Somewhere in your auction please say something like:

"This is my entry in the Nibblefest Art Contest, a themed art contest beginning on the 20th of each month. Please be sure to search for NFAC to see more great entries, each starting at just $0.99. Thanks!"

You may also include the clickable banner to link to the other NFAC auctions. This is completely optional. Follow this link for instructions on how to do that: https://nibblefest.blogspot.com/2020/10/clickable-banner-link.html

The word NFAC must be included in the title for search purposes.

You may enter up to three artworks.

All listings are to comply with eBay regulations and completed in the usual way. If you sell for a low price, you must complete the deal. No shilling (e.g. no using fake ebay accounts, or soliciting people to fraudulently drive up bids)! Also, please do not make bidder ids private - this keeps things transparent and fair.

The winner will be judged on the most individual bidders received during the auction (each bidder is counted once), the prize is an award graphic (see photos). Second and third place winners will also be announced and will receive a graphic. Only one award per person is given with the exception of The Big Chomp Award which goes to the entry that receives the highest dollar amount (regardless if they've won 1st, 2nd, or 3rd).

Entries not in compliance with the rules will be disqualified.

Please note: Participating in Nibblefest gives administrators permission to use your Nibblefest entry images in the award graphics (credit is given at the bottom of the graphic as ebay user ID), on our Nibblefest blog (credit is always given for each image), and in the clickable banner (the clickable banner always contains small images of the entries from the previous month's top 3 winners).
