I received 30 gorgeous icons for this challenge, so thank you for participating and good luck to everyone! XD

[ Here ] is a link to the submission post as a reminder of what the themes were.

In order to vote, reply to this screened post with your 3 favorite icons in order of preference. Then choose an icon for the Special Category. The special category for this week is Best Text. Choose the icon with the text you feel is the most effective and enhances the overall icon. Whether it’s because of the arrangement and appearance of the text or the actual meaning is entirely up to you. Please make sure that the icon you choose is different than the three you’ve already chosen. Meaning all 4 icons/numbers must be different.

The more votes I get ensures that there are accurate results, so if you can, please vote. Remember DON'T vote for yourself, and DON'T get your friends to vote for you. If you need to recast your vote, then delete your previous comment, and in your new comment let me know you're revoting. The format could be:


First: 15
Second: 45
Third: 22
Special Category: 30

or if you prefer:

15, 45, 22
30

Remember, you must chose a different icon for each category for your vote to count.
