Frameless Flickr Frame Competition

Hello citizens. The release of the Frameless Flickr Frames has seen some wonderful image displays popping up in-world. These frames allow you to unleash your creativity when decorating your space.

A week or so ago we launched a competition to find some of the best-looking Flickr Frames.

Vincent and Ricky, the talented pair who created the frames, are judging the competition.  They're excited to see how you use the frames, and to see your creative ideas.  They've been considering making a rug widget, but they want to ensure there's enthusiasm for the frames before they go ahead.  

As you can see from the competition entry thread, there's been some great entries so far.  Submit your creative effort today and you could win Gold!  And remember, you can enter more than once, so you've got lots of chances to win.

Getting the Dimensions Right

In order to make the Frameless Flickr Frames display your images at their absolute best, you need to use a 3-to-4, or a 4-to-3 aspect ratio. For those who want exact dimensions: try 640 x 480. I know there are a few of you who will really appreciate this information, just as I did. Before I was made aware off the correct dimensions, the pictures I was displaying were stretched beyond all recognition and looked rather hilarious! So before you upload your desired image into the frame, check the dimensions are correct.

Take a look at these great entries!

Here's a few of the great entries people have submitted so far. Please note that these are not necessarily the winners - the competition is not over yet! I've included them to show you what people are creating, and to provide you with a bit of inspiration. As you can see, you can really have a lot of fun with these. They really open up so many more possibilities for decorating your space.

Ivana Zoloft - I Love Marilyn!

Ivana has created a really cool look in her urban loft space with the addition of this "I Love Marilyn" Frameless Flickr Frame. Doesn't it look great with her Zebra sofa! The shape she's chosen is just one of the 28 great options available!

Belle Morissa - Traps a Scammer!

Belle's had a fantasy about how to deal with scammers in SmallWorlds - gosh it's quite a scary image don't you think? It certainly gave me a start when I saw it for the first time!

It's a really effective use of this shape!

Tara Avatar - King Kong comes for a visit!

Tara's got someone very interesting - and very large -  coming for a visit.

I'm not sure he's going to fit easily in her space however! I think perhaps she's asking for help finding a chair big enough!

Georgia Peaches - A Bath with a View!

Georgia's given herself the most gorgeous view out her bathroom window!

Anyone having a bath with that view is bound to feel oh-so-relaxed. I think her pet looks like he wants to jump in too!

Tiwa Jasminum - All the better to see you with!

Tiwa and her friend Bird are looking anything but relaxed - these eyes would be enough to make anyone feel observed!

This is a great use of two identical frames - with double the impact!

Lionfashion Lollypop - Beautiful Fish!

Lionfashion had the idea of adding an aquarium to her space - or perhaps she lives underground and this is in fact a window looking directly into the ocean!

Whichever it is, it looks really effective!

Liam Llyd - Agent Liam

Agent Liam's looking the part here; he might be more a 003.5 than a 007 but I think he's looking really rather dashing in this image!

Perhaps you can come up with a picture of your avatar playing out a fantasy role of your choosing? The options are endless!

Enter your Frameless Flickr Frame creation today!

What you see here is but a small selection of the great entries you can browse through on the official competition entry thread - take a look for yourself.
