Gerry ; 100x100

Hi folks! Well, the hiatus was longer than I anticipated but I have had physical problems in the last few months that have kept me down for the most part. I seemed to have healed (at least for now!) so have been thinking of starting the contests again. Gerry has been a very busy boy in the past year and there are a lot of things coming up starting next month with Machine Gun Preacher. And have you seen the pictures of his learning to surf for his new movie? wow! Anyway.

If you still have interest in participating actively in the contests, please leave a comment.

Thanks!
Adina

Due to health problems the last few months, and other real life situations, I feel it is necessary to put gerrychallenge on temporary hiatus. I've mulled this over in my mind and really didn't want to do it, but feel it is best for now. I'm hoping to be able to start up fresh again in a few weeks when I can devote more time to the community.

The banners for the last challenge are way overdue...I am working on them and will hopefully have them ready soon. Thank you for your understanding and patience with me.

For those of you here in the U.S., I hope everyone will have a fun and safe 4th of July!

Extending challenge

2010-06-20T13:59:43Z

It has been requested that I extend the challenge for a while. Having had real life issues the past few months myself, I understand how those things can take up our fun time so I'm more than willing to do so.

Normally I would extend only a few days, but because this is such a busy time with people on vacation, etc, and the Fourth of July holiday coming up for many of us, I'm extending the challenge for a little over 2 weeks.

The new deadline for our Magazine and Publicity challenge is Wednesday, July 7, 10 p.m. EST. I hope this will help many of you and that you'll be able to join in and enter our challenge.

Challenge 108

2010-03-23T14:17:47Z

Information for Challenge 108 is under the cut. The deadline for entries is Saturday, April 10, midnight EST, but since I'm posting a little late I'll consider extra time if needed. I hope you'll join in!

Be sure to go see Gerry's new movie, How To Train Your Dragon, this Friday, March 26! It looks like it's going to be a really cute movie. It will be a while until Gerry has something new come out; he will start filming Shakespeare's Coriolanus with Ralph Fiennes in Serbia real soon.

Gerry has had a busy year so far with 2 award shows and 3 movie premieres. There are so many nice pictures of him all dressed up that I thought we'd use those for this challenge.

I have provided a few pictures for your use, but you are also free to use your own favorites if you like.

-- You may make up to 6 icons, all effects allowed including animation.
-- Icons must fit LJ standards of 100x100 pixels and no more than 40k file size.

2010-03-17T01:55:39Z

Because there was just one entrant in our Fun in the Sun challenge I am awarding a Mod's Choice for my favorite icon. I want to thank gerryismymuse for all her hard work and taking the time to enter. A banner for this, and for our last challenge, will be coming soon.

MOD'S CHOICE

I will be posting a new challenge within the next few days. I hope we have more participation for it - if turnout doesn't increase I am sadly thinking of the of closing the community due to lack of interest.

Reminder

Another reminder that entries are due this Saturday, March 13, 10 p.m. EST. We still have only 4 icons from one person so really need more! I'm hoping we won't need to extend again, so if you find you have a little bit of time in the next couple of days, please consider making an icon or two for this challenge. Please submit your entries HERE. Thanks!

Challenge extension

2010-03-04T22:25:02Z

Due to real life problems and forgetting to post reminders, *facepalm* I have decided to extend our challenge one more week. The new deadline will be Saturday, March 13, 10 p.m. EST.

We currently have 4 lovely entries by only one person (thank you!) - so really need more. Please consider submitting an icon or two for our Fun in the Sun challenge. You may submit your entries HERE. Thanks!

Challenge 107 - Fun in the Sun

2010-02-18T06:39:35Z

Again, I apologize for the extended delay in getting this challenge done. I hope you are all still with us and as many that are able will take part to give us a good start again.

Information for Challenge 107 is under the cut, the deadline for entries is Saturday, March 6, 10 p.m. EST.

I don't know about you but I've had enough of winter...the long, dreary, snowy days - I am so ready for spring to come and to see the flowers bloom again.

Gerry has been having fun lately playing in the sunshine, so I thought to warm us all up a bit, we'd have a challenge using a few pictures showing his very sexy self having fun while he's keeping nice and warm. Gerry needs this down time since he'll be starting his new movie Coriolanus with Ralph Fiennes next month. He has definitely been working out to get into shape for it. *thud*!!

I have provided a few pictures taken within the last couple of weeks, and also a few older ones. If you've seen others that you'd like to use feel free to do so.

-- You may make up to 6 icons, all effects allowed including animation.
-- Icons must fit LJ standards of 100x100 pixels and no more than 40k file size.

The long hiatus is finally over...

2010-02-04T01:36:48Z

I am really sorry that our holiday break has been so long, it was not intended. Since early January I have been laid up with an inflamed chest wall, which is pretty painful. I have spent most of my time in bed as I couldn't sit for very long at a time. It's better, but there are still bad days...hopefully it will be gone, or better, soon.

In the meantime, admiralsphantom (capathon) will be posting a new challenge real soon. I hope everyone is ready to get going again and join us for our new challenge! I'm looking forward to seeing you all enter again!

The banners for our last challenge will hopefully be done soon, again I apologize for the long wait.
