Letter
This week, your icon(s) must feature either a subject or text that starts with the first letter of your username. If your username starts with a number or an underscore, choose the first letter after all that. So, for example, gunshou = G. She could either use an image of Gabranth OR have the caption of her icon read "Got Basch?" ~~with a picture of her smiling prettily at you as she hurriedly shoves him back into her bedroom ;D~~. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask~

Remember:
[x] Members may submit up to TWO icons if they should choose to do so.
[x] Your icon must meet LJ requirements. 100x100 or less and no more than 40KB.
[x] You may not show your icon, advertise it, put it up in your icon journal, or use it as your userpic during the challange period.
[x] The icon, as much as possible, must be newly made and not older than 7 days.
[x] Submit your icon in the following format:

We currently have 6 fabulous icons but we'll need more before voting can be held so please consider entering! And seeing as I didn't restrict it, you may use Script fonts as well, so long as you use a sans-serif font somewhere. But, please, no serif fonts. For those of you who have already submitted, feel free to change your icons and resubmit if you like~ Sharing the font love again, I used Arial Black and pUNKASSBITCH. XD;

Week 92 Sans-Serif: Submission Post

2008-07-22T00:10:57Z

Sans-Serif
This week, your icon(s) must have text (sorry all you guys who prefer textless icons, but think of it as a chance to work on using text?) and you must use a sans-serif font, which is a font without feet. See my icon for an example. Here are dafont.com's sans-serif fonts if you want some new ones and I'm pretty sure you all have default sans serif-fonts like Century Gothic and Arial. Anyways, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask~

Remember:
[x] Members may submit up to TWO icons if they should choose to do so.
[x] Your icon must meet LJ requirements. 100x100 or less and no more than 40KB.

featured words: (all of which I Vaan misspells!)

And the image use in icon #1 is not fan art but an official manga image found here.
