User:Boblers/Design Contest winners
Occasionally, Square Enix holds Design Contests, during which players can submit designs for items, with the Grand Prize winners getting their items added to the game - though runner-ups are occasionally also added. Design Contests have covered various topics, including gear, weapons, hairstyles, and home furnishings.
This page lists items that were added to the game through these contests, and who designed each.
