Introduction
The DA Community Contest is a content-creation contest organised by the Dragon Age community. Prizes, which vary between contests, are generously donated by community members and our sponsors, the Bioware Store and Dragon Age Nexus. All work submitted to the contest will be freely available for all to use and modify in mods and can be viewed in the Community Contest Catalogue.
To disuss the Community Contest, with questions or suggestions as entrant or organiser, please join our Bioware Social Network Group.

Aims
- to produce small-scale (5-10 hour) contributions which can be shared as useful mod resources which can slot into a variety of mods.
- to encourage new modders to try new areas of dragon age modding.
- to encourage peer-assisted learning of the toolset and other modding.
- to provide constructive feedback on created content.
- to enrich and reward community spirit.
- to enhance the quality of contributions over time with future "improvement" contests.
Prize System
The prizes will vary from competition to competition, and groups may be used in future contests (see below). A points system is used so that winners may choose their prize(s) to suit their needs. For more information, please see the Prizes Page
Sharing Work
The following provision is made to ensure work can be shared for the benefit of all:
"by entering this competition you agree to share your work for other community members to benefit from. Where appropriate, source files should be shared. Others may use and modify your work in their Dragon Age mods, though are encouraged to give credit. As the entries are judged, local copies will be saved and if your work is taken down, you allow for it to be re-uploaded, crediting the work in your name".
The Community Contest Catalogue lists content by category and provides links to the content as well as contests related to each category. It is to be maintained by the Judges to ensure work is always available.
