Scythe

A few years ago all posters with under 101 posts were able to use a 'Standard Avatar' from a selection pre-uploaded to the site. When the size of avatars changed from 45 x 45 to 100 x 100, a decision was made to eliminate the default avatars. However, we would like to bring them back and we would like all posters to have a chance to submit avatars for consideration. Posters will still need 101 posts to upload a custom avatar of their choice.

We're going to add 5 avatars per board. All Moderators will pick 10 and the Graphics Team will then select the final 5 from those 10.

To make things easier, we will be doing this in categories starting with TV Shows: Present.

TV Shows: Present Feb 1st - Feb 15th
Female Celebrities Feb 15th - Mar 1st
Male Celebrities Mar 1st - Mar 15th
Music Artists Mar 15th - Mar 29th
Sci-fi/Fantasy and Fan Extras Mar 29th - Apr 12th
TV Shows: Past Apr 12th - Apr 26th
General Discussion Apr 26th - May 10th

New boards will get their 5 avatars as soon they have been made permanent.

Anyone can submit an Avatar and if you would like to submit any avatars for this board, please post them here on this thread. Make sure that they follow all of the rules outlined below.

Rules for avatars:
1) Please don't include any text on the avatars.
2) No animated avatars.
3) Keep in mind that the avatars should be a general representation of the board.
4) You may submit up to 5 avatars (no more) per person per board.
5) Apart from rules 1 & 2, whatever style, colors, brushes, textures you use is up to you!
6) All avatars must be 100px x 100px

Please only submit avatars that you have made yourself. If you need help/suggestions please check out the thread here on the Fan Art board. You can see the icons we have already uploaded in the Edit Avatar page of your User CP.

You may start posting your avatars here right away!

Music Artists Deadline: Mar 29th

Thanks for starting the thread, Jen.

I hope we'll have a nice bunch of icons submitted - so excited to see them!

Pure.Magic

Thanks for the thread, Jen.

I am too, Szilvia!! I cant wait to start working on my batch!

happy mom

V, I wish I could look over your shoulder as you make them.

Bring on the icons!

Pure.Magic

Aw!

Have you tried making icons or any kind of fanart, Szilvia?

happy mom

I'd like to try, but no, I haven't...I don't think I have the necessary program for it. I do play around with my digital photos sometimes, but that's not quite the same thing.

Pure.Magic

Im sure if you manage to get your hands on the program, you'll figure out what to do. One just needs to be really patient with it.

Szilvia - you could play around with the digital photo's of SP you took and use those

happy mom

I've not attempted to crop a photo to 100x100 before, but maybe I'll look into that if I get the chance, before the deadline...

Pure.Magic

Thanks a lot, Lais. Those are lovely.

Im done with mine too.

Chase.This.Light

Oh those are all great.

Lalis - I love 3 and 4
V - I love 4.

*-LaLis-*

No problem. Sorry I just couldn't find time to make new icons

Chase.This.Light

LaLis - I know on other boards people have used icons they've made before too, doesn't mean you don't care. Just that the icons you made before are great

Pure.Magic

Aw, thats perfectly fine. I love these, though you didnt include my favourite Gary icon.

Thanks, Karen.
