  SPOILER!!: how-to create your Seektober thread

  Locate the https://www.snitchseeker.com/images/.../newthread.gif at the bottom of the forum page and give that a click. You will be brought to a new page with a blank text field where you can submit the first post of your thread (your Seektober 2021). Please make sure to include the following:
  

  • A title! This can be whatever you’d like it to be. We suggest including your username in the title so people know its yours when it pops up on the side bar
  • The Seektober 2021 prefix! There is a drop down menu beside the "Title" field. Make sure to highlight the Seektober 2021 option.
  • An introduction blurb! Let people know what kind of projects they can expect and which challenge/challenges you are aiming to complete. You can include the prompt list in your first post to cross off as you post if you would like
  • An index! To help keep your Seektober 2021 organized and easy for everyone to admire your work, we suggest maintaining a running index linking to your pieces.

    [url=link to your post]piece name/description[/url]

  
  Once you’re done, just hit that 'Submit New Thread' button. Your Seektober 2021 will then be submitted as a moderated thread (mods and admins, please remember to unapprove your threads!) pending approval from one of the Gladrags mods. Once it has been approved, you’re ready to go! Please keep in mind that the Gladrags mods are real people and it may take a day or two before your new thread is processed.
  
  
  
  If you are a member who already has a Portfolio in the Gladrags forum you may use that thread to showcase your work but we do highly encourage you to make a thread specific to this event and share what you create in your Portfolio thread at the conclusion of the event.
  
  Guidelines for Creators
  • Keep the SS Board Rules and the Gladrags rules in mind
  • Your image sizes can be bigger than the SS requirement and in the event that they are please make sure to keep these images under a photocut or a spoiler tag:

    [photocut=la dee da]images go here[/photocut]
    [spoiler=la dee da]images go here[/spoiler]

  • No plagiarizing. At all. Anyone found plagiarizing will have their Seektober 2021 thread removed and will receive a site warning/infraction. Just don’t do it.
  • We know that creativity waxes and wanes, tis part of the creative process. The provided prompt lists are a set of guidelines that you do NOT have to do in order. If it is day 2 and you are feeling particularly inspired by something on day 15, go for it. Feeling drained and end up missing a day or two (or more - it happens)? Also not a problem and you can do multiple prompts in one day as necessary or set aside a day or two to marathon through them all. The point of Seektober 2021 is to nurture your creativity and try to encourage good creative habits!
