Congrats to everyone who placed. margerydaw_s2 is your banner maker.

Enter Week 262 here. So far we have three total icons, from two members.

Between the holiday and Internet issues, I've been kept away. Regardless, we only had 3 icons for "Lyrical" anyway, so the new deadline is this coming Friday @ 9 PM EST.

Submit to [this link].

Because of all these extensions, our last theme will be posted after voting goes up.

Word Theme: - Hush
It's a bit of an anti-word theme *evil laughs* But this week instead of a word theme you will have to submit icons without words on them at all (hush). Tiny text is allowed so long as it is 100% un-readable.

Moderator's Choice Theme: - Negative Space
Your icon must contain plenty of negative space. That means that the majority (> 50%) of the space in your icon should not feature either your subject or a background subject, but empty space or empty background. Here's an example:


(NOT A BASE, AN EXAMPLE)

[x] You may use any official artwork.
[x] All brushes, textures, and animations are allowed.
[x] You may submit up to 3 icons total. They do not have to be different themes.
[x] Icons must be in LJ format: max of 100x100 40K and in .jpg, .gif or .png
