I think it would be fun to do something that hasn't been done since MFGG's first anniversary: an official group photo! Back on the one year mark, the forum banner was changed to an image that contained a bunch of members. This is what it looked liked:

I think it would be fun if we did that for the 25th anniversary! Here's how it's going to work:
Everyone who wants to participate will submit artwork of themselves. It can be an OC, a self portrait, or whatever. However you want yourself to be represented as. Then, I will compile all the submissions into a single image with everyone on it. That's it! This isn't intended to be an elaborate artistic masterpiece or anything, rather it's intended to simply be a fun way to commemorate the occasion.
Some other things that you may want to consider:
Anyone who considers themselves to be a member of MFGG, past of present, may participate. This includes the forum, Discord, and the mainsite.
There are no style restrictions or guidelines, so you can basically do whatever. As long as it follows the site rules, of course. However, I am planning on making the final image around 1080 resolution, so you may want to keep that in mind.
If you don't want to create a brand new piece of art, you may re-use an older one. I'd rather someone submit an existing image than not participate because they feel like they don't have the time or energy to participate.
If you get their permission, you may submit artwork that someone else made of you.
Similarly, you may draw another member on their behalf, if you get their permission.
Each member can only appear once in the final photo. This does not affect how many submissions an artist may make.
I may resize your submission if it is too big or small. This is most likely to happen if your submission is a full HD resolution image.
There is a possibility that submissions may end up overlapping each other.
Although not necessary, I would appreciate it if submissions had a transparent background. If the background is messy or complex, I may unintentionally botch the background removal, so please keep that in mind.
You do not need to submit via the forums if you don't want to. The important thing is that I get your submission.
If anyone want to submit a logo or a background, feel free to do so. Otherwise, I can put something together.
The deadline will be July 31. Once the deadline has passed, then I will assemble the submissions together.
