Welcome to Badge of the Week!

Interested in making badges? Looking for a creative outlet? Wanting to make a valuable artistic contribution to the hotel? 

You've come to the right place!

Badge of the Week is an article that allows users to explore their creative side and design a badge that could potentially win and be a part of the Hotel. Each week there will be a set theme in which users will have to make badges that are in accordance to that theme. 

(Winning badges will be available in the catalog under the Badge Shop for users to have access to.)

We are on the lookout for unique badge ideas and creations. We are not only judging based on aesthetics, but also the originality and quality of the idea you have come up with! 

Each week will consist of a new theme and we take all theme suggestions into consideration.

We are excited to see what you guys have to offer!

Down to business. You must meet the requirements for your badge to be valid.

-Badge size must be inbetween 40x40 minimum to 42x42 maximum.

-Badge must be submitted in .gif format (add this to the end of the link)

(Save your image file as a .gif and then upload the badge to imgur.com)

-You may use guidelines from existing imagery but there is a fine line between copying an image and using it as a guide/inspiration

-Copied entries from existing badges will be disqualified.

(No theres actually a theme- that parts not a joke.)

This is a very broad theme but allows room for several possibilities. We are going to allow this theme to branch onto things such as comedy, an image of perhaps a joker, deck of cards, maybe a wand and allow a range of creative options that can somehow link to April fools and the idea of deception.

This is a bit of a challenging theme so if you need some inspiration or have any questions- contact us!
