The big game! The final match. The super thing! Whatever you call it, the Super Bowl is today. It seems odd to hold a Super Bowl during a pandemic, but hey, what do I know?
Your challenge this week: Add some video game characters to football!
Soccer is good. It’s a little boring at times, but with some good snacks and a comfortable chair, it’s an okay sport to enjoy a few hours. Do you know what will make it better? Video characters! Let’s add some of it to the mixture.

It was weird. Anyway!
Next week I pick a winner and some of my favorites!
Note that the photo submission rules have changed only slightly. We are looking for images that are now 800 pixels wide!
How to submit – instructions
1. Create your store and save it on your desktop. Images must be at least 800 pixels wide.
2. Go to the bottom of this post
3. It brings up a comment window. Click “Select file” when uploading your store from your desktop
4. Alternatively, you can upload the store to a free image hosting service. I suggest imgur. Then paste the URL of the image into the field named “Image URL.” Note: this should be the URL of the image itself, not the page on which it is displayed. This means that the URL ends in .jpg, .gif, .png, whatever.
5. Add editorial comments and press submit, and your image will load. If this does not happen, upload the image to imgur and paste the image URL as a comment. I’ll look into it.
6. Large format images may not be uploaded properly, although we have seen some animated .gifs of more than 5 MB. If you are still having trouble uploading the image, try keeping the longest dimension (horizontal or vertical) below 1000 pixels, or the whole below 2 MB.
