Welcome everyone, to the Oblivion contest. We got together with a couple of other Elder Scrolls websites - Elderscrolls.NET, Oblivion Source, Planet Elder Scrolls, TESSource and the Imperial Library - and decided to run a contest; Mostly to shorten the waiting time, but also because we think it'll be a lot of fun. The contest is about dressing up like someone from Tamriel: a person, a creature a monster - whatever you want. To spice things up, Bethesda and ourselves are donating some very cool prizes for the three best entries. So be sure to check it out, participate, and most of all: have fun! Borrowing a bit from Stargelman here: What is it about?Simple: dress up as a citizen or monster of Tamriel and take a photo of it! The choice of motive is entirely yours, as long as it fits into the general Elder Scrolls theme. How does it work?A panel of seven judges from the Elder Scrolls scene will pick the best entries which will win our great prizes, most of which have been graciously donated by Bethesda Softworks! Check out the prizes here. The only condition to enter the contest is that you send a "normal" picture of yourself without disguise so we can be sure it's really you. This picture will not be published. Additionally, if you wish to protect your privacy, you can choose to have your picture published without name. A link to the Prizes: PrizesWhat happens to my pictures?Your entry picture will be published on the official contest forum. Updates will be made every 1-2 days. Your verification photo without costume will be kept confidential. Who can enter?Really anyone! Except the judges and staff of the participating fan sites, of course. That is, they can enter, but they cannot win But ... I'm shy!Despair not. If you so wish, you can choose for your entry to be anonymous. This means your entry picture will be shown, but only with an entry number, not with your name alongside it. Please note: Your private (verification) photo will never be shown, no matter if you select the anonymous option or not. Only the judges will see it, and it will be deleted after the contest has finished. Ok, I'm ready! Where do I sign up?Easy! Just click Here and upload your pictures! ******* Now I assume that answers most of your questions, you can find a simple statement of the rules of the contest here: RulesShould you have any other questions, feel free to ask them in this thread.

That picture is sure for real, noone can cut and paste a background that perfectly.. Besides I suppose he is not the only attraction at that event, the people in the backround are oviously looking at something else, cooler than him for the moment. Go Minque! Good with some female entries, I wouldn't want to live in Tamriel if there were no females! Alright, I second the complain about the hobbit, the contest is about TES right, now how could a hobbit make their way to Tamriel? Please Alex or stargelman, explain  . Neix: I so look forward to see your entry! A crab-armour! It must have taken ages to make it..! I'm starting to think I have no chance in the contest  .. Need to think of somethin cool, original and tamrielic.. hmmm.. *goes away to figure something cunning out*

If so then you must be joking.. Have you tried looking at the picture full-size? Check his cloth over the sadle of the horse.. Or check the foot in the ehm "foot-holder" (  )... Or check his hand holding the leather straps leaning on the horsemane... If that picture is NOT uthentic, then we have found the master of falsification.. Of all times... Ever... Sorry to be this harsh, but I really don't see the falsification in that picture..
