I'd rather see more designs that can actually be implemented than pretty honorary mentions that can't even be bothered to fulfill the requrements.
    I mean you don't have to show both genders in your design. They state in the rules that if you don't show both genders, changes may be made to your design to fit the other gender.

    I was shaking with happiness when one of my friends messaged me during work to tell me that one of my designs made it to the top 52 casters!

    Here's mine:


    I was extremely moved by FFVI when I first played it, so I thought about Yoshitaka Amano's beautiful artwork when I came up with this design.

    I submitted two others that did not make it:



    Debonair Set of Casting. This one was my personal favorite! I was convinced that this was my strongest entry, haha.




    Celestial Set of Healing. I feel like I ran out of time for this one, so I'm not completely satisfied with it. I'm very happy to see so many fantastic healer designs in the finalists instead.

    Wow, that would look superb on anyone! You should submit something similar for the inevitable DPS contest in future as it would be great to have something like that in the game.

    First of all, this is what it says:
    - Design may feature any in-game race/gender combinations. However, the entry must be a gear design that can be used by any race/gender, therefore any entry specific to any one race/gender may be removed from the grand prize winner selection.

    Second, I wasn't even talking only about female only designs. See those other rules:
    - The gear must be for all of the following: head, body, hands, legs, and feet.
    Now look at this:

    while it's a nice design, it doesn't have hands or feet, and the skirt part being for legs isn't the first thing you think while looking at this. It's probably just head and body.

    - The design must show both the front and back of the gear.


    Last one only shows the back of the main body

    1-2 images: front design (required) and back design (required)
    The hands, feet and legs of the first entry you showcased might be on image 2.

    The second entry you pointed out might have it back on a second image. "Female only" entries might have the male version on a second image.

    The body back designs might be good enough in the 3rd and similar entries.

    I did do hands, feet and legs but SE decided not to show for some reason ; - ; the pic clearly says "Back". This is the Front.

    Huh?! Your front picture looks great. Why would they do that? :s

    I see now that most of my annoyance over the designs chosen was actually misdirected as the curators of the gallery are the ones with the biased tastes.

    Like I said a couple of posts before, SE most probably didn't post all the info for the entries, cuz I know that mine also had extra info on email that wasn't published. Since we could send 1 or 2 pics I bet some entries have only half of it posted on that list.

    true and we cant expect SE to post both pictures in a gallery just for us. it would have been easier for the viewers to just send one instead, since SE will not cut them togethe. as long as SE can see everything, theres not really a problem with it

    i mean, this is all i have to show as jpg and gif, but one picture and an email commentary is enough as long as it shows everything and explains the set
