    Hairstyle contest instructions do not match template

    Please forgive this blatant misuse of the bug report forum, as it relates to the FFXIV website rather than game, but there is an error in the instructions for an official competition that is causing confusion among would-be entrants, and needs to be clarified or corrected ASAP.

    The rules for the competition state:
    Entry Specification
    • Entrants must create the image(s) using digital graphics software or by capturing a photo of the artwork using the template provided. (Required)
    • ...
    • 1-3 images: front design (required), side design (required), and back design (required). When providing additional information, if it does not fit in the template, please attach additional images.
    The first point instructs that submissions must use the provided template, while the third says that "front, side and back" images are required.

    However, the template does not provide these angles and instead provides three-quarter front and back angles.

    These two instructions are at odds with each other, effectively requiring every entrant to create additional non-template images just to ensure they comply with the basic requirements of the design brief.
