Open it with your software of choice and make your design. Try to not go too far outside the silhouette and keep the white background.
Save the file as a png and post it on twitter under #8bitFiestaComp and include the name of your character. If you don't have twitter then post a link in the comments :)
Winner will be picked on Wednesday October 7th
Don't forget to share this in your groups so we get to see a lot of designs :) Have a great weekend!
