What if it isn’t summer where I live?
Hey mate, you are free to do winter instead, and will be able to enter the "Summertime Sweetheart" category just like the other summer pictures. We just want you to capture the essence of your current season!
I don't feel like taking summer-themed photos, can I just take normal photos of my merch?
Yes. It will not qualify for the "Summertime Sweetheart" category, but you still have a chance to win in the other categories!
Do I need a good camera and good photography skills?
Any camera will do. If the quality ends up not being so good, you won't be able to win the "Picture Perfect Idol" category, but you can still use your creativity and take your chance to win in the other categories!
What if I don't have a lot of merch?
You don’t need “a lot” to do well in this contest! Even one item is fine. It might not get you to win the "SUPER OSHI" category, but we care about quality over quantity, so get creative, and see what summer-themed things you can create, or show off your photography skills!
What if I don't have any merch, at all?
Get creative, create your own! Printed characters work too! (As long as you use official images, your own art, or fan-art with the artist's consent + credit)
Do I have to use official merch only, or fan-made are allowed?
Fan-made merch are allowed, but we insist that you should do your best to find the artist and link to their store. Of course, you are also allowed to use your own merch.
Can I re-use old photos?
Yes, but they need to match the theme and you need to take them yourself. We might ask you for proof or retakes if we can't say for sure that you took them, and we may eliminate you if we find out you didn't.
I am not able to give you my address, can I still participate and get a prize?
We will be able to give you a digital prize instead, so feel free to join.
Most BanG Dream! characters are not idols, and Pokémon are not idols, can I still enter with a BanG Dream! / Pokémon themed photo?
Yes! We are aware that not all of them are idols, but we use this word because it's an easy shortcut.
Do I need to specify which category I'm entering?
You don't need to specify which categories you're entering.
Can I photoshop or edit my photos to add decoration, stickers, etc.?
You may add decorations, stickers, or do any kind of post-processing if you'd like. However, for the "Summertime Sweetheart" category, we will only take into account summer-themed decorations that are in the actual photo.
Can I include people in the photo?
Yes, you can include whatever you want in the photo as long as it's aligned with the general rules for activities and it contains some merch of any kind.
