Feedback Polls  
Congratulations to [info]fan_cifully, [info]obaona, and [info]winterfish! *throws confetti* Congrats to ALL of our participants, makers and voters. You make this community work and we hope to see everyone return for Round 3.

We've completed another round of LIMS which means it's Feedback Time. w00t! In the spirit of LIMS, we invite you to critique the community. Nothing is ever perfect (as I believe my vote tallies have proven from time to time) and this is your opportunity to help us identify areas for improvement.

We appreciate your taking the time to fill out a couple of polls. Thank you!

Alternates: Round 2 // Challenge 18  
Did you create a few icons for the challenge and then choose the best one to submit? Did you make icons from the caps though you did not participate in the last challenge?

If so, this is where you can post those "rejected" icons (along with your submitted entry) and make them sharable to others.

Voting: Round Finals!!!  
It's that time! We've had a disturbing decline in votes in the last month. After you vote, would you please take a moment to promote this challenge in your LJs? I'd really like to get as many votes as we possibly can for the finals so that the winners are chosen by a broad swath of the fandom. Thank you!

(I extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our steady voters who take the time each and every week to provide feedback to makers. You're much loved and appreciated.) Without further ado...


VOTING
  • You must vote for two icons in each group: your least favorite (the entry you consider to be of lesser quality in technique) and your favorite (the entry you consider to be the best).
  • You must provide a reason for ALL of your votes.
  • Please remember that you are judging on technique shown in making an icon. Voting should never be based on your personal character, pairing, or team preferences. "Text is ugly" is not a constructive comment; "Text is too formal for an icon that is humorous," is.
  • Whether an icon fits the week's cap theme is irrelevant and should not be used as a basis for voting.
  • Only the votes complying with the above rules will be counted.
  • If you have any questions at all about what qualifies as a constructive comment or any other topic, please don't hesitate to contact either [info]beeej or me. You may private message me here on LJ at any time.

Voting concludes Thursday, April 16th, 8PM Central Time. (Click here to convert to your local time.)

Round 2 // Challenge 18: FINALS!  
Congratulations to [info]fan_cifully, [info]obaona and [info]winterfish, and welcome to the Final Challenge of Round 2!

Your final challenge will consist of two parts, and you will be making two icons.

A. Action Heroes. We've picked out a dozen great caps of SG1 in action. You are to make one icon from the caps located here.

B. Start to Finish. We've collected one cap from each season, and the two movies. Your task is to make one icon that blends two images. Caps are located here.

The Details:
. You must use the caps supplied. You may use only the caps supplied.
. You must submit two icons for this challenge.
. If you decide to change your entry, simply delete your existing reply and post your new submission.
. Please don't post or use your icon anywhere until the challenge is over. Doing so will result in your disqualification.
. Use of textures, brushes, blending, and animation is permitted. All text brushes are banned.
. Check the user info for a how-to on submitting.

Entries are due on Tuesday, April 14th: 8 p.m. Central Time. A time zone converter can be found here if you need it.
