Alrighty all, this is a "Holiday" round, and therefore is a special round as well. Here's how this is going to work:
Basically, this is a "Secret Santa" round, meaning you are going to make 20 icons for your recipient, and there will be voting at the end of the round. This won't be a "normal" round with 10 themes, 5 category icons, and 5 artist choice icons, but more like the
Music Round we did in Round 6. When the info is posted, we'll post pictures, textures, words, and perhaps music videos as inspiration for you.
Based on your interests you are going to leave in a comment, the co-mod and I will do our best to match you up with a person who share your similar interests the most.
If you'd like to participate in this round, please fill out the form below and do try to be clear in what you're looking for as far as characters, ships, colors, text you do or do not want.
Please do NOT sign up for this round if you are going to be unable to make 20 icons primarily for someone else. SIGN UPS END November 18th, and the deadline to turn in icons is January 15, 2014, so hopefully that will help your decision to join or not.
(The sign-up form sort of mirrors the one from
ouat-exchange as it fits for what we're doing.)
Also, I really care what you all think, so if you have any comments or complaints expressing that while you like the thought of a holiday round but don't like the idea of a "Secret Santa" please let me know in a comment or a PM. If we get a lot of comments of disinterest in this round, personally I have no problem in making this a regular 20in20 round instead while keeping up the holiday spirit.
