GAETA CONTEST #2 - ICON STILLNESS CONTEST
Welcome to gaeta_squee Challenge Number Two!
This one is an icon challenge, similiar to the ones at period_stills and the other "stillness" communties.
Here's how it works:
1. I post a single screencap underneath the cut. You make ONE Livejournal-sized (100px X 100px/40K maximum) icon out of it. It can be any kind of icon except animated. You can use any colors, any textures, any text ... anything. Go crazy! The whole point is to get as many different interpretations of one picture as possible.
2. Submit your icon in a comment to this entry. (You can find free image hosting at Image Shack, Photobucket and Livejournal itself.) Please place it in the white "comment" part, not as a personal avatar in the "blue" section. These replies will be screened to keep your creation a secret until the unveiling and you are not allowed to use or offer this icon for use until the contest is completed.
2. In two weeks, I will gather up the submitted icons and post them in another post, with a poll for the community to vote on them. There will be three winners, first, second and third place, according to number of votes received. Ugly banners will be given! Cheers will resound! Bragging rights will be YOURS!
4. You do *not* have to be a brilliant artist to enter. EVERYONE who can crop and resize the picture is welcome. Don't be scared, give it a shot. You never know. In fact, you don't even need a graphics program! You can use the El-jay Icon Maker, an online icon making site, which I've often used with good results.
5. HAVE FUN!!! This is entertainment during haitus time, so have a glass of vino or soda, play with the picture and enter. Good luck to all our artistes!
