The Funfest is an event that used to be held at Starmen.Net multiple times yearly. This year we return with the halloween funfest so get ready to discover your creepy side! (insert spooky SFX here) The Funfest is, basically, a chance for people to be creative and show off their abilities. Anyone may participate, and may submit as many items as they come up with. The idea is for you to do what you're best at and what you have fun doing. For example, artists may want to draw a cool picture or piece of art. People with decent writing skills may want to try their hand at a fanfic.
