"Hey, I gotta say, I loved your tank level. Be sure to advertise it at lbpc.com for a chance at a Spotlight. " - Staff member fireblitz95. I spent a month on this level. 20 waves of in-your-face heavy metal action. The tank has many features including health, status, repairs, and reload. It also has a 3D cam for sniper mode. As you progress, the enemies get larger and more difficult. Hidden health and repair packs are scattered throughout the map. Individual parts of your tank can be destroyed, including the tread, turret, and cannon. You can either wait for a long repair or use a quick repair. http://lbp.me/v/gf6wfn

I know you're the "new guy" so I'm going to help you out here. Here is your level link http://lbp.me/v/gf6wfn Your job is to convince the reader to play your level. To sell it, if you will. In order to do that, you should pretty up the thread. Add pictures, level link(s), descriptions etc. At the very least, include a level link as most of us are too lazy to go searching the level. Here, check this out. First, this is your level, your creation, your baby. Your job is to convince people to play your level. Right? If you are proud enough of your level to post it in the Showcase area, then why oh why would you post it like this. This is only an example of some of the post I've seen: "Hey guys, I just finished my new level. I worked on it real hard, so please go play it." Wow, I don't know about you, but I sure want to play this level...NOT! Here's a simple check list of things to do, to make your thread stick out. LBP.me tool--did you use the tool? it's the blue box with a white bell, http://www.lbpcentral.com/images/lbpme.pngmore on this later EDIT: LBP.me tool is currently broken. STILL INCLUDE YOUR LEVEL LINK THOUGH brief synopsis on your level. What is the level about? What type of gameplay is it? What are some unique features of the level. This is where you can really sell it, get people excited for it. F4F -- did you make it a feedback for feedback thread? Did you want to? PICTURES-- did you post some pictures? more on this later The LBP.me tool:http://www.lbpcentral.com/images/lbpme.png Well since the LBP.me scraper is currently not working, you can still do a couple of things to spruce up your thread. Remember, you want as much eye candy as possible to entice that reader to go directly to LBP.me and queue you level. One thing you can do is put your level badge in like this: http://i8.lbp.me/img/bl/g121000-6b84ad11.png now to do this, just visit your level's LBP.me page and right click on the badge and select "copy Image URL" come back to your thread and wherever you want the badge to be, wrap image tags around that URL. Like so: badge url BAM! Badge in the thread. But wait. wouldn't it be cool if the badge was also the level link? Yes, yes it would. In order to pull off this amazing feature we just use a different set of tags. We use image link tags and they look like this: http://i8.lbp.me/img/bl/g121000-6b84ad11.png (http://lbp.me/v/zwp--b) which gives you this. Go on, click on it. http://i8.lbp.me/img/bl/g121000-6b84ad11.png (http://lbp.me/v/zwp--b) it might also be wise to put the link under it or tell people that the badge is the link, just to be on the safe side. Pictures Add some pictures! This is really simple to do. I would recommend taking your own pictures within your level. Open your popit, click on stickers and deco and scroll through to your pictures. on the pictures you want to upload. hit square on the picture and upload. NOTE This section is mainly for Firefox or Chrome users. If you're using Internet Explorer then go to Google and type in Mozilla Firefox or Chrome and download one of those browsers. Got to your LBP.me profile and Find your pic(s) click on it, then click it again so that it's the onlything in the window. Copy the URL. come to your thread and click the Insert picture tool http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/LBPC-Style/editor/insertimage.pnga box will pop up, click on the "from URL" tab paste the URL in the box Be sure to UNCHECK the box that says " Retrieve remote file and reference locally" Unchecking this box, makes the picture bigger click "OK" If for some reason the "insert picture tool" is not displayed, then just put your link in between image tags link and it will do the same thing F4F (Feedback for Feedback)--- Feedback for Feedback is a system that helps creators improve their skills by offering to trade feedback with others. This system is optional; you do not have to participate. Also, Feedback For Feedback works back-and-forth between both the Level Showcase and Object Showcase. You may specify a level under an object's F4F, and vice versa more specific information here FEEDBACK FOR FEEDBACK (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=7962-Feedback-For-Feedback) some other useful links General Level Showcase Guidelines (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=25952-General-Level-Showcase-Guidelines) How Does the Community Spotlight Actually Work? (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=34118-How-Does-the-Community-Spotlight-Actually-Work) How to Maximize Level Feedback (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=10692-How-to-Maximize-Level-Feedback) So, now that we have all this information, our level thread can go from boring to awesome. Maybe like this: Well I did it! It's finally done and even though this is a "Joke" level and is supposed to be bad, I'm quite proud of it. The idea of the contest was to make the worst level, but the catch was, that it couldn't be just a piece of DM and the scoreboard. It had to contain some sort of story and had to look like the creator was trying to submit a for real serious level. Well I think I pulled it off quite nicely. The story for this level is that aliens have invaded and stolen all of our biscuits and then it takes some humorous erratic twist along the way. You encounter aliens, army dudes, pirates and even do a little time travel along the way! All the spelling and grammar mistakes are on purpose and I hope you get a good laugh out of this. Feedback would be much appreciated and if you have ideas on how to make it better (worse) just let me know. Enjoy Aliens Stole Our Biscuits!! (for the worst level contest) http://i8.lbp.me/img/bl/g121000-6b84ad11.png (http://lbp.me/v/zwp--b) (badge is the link) The Pics http://i4.lbp.me/img/ft/10497d65290ab911730577658ee8dabdd09ee9f2.jpg http://i3.lbp.me/img/ft/dd39e3496c30589f01d427c3ffc8720698f39c4c.jpg http://i4.lbp.me/img/ft/be4b180603dded13a672e8d71b0986fbe079141f.jpg
