Join the Star Wars Costume Contest on DEV 🌌

#maythefourth #starwars #justforfun #announcements

Greetings, members of the Rebel Alliance.

Star Wars Day is coming up on Wednesday, May 4th and the DEV team figured there was no better time for you to use the force in a creative and fun way.

Your Mission: Assemble a Star Wars Costume & Win Prizes!

In honor of Star Wars Day, we invite you to use the next few days to assemble a Star Wars-themed costume and share a photo with us via the comments below.

Rules

Your submission (i.e. comment below) must include a picture of you or a consenting family member wearing a Star Wars-themed costume that does not violate our Code of Conduct.

The picture can be from previous years!

You must be willing to have us share your costume on social media so the world can celebrate with us! Leave your Twitter and Instagram handles in your comment if you'd like to be tagged.

Photos must be posted in this thread between now and Wednesday, May 4th @ 11:59 PM UTC.

Prizes

All participants who leave a comment in this thread will win a special Star Wars-themed DEV profile badge. We'll also randomly select a lucky person to win this awesome sweatshirt on the Forem Shop:

Post your snazziest Star Wars look below, have fun, and remember:

“Your focus determines your reality.” – Qui-Gon Jinn
