Best of 2022 - Post before the end of the year 0

[Brian Peck]

At the beginning of every New Year, CAF celebrate the best collected works of the prior year, with the annual Best Of competition.

Even though the submission process doesn't begin until January 7th 2023 (or sooner), your artwork must be submitted to your CAF Gallery in 2022 in order to participate in the Best of 2022. It can be in any Gallery Room in your CAF Gallery, but it must be added to CAF before midnight EST this Saturday, December 31st. So get your art posted before New Years!

 

When the Best Of 2022 selections start you will choose from any of the pieces in your CAF that you uploaded during 2022. Best Of selections will start January 7th at the latest, where you will choose your entries from existing artwork in your CAF Gallery. On that day we'll announce instructions for how to do this.

I wondered the same thing. I am not a premium member so I don't think it applied to me anyways, but the description of how to enter your pieces was not terribly specific. Thanks to @alxjhnsnfor the tip!

I’m not a premium either. Maybe you have to be ?

All you can do at the moment is just post to CAF, you can't enter your pieces yet anyway. I imagine when the submission period starts details about how to actually enter would be given. If those details were given now people would probably be posting "How come I can't see the submission button on my pieces???"

Also I don't think it's limited to premium members

After the first of the year I will post more information on how to enter the Best of 2022.

Right now everyone who wants tp enter must have posted their selections in any of their comicartfans galleries. As stated above:

"Best Of selections will start January 7th at the latest, where you will choose your entries from existing artwork in your CAF Gallery. On that day we'll announce instructions for how to do this."

Message me with any questions.
