2005-11-24T03:20:08Z

[.x] Include the anime series
[.x] Submit both the image & the URL
[.x] Icons should be submitted to this screened post by Wednesday, November the 30th at 9pm CST
[.x] It is not acceptable to use LiveJournal user pics as a form of image hosting.

MOD'S CHOICE
calen383

I felt that so many icons deserved a spot this week; I wish I could have chosen several! I did choose, however, the one that I believe held the most creativity and that resulted in something beautiful.

Everyone did a fantastic job! Congratulations to those who won, and to those who did not. :)

custom_banners will straight hook you up, man.
_{i really need to stop listening to those cheesy ghetto car commercials on the rap stations.} XD;

Week 59: Submit

2005-11-17T07:36:43Z

This week's theme is OTP (One True Pairing). Your icon must feature two characters; whether these characters are canon, fanon, or crack pairings is completely upto you. They do not have to be serious (can be funny!) but please have them remotely real. This means don't submit an icon with a character and an inanimate object in the background. If you are going to do that sort of crack pairing with a character and an inanimate object, at least submit an icon where the character appears to be professing his/her love for that object! Haha, have fun. XD;

Things to remember when submitting your icon:

[.x] Meet LJ standards 100x100 / 40K or less .jpg, .gif or .png only
[.x] No fanart unless it is your own (artbook images are okay, doujinshi is not)
[.x] Include the anime series
[.x] Submit both the image & the URL
[.x] Icons should be submitted to this screened post by Wednesday, November the 23rd at 9pm EST (with voting posted ASAP after)
[.x] It is not acceptable to use LiveJournal user pics as a form of image hosting.
[.x] This is a hush community. No text, text brushes, or anything that may be misinterpreted as text are allowed. Mods, as always, reserve the right to accept or deny your submission.

Good luck!

Week 57 Theme: Blue

2005-11-03T03:32:07Z

Your icon must be Blue in color. No sadness icons. Strictly coloration, my friends. A tiny bit of other color is acceptable but it has to be mostly BLUE. Not half-blue. Blue. Got it? Goodies. I will tell you if it's acceptable or not. ^___^

REMEMBER:
[x] Anime, manga and RPG icons are welcome.
[x] Meet LJ standards 100x100 / 40K or less .jpg, .gif or .png only
[x] No fanart unless it is your own (artbook images are okay, doujinshi is not).

[x] Mods, as always, reserve the right to accept or deny your submission.

You have until Wednesday, November 9th at 9 PM CST to get your icons in.

Good Luck!

Voting will be posted soon.

EDIT: As long as the blue is apparent and the center of concentration it should be fine. If you do selective coloring I am fine with that. Clothing, facial features, etc, but I want the blue to be the most important thing and not something really small on the icon. ^_^
