Okay. Absolutely first and foremost, I am so, SO sorry for the length of time you guys have had to wait on this. I as a mod feel horrible about it, and although there were valid real life circumstances that have hampered me for the past couple of weeks, I still don't see that as any type of excuse. It isn't fair to keep everyone here waiting, and ( Read more... )

WELL! What a turnout!!!!! I'm really, really amazed that during this busy period for a lot of us, during exam and assignment time and with Thanksgiving coming up in the U.S., we have 41 awesome icons to vote on! Yep, you read that right - I actually counted them a few times because I was so sure I had made a mistake with the numbers somewhere. (I ( Read more... )

"What the heck?" I can hear you guys saying. "A banner post? I thought voting was supposed to be tonight!" Well - the answer is that I as a mod goofed up, and not only did I post the reminder on the wrong day for this week's deadlines, I gave the wrong deadline! *FACEPALM* The deadline in the challenge post itself is absolutely correct: your icons ( Read more... )

And here is that aforementioned reminder. :D We're not doing too badly with our second Prequel movie-based challenge - we've got 6 awesome icons entered as I type this - and I am of course bearing in mind the fact that a lot of people are super-busy at the moment with papers and assignments and maybe even studying for exams. I remember those days ( Read more... )

It's been a bit of a banner blitz around here lately, with shadadukal very kindly stepping in and offering to make banners for Challenge #86 - you can see them HERE if you haven't already. Thanks, Shada! :D

Said banner blitz continues now, as I have here banners for Challenge #101 winners lealynnkenobi, immortalje, darth_vice and holy_naberrie. I really wish I was as good at Photoshop as you folks, ( Read more... )

That's right - it's time for another one of our movie-specific themes! In 2002, George Lucas released the second installment in his Prequel Trilogy, Attack of the Clones, and while it wasn't exactly the favourite of many Star Wars fans (if I had a dollar for every time I've heard someone complain about the dialogue, I'd be as rich as Papa George ( Read more... )

My apologies for the lateness of this! Yesterday was uncharacteristically busy, as I've been helping out this week with a family situation (my cousin broke his leg, so his wife has needed help with childcare for their two-year-old son). Anyway, I'm here now, so let's top off Challenge #101, shall we? :D ( Read more... )

In between running around after my two-year-old cousin and baking Christmas cake with my mom and aunts, I present to you voting! It's up a little later than I hoped it would be - funny how LJ always seems to go down for maintenance at the exact times I need it most - but ah well. You'll be given a few extra hours to vote in compensation for said ( Read more... )

Just wanted to let you guys know that there will be a slight delay with the voting post - I was all set to start putting it together tonight, but LJ was down for maintenance at that exact point, and unfortunately I've run out of time. Under ordinary circumstances I'd probably suck it up and stay up a little later, but real life is intervening ( Read more... )

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Hope you guys are all having a semi-okay week - mine's a lot better than last, so I'm pleased about that. :) It's now time for your regularly-scheduled Wednesday reminder, wherein I poke you all (gently!) and tell you that your icons for Challenge #101 are due this Friday, November 13 at 10:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
