sign ups are still open, so sign up here!
Round 40 Rules:
• Icons must be made originally for this challenge, no prior work may be submitted. If it is found that you do submit previous work, you will be disqualified from the next challenge.
• All work must be your own, not someone else's.
• Make sure all images are PG-13 rated. Meaning no nudity, etc. Swear words are fine
• Icons must fit the livejournal standard, under 40 kb, 100x100px and in either .png, .gif, or .jpg file format.
-NO ANIMATED ICONS ARE ALLOWED!
• When posting the finished 20 please leave 3 icon examples, not a banner, and a link to the icon post/or lj-cut to your journal.
• Post the completed icons at once.
• The icon post must be unlocked for two reasons. 1. I need to be able to see your entries to post voting and 2. so people don't have to join to view your icons. (If they do join, it's a perk for you)
• DO NOT SUBMIT YOUR ICONS TO THIS POST.
• ALL entries are moderated, which means that I have to accept the entry before it's made visible to the public.
• Please use the provided table to post your icons for convenience. (of course, you can change the colors of the table)
• DO NOT ADD TAGS TO YOUR ENTRIES. A MOD WILL DO THAT.
• DO add a subject. FORMAT AS: Round # - your celeb.
• Completed 20 are due September 20th at 8 PM EASTERN TIME!.
