🖼️ Monthly Banner Update
🔻 What is this?
This is exclusive to CITADEL members. We live all around the globe and aren't close to each other, but we love the idea of commemorating our time together in this online space. Like a group photo, the monthly banner is a kind of "friends photo" created for this purpose! 💙
🔻 Themes and Voting
To make it more fun, we add themes to the banner (e.g., Christmas, Halloween, Summer, niche themes like cyberpunk or Japanese aesthetics, or themes based on anime genres). The next theme is decided by the members through a vote. The winning theme is then used, and images are submitted.
🔻 Submission Rules
1. One Character Only: No group shots or multiple characters in a single image.
2. Full-Body Shots Required: The entire character must be visible, with no cropped limbs or heads.
3. High Resolution: Use high-quality images, ideally 1000x1000px or higher.
4. Natural Angle: The pose should look natural, like a candid photo. Avoid selfies, extreme top-down or bottom-up angles, or distorted perspectives.
5. No Watermarks: Submissions must be free of visible watermarks, logos, or text overlays.
6. No AI-Generated Images: To maintain a consistent visual style, images created primarily by AI generators are not allowed. However, using AI tools to ethically enhance or upscale an existing original image is permitted.
