Boutique Contest: Super Bowl 2021

The big game! The final match. The great thing! Whatever your name, the Super Bowl is today. It sounds weird to hold a Super Bowl during a pandemic, but hey, what do I know.

Your challenge this week: Add video game characters to soccer!

Football is good. It can be a bit boring at times, but with good snacks and a comfy chair, it’s a perfectly ok sport to play for a few hours. Do you do you know what would make it better? Video game characters! Let’s add a few to the mix.

-NOTE FROM ZACK’S LAWYERS: Kotaku / ZACK ZWIEZEN is not affiliated with, officially endorsed by or directly related to the National football league or the super bowl. This blog is just a fun little contest on the theme of a popular sporting event and it only uses the name Super Bowl as a form of parody, satire, and fair use.

It was weird. Anyway!

Next week I’ll pick a winner and some of my favorites!

Please note that the rules for submitting images have changed slightly. We are now looking for images that are 800 pixels wide!

How to Submit – Instructions

1. Create your store and save it to your desktop. Images should be at least 800 pixels wide.

2. Go to the bottom of this article

3. This brings up a comments window. Click on “Choose a file” if you are importing your “store” from your computer.

4. You can also upload the store to a free image hosting service. I suggest imgur. Then paste the URL of the image in the “Image URL” field. Note: This must be the URL of the image itself, not the page it is displayed on. This means the URL ends in .jpg, .gif, .png, whatever.

5. Add an editorial comment and hit submit and your image will load. If not, upload the image to imgur and paste the image url as a comment. I will watch.

6. Large size images may not download correctly, although we have seen animated .gifs larger than 5MB. If you are still having trouble downloading the image, try to keep its longest dimension ( horizontal or vertical) under 1000 pixels, or all under 2 MB
