    Re: LIMS #4 - The Ultimate Test of Creativity

    Hello all,

    Is there anyone (somebody who's not still competing, please) who might be willing to take over the LIMS for the next round or two? I've an insane schedule ahead of me and I can hardly find a spare hour or two to sleep, much less run a challenge! :lol:

    If you're able to take over even one round, that'd be fantastic - please PM me or email me at chloewall2002@hotmail.com.

    Thanks. :)

    Oh, I was wondering where Chloe was. :eek: *huggles* I hope your schedule dies down eventually and you can rest. *hands over some warm milk and cookies*

    Can't wait for the new challenge, CSI_Kat. :D

    Thanks for taking over, Katrina, and Chloe- I'll run the next one for you. *huggles* You know I know what a crazy schedule is like and I hope it gets easier for you (and that you can eat ;))

    Ok - so here we are at the next round.

    Color vs. Black/White
    Ok I was just in a challenge where part of the icon had to be black and white. This turned out to be a cool idea. So my challenge to you is - part of your icon must be black/white.

    Remember, only submit one icon. Please PM it to me, CSI Kat by 3:00 p.m. EST on Wednesday, Oct 24. If you choose not to enter this round, PM me and tell me that you'll be using your free pass for this round. BUT REMEMBER! You only have one free pass until the very end - so use it wisely! Also, I do not assume that if you don't enter, you are using your free pass. You need to tell me or you will be automatically eliminated.

    In addition to the LIMS-specific rules, please abide by the other relatively standard rules:

    +You must use one of the pictures I've provided for you.
    +Do not go prancing around posting your icons all over the place until after the round is over.
    +Your entry must not exceed 100x100px or 40kb and must be in .jpg, .png or .gif format.
    +Please refrain from using animated icons.
    +In your PM to me, please include both the image and URL (if you have fewer than 100 posts, then the URL only is okay) and in the subject line, please title it something like LIMS Round 4 or something similar. Challenges make for a messy inbox. I will also be starting another Miami icon challenge this week - so this is very important.
    +Enter one icon and one icon only.

    For this round, you may use the following pictures only:
    Greg-LV
    Cath-LV
    Lindsay-NY
    Mac-NY
    Ryan-Miami
    Natalia-Miami

    caps were found from a variety of sources.....all links were found from here!

    RESTRICTIONS:
    +Animations
    +Black/White

    Feel free to PM me if there are any questions. Good luck to everybody! I can't wait to see the icons!

    So part of the icon have to be color and other part b/w or the whole icon could be b/w?
    *being dumb*

    Re: LIMS #4 - The Ultimate Test of Creativity

    Interesting theme! :D

    I can't wait to get started. Although I get the feeling I'm going to have so much trouble with this. :lol: I'm a colour person. All part of the challenge eh?

    I was looking at the first page to see who was left and wow, you're all hardcore! :eek:

    Challenge #4 - Color vs Black/White - VOTING

    (borrowed from Chloe!)
    +Vote for the TOP 3 of least quality. Include a valid reason for each vote, otherwise it won't be counted.
    +ANY member of this board may vote.
    +The makers of the two icons with the highest number of votes will be eliminated from the challenge.
    +When voting, keep in mind that these icons were made w/ color and black/white.

    Examples of good reasons (courtesy of Ann):
    50: The text is oddly placed
    68: The colouring is overpowering
    72: The icon is oversharpened
    56: The icon is too blurry

    Examples of bad reasons:
    51: I hate the colour pink. (Personal Preference)
    78: The tiny text/decorative brush is unreadable. (Because they’re supposed to be that way.)

    Sadly, we must say goodbye to speed cochraine, real life got in the way! Thank you for participating in LIMS #4, and we all hope to see you back for the next one!

    This is always so hard!

    02: Ryan looks a little rough around the edges. Oversharpened, I think.

    07: I understand the effect you were going for here, but it just doesn't work. The black and white face with the red lips gives the effect of Lindsay looking rather ill.

    09: Image is a bit unclear in some places.
