first; a general note :

i am SO sorry about the horrible and uncustomary delay! in all honesty, i just had other things to deal with and couldnt get to livejournal. family stuff has been something horrible lately and my access to a computer became unavailable until now. not to mention trying to get ready to move into my dorm and saying goodbye to friends; i just had to put journal-life on hold for a moment and deal with the real stuff. i'm sorry i wasnt able to let you all know what the hold up was! but anyway, here we have it . the challenge six voting!!!

we have 17 great entries so far!

Sun, 26 Jun 2005 18:10:39 GMT

dear emmychallenges
in case you arn't aware of the recent news;
i have banned the user fantasiesunwind due to the fact that she showed me her site, which actually had some of my icons, your icons, and other phantom icon makers icons ALL OVER THE SITE. These icons were being HOTLINKED and had no credit.
This may not be a good reason to ban someone from a community, but since i am so outraged, and since a chunk of the icons were from challenge two, i decided it was best. (she was also displaying an icon she submitted for challenge three before winners or even voting!)
my photobucket has consiquently exceeded, but my bandwidth resets tomorrow, so if you need any of the banners or anything, dont worry, they'll be back tomorrow.

we now have 11 entries for the current challenge. please submit, and i'm sorry for all of this.

+if you know of any xenga sites or other sites displaying ANYONES icon without credit or it is being HOTLINKED, or if you are committing this offense, PLEASE PLEASE stop or inform the person you know to stop.

REMINDER + DATE CHANGE

Sat, 25 Jun 2005 23:22:59 GMT

hey! i just changed the turn in date for CHALLENGE THREE from july 5th to june 28th. i thought we might need more time to accumulate members or get more entries in, or SOMETHING. actually, i'm pretty unsure of what i was thinking. in conclusion, i cant wait for voting, so i'm moving it up a week. you still have tonight, sunday, monday and tuesday to get an icon in . . . so i hope thats enough time.
we already have 10 great entries!!
i would LOVE to see more.

so, if you haven't already entered, submit an icon or two for challenge three (link above) by
TUESDAY, JULY 28TH AT MIDNIGHT (central time)

and, if you happen to be posting icons somewhere, or posting an entry in your own journal, or doing anything ;
please dont hesitate to PROMOTE EMMY CHALLENGE.
there are buttons in the userinfo to use, or you can use this banner i just made :)

go ahead and hotlink THIS BANNER ONLY if you need to, for the sake of promotions
but if you can, save to your own server.

:D
