PLEASE read the contest's conditions carefully! It would be such a pity if any more people spent time on an entry just to have it denied because they did not read the first post carefully! So far I had one half-body submission and two submissions where the character was only shown from the side (Why, people? WHY? You can't see the character's design if you only show half of it!), so please - there aren't many conditions - make sure you pay attention to the few ones.

This is a contest where the task is to design a character. In order to do so, you must present your character in a way where all details are visible as good as possible. You aren't supposed to come up with an awesome drawing with some kind of unique pose. Obviously you must show all of the character. If you just make a half-body drawing, we only see half of the design. If we have to make up what the rest of the character looks like on our own, then you haven't really submitted a character's design, you just submitted half of it.
The same goes for characters not facing forward. This is a character shown from the front:

It doesn't mean that you should not submit a character drawn from the back (though a good character design might also include additional back or even side views. But that was no requirement for this contest), but it means all of the body of the character has to face forward. We want to see the FRONT of the character, all of it. Your character should not face to the side, it should not look to the side, it should not have its body twisted in the middle so only part of it is facing forward, but all of it is supposed to face forward, so we can see all of the front.

I am so sorry for those of you who have submitted entries that did not meet this requirements so far. I seem to suck at explaining, though somehow I had assumed that people would understand that you need to show the full front of a character for a character design contest and it never crossed my mind that people would even try to submit entries that showed the character in any way where the front wasn't fully visible. Of course you can add fancy poses, backviews, side views, headshots and all that stuff to your submission. That's even better. But there must be at least ONE full front view included!

one question, are we allowed to sign it or should it stay anon?
