Hey Surfers,
We’re about to kick start a brand new Clothing Contest on YoVille for all of you who love sand, surf and sun tan! That’s right, make sure you put your creative heads together and come up with some fun beach wear or Miami inspired designs for this one! There’s lots of great stuff you could do for this contest and we can’t wait to check out what you all come up with!
1st place winning designs will be released in game for you and your friends to buy at the Fashion Store & Salon. It’s sure to be a time of fun and frolic down at the beach so bring it on…
Let’s take a look at how this contest will work:
RULES AND GUIDELINES:
Step 1:
We want to see what your costumes will look like on a Yoville avatar so the first thing you will need to do is find an avatar to create the outfit for, this can be your own avatar or another avatar found on Yoville.com or in game. Then take a screenshot of that avatar. To take a Screenshot on a PC (Hold down CTRL, ALT, PRTSC) and on a MAC (Hold Down Command and SHIFT 3)
Step 2:
Then go to Paint or PhotoShop or any type of image editing program you have installed on your computer and Paste your Screen shot. From here please use the tools provided to edit your image and design your outfit. You may have to crop to remove any unnecessary parts of your screen shot so you only have the avatar to work with. Also rememeber to include all the parts of your design(accessories, makeup, handhelds) on your display avatar. Don’t be afraid to use color or get creative! Make sure to save along the way!!
Step 3:
Next you are going to have to upload your image to an Image hosting site like Tinypic or Photobucket. If you do not already have an account you will need to create one. Once that you have uploaded your picture to your account your image will be given links and codes for the image. Make sure to Copy the IMG Code provided for your image.

Why YouTube videos are shared everywhere? I think one reason is that these are trouble-free to take embed script and paste that code anywhere you would like.
When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thank you!
