Apologies for the lack of moderation. I really hope to see this community out of the slump it is currently in. :)

Welcome to Round Seven! This round is all about pictures and quotes/lyrics!
You can enter up to two fictions.
1. ( explanation of challenge. )
2. ( images. )
3. ( quotes. )
4. ( fandoms. )
5. We'd appreciate it if every member could support their peers and leave each other feedback where their fiction is placed. It's not really that difficult, as when it's time for voting you've got to read their work anyway. Besides, it's encouraging and supportive and hopefully it'll start a little habit. Everyone likes to be appreciated for something. This will be encouraged every round. It'd be good to see some member interaction! :)
6. You sign up, you vote. It’s only common courtesy if someone votes for you that you take the time to vote for your fellow peers and leave constructive and helpful feedback. If you do not, see what happens when you submit RPF or smut: disqualification. Your fic will be taken out of the round this year.
7. TAG ALL ENTRIES. - fanfiction, round seven, author: username.
If you're new, don't worry about the personal tag. I'll be checking tags and adding ones for new participants - but please be sure that the next time you enter the competition that you tag with your personal i.d.
EVERY ENTRY SUBJECTS MUST LOOK LIKE THIS: R – TITLE. Make sure you change “TITLE” to your work. I plan on catching up on all the memming of the work. It makes it easier for me — and making things easier for me makes me a happy camper.
Make sure you specify which prompt you chose. This means both the image and quote in your posting template.
8. If you have any problems with this, please feel free to contact me. (Most likely, reply below.)
Sign Up Information: Same as last time. You sign up, we know you’re in for this round. If you need to get out, just say so and we’ll forget that you ever signed up in the first place.
There will be no links attached to the challenge posts. It’s your job to look out for relevant posts. All of the ones I’ve made in the past have gone unanswered, so I have been given the impression that I only link them for nothing.
Be sure to know that if you need an extension, there is a post out there for you. See the tags for it. Or, better yet, just say the word here. We don't mind giving out extensions for whatever reason. :)
Other Details: For your information, just so you know when your fic. is most likely expected, the (approximate) dates are below.
+ Fics are due the 26th September. *
+ Sign ups will end on 19th September.
+ Voting will take place on 27th September.*
+ Winners will be announced the 4th October.*
(* - Check if this changes.)
That's two weeks for entries. Any problems, please comment! As stated above, we're always happy for extensions. Also, if you want to enter more than two fics, you're always welcome to!
GOOD LUCK, and have fun! =) Questions for this particular challenge can be posted here. :) Please make sure you tell your friends about us! ♥
Also, would you guys like a new layout?

pretty_stickers is back up and running after an unexpected leave of absence.
Few things have changed:
1. The point system will probably not be put into practice. There are some issues with it, and mostly it's me keeping up with the whole tallying business. Thank you for putting up with this, and allowing it to be an unofficial trial. Perhaps when the community is alive again and people say they want it back, it'll start again.
2. I'm juggling with the idea that participants of the current round can - if they want to - submit a challenge idea for the next round, so that I don't have to pick it out of thin air or search through our very old Suggestion Box for ideas - and instead of me picking them all the time. I'm hoping that this will increase the interaction within the community and make members feel more apart of it.
3. Fandoms will possibly change. Any new suggestions for additions or subtractions are always welcome.
Before I start Round Seven, I wanted to know if anyone still out there is still interested in this challenge community?

current song: what ever happened? - the strokes.
There really is no excuse for the absence, so I sincerely apologise and hope that you all are still eager for
pretty_stickers. Here are the long awaited winners. Congratulations to every participant! Without you, pretty_stickers would've sunk. ;)If you see any problems, please report them. (Winners from this round.) Challenge ideas are most certainly welcome. ;)

Thank you to all who participated in Round Six! It’s been a very long round, and I hope we’ll get some really satisfying results to make up for the increasingly long wait for the winners post.
Obviously, you should know the rules when it comes to voting, but to sum it up as a reminder: vote for the fiction that suit’s the category, stating why you are voting for it and give some feedback, too. In the subject of your comment, put “oh, baby, won’t you cry?” so I know you’ve read this whole post and won’t put you on my hit list. Vote for one story per category, and if a story does not fit into a category, leave it -- sometimes the mod forgets to check if some fics can fit into certain awards. If you’ve entered this round and you don’t vote, then your fic will be disqualified. And, no, I’m not just saying that.
Comments are obviously screened. Extra cookies (aka points) if you leave feedback at the fic post. The first comment in the post is an example as to what your voting comment should look like (template post). Use the template below, please, and make sure you do it correctly -- just like everyone else, the mod doesn’t have huge amounts of spare time to re-code everything and try to decipher spelling mistakes, etc. the mod is, in fact, a human being with school under her belt.
Judge’s Award is still running, however some of you may have forgotten your numbers. Anyone who wants to have the chance to be a Judge, feel free to sign up now! There’s no deadline for this part of
pretty_stickers. Check posts for new bits and pieces -- and make sure you nominate for points! I can’t stress this enough. Also, ideas for Round Seven will be greatly appreciated!Five Reasons John Casey Might Be In Love -
if your heart is nowhere in it -
Five Conversations Michael Bluth Has Never Had With His Family -
why can’t we just fall in the sea? -
Five Times Claire Bennett Doesn’t Want to Live Forever -
Winners will be announced 12th April. Please participate in drabbles, give ideas, and check posts. If you need anything clarified, feel free to ask!

Last week was an unofficial extension. This week is the last one I'll give. We've had many people sign up, and only five people enter this challenge. Please get an entry in (or another one, if you've already gotten yours in)! We'd like a range of fics to vote for. And, next time, please don't sign up if you won't deliver. It really hinders the voting process.
Also, please advertise the community, and check all the mod posts - there have been new ones up, especially the nominating members for points. You'll need to get stuck into telling me who needs points because I won't be hunting down everyone.
Voting will be on next week. If people don't start entering when they sign up, there'll be unofficial strikes against their name. I'm sorry, but, please try to get something in; it's getting rather ridiculous where people start signing up and don't submit something - and I understand the muse issues, but please know this beforehand.
Also, the drabbles are staying as they are for this week because I believe we can get a few more of those in.
Have a good week - and please, if you haven't submitted something in yet, do.

Due to the lack of entries from the last (and current) round,![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)
pretty_stickers is going on a hiatus until possibly early next year. Then it will be decided whether the community stays up and running or closes permanently.
Have a Merry Christmas and a fantastic New Year! :)
