[Miniranks | $100 in prizes] Sythe Christmas Tree - A CDT Event

Ardy · Dec 22, 2014

We're terribly un-decorated!
Sythe wants to put together a Christmas tree of our own! Add your name to the Christmas tree! The more the better!

How does it work?
- Post on this thread to have your name added as an ornament to the Sythe tree! The tree will be revealed Christmas day!
- You may also choose a SMALL transparent icon to be added along with your name if you so choose.
- It can be no larger than 32x32px (mini rank size).
Simplest way to make an icon:

Find your image on Google, I recommend using transparent search to avoid ugly background boxes which can be a hassle if you use this simple method:

Click the image of choice, then choose "View original image"

Check the image is transparent, I usually just quickly drag the image on to the nav-bar and if a white border appears, it's not transparent

As you can see, this one isn't transparent:

and this one is transparent:

Next, go to www.online-image-editor.com and paste the direct link you got from "View original image" in to the upload box:

You'll find a toolbar above your image, find the "Resize" tool and resize the image so it's no bigger than 32x32.

Have "Aspect ratio" ticked to avoid stretched/blurry icons

Apply this change and then right click the image and "copy image":

Go to www.imgur.com and hold Ctrl+V to upload the icon:

This step is important, as although you can get a direct link from the editor, they expire shortly.

! - All entries that are deemed to be inappropriate by CDT/staff or of wrong format will not be added.

What do I get?
- All participants will receive 1 point for adding their name to the signature!
