[Challenge 01] ♣ Round Six - Submit
Your theme this week is:
I WANT TO PLAY A GAME...
Totally not inspired by me watching the SAW movies last weekend. Yes, based on the traps from the SAW movie, you have to make an icon.
The traps you're all in will kill you if you don't fulfill the necessary conditions to get out. This means - no icon, you are out. You're no longer allowed to skip.
That said, pay careful attention to your instructions and the time limit. If you do not submit in the designated number of days, you will be penalized.
Find your trap!
TRAP #01 - REVERSE BEAR TRAP
Kim Jaejoong is caught in this trap. You have only TWO DAYS to make your icon. If you do not submit your icon before the comment "DAY TWO" [Wednesday night] is posted on the submission post, you will lose 1 point for every day it is late. Eg: If you submit your icon on Saturday, you would have lost 3 points.
Because of your relatively short time, your icon theme is simple. Your icon has to be predominantly red. Good luck, and godspeed.
TRAP #02 - THE ANGEL TRAP
Kangin is caught in this trap. You have FOUR DAYS to make your icon. If you do not submit your icon before the comment "DAY FOUR" [Friday night] is posted on the submission post, you will lose 1 point for every day it is late. Eg: If you submit your icon on Monday, you would have lost 3 points.
Your icon needs to be textless (symbols, single letters and tinytext are also not acceptable), and it needs to portray a the theme of angels, under a negative light - no angels of hope or anything of the sort.
TRAP #03 - THE SHOTGUN COLLAR
Kim Junsu is caught in this trap. You have SIX DAYS to make your icon. If you do not submit your icon before the comment "DAY SIX" [Sunday night] is posted on the submission post, you will lose 1 point for every day it is late. Eg: If you submit your icon on Wednesday, you would have lost 3 points.
Your icon needs to show ONLY the head of a character. Some of the neck and shoulders is acceptable, but nothing beyond that - it needs to be a typical "portrait" crop. The character has to be facing the viewer (3/4 is acceptable, profiles and back shots are not). The icon also must have some kind of text - any kind is fine, even tinytext, symbols and single letters.
TRAP #04 - THE MEAT GRINDER
Henry Lau is caught in this trap. You have EIGHT DAYS to make your icon. If you do not submit your icon before the comment "DAY EIGHT" [Tuesday night] is posted on the submission post, you will lose 1 point for every day it is late. Eg: If you submit your icon on Friday, you would have lost 3 points.
Your icon needs to have food in it somewhere. Other stuff is fine, though food needs to be the main focus.
TRAP #05 - FLAMMABLE JELLY
Park Yoochun is caught in this trap. You have TEN DAYS to make your icon. If you do not submit your icon before the comment "DAY TEN" [Thursday night] is posted on the submission post, you will lose 1 point for every day it is late. Eg: If you submit your icon on Sunday, you would have lost 3 points.
Your icon has to be themed Fire. Pretty simple?
TRAP #06 - THE NEEDLE PIT
Leeteuk is caught in this trap. Congratulations, this is the only trap that can't kill, so you do not have more limited time like the others and can submit by DAY TWELVE [Saturday night] without any penalty. Of course, if you don't submit at all, you'll be locked up in the needle pit forever, but... yeah.
Your icon needs to be non-100x100. This means the DIMENSIONS have to be something other than 100x100, negative space will not do. Otherwise, you're free to do as you wish.
-----
Depending on which trap your Avatar is in, you have ranging from four days to two weeks for this challenge, and submissions will close when the last icon has been submitted. Voting goes up shortly after.
All icons are to be submitted to this post in a comment before the deadline. All comments are screened.
-----
Please follow the submission guidelines:
- All icons must adhere to LJ standards: 100x100, under 40 KB, in .png, .gif or .jpg format.
- Only one icon per person is to be submitted.
- All icons must be submitted anonymously. This means that if your avatar is Kim Jaejoong, you cannot state, in your LJ or anywhere else, which icon Jaejoong made. If we find out that you have showcased/advertised an icon as your own publicly before the voting closes, you will automatically get disqualified from the competition!
- Icons are to be submitted before the closing time of the challenge round. If you are late, your icon will not be included in the voting post.
- Icons are to be the contestant's own work (usage of resources by other iconists are perfectly fine) and made for the challenge specifically. If the icon is recycled, it is not a valid submission.
- Icons have to be uploaded to a free image host such as Tinypic or Imageshack. Photobucket works too.
- Skips CANNOT BE USED.
