Editor's note: originally, this portion of the post was in the contest's Journal entry itself. However, I encountered some data limits on the post at about the 36th entry. So instead of sacrificing the images, I decided to take this portion out instead.

Rules:
1. Each image must be one that YOU made.
2. Images must bear some resemblance to the one above.
Examples of how you can remake this image into something else, as made by myself and other people, can be found below (These are examples, NOT submissions to the contest):

By SynergicStar:


And last, but not least, by yours truly:

ALSO, when I say "Images must bear some resemblance to the one above.", I mean in terms of style, not necessarily Smol Nozomi itself. You can still make images based on Smol Nozomi, but images in the smol style (in general) are also allowed. Here are some examples of that, from TheFadedFrost:


3. No image can be submitted more than once. You can revise an image to address my feedback, but unless it's radically different, to the point of warranting its own entry, I'll count the revised version in with the original image.

To answer any lingering questions you might have about the contest, I'd suggest reading this.
It goes into greater detail about contest events (ex: is the contest ending at any point?), what you can submit to it (ex: can I submit work that isn't a digital image? Can I submit stuff that isn't based on Smol Nozomi, but is still in the Smol style?), and other useful information.

Here's a starting image, with many variations on the design, to help you quickly but skillfully edit your entry:

I had problems downloading this one, so here's a simplified version that worked for me (to use it, left-click on the image, then press 'Download'):

Triple-Q also made a reference sheet some time ago, which people could use to make images in this style (NOTE: Triple-Q had no official involvement in this contest; I'm just using his materials for reference, since he created the first-ever Smol Nozomi.)

With that being said, I look forward to seeing what you all make!
