Hunt Challenge: HP Wiki
This is something I stole from icon_crack, it seemed to work out pretty well in there so I wanted to give it a shot. Basically I will ask you to click here in order to be redirected to the random article generator of the HP Wiki. Whatever article you get you have to use as inspiration. You don't have to do exactly what you get randomly assigned (although you might) so feel free to get as creative as you want with it. For example, I just clicked and got an article on Victoire Weasley, I might rather do an icon on Fleur, or Bill, or perhaps a quote from the Epilogue, maybe even a macro... Just state what sort of connection you did when creating the icon and give us a link to the article you were given. I know there will be people tempted to click more than once, I'll go with the honor system and trust that you won't.
Rules of the Hunt Challenge:
* You may use any picture you find, but it must be IN CHARACTER!
* Please do NOT use images provided on this post for your hunt icons. Go find YOUR OWN images!
* Blending, Text, and Animation are allowed.

* Remember to include the URL and the SRC when posting (see the example below).
* Try to keep all your challenge icons under ONE post, labeling which ones go to each contest.
* DEADLINE: Monday, July 28 @ 8pm central time zone (GMT - 5:00).
