Image features a wizard holding a wand up in the sky, heading toward various islands in the clouds.
High above floats a constellation of enchanted islands known as Cloudcamp. Each Skyland holds its own strange charm! Over the summer, you’ll soar between them while crafting tales, painting wonders, and unlocking magic in the mist.
And this time, you are the ones creating the tasks! From writing and art prompts to puzzles or something entirely unexpected, this self led camp invites you to build your own Skylands. You may post up to 10 original tasks before the deadline, earning beans and awards based on the worlds you dream into being. The more variety and creativity the better!

Questions might include:
• How late can I start participating?
You may join in at anytime, however everything is due by Sunday August 31st at 11:59pm (HOL time).
• Is AI acceptable to use for completing story writing or graphics?
In the case of writing assignments, this means you cannot submit text generated by an AI/ML tool and claim it as your own. Everything you submit must be written in your own words.
In the case of artwork, graphics that are purely AI/ML generated are not permitted. As many graphics on HOL rely on source material that you do not create yourself (such as stock images and elements), we can’t prevent you from using AI generated art as part of a graphics submission but you must have altered, added to or manipulated the source material in some way to create a graphic. This is exactly the same approach we would take with photographs that were not directly taken by you.
From the “Use of AI Tools at HOL” post on the main forum.
• How do I post Graphics?
A few popular Image Hosting sites are Postimages, Imgur, and Imgbb where you can upload your work, the locate a direct link toward sharing elsewhere. The “BBCode” to attach on The Roost forum submissions (which can be accomplished automatically for you by the click of a button from options at the top of your editing page) is [*img][*/img] with url in the middle (i.e. [*img]link[*/img]) — NOTE: You would remove the asterisks (*) in order for this code to be successful. They’re added here to display the example effectively. Images imbedded directly into posts must be kept within 600x600 pixels.
