pirate points

Results, updates, pimping...

juliet42 — Wed, 26 Oct 2005 20:16:37 GMT

Okay, due to lack of voters. Or maybe due to just extremely exceptional talent, all three places were won by charminglynne

1st)

2nd)

3rd)

Beautiful icons by the way)

Also because I've noticed everyone seems very busy now, and the holiday season is fast approaching, I've decided to put the community on temporary hiatus until January 8th, when hopefully it will be back bigger and better than ever. So keep an eye out for when we're back in full swing. Until then...shamelessly abusing mod privileges to pimp...

Dearest Pirate Points Members,
You've made me extremely happy and proud of this community, but unfortunately I just no longer have the time for it. I'm searching for a replacement moderator, so if you're interested please reply to this post. However, if a replacement is not found, I'll be deleting Pirate Points.
It's been awesome, but I literally don't have the time anymore.
Thanks for everything and I hope to see a few replies :)
-Paige

Ok, so we're squashing last week's challenge as we already have ZERO entries. I think with all the hoopla from Season 2, we'll start doing challenges from there.
So, now... THE NEW CHALLENGE.
Spoiler caps under the cut.

Logan
Mrs. Casablancas
Weevil/Veronica
Veronica/Duncan
You have until NEXT Friday, October 7th 2005 to get your entries in. One icon per cap, so that's up to four entries. I really wanna see some smashing new icons and lots of entries, because we haven't had an actual challenge here in weeks. So let's get some good ones in!

NEW CHALLENGE

Okay, so we had no entries over the hiatus for banners, so we'll do a banner challenge later. But for now, enjoy the new caps.
Cap 1
Cap 2
Cap 3
Cap 4

Up to 4 icons, 1 per cap. Entries due NEXT Friday, so that gives you over a week. I'd love to see a lot of entries! :)

paigegail — Tue, 20 Sep 2005 19:46:45 GMT

Hey Guys! I'm back from my hiatus and I will be officially "re-opening" if you will this challenge comm. The new challenge should be up sometime tonite or tomorrow and will run til tomorrow. But I'm back, so be expecting some hot shiny new challenges a.s.a.p!

paigegail — Wed, 31 Aug 2005 03:10:08 GMT

Hey Guys! I'm sorry for the lateness lately. But anyway, as I said in the Winners post, I will be moving this weekend to my new apartment in Edmonton. Anyway, I will not have internet access until the 9th. Therefore, this challenge shall run until then.
This week, we're doing something a little different. Make the new header for Pirate Points.
It must:
[x] be 630 x 660
[x] have Veronica on it. It may include other characters too, but Veronica must be on it.
[x] it must say Pirate Points and A Veronica Mars Icon Challenge

Other than that, freebies. Post your entries as a reply to this post.

paigegail — Wed, 31 Aug 2005 03:06:06 GMT

EXTREMELY sorry for the lateness, I've been busy packing and all and trying to figure out my apartment.
