School is over, summer is starting, and it’s hotter than ever!

In Case You Missed It:

• The /r/millionairemakersmeta discussion thread is up. If you have any comments or concerns, click here and ask your heart out!

• The previous winner, /u/livo23, is currently accepting donations! Hailing from overseas, the cash would go to a pet fund or a nice trip out. If you would like to help the cause, donate here!

• This looks different. What happened to all of the questions? Well, they’ve been relocated to our neighbor sub, /r/millionairemakersmeta. Additionally, we’re having a fan art contest, submissions are open right now, and will end on July 19 at 3:59 UTC (11:59 PM ET). For more information, please check the “MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENTS” section of the thread.

Major Announcements

New Format:

Avid readers may notice that the [Drawing Thread] is much more concise, because it is! Most of the content has been moved over to /r/millionairemakersmeta, and is the first thing you’ll see, stickied to the front page. This change gives two big benefits:

1) People who misunderstood a certain part of an answer can now ask for clarification without fear of wasting their entry comment or having said comment get lost in the void.

2) The [Drawing Thread] itself is less cluttered. Now, it is divided into five sections: “In Case You Missed It,” “Information,” “Major Announcements” (if any), “Timeline” (if fulfilled, will be performed in July), and “Conclusion.” Long gone are the days of looking through clutter, and taking its place are organized sections with information in each one, for both regulars and newcomers.

If you would like to see the FAQs, click here or head to /r/millionairemakersmeta (it should be the first post you see).

Fan Art Contest:

Our Reddit redesign presence is non-existent, other than the green color. That’s why we’re holding the subreddit’s first Fan Art Contest! There will be one winner. Submissions start today, and will end on July 19 at 3:59 UTC (11:59 PM ET). Voting will officially begin July 19 at 23:00 UTC (although the thread may be posted earlier), and the highest upvoted post will be the banner

The rules are as follows:

1) The recommended file size is 4000x128 pixels, but can be adjusted.

2) The banner MUST BE related to /r/millionairemakers in order to qualify for the contest.

3) The banner must be submitted to /r/millionairemakersmeta with [Contest] in the title. Failure to do so may result in your submission not showing up in the search results and, as a result, the voting phase.

4) No low quality drawings or Microsoft Paint submissions.

5) Watermarks and username inclusions are acceptable, but do not make it too blatant. Your art will be presented as it was submitted during Reddit voting.

6) During voting, your art will be presented with your username, the link to the submission, and a direct link to the art itself. Additionally, you can choose to add a description by posting in the comments. The expectation is that it is around 300 characters, meaning if it is too long, the mods have the liberty to shorten it.

7) Voting will be done in a separate thread through Contest Mode and locked, meaning that votes will be hidden from the public to hinder vote brigading. Additionally, the thread will be locked so as only entries are present in the comments. Voting will end following a week from July’s Drawing, July 26 at 23:00 UTC (7 PM ET).

All rules are subject to change as time goes on, and will be made definite when voting begins.

If possible, I would like feedback on the event and rules, and would love to hear it in the /r/millionairemakersmeta [Discussion Thread].

Things to Come:

By the way, I’ve been talking with some people on how to change the way we retrieve comments. There may be an experimental thread that utilizes one of the newer methods, as soon as July. Stay tuned!

Conclusion

Remember, this is about generosity, making history, and coming together to make someone's life better. It takes three minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a couple bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few pennies. Every cent counts.

If a lone $1 can get you a mint, imagine the possibilities with $1,000,000. You can go to a theme park, buy an 8K TV, or purchase an Apple Pro Stand!

A million dollars can help make someone’s summer. Spread the word: have your friends and family comment, post the link to your friendly-neighborhood social media network, and share it to anyone interested.

Let's tan a millionaire!

It’s the time of change.

Summer’s fun has just begun.

Goodbye, dear spring time.
