*Totally lurking*
Okay, I just want to clear up some confusion and answer stuff, because I fear my guide may still be confusing (if it is, please speak up! O_O) and some people still seem lost. D:

I'm intrigued...I might enter. When do you need the entries by? Also, what's the rule with reusing sims for modeling competitions? I can make a new one, I just like the one I've been using lol
*Plum modeling competitions! I enter one and now I'm addicted! Lol
My guide states that most competitions allow you to reuse models. xD (Make sure to read it if you haven't. Click the signature.) Hosts should state if they want new models only. If they haven't said so, it generally means they don't care and you should do whatever. I haven't seen a host change their mind at the last minute, either, so you should be fine for future competitions.
Ikr? They are so fun. xD

Can we give our Sims a backstory? I read in the rules something about this, but I got kind of confused whether we can only do it in certain assignments or not .-. i can be so stupid sometimes..
In Bob's rules or my guide? o-o And you aren't stupid! (Why they censored such a word, I will never know).
My guide only states that hosts shouldn't be forcing their competitors to make one, for an Application, just for the sake of making one. If the host wants to know the Sims or the competitor they can put one in the application, but if the host doesn't care they shouldn't be doing it. That is all it really means.
For the competitors, though my guide doesn't state this clearly, you are allowed to write a backstory for your sims when creating them. I never meant that you aren't allowed to think of one when creating a sim. O_O It is only stating that Applications, not assignments, should rarely have bio/backstory/why I want to join sections.
And to show that you aren't alone, I make up personalities for my models, all the time, otherwise I can't make one! :lol:

Okay so a lot of you are voting no editing, but editing is the only thing I can do. So how about if you want to edit you can and if you don't don't?
All you have to do is build the background instead of editing it. You're probably allowed to use cc items and upload from the gallery as well. To be honest I've always felt editing limited you.
I am honestly confused about this. :open_mouth: How does editing limit you? Do you think you aren't allowed to use ingame stuff as well or something? Help my thought process here? xD
From what I have seen though, editing doesn't limit anyone. You can draw hair, clothes, objects, backgrounds, and do cool effects and everything else inbetween with editing. There isn't a limit because all ideas are possible, it's just the editor that is limited by their creativity and skill. That is why it's important to learn, otherwise you can't do much. :/
