Hello. I have another question, it's about the 2D category
Is it ok for my lineart to be traditional(drawn on paper) while everything else digital?

Yes you can have your lines be done traditional.

Guys I am new here and I am really confused about how u submit your entry. I am entering for the 2D one. The rule says something about submitting it to your topics first post. Can someone guide me step-by-step. That would be highly appreciated.

I'm sorry, I'm kinda slow at this heat conditions (it's about 95 F in here), but how far rule about post-production goes for 3D contestants ? Can I make fog via ZDepth, some color correction, etc? Or this rule just like "no fake new geometry" one? What about sky backplate, is it allowed?
And what is judging criteria: only design matters, or technical aspects also will be considered, like texture sizes, polycount, etc?
Thanks.

Hey guys

@mgadiali214 Welcome to the forums! You just need to go to the Worlds 2D category and in the right upper corner you will have "New topic" button. Create you topic (with the name according to the Rules) and post your pictures there! Use the "Reply" button to make new posts in your topic.
That's all there is to it. Your final image should be posted there too.
Be sure to read the Submission Requirements also.

@Bohdan_Lvov Here are the Submission Requirements for the 3D category.
"Everything has to be 100% 3D with only minor post-processing." means try to do as little as possible (some color correction is ok though).
Technical aspects are not important in this contest.

@obra-kalla Hi, it's super ok to write as a reply, that way at least I get a notification to know someone's needing me
That is exactly the right way, and you are doing everything right.
As far as people not replying - sometimes it's hard to get attention in a sea of other contestants. Commenting on other people's topics and making friends by supporting other people in the competition is usually the way to change that!!

@MrBobarian "The art must be your own - all of it."
But you know what? Just to make super sure, I'll verify the textures and get back to you.

@MrBobarian so I have an answer for our 'grey area' problem, sorry for the delay.
It is ok to use downloaded textures / materials, as long as it's implemented well enough that nobody can tell.

Hope that clears it out once and for all

If i live in Quebec can I still enter to gain exposure and possibly get a job? Or am I prohibited to even enter and make a post about my environment?

We can't force you out of the contest If you're uneligible to participate and still do, then you're technically disqualified for not following the rules, but if you don't mind then be our guest!

I was so pumped up about this contest but now I'm really confused. I live in India. And it's not in the list of countries. I read your reply saying I can post everything from my current account but have to state that someone else (in this case, my friend in an eligible country) won the competition, so you can send the prizes to them?
Is that right? Or is it the other way around where I have to create a new account with their address and then clarify that it is them who won the contest?

Which measurement do we need to use when creating an image? pixel/inch or pixel/centimeter?

this should help you. Check out the submission requirements here

Thank you for your reply but my question was about the tab in PS when creating a file. You can select pixels per inch or pixels per cm. I didn't know which one to choose

@tbrk Both pixels per inch and pixels per cm are important when printing your digital file. As we only need the digital format, this parameter is up to you
