Round 46: All about us-Inspo & sign-up post!

[abyss_valkyrie]

Hey,everyone. Welcome to Round 46, our final round for 2022 which will run well into 2023. :D Thank you for the great materials to choose from to make icons.

Please read the rules as they are different from our usual rounds.

• Create a set of a minimum of 10 icons and a maximum of 20 icons.
• The challenge is to use ONLY the materials from the collection under the cut and create icons.You CAN use your own screencaps too. In no way does that restrict you as you will find textures, colour palettes, themes, words, screencaps and music videos to choose from so you can still use your own screencaps and fandoms.
• Comment on this entry to sign up.
• You don't have to sign up, but some people enjoy the challenge of sticking to the theme (plus it helps us mods know how many people still need to post before we start the voting).
• Post your icons either in your graphics community or in this community, with a 3-icon preview here followed by either a fake cut (link) or real cut to the rest of your set.
• In your post here, please use the subject "Round 46: All about us," and tag your post with "Round: 46" and "user: (username)" -- If there isn't a tag for your musername yet, please comment on this post, and one of the mods will create one for you and reply to your comment when done.
• For this round you may use stock images to make icons apart from fandom (television, movie, celebrities, anime, manga, graphic novels, etc.) Again, please comment with any questions.
• The deadline is now 20th January, 2023.

I would love to sign up! :D

[abyss_valkyrie]

WONDERFUL!

[luminousdaze]

Awesome collection! But it looks like all my screen caps that you have are only thumbnails. I don't think people will like to use them at that size. Would you like me to get you the full size links?

[abyss_valkyrie]

Heyyy!I didn't realize they were small!Yes please,links of the full size would be great.

[luminousdaze]

Okay, sorry about that. I made a new comment on the collection post with three different kinds of links and the medium thumbnail previews again.
I think the last one of Doctor Who you must have picked from the album, I only had one Doctor cap when I suggested the caps. :)

[abyss_valkyrie]

AHHHH!!I think I first picked all the caps in the album but then realised that you said it was okay to cut some.(I could not cut out the Doctor, my hands simply didn't allow it to happen). Ooops?!

I'll check on the links,thank you!

[luminousdaze]

Aw, I know how it is! :) I had images in that album from other challenges, like old next picture ones. I uploaded a dozen caps for this challenge.

Thank you for assembling the inspiration items, too! I forgot to say that before.

[tinny]

oops i completely missed that this round is already running. i'm signing up!

[abyss_valkyrie]

AHHHH!Hey there.no worries. Adding you now.

[tinny]

Okay, I overlooked that in the rules for this round: "only resources from the inspo post", does that mean I can't use my own screencaps but have to use the provided ones (or maybe caps from the music video)?

[abyss_valkyrie]

Heyyy!No no,you can absolutely use your screencaps but like the icon should use a texture,colour palette,theme or be word inspired from what's given.

[tinny]

Okay, I think it already said that in the rules, but I stopped reading at ONLY. :DD

Thanks for clarifying! <3

[tinny]

I won't be able to make it until tomorrow. I only have 4 icons so far. Is there any chance of an extension?

[abyss_valkyrie]

Hey there!Absolutely okay with an extension. Would 4-5 days work for you?

[tinny]

I hope so! Thank you so much! <3

[ella_rose88]

I'm signing up! (PS: I'm excited to start make icons again seeing as its been nearly a year since I did so!).

[abyss_valkyrie]

YAYYY!Wonderful to be seeing you active again. :D

[ella_rose88]

FYI I need a username tag please :)

[abyss_valkyrie]

Thanks for the reminder. :)

[ella_rose88]

No worries:)

[niinza]

Want to get back into icon making. Sign me up! :)

[abyss_valkyrie]

Sweet!!

[luminousdaze]

I'd like to sign up, please!

But one question, for those who supplied things, are we allowed to use some of our own items?

Also, if I don't post in time, please go on without me. I think I may have technical problems on the horizon when I try to make changes to my ancient laptop soon.

[abyss_valkyrie]

Hey!!Absolutely use your own items!:D
And don't worry,we can always extend the deadline if one or two people need more time or if it's a matter of 1-2 days. :)

[luminousdaze]

Thank you!

[abyss_valkyrie]

Hey!just wanted to remind you that round 46 is ending tomorrow,so there's like around 24 hours-ish?!

[luminousdaze]

I'm sorry, I'm not going to make it in. Thanks!
Edit: If it's closing at the end of the day in my time zone, I still may make it. But if I don't post please go on without me.

[abyss_valkyrie]

Hey there, I can wait until the end of the day and then post the voting and if in case your icons aren't in, I'll go ahead. *fingers crossed for your icons!*

[luminousdaze]

Hi! It's you okay if you must go on. I don't think I'm going to manage. It's five to midnight here. I have four icons done.

For once, I made a period drama one though, with your cap,so you have to see it! :D

[luminousdaze]

I've completed them I'll post them to the comm really soon (unless you say otherwise). Thank you for the extension. :)

[littlemissnovella]

I would love to sign up!

[abyss_valkyrie]

Wonderful!I'll be putting up a new post with the new deadline-20th January. :)

[fallleaves]

Can I still sign up?

[abyss_valkyrie]

Hey!This round is ending tomorrow, 20th Jan so you'd have around 24 hours I guess. If you're able to make it,I'd love to see your icons.In case you can't, do return for the next round. <3
