      Think this one is done...C793D5A5-3EDF-4D01-84D3-4CBF6A8E097E.jpeg
      still having trouble with quality using the template though. I try and zoom in and it just goes straight to pixels...🤷🏻‍♀️

            @AustinShurtliff Has anyone else asked about the best way to use this template in Procreate on Ipad? Like @Asyas_illos I'm finding that when I download it and open it in Procreate, it comes out to 1200 px on a side. Alternatively, I can submit a square format image in the size and resolution you specify without that template.

              Here's my entry for the fairytale traveler's inn. I've had less time to participate in the forum this month, and I'm experimenting with a style that lets me work in watercolor and digitally together. What do you think? April_2021_Valerie_Light.jpg

                The Gentle Giant Inn - the final resting place of a careless giant has been turned into an inn by entrepreneuring mice.

                Like others I find the 1200x1200 pixels of the template to be quite restrictive. The same goes for the 500kb limit to be honest. If that is how its going to be, though, I guess you have to take that into consideration early on in the design. My image is too detailed for that size I think and had I realized this earlier I would probably have chosen another subject.

                  The Giant Pine Pub & Inn. I'm sure you'll find some kind of help for your goblin problem there!

                        @Valerie-Light It's sooooooo good! I especially love all the silhouettes in the windows and all the little hidden characters. You somehow managed to make it feel like it has a background, even without one. Amazing work!!!!

                              So glad I’m not the only one finding issues with the template!

                                  @Asyas_illos thanks so much!! Kinda went with an old cartoon vibe like Ed Edd and Eddy or something. : )

                                      Something a bit different than the classic Fairy Tale.

                                          Float on into the Float On Inn and spend a night among the clouds. Be advised, though, it's not recommended to try to walk out on your cabin's cloud.

                                          Good luck, everyone!
