Hello all! The Archives of Nethys is excited to announce that we are going to be running a regular set of contests to have users create new themes for the site. Each contest will be inspired by a new rulebook or a part of Golarion and the winning theme will be featured on the site in Shelyn’s Corner (located in the top-right corner of the site).
Certain contests will be for permanent themes while others will be rotating, available for several months before disappearing to make way for new themes. All submitted themes will be judged by the AoN team members and we’ll pick the one we feel best embodies the contest inspiration, is aesthetically pleasing, and is easy to use on the site.
The first contest’s inspiration will be Howl of the Wild. Join Baranthet Zamendi and the crew of the Zoetrope as they search for the legends of the Wardens of the Wild. When submitting your theme, please put [Howl of the Wild] in the subject line.
All submissions must be received by 25 August, 11:59 PM (PST). We’ll try and have a winner announced by the end of the month, and have some new contests announced for September.
Please bear with us as we figure out this process. Contest details are subject to change between contests as we figure out what works and what doesn’t work.
1. Go to our Theme Designer page. Read the contest rules and make sure you understand them.
2. Play around with the color sliders until you find a theme you like. Then go to the bottom-left where it says "Share" and copy that code (the code starts with "primary-bg")
3. Send an email to ContestSubmissions@archivesofnethys.com with the contest inspiration in the subject line. In the body, please paste the code you copied in step 2 and provide a name for your submission. The name will be used to announce the winner and to attribute the theme when it's on the site; it can be your name, a username, or the name of one of your characters.
