It's hard to think up something for spriting that fits with a Halloween theme, and ultimately I'm stuck at several decisions.

1. Splice the morphs.
In a contest a year or so ago, I had a morph spriting contest, but it was very open and allowed people to splice from anywhere and do custom work. This contest would only allow people to splice using the morph character's mugs of FE7 (Ephidel (both), Sonia, Limstella, Kishuna, Denning ... excluding the endgame ones)

2. Splice the dark mages.
This contest would allow people to splice using the mugs of only playable characters who are of the shaman or druid class. (Ray, Sophia, Niime, Canas, Knoll ... and if there's popular demand also Nergal (all 4?), Bramimond, Lyon)

3. Splice the villains
This contest would allow people to splice a character using a few specific mugs of prominent villains from the GBA games. (Zephiel (FE6), Idoun, Nergal (all 4?), Darin, Vigarde, Lyon)

4. Monster Lab
Use battle sprites to splice your own terrifying/disgusting/cute/ whatever monster. Let your imagination go wild. I tried this last Halloween and nobody bothered.

Discuss suggestions/ alterations/ questions/ whathaveyou.

What? No zombie version of FE characters? D:

In addition, can you also place the links of the sprites too?

I wanna splice the dark mages. o3o Designing a mug with them should be fuuuun.

Why no Zombified character mugs: That would require advanced skill in spriting and would not yield a prosperous contestant accumulation.

Links to sprites: I am unclear what you mean. Depending on which theme I'll be doing, I will have an image of all the usable mugs for you to copy/paste into paint to save you the trouble of having to go look up each mug yourself. (Though for advice, I would suggest all spriters keep an image containing all the mugs that they can look over to pick and choose from when splicing or looking for inspiration in spriting) If you meant a link to where you can find the sprites, no, I will not. Everybody should know how to get to FEPlanet on their own.

I believe you do when from your last contest, you thought I "cropped" mine when in fact I didn't, even if I found them from FEPlanet. :I

A simple look at your mug can prove that it was cropped. They're pixels, they don't lie. I already explained this to you, too, so I'm not sure why I'm having to do so again.

Honestly, I'm baffled by your choices in collecting the mugs for the last contest, Isadora, I really am. If you notice, nobody else had the problem. It's true that you found your mugs on FEP, but for some reason you thought the best way to get the mugs was by using their profiles, AKA using this and painstakingly erasing everything around the mug, I would have to surmise. That is... ridiculous amount of work for an end product that doesn't even give you the entire mug to work with. You must think I am sadistic if you thought I would really be forcing people to do that to get their mugs. You couldn't have made the task of getting mugs any more difficult when it should have been the easiest thing.

One link below portraits in the spriting archive of FEP is sheets. This has the character sheets with the FULL mug and frames that you can choose from. However, you don't even need that. A simple couple second google image search would have given you the mugs you needed. Even just going to the character introduction in Serenes forest would have given you what you needed.

I'm sorry if you think I'm being harsh, but It's not a hard concept.

And I have a tie.......

It would be nice to know who all voted and if they're actually interested in the spriting contest.
