RESULTS FROM ROUND THREE:
WINNER:

Belonged to: Rachael (digital.fragrance)

LOSER:

Belonged to ME! Why else would I say loser? I'm not that mean. Except on tuesdays. I made a crappy icon on purpose though. I'm finding less and less time to be on here and finding myself with my nose in my damn AP US History book. So. I'm still going to run it and all but, I'm just not going to be participating. I know that makes like no sense at all, but, it did it my head...


THE THEME: To create an icon with your favorite quote on it. Meaning, this is a strictly text round. You can have a fancy background, such as a texture or whatever, but It CAN NOT have a picture of a person. If you quote deals with an orange, then by God slap a picture of an orange on there. I want it to where you don't use a picture of a human.
OTHER STUFF: Icons are to be 100x100, NO ANIMATION OF ANY SORTS, STRICTLY TEXT (+stock picture of whatever deals with your quote).


Deadline: Next Saturday ( Extra long, I know..but less and less people are submitting and I really want to give people ample time to get everything done. I know its just an icon but I've found myself working on an icon for like an hour. Playing around with colouring is fun, what can I say? )

THE PARTICIPANTS
Kaycee (kayceeisms) Dropped out due to too many IRL disturbances
Reili (fishcake-y)
Rachael (digital.fragrance)
Mona (mona lisa)
Kara (StanleyThePanda)
Beach (just another teenage dirtbag) Eliminated in round 1.
Ryan (moorepocket*)
Matt (ZapatoDelFuego)
Kristina (Sherlock.) Eliminated in round 3
Trish (soEXCLUSIVE)
Michelle (insomniac)
Tina (tic tac)



God. Someone please tell me if this doesn't make ANY sense at all. I can explain it. I'm being crazy. Again.

haha thats what I did on the last round.
Anyways, this sounds interesting, butttt.. I dont have a favorite quote. sad.gif
Oh well, I am off to find a good one I suppose.

Kristina, Why not just eliminate yourself, instead of making a not-so-good icon? hahaha

Yes yes.

CRAP.


Well.

Would ya'll like to say a sentence or something talking about why you choose this quote, where its from and whatever? I think that would work well.

lol I meant that as a joke meaning i'm a horrible mean person on Tuesdays. Every other day of the week i'm nice.

I was being stupid.


Kara- A description isn't necessary. I just think it may help with people and their understanding of why you chose that quote.

Rachael- Please, PM me an explaination if you would like it up there.
