Winners: Laughter
First of all, thanks to everyone who took the time to vote in the recent poll and/or share your views in the comments. It certainly seems to be a rather divided issue, but in the end the majority of you were more comfortable not allowing Code Geass icons in this icontest. So from this point on, icons from that series are not allowed here and I'll keep these results in mind if any similar issues arise in the future.
Moving on, thanks to all those who submitted these lovely icons and/or took the time to cast your vote. A wonderful job by everyone but a special congratulations to this week's winners:
First Place
(perfectexcuses | Yumi from Chobits)
Second Place
(myreasoninlife | Umi from Magic Knight Rayearth)
Third Place
(siiy | Sakura from Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle)
Moderator's Choice
(_forluna | Kohaku from Wish)
Reasons: Lovely choice of imagery and use of cropping. The icon has a soft brightness/glow to it, that seems to capture the very sense of laughter
