    Default Lite Challenge: Make a Cartographer's Guild style Bookmark

    Make a Cartographer's Guild style Bookmark

    Part of our Forums is the Bookmark Forum which has been very active in the past, but the last post there was 2 years ago, and most posts are 3 years or older.
    I want to breathe a little life into this forum by using the Lite Challenge (which could use a little life breathing itself.)
    Here is a link to the Bookmarks Forum.Bookmarks Forum

    The guidelines you should follow are such: The bookmark should be between 200 and 300 dpi, approximately 1.5 to 2 inches wide by 5 to 6 inches long.
    You can make up to 4 bookmarks. If you make more than 1, then your final post should be all of the bookmarks together in one graphic like my example here:
    Bookmark-Page2.jpg

    Please remember to title each thread: "July/Aug/Sept '24 Lite Challenge: < your title here >"

    Also remember to preface each image you want to show up in the thumbnail scraper with: ### Latest WIP ###
    (If you don't, your map won't show up for the voters at voting time, which might hurt your chances. ) Try using the WIP Icon to make it nice and easy.

    Please note: If you put more than one image on the same post, only one of them gets picked up by the picture scrapper
    and it might not be the one you want.

    The challenge will end on or about the 14th of September, after which we'll have 3 days of voting. The winner of this challenge will receive a silver compass, you know you want one!

    Quick rules reminder: The Lite Challenge is open to anyone who has not already won 3 Silver compasses, 1 Gold Compass, or been selected as a featured Cartographer's Choice Map.
    Also, the map has to be started on or after the first day of the challenge, no reusing older maps even if they were not finished, unless you start over from scratch.

    DEADLINE: End of day, September 14. This will be a 2 month Lite Challenge.

    That's too funny - I was just thinking about the bookmark forum the other day and have been working on a couple.

    Am hoping to participate in this one, but still doing the surgery recovery thing at the moment, so very limited focus and movement for another week or so. After that I might be able to start playing with a few ideas rattling around in my head.

    I'm planning one which I hope to start working on in the next few days. I have been looking forward to this one but have been away from home until recently.

    I hope to have time for this. If I can finish the other challenge soon, I will jump in.

    48 hour warning! This challenge will end this Saturday night, sometime after midnight (so technically the early hours of the 15th)
    Plenty of time for a couple of fine cartographers to enter a bookmark or two.
