={ I don't know how to make anything. I only know how to recolor. ={ I'll be voting though. I like that fact that us "non creators" are still able to participate. Excellent idea!!

Sounds like a lot of fun, especially for creators suffering from 'simblock'!
Not interested in this particular challenge but i look forward to hearing what the next is! :D

Great idea!

I'm not going to join in the Challenge , the ancient times are not my favourites (let's not mention my grades in History, when I was in school )...

But I've created a beautiful trophy exclusively for the Challenge: it will be assigned to creators that submit an upload of exceptional quality!

I've finally started my Journal. Information only, no questions.

My latest activity: CEP 9.2.0! - AnyGameStarter 2.1.1 (UPD) - Scriptorium v.2.2f - Photo & Plaques hide with walls - Magazine Rack (UPD) - Animated Windows Hack (UPD) - Custom Instrument Hack (UPD) - Drivable Cars Without Nightlife (UPD) - Courtesy Lights (FIX) - Custom Fence-Arches - Painting-TV - Smarter Lights (UPD)


I *DON'T* accept requests, sorry.

After the challenge is over and the challenge area opened up to everyone, will the uploads submitted for the challenge also be available in the categories that they normally would have been in? Will someone's Greek amphitheater lot be in the lot section as well as the challenge section?

FennShysa - I believe it will be in the challenge area. Smart uploaders will give their uploads good tags, so that the search engine will happily find things for people. I also expect that the special topic items will get more attention in their own theme area than if they were scattered among the normal downloads.

Question! Can we use things already created by other people on MTS2 as long as we follow the same rules for regular use of someone else's creations? For example, say I want to create a lot and want to use windows that someone else has already uploaded on MTS2. Is this allowed? Thanks for your time.

sherlee_80, if you want to use custom content in your house you need to check the creator's policies - usually they will say 'yes with credit'. You can always PM them to ask for permission if their public policy is not clear or seems to say 'no'.

At the top of the page is the drop down menu "Create". Click on "Creator Guidelines" . All the information you need is included in the links on that page. Read all the general guidelines and then read the guidelines for the content you are planning on uploading.

I'm worried that my latest Salvation Army donation will result in homeless people looking like sluts from the 90s.

sherlee_80,
If you are making a lot, then yes of course you can use content from others - same rules as always apply to the site uploads. As long as there is permission it's fine to include it.

All the same rules apply to challenges as to normal uploads. Just to clarify.

What exactly is meant by ancient? Old Kingdom Eygyt or futher back? There is a great number of years/even centuries between Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, Ancient Eygpt, Ancient China and what was considered 'ancient' for Europe.

Is it considered ancient according to the country/world area or ancient bu certain dates?
