To avoid this mistake, it is advised that you check your vote before submitting it. If you repeat it again, I will disqualify you for cheating. Please also do not ask your friends to vote for you. It's cheating. Once I find out, you will be banned from this LIMS. It's not fair to the other participants.

→ Anyone may participate in voting. You don't have to be a member or a watcher or even a participant to vote. But it is highly recommended for participants to vote.

→ You are voting for ONE least favourite/lesser quality icons. And you are voting for ONE favourite/people's choice icons. The icon with the highest votes will win People's Choice and the icon with the second most votes will Runner-Up. When voting for icons to be eliminated, please vote according to quality and technique. Personal preferences will not be accepted. You will also be asked to give a reason why you do not feel that the icon is of lesser quality. When voting for favourite/people's choice icons, you do not need to give a reason but it is HIGHLY ENCOURAGED.

→ Here is an example vote:
LESSER QUALITY ICONS:
#8: The image quality is poor and the use of text has not been thought out properly.
#18: The texture use doesn't fit with the overall icon and looks like it was an after-thought.

FAVOURITE ICONS:
#5: The style and technique used is beautiful.
#7: The colours are absolutely stunning and well used.
