Board 8 » CBX Schedule and Image Submission
With the Division Finals currently running, we know you're interested in what's coming up for the rest of the contest, so here's what we have planned (barring technical difficulties):

All "days" are UTC (starting at 4PM Pacific/7PM Eastern):

Nov Fri 16 - Mon 19: Division Finals, 2 per day (113-120)
Nov Tue 20 - Mon 26: No battles, Second Chance Bracket entries open
Nov Tue 27 - Fri 30: Winner Bracket Round 1, 2 battles per day (121-128)
Dec Sat 1 - Sun 2: Loser Bracket Round 1, 2 battles per day (129-132)
Dec Mon 3 - Tue 4: Winner Bracket Round 2, 2 battles per day (133-136)
Dec Wed 5 - Thu 6: Loser Bracket Round 2, 2 battles per day (137-140)
Dec Fri 7: Winner Bracket Semifinal 1 (141)
Dec Sat 8: Winner Bracket Semifinal 2 (142)
Dec Sun 9: Loser Bracket Round 3, 2 battles (143-144)
Dec Mon 10: Loser Bracket Round 4, 2 battles (145-146)
Dec Tue 11: Winner Bracket Final (147)
Dec Wed 12: Loser Bracket Semifinal (148)
Dec Thu 13: Loser Bracket Final (149)
Dec Fri 14: Final Battle (150)

Once the final 16 characters are determined on Tuesday, we'll open up user image submissions. You'll be able to submit both foreground and background images for each character, 240 x 120 pixels.

A foreground image should focus solely on the character, with the middle third potentially centered (on narrow mobile devices), be a PNG with a transparent background (as the current images are), submitted facing to the right, and reversible depending on which side of the bracket they'll be facing. There's not a lot of room for creativity here, and we already have default images set up and ready to go, but alternates are more than welcome. You can find the default images in the /images/x/char2/ folder here on the site ( https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/images/x/char2/97.png
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/images/x/char2/97.png ).

A background image should be a bit muted (as the character will be in the foreground), but can represent the character and their game(s) as creatively as you want. We suggest overlaying the default foreground images on top to make sure that they'll look good when they're put together.
"Um, let's face it, you'd be better off staying at the Hilton."

Allen, you need to look at some of the vote stuffing for Tifa. There were people on this board admitting to stuffing votes
BKSheikah , my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club

Kinda wish you asked for this weeks ago when people had issues with multiple R1 pics. They probably didnt change any results, but a few in particular were just very ugly to look at. A few guys here were even super excited waiting to be asked to make pics. Now it sorta feels like it only mattered for the elite section of the contest
Will Bowsette pics for Bowser be allowed?

Shame there isn't more creative freedom this time around. I was hoping they would be like the Games contest where we could center them to the preset dimensions.

So we make the foreground and background images separately, meaning that a different foreground might be used with the background we use?

Yeah

I think its to prevent pic sabotage, we can make our user shit but there will always be a chance voters see a neutral image mostly made of whatever Allen came up with

I was actually thinking of seeing if Allen would take a Crono sprite.

Link vs Cloud is on the release date of SSBU. This has to be the match picture in some way:

Still a great image, but it's always looked silly to me because of how mismatched the sword sizes are.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.
Some quick foreground pic ideas I thought of. Still trying to think of some cool background ideas

Why is Cloud in the picture twice and nobody else is?
While it was a promo image for Cloud being added to SSB4, that doesn't really explain why there are two Cloud.

You put your RESOLVE HAT back on, which conveniently is the same hat as your NORMAL HAT.

A focal point of that direct was that Cloud had two outfits

Im still struggling to think of good background pics

Maybe like important levels or equipment or items like Chaos Emeralds for Sonic?

I just dont know how to make a background have a bunch of fancy stuff but still be muted and have a bunch of it still be visible (especially big characters like Bowser if you want to do things like include the Peach crown)

i was just gonna do what me, KP and Ulti did back in the day when we were just starting out and had no artistic skill at all and take screenshots from games and just blur/sponge tool them

it's not high art but there's not much you can do with these backgrounds and have them work with every single submitted image. we don't even know what allen is gonna accept into rotation.

just focus on making them work with the default Allen pic i guess

pixel art of stages could be pretty good
