Fleet Uniform Contest

Fleet Uniform Contest

February 15 2013
Starting today, we will now begin to accept submissions for our Fleet Uniform Contest for the next two weeks, February 14th to February 28th.

To submit a Uniform to the Contest, please follow these steps:
  1. Finish designing your uniform submission
  2. Talk to a Tailor
  3. Select the Uniform slot
  4. Click Modify
  5. Click Save
  6. Exit Star Trek Online
  7. Find STO's Screenshot folder
  8. Find the Uniform Save file
  9. Email this file to stonewallfleet@gmail.com
Upon receiving your submission, it will be inspected for locked parts, compatibility and any other details. If there are any problems with your uniform submission, you will be replied to, listing those issues. You may fix those issues and resubmit your uniform.

Please don't post your Uniform on the website yet. We'll be holding all uniform submissions until the end of the two week period. The following weekend, we'll be hosting a Fashion Show to showcase all the uniform submissions! At this time, we'll debut our submissions and those who have submitted them can take to the run way to show off their creation.

After the Fashion Show, screenshots of the uniforms will be posted on the Forums and voting will begin on the Fleet Uniform. Each member will be allowed to vote for their favorite three submissions. The Uniform submission with the most votes will be the winner.

Finding your Screenshot Folder
This can sometimes be a difficult task and will depend on your instillation of Star Trek Online and vary by version of Windows. Here are some sample locations:

Windows XP:
C:\Program Files\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots
Windows Vista:
C:\Users\Public\Games\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots
Windows 7:
C:\Users\Public\Games\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots
C:\Program Files (x86)\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots

Uniform Save File
The Uniform Save file will a JPG image file that will appear to be a head shot of your character. This file contains all the necessary information for us to load an exact copy of your character and uniform for inspection.

They will generally be named Custom_Handle_Name_Headshotstyle_Default_[0-9].jpg where Handle is your @handle and Name is the name of the Character.

Rules
We have many creative and talented members in the Fleet and to keep the submission numbers under control, we're limiting Uniform Submissions to one per member.

We'll be maintaining the individual colors for Engineering, Tactical, and Science. Please include any additional coloring information in your email.

Good luck everyone!

Whoop, forgot about this despite it having been the message of the day for some time now. I'll be submitting my design tonight, after stopping for fabric at Mood, and accessorizing at the Macy's wall.

In, though I have to say it is a bit hard coming up with something unique and good looking just on the free parts...

So, when is the show? I believe I heard rumor that it's some time today. Looking at Fleet emails and Fleet Events in game, I don't see anything listed.

I don't know about the show. Nicholas was working with me on a project related to the show, but I didn't get everything I needed from his end, and when I let him know about it, I never heard back.

It hasn't been planned yet! Still working through all the design submissions. I'll be getting it up soon though.

All I know at this point is that I did my job for the fashion show last week (I'm not saying what it is!) and I haven't heard back since.
