NOOOOO you can still enter even if you are straight as a pin!!! We can all celebrate diversity whether or not we are LGBTQ+ ourselves! It's how you become a good ally!
Throw some poly in there too, for good measure!Edited by StabbityDoom on June 23, 2021 9:15PM3 -

Hey, she didn't say anything about anyone's personal choices, just that you are comfortable supporting lots of varieties of love!
I personally am struggling to figure out what I want to do (story of my life, I would say 90% of the contests I decide to enter, I don't actually finish the build in time - but it's still fun).Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis1 -

✭✭✭I thought last month was "Pride"?
It was, but as I had a family conflict and it was started later in the month, I tried to give people more time.
Besides, we can be proud with our LGBTQ+ community all the time!!)))

✭✭✭Okay as for pride... EVERYONE is getting a prize and I'm going to tell you how great your art was, individually, and why
But with the help of @tanubanue and @Sindradottir I have whittled it down to the two house (or crown) winners
Congratulations to @ivelbob and @malderyn ! and I have to say, folks, the skill and heart from all of you made this so, soo hard to choose. I am so thankful we could celebrate pride together and hope you all know how much I appreciate you entering and sharing your art with us.)))
most important was heart, and you all showed so much!
thank you so much everyone!1 -

✭✭✭@auldepharte made a pride garden - but not just an ordinary Pride Garden. This glowing, living art has a perfect gradient from one side to the other, surrounding you in joyful color.
@autumnwolf3 Blew my mind with their incredible memorial garden. You are to take a lantern, walk to the center of the altar, light it with the candle and send the message to the heavens in memory of those who have been taken from us - as too many of our LGBTQ+ friends have.
@azeliastone wedded meaning and humor in her creation of The Rainbow Connection. It has left me thinking about the deeper meaning, and about acceptance, and appreciating her skill at both humor and beauty.
My power is going to go out in this storm so to not lose this, I'm going to post this and then do more in another post right after...

✭✭✭@ivelbob was one of our two winners, and he did not disappoint with his hilarious (and serious, and meaningful, and pretty, and cool) build. He recreated a Pride Parade!
I can't show it all, as there were many aspects (including floats, an AIDS memorial garden and a dance party) but here are the motorcycle parade riders (inclusive there too for differently abled peeps!) and Malacath being the MOST FABULOUS he has ever been.
@judahbee made a spectacular gradient Pride Garden surrounding their entire Domus Phrasticus. It was like running through a rainbow itself... only more beautiful. The movement, the textures, the lights... It was excellent. It's impossible to really show you the experience, so I suggest you visit it, it's on NA!

✭✭✭@kelektra 's Pride Glow Garden was deceptive - at first it looks like a lovely glow garden only, but when you peer into it, you realize it's so much more! Pets, coral, trophies, lights, furnishings, anything goes to turn it into a garden! I think that the variety and diversity is what makes it special - just like our community.
@madamestrange made a stunning, glorious, POWERFUL lit pride flag - she incorporated different materials of all kinds to create unity from diversity. And what she created was magical.

StabbityDoom✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭@malderyn was our second winner, and it's really difficult to show you what he did without you seeing it yourself - so I suggest you visit. It was not just this incredible lighting, structure, and artwork. It was also the story itself, which was meaningful and represented why we need Pride in our society.
@Marunaiad made a stunning Dibella garden with a Lesbian Pride flag in the rear - as Dibella and Mara would both embrace love and romance of all kinds.
2 -
StabbityDoom✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭@nyght.raven made a garden with a story - a story that resonates with the community profoundly. This garden was created by those who weren't accepted - so that those like them could have a place of beauty and joy. And their memory lives on in this garden and it is cared for by those who came afterwards.
@sinister_biscuit made a lovely retirement home for a LGBTQ+ couple. I can't really do it justice here. But aside from the rainbow lighting, it was ALSO cobbled gorgeously throughout!
@thebookofhours is a very new player who took the leap into entering my contest! I was super excited. They did a really impressive home, and I NEVER would have guessed they were new to it! It was a huge Earthtear, so I can only showcase a bit!
