Hey, there; hi, there; ho, there! I hope you all are well and that you had a great Star Wars Day (May the 4th) if you enjoy that fandom!

Welcome to Challenge 38! This is another inspirational challenge, but a little bit more reality based, so some may find it more challenging--some may not.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: Though you're welcome and even encouraged to incorporate stock in as many icons as you wish, please keep all icons fandom related, as this is a fandom icon community. (NOTE: Fandoms can include things such as Rubenesque art, Victorian lamps, Steampunk, boy bands, golden oldies, etc.; but for the purpose of this community please limit your fandoms to tv, film, musicians, and graphic novels.) Please help us all a bit by adding a tag to your post with your fandom, following the pattern of the already existing tags. Thanks! If you have any questions, please feel free to reply to this entry, and I will get back to you as soon as I possibly can!

THEME

This month we take our inspiration from the old adage, "April showers bring may flowers." You may include the "April showers" in your icons if you wish, but I'm only including the floral part of the saying in the inspiration part of this post because--well, I don't know about you, but I'm about ready for some cheering up!

As (almost) always, the below inspirational backgrounds/icons/palettes/textures are for that only: inspiration. You are not required to use them at all, but you're certainly welcome to use the backgrounds, palettes, and textures! (Please do not use the icons for anything other than springboards for your own ideas.)

( Inspiration Icons, Images, and Palettes [EXTREMELY IMAGE INTENSIVE] )

Signups will be open to the end of this round, which will be 00:00 EDT (GMT -4:00), June 1, 2021.
You don't have to sign up, but some people enjoy the challenge of sticking to their theme.
Post your icons either in your graphics comm or a post at this community. If you post at your graphics comm, make a post here also and link to your comm with 3 icons as a preview. Please keep a graphics comm post unlocked until voting is complete for the challenge.
Please include the template when posting in the comm. It makes it easier for us to post voting. (You only need to paste each of your links between the corresponding quotes and remove the one space here->/ textarea)

Hello,everybody! Welcome to Round 37. This is an inspirational challenge.
IMPORTANT: Since this is a fandom community, please icon fandoms only. You can incorporate stock into the icons but it must be primarily a fandom centered icon.If you have any questions,please ask below. :)

THEME
This month we are taking inspiration from 10 book covers. You can create icons based on one cover, a few or all 10! Whether it is by using a similar font, style, image, colours or the content of the book etc.-everything is fair game BUT please note that the book covers themselves cannot be cropped into icons. Use one book cover as inspo per icon ie. do not combine two different covers into one icon.

Hello,everyone! For this round nondenomifan is busy so I'll be modding this session.If anyone wants to pitch in as co-mod for putting up reminders & such,feel free to comment here and let me know. :)

THEME

You might have guessed from the name that this round will focus on Non-English movies,shows,games etc. Meaning, that the original language of the show should not be English. Some examples are Sailor Moon(Japanese),Dark(German), Money Heist(Spanish), Sacred Games(Indian) and so on. However, if you don't want to icon Non-English media, then use the given palettes and/or fonts to inspire you to icon English media.

You are allowed to mix and match for this challenge, so there's no set rule that all 10 icons must be Foreign or English. If you have any questions, feel free to ask below.

There are fonts,colour palettes and icons under the cut to inspire you.

1. Sign ups will be open to the end of this round, which will be the 30th November,2020.
