You can find here more info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas

Just to make sure, there is a quite big difference between Sinterklaas & 'the real' Christmas.
you may enter things that aren't traditions that everyone would be familiar with, but you should link to some materials that explain them. if i don't know what it is and you don't provide a good explanation to me your chances of winning will be lower.

i'm going to say yes but remember that it must be the same size as all the other virtuadopts. so if it has 2 pokemon in it but it looks bad in 100x100 because both pokemon are too small you probably won't win.

Ellie, okay, thank you :3 if I decide to draw my idea, then it would be like one main Pokémon and a small one, like in the artworks of Pelliper and Mantine. So the size would not be that big of a problem, I think.

posted by another user you mean? i guess it would depend on how similar they are. if it looks almost exactly the same then you can't do it because you can't steal other people's ideas. maybe you should pm me your picture and let me decide.

The contest sounds really great and I'd like to enter, but I'm not really happy with this part of the rules:
Because of this, by entering you are agreeing to let Virtuadopt use your entry for as long as we want to, and no one else can ever use it on any other website.
I understand that I have to give VA the right to use it, but why can't I use it for other sites (like deviantart) aswell? Or are you just talking about other adoption-sites?
I just don't like the idea of putting a lot of work and thought into a new creature and (hopefully) creating something I really like... and then never being allowed to use it again in any form D:

Cyrrior, That's an interesting question. I'd like to know it, too if we are at least allowed to show our work on sites like deviantart (or in the drawing sections of other forums)?

UkeSora is also showing her VA creations on deviantart and I think that should be possible for us, too?
I don't see a problem in doing this because you don't give the rights for the art away, you are only showing it so that you can get feedback.

ah, just read that it has to be christmas-themed. What? I thought of a Halloween-VA right now and I thought it would be a good idea. But no I cannot work on that.

Why has it to be christmas-themed?

Liffy, yeah ._. the other thing is "not themed for any particular season"
I don't guess, Halloween is meant by "not themed for any particular season" >-<

Ginta, Oh, then I misinterpreted it. >_< Well, I would prefer also a Halloween theme 'cause I had so much ideas for it. ;u;''
