For our sixth icontest, I picked a beautiful, sweet theme: Vintage Disneyland/Disney World. Disney contributed enormously to the 1960s, most particularly in the realm of animatronics at the 1964 World Expo at New York City. Plus, it was the happiest place on Earth!

- You may use any wording you like.

- You must use a picture of Disneyland or Disney World from the 1960s. Even at the links I've provided, many images are from the '70s -- and the '70s are a no-no! Check the dates on the picture you choose.

- Blending is allowed.

Images can be found at the following highly recommended links:

• Lala's Vintage Disney
• Yesterland
• Walt Dated World
• Vintage Disneyland at Flickr

- Entries are due by 11:59 PM on Monday, February 4!

Just about three days left to enter the Sammy Juste challenge!  We've only had three entrants so far, but we have over FIFTY members now (Woo!   So fab!) -- let's see some mod Sammy icons, ladies and gents!

For our fifth icontest (wow, already?) I picked a lesser-known but totally gear '60s celebrity, Sammy Juste. She modeled alongside Twiggy, Pattie Boyd, and the Shrimpton Sisters as well as being quite possibly TV's first celebrity deejay (on Top of the Pops!) before marrying Monkee Micky Dolenz!

- You may use any wording you like.

- You must use a picture of Sammy, not Sammy & Micky. Pictures of Sammy can be a little tricky to track down, so I've provided 36 for you (and honestly, these are all of the pictures of Sammy modeling that I've ever found -- though if you have more, please donate in a comment and I'll add them to the list!

- One picture per icon for this challenge!  You can reuse the same picture in an icon, but you may not blend two images.

Examples:

 

The rest are under the [retrospective] cut!
