Miscellaneous LIMS

neuilly — Wed, 19 Jul 2006 20:36:31 GMT

I had to throw out a bunch of votes because people didn't read the rules but we finally have a winner!!

neke! with this beautiful icon:

And second place goes to orangerful who also had a very nice run, including making this icon:

Congrats guys! I'm terribly sorry about falling apart at the end....but the competition is over now so you don't have to deal with my crazy life anymore.

Ok I am a jerk. I was waiting until the tie was broken to post results but it never happened and before I knew it I was across the ocean. There is still a tie so I cannot post a winner. If anyone is still here please vote...if not then this will just be considered a tie.

neuilly — Sun, 11 Jun 2006 03:00:45 GMT

Well I only got two of the entries in so I guess this is our last round!

Vote for the ONE icon you like the BEST. You will need to give a reason you think this one has the highest quality. Also please put "best one: #7" or something like that so I know that you've read the rules and are actually voting for the best one this time around. Thanks!

Please vote even if you did not participate this round! We really need more votes that we've been getting and I don't like pushing off the results. Thank you!

Vote for the ONE icon you like the LEAST. You will need to give a reason for why you don't like them but this should be based on the quality of the icon not your personal preference. So..

DO say something like: "The picture is too blurry and the colors don't compliment the picture"
DON'T say something like: "I don't like squiggly lines"

Just remember that it's about QUALITY NOT STYLE. There should be no "I" or "In my opinion" in your comments.

Also please include your vote for favorite icon. You do not have to include why but it would be nice since I'll, of course, pass on the messages.

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Voting will be closed in 24 hours. (around 10pm EST)

Sadly snarkybecky & watchasifall did not get their icon in on time and have been eliminated.

DO say something like: "The picture is too blurry and the colors don't compliment the picture"
DON'T say something like: "I don't like squiggly lines"

Well, I still didn't have enough votes but the one extra voter I got made it a three-way tie instead of a two-way and that's just too many to cut at once. So this time only one is cut:

with 6 votes by a2z_icons

Thank you for participating!

Also, there was a three-way tie for favorite so no peer's choice this round!
