Yep, I've decided to hold a contest. Actually, I have several ideas that I really want to do, but I think I'll only do 2 for now. But I have at least 3 other ideas so look forward to future contests as well! Now, onward with the contest info!



Since it's October, I figured it's time to throw this contest first!

~XYROCA'S HALLOWEEN CONTEST~

All entries due by halloween. Winner's will be announced a week later.



~INTERACTING CHARACTERS CONTEST~
Draw or create a photomanipulation of one of my characters below interacting with one of yours. It could be something that we've roleplayed, to what would happen if they ever met.
