Skip Post

2008-04-01T19:50:15Z

This is the skip post. Seeing as you will be disqualified for not participating in a challenge after signing up, this is the post you might want to read carefully. Participants each have the right to skip one challenge. If you pimp this community in your journals, communities, on your website, e.t.c. (before sign ups close) you may post the link to the entry or page you've pimped or plugged it on and I will give you the right to skip an extra challenge for each time you've pimped this community. It must be a public entry. If you pimp it once, you will have two skip rights. If you pimp it twice, you will have the right to skip three challenges and so on. Get it? However, three skips total is the limit! Even though you have the rights to skip challenges, please try to enter all challenges unless you're really busy or something.

You need to post the link here in order for me to give you the extra skip rights, not anywhere else. Everyone will be allowed a maximum of two extra skips, for a total of three skips.

If you'd like to skip a challenge, please leave a comment here with the challenge # that you'd like to skip.

Re-opening Community/Sign Ups !

2008-04-01T17:04:48Z

Community has been re-opened. I would like to thank starbuck42084 for allowing me to take over this LIMS. I have given the community a make-over with a change in layout and header to give it a fresh new look.

ROUND THREE of ca_lims is open,

Now I would like to welcome everyone to ROUND THREE of ca_lims I hope that we can get a lot of really talented people to participate.

If you wish to participate in the challenge, sign up here. Just comment with your username and you will be added to the sign up list. It doesn't matter what your skill level is, you won't have to apply, everyone can join no matter how good they are. Sign ups will be open until voting for the first challenge begins.

Do not sign up if you don't plan on participating. If you're here only for the icons, just friend the community, don't join!

Pimping or promoting of the community is highly encouraged and most definitely appreciated. We want to get lots of people to participate and the more the merrier! I would like at least 10 participants signed up before I begin the first challenge. So pimp away! There are benefits to pimping as well. For every pimp you post on your friends list, you will get a free skip. A skip allows you the luxury of skipping a challenge you've signed up for. As a participant you only get one skip, but the more you promote the community, the more skips you get (up to 3)! Everybody wins! Check out the skip post HERE for more information!

First off, congratulations to glassnowdrop and ephemerally for making it this far! Obviously, neither of you will be able to vote but you can pimp the vote in your journal (just keep your icons anonymous please!) :)

1. ANYONE CAN VOTE. You don't have to be a member or a participant to vote.
2. Vote for YOUR FAVOURITE icon in EACH section. You don't have to provide a technical reason, but it would be nice.
3. Don't vote for your own entry.
4. Don't tell people to vote for you. Keep your icon anonymous until the results are posted.
5. Voting is screened, no one will know who you voted for, so don't worry about insulting anyone.
6. You are not to vote for a particular style you do or don't like or something like that, but on the quality of the icons. Look at the image quality, the cropping and colouring, and the use of brushes, textures, text and effects.

Here are some examples of how to vote properly:

1g, 2f, 3h

Voting will be open until Friday, June 29th @ 10:00 PM EST. I want to see a lot of votes guys, this is the last challenge of the round and will determine our second round winner!

1a	1b

2a	2b

3a	3b

[x] ANYONE CAN VOTE. You don't have to be a member or a participant to vote.
[x] Vote for ONE icon of LEAST quality, not just any one low quality icon, but the least quality icon. You must provide a technical reason for voting.

[x] Don't tell people to vote for you. Keep your icon anonymous until the results are posted.
[x] Voting is screened, no one will know who you voted for, so don't worry about insulting anyone.
[x] You are not to vote for a particular style you don't like or something like that, but on the quality of the icons. Look at the image quality, the cropping and coloring, and the use of brushes, textures, text and effects.

Here are some examples of reasons you are not allowed to give/Bad Votes:

321: This icon sucks
100: OMG it's so ugly
656: I don't like it

Here are some examples of how to vote properly based on technical aspects/Good Votes:

134: The icon is blurry/oversharpened.
200: The texture used overpowers the entire icon.
