I've only received one entry so far for the first challenge, so get goin' guys! :P I've decided to shoot for this Saturday (5/30) as the deadline for entries. We'll say ... 'til the end of the day, at midnight. Please submit something if you can (you don't have to submit three, that's just the max) here. I mean, what was the point in joining if you're not going to participate, eh, eh? I really would like to see this community grow & get better, but I can't do it alone :P Hope to see some entries soon! :)

Alright guys, I promised I would actually get this comm going, so heeeere we go :) Everyone please participate! It's all anonymous except for winners, so even if you're concerned about your ~skills~ or what have you, just go for it! It's all in good fun.


All rules are in the user info, but for a quick review:
! Members only may participate. Feel free to join.
! Up to 3 icons per challenge may be submitted.
! All icons must fit LJ standards (100x100, 40KB or less, etc)
! NO ANIMATIONS.
! Anything else is fine (text, brushes, blending, be creative!)
! All entries must be brand new, created for the challenge.
! Do not post or use your icons anywhere else until challenge is over.
! Post your entries in a comment to this entry. All comments are screened. Include the image URL with each image. This makes it much easier for the mod to repost your icons for voting. If you don't post the image URL, your icon will not be included in voting! If you need help or have any questions about this, just ask :)


You may choose from ANY of these photos & even combine them however you please, just remember you can only submit three icons! (Click thumbnails for larger photos).











ENTRIES SO FAR: 07

Hey guys, we've gotten quite a few more members here since I last attempted to promote the community, so thank you guys for that :) Unfortunatelyyyy I'd still like maybe 5 - 10 more members before we begin challenges, so we're guaranteed plenty of participation & this community doesn't fall flat on it's ass.

Promote, promote, promote! Beg, bribe, whatever. Do what you gotta do, babes. I don't want this place to get lost in the pit of lj's unsuccessful communities lmao. & Again, thank you guys, y'all are fantastic!

Since this is a graphic-related community & I ... make graphics, I figured I MIGHT AS WELL do a promo contest to get the member count up, & then get the challenges going!

GUIDELINES:
! Leave a comment with your username.
! Post one of the banners in any journal/comm that allows it.
! If you were referred by someone, comment on their thread! The person with the most referrals will win.
! Everyone must remain members until the contest is over!
! If you were referred during the contest, you can start your own thread as well :)

PRIZES:
! All participants will receive 2 icons.
! 3RD: 10 icons, 5 personal icons, 2 headers/banners (or 5 more personal icons if you would rather have that.)
! 2ND: 20 icons, 10 personal icons, 4 headers/banners (or 10 more personal icons.)
