| Hey everyone! I know I'm starting this contest a few days before 'Dark' ends, but I thought to try and get back on schedule - albeit, a day late. That aside, here is the next contest!! What with moving and tutoring and broken washing machines and deadlines at work, I've been out-right slammed... and feeling more than a little like a lunatic. Thus, led me to choose the theme for this contest... Theme: Insanity - you may use words/characters/scenes of your favourite anime or manga that relate to insanity - remember: insanity can be humorous as well as serious - be creative! Rules: - You can enter up to 2 icons - Icon size: 100x100 or 100x125 (MAL size) - Cannot be from fan art, unless it is your own (or you have permission) - Must be your own work Format for Submitting Icons: 1. (insert icon here) 2. name the character/series 3. give link to the original picture so we know that you did not submit another person's work Reward: If your icon is selected as first place your icon will be used as the main club picture/icon for two weeks until the next Icontest has another winner :) If there are enough entries (and we have enough time), 1st, 2nd and 3rd places will get banners! :) Note: places will be based on individuals, rather than icons ------------------------DEADLINE-------------------------- Sunday, June 15th If you have any questions or comments you can message icecreeaamm or me! We hope to see all your wonderful icons!! :D |
| Ahahaha... the topic looks fun! |

| I think I will do something with Black Star, as insanely (is it the right word?) stupid... >> it's just that I have to do something animated to show it better XD |

| If you did that on MS Paint, it'll naturally turn out like that. You need to do some adjustments to the saving options or some sort. If it wasn't MS Paint, sorry I can't help. D: |
| Gah, nothing is working right now...I just had to reboot my computer. I think I'll just forfeit. Maybe I'll try fixing it on my dad's computer when I go to his house. |
|
| I've made one icon. I will make a better one later, where people actually care about the character. And I did it with NO FAN ART T_T The crazy Patch from Kaiba:  And yes, the original image is the image I used on MAL for him. But I uploaded that screen shot and created him as a character so... :P |

I don't recommend it at all. And if you knew anything about the game, you knew it was gonna end bad. Blech.I've never actuallly watched this but hey, it works StarlitRiot said: Great! Yep, you're allowed to change your icons, but strictly before the deadline :)So i just spent like 4 hrs in photoshop making my first icons ever..tada!! [...] If we decide to change anything in our icons are we allowed to do that even after we post as long as its before the deadline? Galatea said: Thanks for this :)Stock: Fantastic entries so far everyone!!! It's always awesome to see how everyone takes and interprets a theme that is just a word to me - but you all make it a wonderful, and exciting reality! <3 |

| Well, it turns out that I've found a room to rent and will be moving on Sunday. After this time, I will not have access to a computer. I work Thursday and Friday, and I go to see the apartment tomorrow. What little free time I have aside from that will mainly be spent packing and backing up my computer files. Long story short: Don't count on entries from me this time, or for the next month or two. I had a couple ideas for this one (one featuring Envy from FMA and the other featuring Excel from Excel Saga). Alas, I probably won't be able to finished them tomorrow, and if I don't do them tomorrow, I won't do them at all. Oh well. Best wishes to everyone else. :) PS: I like Galatea's and Jello's enties. ^_^b |

Goldmare said: I'm sorry to hear that :( Happy to hear about your room to rent, though! :D Moving is always exciting -- as long as you don't do it too often that it becomes irritating ^^Long story short: Don't count on entries from me this time, or for the next month or two. Best wishes in your move! We'll be looking forward to more entries from you when you get settled in :) |
#1 Anime : Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann Character : Simon Second one maybe later... or not. |

If you have any concerns, I would love to hear them :) Please let me know!And I did it with NO FAN ART T_T oh no no D: I mean I completely understand why no fanart is allowed. I am just a fanart junky; I have so many pictures I could use if fanart was allowed, but I can't. Don't worry, I have no complaints! (If I had, I would of pm'ed you guys and complained haha) edit:  Title: Momotaro Anime: Kemonozume Original image: http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w174/selective_yellow/Picture48.png I made that for fun. It doesn't look the best but it's a very very meaningful icon if you watched kemonozume (and understood it). |

Or did I just pick a really hard theme?? *laughs evilly* As far as I'm concerned, a bit of a challenge is a great thing ;) Two more days, folks. I'll be ending submissions sometime after 9pm on Sunday night, Mountain Time (GMT-7) selective_yellow said: Glad to hear it :) And please, always feel free to do that, lol :DDon't worry, I have no complaints!
