We here at the Azure Mantle Graphic College support all forms of artistic expression, whether it be through video and song or through drawing and painting. The Puffin Gathering will be a week long festival, hosted by the AMGC, dedicated to art and community and it will be open to anyone who wishes to show their work off. The festival will last the week of February 14th through the 21st. Submissions can be posted by each individual, in their own thread, and are not limited in numbers or content, though we prefer PG-13 material. Any work not of PG-13 quality, we ask that you place it in spoiler tags and make a note of explicit content. Please use common sense and some discretion when posting your material.

Submissions are eligible for an awards ceremony for each category in which they are listed, with results being posted on the last day of the festival. Voting will be one by the community over the course of the week.

To submit a piece, simply go to the NADC's forums [url="http://forum.cn-nadc.net/"]by clicking here[/url] and register for an account. From there, you should have access to the Azure Mantle Graphics College. Stay classy, CN :).

Please join us on #amgc if you have any questions.

We decided to include it for the lulz. We don't expect anyone to actually do it haha. If someone does, I'll make sure they get something.

Does it have to be about Cybernations?

Not necessarily. This is more of an event we're hosting to encourage CN's community to show off their artistic side, rather than a theme contest about CN.

[/quote]It's actually being organized by a guy that doesn't even play CN anymore. You're free to make it about whatever you like.

Yeah, it's being run by Daefaroth, AKA Fizzex now. He's usually on CN at around update time, I recommend stopping by #nadc and saying hi.

Very artistic! It reminds me of the work by René Magritte, "La trahison des images"

It does not, it can be about any topic you want it to be. Let your imagination and creativity go wild.
