Round 1: Rules and info
This post contains all the information you need to enter your icons.
DON'T FORGET: Try to comment on everyone's entries and leave them positive feedback!
Round 1 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 elses.
• Make sure all images are PG rated. Meaning no nudity, etc.
• Icons must fit the livejournal standard, under 40 kb, 100x100px and in either .png, .gif, or .jpg file format.
• 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 episode
• Completed 20 are due November 20.
List of participants is here
• 10 Themes - Sky, Plus One, Crop, Beautiful, Quote *, Stock Image**, Light, Joy, Colorless, Smile.
• 5 Category - Negative space***
• 5 Artist's Choice.
* For Quote, do NOT use any pictures from the show (textures and brushes are okay though) but what I'm looking for is just a quote from the episode, without a picture.
** For this please use this image. In case some of you guys can't access deviantart I've also uploaded it onto my Photo bucket here.
*** For negative space, the technique is to focus on the surrounding area of the icon, rather than on the person itself. You can find a really good tut on this here. And here's a few examples:
