I just wanted to sign up for the contest, but I get an error (“something went wrong, please try again”). To be exact, there seems to be a problem with the generated json-string, the server response contains the following text:

“Message”:"Invalid object passed in, \u0027:\u0027 or \u0027}\u0027 expected.

Hmm that’s odd…. Do you get that error from this link as well:

http://www.overwolf.com/teamspeak-developers-contest-2014/

That’s exactly the link I used. And I got the problem: I used quotation marks. They were escaped in the JSON-String via \", but the error occured anyway. As soon as I removed the quotation marks, it worked.

Aaaaand another question:

As my app is going to be a Guild Wars 2 specific, I’d also like to theme it that way. Do we have permission to use game graphics for our overlay apps?

I think thats one of the purposes of the asset kit: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/media/asset-kit/

Awesome. Glad to see it worked for you.

And yea, of course you can make it Guild Wars 2 themed. It would prob be for the best that way too.
