2022 Valentine's Patreon Campaign Banner Contest!
🕑 Added 2022-01-15 01:59:26 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
Valentine's Day is soon approaching! In Japan, Valentine's Day in February is when girls give chocolate to boys. It's on White Day that boys give chocolate to girls.
Thank you again to all of our Patreon supporters for keeping us alive. As mentioned during the 2021 Spring campaign, this February we will be refilling the AniDB bank account with a new fundraising Patreon post.
The Contest
Users have the chance to contribute their creativity to the Patron post banner! See the submissions of our 2021 Spring contest here: https://anidb.net/forum/thread/108260
For this contest, submit a Valentine's Day or White Day themed AniDB anime banner! The winning banner will be featured as our 2022 Valentine's Patreon fundraising post banner. The banner should tie in Valentine's Day or White Day themes with both anime and AniDB.
What does a 'Valentine's Day or White Day theme' entail?
The theme centres around love of course! Whether this is innocent or very passionate love, the idea is that love is in the air, and you want to show it to your significant other.
Some illustrative examples include:
1. Gifting chocolate and/or love letters
2. Holding hands / hugging / spending time together
3. Public displays of affection
4. Asking someone to be their boyfriend / girlfriend
Etc. This list is non-exhaustive.
The Prize
- The winner will have their banner and username (unless you choose to remain anonymous) featured publicly on our upcoming 2022 Valentine's Patreon fundraising post.
- The winner will also receive a Creative Content badge on their userpage.

The Rules
- Anyone can participate, both Patrons and regular users.
- The submission period will be open from 2022-Jan-15 Saturday to 2022-Feb-11 Friday.
- To enter your submission, simply reply to this AniDB forum thread with your picture.
1. Upload your image to one of the whitelisted image hosts. imgur.com is preferred. Whitelisted hosts: abload.de, tinypic.com, flickr.com, imgsafe.org, imgur.com, ipfs.pics, photobucket.com, picload.org, postimage.org, puu.sh
2. Embed your image in your reply using the image tags.
3. If you wish to make an anonymous submission, send an AniDB forum PM to CDB-Man instead. - The voting period will be from 2022-Feb-12 Saturday to 2022-Feb-20 Sunday. You may vote on as many images as you like.
- If we suspect vote stuffing, then the staff will take this into consideration when looking at the results, and discard entries if needed.
- In the unlikely event of a tie, a runoff vote will be held from 2022-Feb-21 Monday to 2022-Feb-27 Sunday for all images coming first place in the original vote. Each user will only get 1 vote in the runoff.
- In the even-more unlikely event of a tie in the runoff vote, the AniDB staff will decide the winner.
Image Requirements
- Submit an AniDB anime image that will be used as the banner on our upcoming Patreon fundraising post. The banner should tie in this contest's theme (as described above) with both anime and AniDB.
- You are allowed to use the AniDB logo in your image, and it is encouraged!
- Original content is preferred, remixed content is acceptable.
- Since the images will be posted on our public Patreon page, all images must be family-friendly, for all ages.
1. 18+ / adult images will not be accepted.
2. For borderline / ecchi images, the staff (mainly CDB-Man) will have sole discretion to accept or reject the submission. Note: we will lean on the more conservative side. - You are allowed to sign your image with your name (and optionally, your AniDB user ID). Please have the signature in the bottom-right corner.
- All images should be submitted in PNG format to comply with Patreon's requirements.
- For a Patreon post, a 16:9 ratio image would fit best.
- Images should be high resolution, 1080 x 1920 at minimum.
- We reserve the right to disqualify images that don't meet minimum quality standards.
The AniDB logo source files can be found on the original post on our Forum.
I'd also like to ask everyone to name the characters and anime contained in your submission. It helps a lot to identify who they are!
Good Luck And Have Fun!
We are looking forward to your participation. Let the artistic creativity of our anime fans run wild!
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
