVN (otherwise it won't work with the new release)
* must contain copyright info
* must include full source code, preferably all in one .sif
* must be licensed under the GNU GPLv2 or later
** Public Domain or CC0 is an acceptable alternative
* must not depend on specific fonts
* must be a still image since the code isn't yet ready for animations
* should probably include the Synfig logo, either by referencing logo.sif or recreating it in a different form
* should probably include the words "Synfig Studio"
* should probably include the version number
* should probably be smallish, 300x400 is a reasonable size
* should probably be relevant to the Synfig community, you may want to search through the IRC/list/wiki/etc archives and find a joke or recurring theme for inspiration
* should probably be accompanied by website artwork or the artist must should to providing website artwork soon after the release.

Generalised timeline:

* challenge starts about 1 month before the release
* challenge closes 1 week before the release
* voting starts 1 week before the release
