Does this have to be an "IMVU" room or any room that is sold in the Catalog on IMVU? Also, can we edit the picture or does it need to stay in it's original form? I just want to make sure I have the specifics so I can get started
Thanks,
Leena |

Any room sold in the catalog is fine.
Editing the picture (photoshopping) is okay. _________________ Varsha - Sr. Manager Community Experience |

How do we post the picture? _________________ There comes a point in our life when you get tired of chasing everyone and trying to fix everything. But it's not you giving up...it's realizing that you don't need certain people, the bullshit, and the drama they bring. |

Photos taken through IMVU can be found in your IMVU gallery, simply choose the photo you wish to submit right click and click view image. This will open the image in your browser so you can copy the image's link. Next come back to this post and paste the image's link in between of the image tag bb code.
| Code: | | [img]Insert link here [/img] |
Before posting, ensure that the image is not exceeding the forum limit of 500X500 pixel, if it is you need to resize it and upload it through an image hosting site eg photobucket, imageshack and etc.
You can learn more here. |

You can use any room in the catalog, and you are allowed to edit the picture. |

YIPPY A IMVU CONTEST !!
My entry!!
Snap_10020951674edab708b77a6
--------------
************TIP to help with insanity of hosting your picture with IMVU **********
If you use ( *hiressnap ) to make the picture to your desktop just reduce it 25% hight/ width (that gives you 512/512) and then use properties to 500 / 500 ! This gives you very sharp picture !!!
--------------
Upload it into your IMVU picture gallery give it a name then use the download to desk top feature to get address
---------------
And if your like me and save to desktop dosnt work (to get address) and it opens paint just save the code
Snap_10020951674edab708b77a6 add that to
-->http://userimages.imvu.com/userdata/17/54/16/37/userpics/(snap address go's here).png<-- this is a forum link
add the img code -->[img]picture address above goes here[/img]<-- and its posted in the forums !!!
--------------
Not easy to win a IMVU contest!!!!  _________________ !! I miss chicka on the forums ! Shes Fun !

Can you submit picts of the same room from different angles for the contest ?
I have a large room so it is not easy to get the whole room in one shot |

You have to take the best angle shot I guess, the rule says only one submission per person. |
