Still feel like I'm going to cough up a lung, but if I don't get this started soon, there's going to be two of them waiting for me. Sorry for the delay, kittens, being sick and yet still having to work will do that to you. :p

As I mentioned at the beginning of the week, since things got so out of hand, there's some overlap (and I'm still mulling over the best way to synchromesh my schedule and our posting schedule here). In other words, the submission post for this week! And your theme is LEADERS. The leader of the band gets his heyday this week, since it's all ( Read more... )

stupid germs...anyway, this is your 'you still have a little less than twenty hours!' notice post to get you kittens to submit your GLASSES icons! Only seven have been submitted so far, and while that's not terrible, it's not terribly encouraging, either.

I kept meaning to get this up before now, but first it was sleep and then it was ... stuff. ANYWAY! It's here now, so ...something. Your challenge theme for this week is ... GLASSES. Sunglasses, a set of wine glasses, reading glasses, those big doofy oversized sunshades or the fake nose-and-glasses certain artists have been known to sport. Or ( Read more... )

Yes, late. Hormones. And out of order for how I usually deal with things this late, but someone was being pushy.

Hey, look, it's Friday already. You know what that means? This is your reminder to submit your LIGHT icons! We have a whole five right now. Sad, isn't it? And none of them are of our Artist of the Week, w-inds., which is almost sadder. So go forth and make me some more icons!

Also! If you haven't voted yet for week #63, please go do that ( Read more... )

The part that always takes the longest. Usual voting rules apply - 4 top icons plus Most Creative. Feel free to encourage others to vote, just don't go mentioning which icon(s) is/are yours.

Before someone asks, voting and last week's results will be posted this evening, barring unforseen circumstances.

This week your challenge theme is LIGHT. How you achieve that is entirely up to you. The play of light and shadow, the use of special lighting effects, the creative use of text. It could be something in the base or something you add ( Read more... )

A bit late for a mid-week reminder, so let's call it a last minute reminder! You still have an entire day left to submit your MOTION icons. We've only had three so far, which is kinda sad since all of you are allowed to submit as many as six.

Also! Remember that this week our featured artist is NIGHTMARE (or Sendai Komatsu, since they're ( Read more... )

This week's challenge is going to be a little tricky, since the theme is MOTION and yet this is a still comm. In other words, your challenge is to convey a sense of movement without resorting to animation. A captured dance move, picture-in-picture, whatever you think will meet the challenge ( Read more... )
