Community Info

W E E K L Y   C O N T E S T S   R U L E S   &   I N F O :

1. a weekly challenge will be posted by spiffydaze, usually on a Saturday. Contestants have until the deadline to submit up to three icons that correspond to that challenge. Challenges are either based on a specific Disney movie or a given theme. Caps will be provided, or in certain challenges you are able to pick your own. Full details will be given in the challenge. In challenges that you are allowed to choose your own cap, the icon must be from a Disney animated movie. A comprehensive list can be found here - as long as it is not a live action movie (i.e. featuring real actors) then you're okay.

2. all icons are to fit LJ standards (100x100 or less), 40KB or less, and .jpg, .png and .gif files are accepted (though no animations).

3. as this is a 'hush' contest, no text is allowed, however tiny unreadable text is permitted.

4. winners for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd will be posted, as well as a mod's choice. There will also be a winner for a special category usually related to that specific challenge. Details will be given in the voting post.

5. icons are to be posted in a screened comment to the challenge post. They should also include the icon URL. For example:

6. all submissions are to remain anonymous.

7. all icons must be new and created for the specific challenge.

8. any questions, feel free to comment on any of the posts in the community, at my own journal (spiffydaze) or email me natalie[at]craftymonkie.com.



S C H E D U L E :

The community will try to adhere to these times for challenges:

Saturday: new challenge goes up
Friday: deadline for submissions, and voting goes up
Sunday: voting period ends and winners announced.

Where possible a reminder will be posted in the journal. It helps to both join and friend the community so you don't miss any challenges.




L I M S :

1. LIMs competitions will run con-currently with the regular challenges with the same general rules, the notable differences being that (unless specified) you are only able to submit 1 icon to challenge guidelines.

2. at the voting stage voters will be asked to vote off the icons that they think are of the least techinal quality and provide reasons. Each challenge will result in the elimination of one or several icon makers until only one person remains.

3. for more specific rules please see the specific challenge post and the rules listed under 'weekly contests' above.

A new tradition at disney_hush where participants create a Disney icon for your Secret Santa (who in turn will have made an icon for someone else).

Thanks to everyone who participated :)
