The icon contest is back, folks!! For those of you who are a little newer to the boards, this is how the icon contest will work:

The icon contest will run for a few weeks: one week for sign-ups, and three weeks after that for you to get all your icons done, and one week for the polls.

Each round will consist of five different themes, and all contestants must make five different icons to fit each of those themes. That means each contestant will make a total of 25 icons.

At the end of each round, six different polls will go up. One poll for each theme, and one poll for overall artist of that round. The polls will stay open for one week.

First, second and third place from each poll will receive a fancy award banner and points for their House. First place gets 100 points, second place gets 75 points, and third gets 50. The overall artist for each round will also get House Points, and they will also be able to choose one theme for the next round.


  • All entries must conform to icon size - 100px by 100px.
  • Subjects for your icons must be limited to the Jossverse - Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly/Serenity, Dollhouse and Dr. Horrible.
  • All icons must be made for this contest - no re-suing old icons.
  • No animated icons - this is a STILLS contest.
  • And this should go without saying, but make sure you enter your OWN WORK. Theft will not be tolerated.

Please post here if you would like to sign-up for this contest. This thread will stay open for one week, and then next Sunday, July 15th, I will post the five themes in a new thread. You'll have three weeks from next Sunday to make your icons.

Any questions, please feel free to ask, either here or through PM!
 
Oh I'm totally in! Anything to try and get Drogyn some more points! Now the hard part - waiting to see what the themes are!
 
I'm with [MENTION=7407]caitaintdead[/MENTION]- We gotta get some folks from the other houses to participate!! Come on, VH'ers and Raideners!

I assume since you're running it, you're ineligible? I just don't have the skills, sorry 🙁

Yeah, I can't enter. :\ You should enter though! Icons are easy!
Ok, ok, I'll sign up and cross my fingers that I actually can find time to make them! Though I've never actually made an icon...

(Erm, [MENTION=9799]Taake[/MENTION] and [MENTION=10297]Spikefan31[/MENTION], maybe we could get the real artists in VH in this??) 😛

I have got to grips with the machanics of the programs, my problem is artistic ability. Have you seen the rest of the competition? They're all freaking amazing at this stuff!!! Give me a word based contest and I'll be all over it 🙂
 
I will think about it a little, icons is not where my strenght lies but it might be fun if I can find the time 🙂

I'm flattered, but I think you've made a mistake. I'm no artist. Haha. I don't make banners or icons or anything. But you should totally enter. 🙂
