Get set...

It's my birthday, so I guess it's time to get this party started.

Registration for NaMoPaiMo 2024 is now open.

Before you click that link, please know you will be required to upload a photo of your unpainted model to the registration form. 

Of course, we'd love for you to be in the picture as well.

After all, what's a party without a photo of the participants?

However, we realize some people really, really, really do not like sharing photos of themselves, so a picture of just the model is fine, too.

One thing I do ask is that you crop your photos. All this negative space looks terrible in a collage.

Please take a moment and crop it out. This saves me so much time. I would consider it the absolute best birthday present if everyone could just do this one little thing.

Also, no collages! We have enough collages already! One cropped photo is all we need.

Remember, registration is a commitment! Once you sign up, there's no going back and changing your entry. If you are even the slightest bit unsure about your choice, please wait. Registration will be open until midnight on January 31. There's no hurry!

Finally, before you go, please take a moment to review the rules. There aren't many, and the event will run so much more smoothly if we're all on the same page.

I think that's it. If you have any problems with the website or any questions at all, please let me know. I am committed to making this the best and most productive NaMoPaiMo so far!
