Make your work stand out!

Improve your profile page!

Potential clients will be looking at your entry, and a nice profile will help leading them to you (especially since the default layout has no contacts!) First state clearly who you are: from a simple curious, to a group of students looking for internship, to an established professional looking for clients. And then... simply express yourself!

Here are some interesting examples for inspiration:


transwitchesandinas.itch.io
the-tetraforce.itch.io
moonchimel.itch.io
lanuza-cristina-trad.itch.io

Improve your entry icon and design!

Once the jam starts, you will be able to download the files to be translated. The file format will be exactly the same as that of the last edition: a zip folder containing an html file, a css file and a set of images.

Translation-wise, you just need to work on the HTML file, either using a CAT tool (they will all import it directly) or notepad (translate anything that isn't between <>). But to stand out, you might want to tweak some things. See how different and interesting these entries are?


HTML is very easy to edit. All you need to do to redesign the page on the left as the one on the right is:
1) Edit <section class="hero is-fullheight has-background-饾槃饾棶饾椏饾椈饾椂饾椈饾棿"> as <section class="hero is-fullheight has-background-饾椆饾椂饾椈饾椄">
2) Replace the black-25.png image


Try to pull someone with design skills into your team or, at least, spend a little time to read the http://Bulma.io documentation and find non-commercial/public domain images for your illustrations and icons.

Another effective way to stand out was to find a theme, like Chinese Wuxia or Spanish comedy. It will be more difficult this edition, since we are dealing with serious topics like inclusivity and mental health, but you can definitely collaborate with specialists in those areas.
