highlanderNews for hl_stills. Contest 27:Connor is over and it was a huge success. We received some great new Connor MacLeod icons. You can find the winners here . Something really strange happened while we were voting, though, and we can't figure it out. The post announcing the contest with the screencaps has simply vanished . None of the mods deleted it and it is just gone . Anyone have a clue?
On to Challenge 28: Valentine's Day Special .
So, after a bit of a pow wow and after considering what day falls on next Monday, the Mods have selected the following theme: "Valentine's Day Special". But, to make it interesting, the real challenge this time is that we're going to ask you to take two separate images and combine/blend them into one.
EDIT: just to clarify, we're asking you to blend two of the characters in the images provided into one icon.
Below the cut, you'll find a variety of images of numerous characters for your perusal. Please use only these images. However, feel free to use any textures, text et al that you'd like, but only the base images should be used for the icons themselves. Up to five icons per artist are welcome!
The challenge ends at 09:00 AM GMT (04:00 a.m. EST in North America), Monday 21 February 2011. Entries will be up shortly thereafter and voting will run for two days, with voting ending at 09:00 AM GMT (04:00 a.m. EST in North America), Wednesday, 23 February 2011.
Now, this started out (in our discussion) being a slash contest. However, we're not technically a slash community and not all our artists are slashers. So it is and it isn't. In fact, it's whatever you want your icon to be. But we picked lots of different screencaps for you to choose from and I hope everyone will have a lot of fun making your gen, het and/or slash icons.
