ROUND 4 THEMES
Remember the sign-ups are gonna be open through the whole round.
RULES:» All icons must be made specifically for this community, each round you decide to participate in. No prior work can be submitted. The icons have to be all different, meaning that you can't make an icon for a claim, alter the coloring (for example) and then use that as another icon of the set.
» All work must be your own, not someone else's.
» All images must be PG RATED. Meaning no depiction of violence or either genders 'bits' visible. If you're unsure, just ask.
» They must fit the livejournal standard. (under 40kb, 100x100px and either .png, .gif or .jpg file format)
» You must link us to your icon journal giving 3 examples, not just banners link to your icon post. Or you can post them here under a cut, still giving 3 examples before it.
» Post the completed icons at once and link directly to the set.
» Icons however can be posted before voting goes up. Once you've signed up to enter the challenge you will be given moderated posting access which means a mod must approve the post before it can be viewed.
» Don't submit your icons to this post.
» ALL entries are moderated which means that we have to accept the entry before it's made visible to the public.
» Please, if you participate try to check out the other participants entries. (another reason why there's an unlocked rule.) You want people to check out yours and vice versa, it's fair game.
» You can use the provided table, but you can use your own as well. But keep the themes in the right order!
» When posting your icons to the community, please ensure you put Round 4: "your claim" as the subject.
»From this round on, a mod will add your tags. You don't need to do that.
» The sign-ups are open through the whole round!
» Deadline is September 27th, Midnight @ your timezone.
