Christopher Columbus, Lewis and Clark, John Cabot: Be you conqueror or explorer, there is no greater feat than to lay claim to an undiscovered land. Each of your Settlers colonies had a founding father (or mother); the first person to step foot on your land and claim it as their own. We want to hear about them.
Your Settlers wish to build a memorial to the person who founded their colony! Unfortunately, they have no idea what he or she looked like, so they have asked you for guidance. Hurry! They wish to present your creation during the town's holiday gathering, so time is of the essence!
Rules:
• The picture does not have to be of you!
• Hand-drawn and Photoshop pictures will be accepted, but feel free to be creative! Play dress-up as your Founder and take a picture, sculpt your Founder out of clay, or bake Founder cookies!
• Face templates may be used as a base to create your Founder. Googling "Face Template" will bring up many available templates.
• To ensure original work, any photo submissions must be in photo format and include your forum nickname. Simply adding your nickname via PhotoShop will not suffice.
• The forum shrinks pictures. Please use a free picture service as imgur, Photobucket or ImageShack. For information on how to post a screenshot, please read Aquila's post here: How to post a screenshot.
