Nominations will run until page 460, unless they're already over by page 455. Voting will run from 460/55 until page 490. Highest score when I close the poll will be the next OP.)

What is CYOE?
Well, it means Creating Your Own Everything, and it is a concept begun by Fashiontopia on this site, way back in 2010. Since then we've come a long way: we've had trials, we've had tribulations, and we've even had bans. But that should all be behind us now: six months of cold-turkey from the pixel-arting game. It civilises foo's, and if it doesn't then they're not welcome.
What do we do?
It's simple. We
Do you have rules?
Of course we do! Well, we do now. They are pretty much as follows:
- Accept criticism graciously. Even if they say 'Jesus this is shit never come here again, faggot' then tip your hat to them and do not decide to insult them back. If it is constructive (i.e. it does not merely point out flaws, but recommends ways to improve), then don't even think about getting angry, bud'.
- ALWAYS give credit. I don't care how long you've been here, or how new you are. If it's WiP then it's not necessary, but if you've finished the design then make sure people know who's work you've used. If Fash's templates are used then credit him, if a tank from JG has been recoloured, then credit the person who made that.
- Be constructive in your criticism.
- Don't be an arrogant cnut.
- Have fun!

What are the 'templates'? Well, they are things we've made to get you started here. Most were made by Fashiontopia, credit to him for this, or were from JuniorGeneral itself. Others were by Ba'al, or by other users. I will try to credit them correctly, but please inform me if you made them and I will correct it.
A Template is one of two things: 'Build your own' which is rather like a barbie doll, in that there are parts you can place on a template to make new uniforms etc. Or a Template, which is like a pencil drawing crying out for drawing on.
