@UBEROLL's post on Artfol

This artfight thing is still kinda new to me so I'm curious

Can you still participate even though it started like for example, a couple of weeks ago?
Can you also just enter the site without needing to join? (Like are you able to just look through people's art and other stuff without the need to actually participate?)

I'm gaining a bit of courage to join for next year so I just wanted to know (⁠•⁠ ⁠▽⁠ ⁠•⁠;⁠)

1. Yes, you can participate any time during the entire event! Some people are only able to draw on the weekends, for example, so they only make Artfight pieces on the weekends during the event!

2. No, you need to make an account on Artfight to view people’s accounts & to be able to register into the current event to participate. They are possibly considering adding the ability to make your account publicly viewable, but I think it’s kinda unlikely they’ll add it; accounts are “private” on there to prevent art theft from non-users.

Additionally, you have to actually register into the current event to participate; it will make your username colored to one of the current event’s themes. Otherwise, your account is put on “Spectator,” which leaves your username grey, no one can submit art they made of your characters, & you cannot submit art you made for other people either.

If you have any other questions about Artfight, feel free to ask!
My first year I joined mid July, like the 10th or 12th, it's totally valid! It can be a bit intimidating when everyone has done so many attacks already and you just joined, but it's totally possible and fun!
1. Of course you can, feel free to enter whenever you want. The main priority is to have fun after all.

2. You need to create an account, even if you decide to not participate this year by not joining a team. However you can still add your characters in case someone wants to draw them and then next year take revenge against them.
