AboutI've seen Icon Contests throughout all of livejournal. They all have various themes, rules, etc. Some are like ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)
the_icon_ritz or vg_icon_awards and some are like i_contest.
I decided to follow a format similar toi_contest, only this time I decided to narrow the field to Video Games and Anime. I decide to add both because I do happen to like them both, and they're actually somewhat related.
Two things that will hopefully make this community stand out:
1. I have NO fear of adult themes, so don't be surprised if I do call for "sex", "het", "yuri" or "BDSM" out as themes. If you're underage--DON'T let anyone in the comm know. I have my limits though, but please keep what I said in mind.
2. Along with voting, there will be a "moderator's choice" section. This means that you have two chances of winning. Either through me(or any other moderator, if applicable) or through the popular vote.
Rules:
1. All icons must be submitted by midnight on Sunday, Central Time
2. Only one icon may be submitted per person per theme.
3. a. Please do not advertise which icon is yours in your journal or anywhere else. I'm not talking about submitting older icons, I'm talking about posting an entry on your journal or elsewhere and saying "Vote for my icon here", "Vote for me," etc.
b. You CAN vote for yourself.
4. All icons submitted must be uploaded and hosted on a site that allows offsite linking. If it's not, that's not my problem. You are responsible for making sure your icon works.
5. All icons submitted must abide by Livejournal's icon rules [100x100 no bigger than 40k]
6. All icons submitted after the deadline will NOT be accepted. No exceptions.
7. Icons may only be submitted to post that says "Post [theme] icons here!" Anywhere else and they will not be accepted.
8. Video Games/Anime ONLY!
9. When I post screenshots/bases, then one icon per screenshot/base is allowed.
***
All icons are to be submitted to the post that says, "Submit icons here". These posts are made on Wednesday's after the previous week's winners are announced. Since individual posts are screened, you no longer have to submit anonymously. Just submit the image with the URL and you're good to go!
Themes are announced on Wednesdays, you have until midnight on Sunday to submit an icon.
Please keep in mind that themes can also be game/anime series. So, if I say, the theme is "Sailor Moon", then Icons featuring Sailor Moon will be all that's acceptable.
Doujinshi/Manga are allowed.
Monday is held for Phase One of voting.
Tuesday is Phase two.
Wednesday, winners(both voting and moderator's chouce) are announced
