2020 Summer Patreon Campaign Banner Contest!
🕑 Added 2020-07-13 00:15:00 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
Summer is in full swing and it's time to hit the beach, BBQ, camping, and all sorts of outdoor activity. That said, with the global COVID-19 pandemic going on right now, we all need to be careful and unfortunately keep our distance from our friends and family. That should should not stop us from enjoying the weather!
Thank you again to all of our Patreon supporters for keeping us alive. As mentioned during the 2019/2020 New Year's campaign, this summer 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 results of our 2019/2020 New Year's contest here: https://anidb.net/post457378
For this contest, submit a summer-themed AniDB anime banner! The winning banner will be featured as our 2020 Summer Patreon fundraising post banner. The banner should tie in summer themes with both anime and AniDB.
What does a 'summer theme' entail?
A summer theme should be something uplifting and cheery. The idea behind summer is that it is a time to go out, enjoy the weather, and have fun!
Some illustrative examples include:
1. Picnics
2. Beach
3. Summer matsuri
4. Walk along a boardwalk
5. Eating ice cream
6. Playing summer sports (baseball, football/soccer, beach volleyball, etc)
7. Playing in the forest
8. Hiking
9. Visiting a shrine
Etc. This list is non-exhaustive.Hide Spoiler
The Prize
