The Concept
Decorate a hideout based on a clear theme. A theme could be anything from, "A Royal Palace", "Justice and Glory" or "Labyrinth". Anything you can think of! The key is to clearly demonstrate your chosen theme through by using hideout decorations in a clever or interesting fashion.

For some ideas, here are some previous hideout of the week episodes that showcase hideouts with a clear theme:
The Exotic Wraeclastian Hotel, King Arthur and the Exiles of the Round Table, The Scarlet Corsair, and Sinking Out Loud.

Submitting your Entries
  • Take screenshots of your hideout
  • Upload them to an image hosting site like imgur.com
  • Post them to the official competition thread in the hideouts subforum using the IMG tags..
  • Specify your theme and which league your hideout was created in.
  • Feel free to write a brief explanation about any clever decorating tricks you've used and how your decorations display your theme.

Guidelines
  • Post up to eight screenshots.
  • It's preferred that your screenshots are no more than 665 pixels wide to fit cleanly into the post. However, you're welcome to post links to larger versions of your images.
  • No videos. (Sorry!)
  • Must be your own hideout.
  • Submit your hideout from the account that the hideout is on. Please leave the hideout intact until the judging is complete, so that we can check it.
  • Hideouts that have previously been featured in Hideout of the Week are not eligible for entry, but feel free to share them anyway!
  • You're welcome to enter multiple hideouts into the competition by either creating them in different leagues, or using alternate accounts.
  • Basic editing of your screenshots (cropping/colour enhancing etc) is allowed but please don't photoshop them to contain content that they do not.
  • "Crappy hideout" is not a theme. (I'm looking at you, people-who-dress-up-as-"laundry"-at-halloween! :P)

Good luck to everyone who is keen to participate! We're looking forward to seeing your creations.
sounds like fun
