Given the fact that we have so many artists in our community, we're launching a new weekly art contest called "Stoken Art" and invite everyone to participate, get their art featured in an official Skatehive post and earn sweet prizes at the same time.

About "Stoken Art" Contest

Each week, we publish a curation report called "Weekly Stoken" featuring content from the most active Skatehive shredders. We are using the same thumbnail over and over again for months and it's getting boring so we decided to spice things up and ask you, the community, to help us in designing each weeks "Weekly Stoken" curation report thumbnail from now on!

How to participate

We're not a big fan of rules so we just recommend you to follow the guidelines bellow in order to maximaze your chances of winning :

• Thumbnail must include the words "Weekly Stoken"
• Recommended dimensions : 1400 x 805 (minor adjustments are OK)
• Thumbnail file should be either PNG/JPG or GIF (GIF less than 2 MB size)
• Submit the design process and idea behind it in skatehive.app (optional)
• Upload your thumbnail or link your skatehive.app post at the comment section bellow

Feel free to experiment with different art styles. Illustrative, abstract, 3D art, even a freaking Meme... everything counts. Don't limit your imagination.

The only rule is...

Original Art ONLY: Claiming other people's art as yours is not cool. Plagiarists will be downvoted to oblivion 🔨

Deadline

We publish a new issue of the "Weekly Stoken" every Friday. Given the weekly timeframe, participants have 6 days to submit their entries, and Skatehive community curators @knowhow92 and @boeltermc have 1 day to decide which thumbnail gets featured in the next issue.
