I made a Pudge hook with two styles based around Chinese and European Dragons. Fun for everyone. The main style is for the event, the other is a bonus.

I never had a problem. You probably just need to check your export settings and the direction you rigged the item. The game accepts Y-Axis as up. The hook should be flat on the ground pointing along Z when you skin it to the weapon bone.
Sylei: Beautiful set! Looking at it really makes me want to do some stuff for Death Prophet.
Guys, SLIMEface and myself have been receiving some criticism over our use of the braided hair on our Kunkka set. Apparently this can cause some offence to some Chinese people and we unfortunately had no idea.
We are considering turning the hair into a simple ponytail so that we can avoid the problem, however the deadline was today. If I just edit my submission will this be ok and still acceptable? I was hoping there might be some people with experience of this in previous competitions.
We deleted our hat yesterday due to the braided ponytail and hat. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_(hairstyle)
but someone who is Chinese that I work with said they need to suck it up because its history.

Pretty sure Valve said in their blog post about the extension that if yours is a little late its not a deal breaker as they're releasing the event items in several waves. I'm probably submitting another item after midnight tonight and I'm not too worried about it.

We had the same problem with a braided hair for gyro that we did, aparently the braided hair belongs to the Qing Dynasty which the emperor forced all man to put the hair like this (to look like fools?) that's the conclusion I did.
And welp, we recieved so many downvotes and so many bad comments, about offending chinese pride etc that we deleted from workshop, to not offend the chinese people. Of course it was a single item so no worries. Your set is a more complicated situation. >.>
Steffen and I have just finished our Juggernaut set for Spring event! Many many thanks to him because of his magic that we are able to finish this set very quickly and in amazing quality.
I also put up a collection of all my CNY submissions!
Congratulations to everyone that got something in! I believe the deadline (Jan 20, 12:00am PST) for the Year of the Horse event has passed. Cheers all around.
Woah just checked amount of items added for spring event (I guess all items have spring 2014 tag right now) and there are 570 items in total... just WOW!! Gratz all!!

Holy crap. That's insane. Would love to see how many came from Polycount alone.

went down to 568. Remember editing the item will remove the tag!
Anyone know how strict Valve is with the deadline? I uploaded some WIP stuff last night that I'm going to be finishing today but I'm worried that its past due. Got sick over the weekend, ruined everything.
Here's hoping Valvetime is allowed to be applied to Workshop event submissions? XD
@Sleepykins For sure it will be better to upload is rather than left it buried on your hard drive. Go for it!!
It looks like if it was uploaded after midnight pacific time, then tags are not added.Not sure how they will treat edited items if the tag is removed from editing the submission
Thanks for the replies. Yeah I'm just gonna wrap up working on the stuff and upload the updates and hope for the best. Knowing Valve if they liked a submission enough they'd add it regardless of if it was late or not.
this is the Dragon Whisperer set for the Dragon Knight,
with focus on a dynamic form and a darn good looking in-game view.
please check out the set, your feedback is most welcome, and of course if you like it vote and share!
peace out! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=205552684

Do you know how fix it ? we were editting the item and now still not getting tagged after almost a day when godzy uploaded it ?

I dont think you need to worry about it. Valve was tagging items manually, so they should kind of know if it was tagged before or not. Also if you have a collection, they will see it in there, I guarantee they actually check through this type of stuff
Update on my progress with JovaGrof's concept for an Earthspirit Staff. Also an update on my Bloodeeker blades. I'm looking to make a set with the bloodseeker weapons. If anyone thinks they have a good idea incorporating them, i'm totally open for collaboration. Drop by my thread or send me a pm. thanks!

Just flip it until you get it right, come on, it's not that difficult.
As Frump said, a good hint is to use the axis you're exporting as a reference.
@Sylei:
Awesome stuff, that set looks stunning.
It's lacking a bit on sinister elements, but anyway, its shapes and colors are so damn elegant that's easily passable.

Those particles came out fantastic! Really awesome!
I managed to push in a couple of single items but sadly fell short on my Abaddon set and decided to take it slower.
Demon Snatcher.
I hope Valve adds the Spring tag to it!!!
Aw... that's not fair, I made a bamboo basher for Brewmaster, all I got was hate

Wow, that set is awesome.
Still really like this set, but if this was reworked for the Spring2014 event, I feel there is way too much blood on it for China event.

The portrait view looks really pretty, but the 125x125 marketing image's camera angle really doesn't do it justice!
