Challenge 80 - It's a Two Parter
Welcome to Challenge 80 - Freeze Frame & Community Graphics
This is a two part challenge. Please read the instructions carefully.
Part 1
Alright, we're going to work with some more season 4 images again, but this time we're going to make black and white icons with a splash of color. You can do the color any way you'd like. By highlighting color already in the image, by using a light texture and/or you can even do colored text(text of your own making) if you like. At least half of your icon should stay black and white though. So be careful when using textures because sometimes they can add a hint of color to your entire icon. Examples under the cut.
NOTE: The color splash for these black and white icons is optional. If you just want to go with straight black and white icons that is fine as well. Or mix it up.
We'll start out with Most Creative for a special category and then I'll add another spec. cat. if we get enough entries.

Part 2
This is the community graphic and icon portion of the challenge. I thought it would be nice to have updated season 4 graphics for the Profile Page and new community icons.
For this part of the challenge I've provided the three season 4 cast promo posters for you to work with. You don't have to do a blended collage like what we have now. You can do what ever you want and the coloring doesn't matter because we can match the background to go with your winning graphics. You only need to make one set of profile graphics.
For the icons use the same promo posters and be sure to put the name of the community on the icons.
Nothing needs to be matchy matchy unless you want it that way. There will be ten winners for the community icons because we are going to replace all the slots.
Read the rules under the cut for more detail and a better understanding of Part 2.
CHALLENGE 80 - PART 1 - Community Icons and Profile Graphics
Profile Graphics
This is what our Profile Page graphics look like. The only requirements for your graphics is that they need to be made from the season 4 promo posters provided and they need to be a set of three different images sized 100 pixels wide by 300 pixels tall. No text! You only need to make 1 set, so make it count. :)
Current Profile Graphics: (You do not need to make blended graphics like these. Do whatever you want with the posters I've provided.)
100x300
Community Icons
+ You may make up to 4 icons.
+ Please use ONLY the images provided.
+ You may mix the images
+ The icons must have the name of the community on them True Blood Stills. TBS is also acceptable.
+ All other regular icon challenge rules apply. See above.
IMAGES for Part 2
Warning: These three images are huge. You might have to click on the image again to see the full size. 1620x2400
You may post your part 1 and part 2 entries in a separate comment if you'd like. Please provide the image and the URL.

If you're not sure about something please ask before you go through all the work of making your icons and graphics. I will be happy to answer any questions.
In order to give willow_lives a much needed break and to give you all plenty of time to get your icons and graphics made you'll have most of June to work on everything.
Entries are due Tuesday evening, June 21st extension to July 4th at 9:00 PM CST
