ROUND #19 CLAIMS + INFO/THEMES
LATE INFO IS LATE, sorry! This took much longer than I anticipated O__o And I apologize for how much scrolling down you'll have to do - this is the only way the coding would fit on the page (psst.. that translates to I'm not skilled enough at html to fix it anymore than it is, so... tada. *g*)
Here are your two assigned celebs - one male, one female. You'll only icon ONE of them - you pick which :)
Sign-ups are still open!

THEMES/PROMPTS
1. Gender Color Swap: Let's crush some stereotypes! If you chose your male celebrity, then your icon must be filled with the colors typically associated as being girly - pinks, reds, purples. If you chose your female celebrity, then your icon must be made up of boyish colors, like blues, greens, browns.
2. Spring: Show me springtime in the form of an icon! Bright colors, outside forestry, flowers, etc.
3. Cutout + Fave Color: You must make a cutout of your celeb and place it onto a plain background filled with YOUR favorite color. So if your favorite color is orange, make it the background of your cutout :) Here are some gorgeous examples to get inspired by:
(raiindust - violateraindrop - thyla87 - poisonfield - vrncamrs)
4. Kiss Me: Your celeb must be sharing a kiss with someone, *any* type of kiss! It could be a friendly peck on the cheek, or a passionate locking of lips ;)
5. Whiter Shade Of Pale: Make an icon filled with milky off white pale colors and beautiful low contrast. Stunning examples to garner inspiration from are stunning:
(burymyregret - fassy - julie_izumi - kimcullen - vetica)
6. Peaceful: Icon a zen moment of your celeb, which we could all use a little more of in our lives <3
7. Face Touch: Your celeb must be either touching his/her face, or having someone else touch their face.
8. Inside & Outside The Box: This one's a bit complicated :) Your icon must feature a smaller box within it, and your celeb must be inside the smaller box AND outside it. You can double the same image, or use two seperate pics. Here are double the examples to help you see what I mean:
(gallicka - krazykate - la_inspiracion - naive_astronaut - pandavirus)
(pixie_91 - prettybutt - waaywardson - calrissian18 - candiicon)
9. Insidious: Find an image of your celeb expressing some emotional outrage. Being angry, letting out a scream, giving someone the evil eye, etc.
10. Color Me In: You must start with a black & white image (or start by MAKING your image black & white) and paint in some features. You can color in ALL of the image, or just some small parts of it. Some lovely examples to love and look at:
(absolutelybatty - fassy - longerthanwedo - naginis - poisonfield)
Category Set - Scoobyatemysnax Textures Galore! Every icon in your category set must make use of any of the FOUR amazing texture sets here made by the fabulous scoobyatemysnax. You can use whichever of the textures you like, however you like, as long as one texture is visible in each icon.
Artist's Choice: 5 Icons of your choice!
