Week 41: Together Forever
Okay! We're going to do a test-run of a new challenge prototype this week! I have based the formatting off of ichallenges such as ff_eye_candy. :-)
Don't forget to vote in this week's poll by TOMORROW [Tuesday, Feb. 28th] at 8 p.m. EST!!
Alright! The rules and guidelines for this type of challenge are as follows:
(1) You may enter up to THREE icons each week, one from each category. More than one icon in given category will result in disqualification.
(2) When giving an overall theme, you must relate your icon to said theme in some way, which is open for interpretation. For example, if the overall, general theme is "use the color pink," then I expect all three icons to utilize some shade of pink. [Further clarification? This week's blanket theme is "Together Forever."]
(3) All icons must fit LJ standards--they can be no bigger than 40k or 100x100 pixels. They must be in one of three formats--".gif," ".jpg," or ".png."
*(4)* BLANKS are images that are already 100x100 pixels. You may ONLY work with the blank provided--you cannot include other photographs, find a bigger version of the picture, etc. YOU MUST USE THE BASE PROVIDED.
*(5)* IMAGES are huge pictures that you are given a link to. You can crop the picture anyway that you want, as long as it comes out to 100x100 pixels. You may ONLY work with the image provided--you cannot include other photographs, find a bigger version of the picture, etc. YOU MUST USE THE IMAGE PROVIDED. If you find a version of the picture with higher resolution, comment and let the mod know--we'll up the better version for EVERYONE to use so that it is fair.
*(6)* The SUB-THEME is a theme that is added ON TOP OF the weekly theme. For example, if the theme is the color pink, your Sub-theme might be to use lyrics from the song "Pink" by Aerosmith while STILL using the color pink in your icon. Sub-themes can be anything: Lyrics, structural requirements, etc. The best part about a sub-theme? YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY GRAPHIC THAT MEETS ALL REQUIREMENTS. ^_^
(7) When posting, be sure to include the URL from each image in addition to whether or not you would like a banner!! Also, to point out the obvious, icons must be submitted via "img src=" so that we can all see the pretty picture IN ADDITION to the link! :-)
Questions or comments? Please post them below and further clarification will be given!
Now that this is out of the way--onto this week's challenge!!
WEEK 41: TOGETHER FOREVER
BLANK:
(blank can also be found here.)
IMAGE: Click here to see me!!
Sub-Theme: Okay, I'm going to start us off with the obvious: Lyrics! Basically, this challenge stemmed from a song that was randomly stuck in my head...so I pass it off to all of you. Lyrics can be found here. I don't know the name of the song or who sang it...I only looked at the first few hits, to be honest. ^^; I do know, however, that it's from Pokemon, and before you flay me, I don't know WHY it was in my head, considering the fact that I never really watched the show. For some reason, I know the song, though. The kid I used to baby-sit for had some sort of CD he listened to a lot...he also watched the show a lot...I guess I just retained it? ?_? Anyway!! Your icon must include AT LEAST THREE CONSECUTIVE WORDS. If you are using font that is illegible, you must comment with exactly WHAT your icon says when posting.
Remember: Your icon must include the theme "Together Forever" in some way! [I'd prefer you to keep this to a 'friendship' type of together as opposed to a 'romantic involvement' type of together if you get my drift...]
You may submit UP TO THREE ICONS by posting a comment to this post! Submissions to any other posts will be disqualified. Icons are due Saturday, March 4th, at 8 p.m. EST.
