HOW THIS GOES DOWN.
A quick rundown of the order of events, which is as much for me as it is for you.
+ Signups will remain open until July 26, a.k.a the end of Round One.
+ Since calendarsquares is not only for Anime and Manga. Stock, TV Shows, Disney, and Comic Book imagery are going to be allowed as well for this Rumble, so be sure to take advantage of it!
+ Round One will begin June 22. Makers will need to submit by July 26.
+ Round Two will begin July 29. Makers will need to submit by August 2.
+ Round Three will begin August 5. Makers will need to submit by August 9.
+ Round Four will begin August 12. Makers will need to submit by August 16.
+ The winners will be determined by August 19. The five participants with the highest scores will receive banners.
+ A showcase will eventually be posted after things have settled down again.

SHOW ME WHAT YOU'RE MADE OF...

Pimp this challenge up to three times publicly for an extra point per plug!
Make sure you do this early, because you will only receive the bonus points until the submissions close for the first challenge.

SHOWING UP
Submit up to the maximum of three icons to the Color Combo of the Month challenge for a bonus of two points per icon! If the slots fill up for July's calendar, August's will go up next, so there are plenty of slots for everyone to take advantage of this.
EDIT: I forgot that June's calendar was also behind, so those who want to put their icons toward filling up those leftover slots are free to do so~
JUNE CALENDAR |
JULY CALENDAR(click the icon for the submission/inspiration posts)
Some extra guidelines will apply for this...
[x] If you had already submitted icons for the calendar earlier in July, you can claim those points now if you wish.
[x] If you submit the maximum of three icons for July's calendar before it fills up and claim the points you cannot claim extra points for submitting icons for August's calendar as well.
KICK BUTT, TAKE NAMES.
