LINK: the avatar challenge – falling leaves edition

I’m doing another challenge, in which I was tagged by Info-Man. It’s created by Ruler of Twilight, who also hosts tons of cool challenges throughout the year. Thank you both for the fun times!

It can be a tag challenge or just participate. Whichever. If you will not be tagging, just ignore the tagging rules. One thing I want to mention, this challenge is on WP and Medium. Now for the rules:

• Use featured image
• Thank who tagged you (if tagged).
• Share the registration form (found here) and register if not already. (not optional)
• Tag Ruler the Twilight and link back to her post so she can see yours.
• Share the rules, theme, categories, factors and closing date.
• Share your profile picture (don’t forget to pick a category!)
• Tag (max of five) people (if you want)

Most importantly, have fun!!

This edition’s theme is…

Falling Leaves!!

Create a profile picture or avatar using the theme, Falling Leaves. Whether that means using an autumn background, in a leaf pile, or just a picture of you looking out the window at the leaves. 

The Categories You Can Choose from Are…

AI

Please try other means before using AI.

Layered

This includes Canva and like services. If your image was made by digital layering, it is in this category. 

Photography 

One of the two encouraged categories, this one is self-explanatory. 

Hand Drawn

This includes paintings, sketches (both colored and B&W), digital art (outside of AI and layered services), and physical layered images This is the second of the encouraged categories. 

What is NOT Allowed

Services such as Pixbay and Unsplash are not allowed. At least AI images carry some of you in it. While images off Pixbay and others may resonate with you, it is 100% someone else’s work.

When Will the Challenge End?

Submissions are accepted until Wednesday, October 28th, 2026.  

I love fall, best of all.

I’m not a good artist and can’t draw worth shit but I’ve got ideas…

I used photos, stickers, and clipped pictures from magazines. I added the fish cause I like fishing. I included a sweater cause I love sweater weather. I attached mushrooms cause they are tasty. IDK if this really counts as an avatar but it is what it is.

I tag anyone else who is interested in doing this challenge. I think it’s fun to think outside the box, make things to increase neuroplasticity, and combat stagnation.
