Discussion Thread
Discuss anything to do with the PC Icontest here, I guess XD
|
I'm glad we got so many entries on the first try. Good luck collecting all that into one post/poll. xD
|
I like this IotW idea. I think it's pretty cool, Dukey.
|
It wasn't really mine, there's countless Icontests on LiveJournal, and since we've gotten everyone addicted to icons we might as well have one on PC.
|
Making icons is orgasmic.
Nough said. |
I didn't even know that they had Icontests on Livejournal.
|
... are you for serious? They're EVERYWHERE
|
Yep; never really checked Livejournal out, lol.
By the way what happened to your pretty, blue name? |

For almost every anime, theres an icontest for it XD |

Since I never been on Live Journal, I just thought PC was the only place to have Icontests. I need to surf more.
|
Livejournal is the icontest home.
And the h-staff eated it. |
The icons in this weeks voting are just... Good.

I agree with you, Mage. This weeks entries are just...good.
|
I can imagine them just eating it.
With knives and forks, eating the letters one by one. Sorry, I'm making it worse huh? XD |
Quote:
That's just... Weird when you picture it in your head. |
I'm supposing this will work in the same fashion as the SotW here... as soon as one finishes and the poll is up, the next one starts?
|
lol I'm pretty over it now.
I think entries this week were so "good" (my view of good is different from others obviously) because it's freestyle... as the themes get more specific the entries will be more scarce but probably better. Or worse. idk. |
The idea of finally achieving icon contests of the week here at the community makes me think, "it's about time." I'm really liking the idea of it right now and like said, the entries this week are all really nice in their own way. It'll be hard to vote this week that's for sure.
I think I may partake in this more than SOTW as I prefer making icons > banners, but I know it'll be something enjoyable this time around. |
Bah Bah Bah forget the contst on livejournal and talk about something more interesting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Uhh, it's a thread talking about icons... wtf else is there to talk about besides icontests??
|
If only you were still a mod right now CME XD
Rentoraa don't spam the thread, m'kay? Yeah, Freestyle was just to get people interested in it and stuff. I'll probably make it a specific anime/manga or something next week. Yeah I'm gonna be greedy for a while and choose the themes XD |

I can't really be taking ideas from anyone, if I make exceptions with you, I make exceptions with everyone.

You power loving skank. ;_;
|
@ CME: Put it this way, at least now that you're boldness was eaten, you are free from the staff's wrath. You now have more time for yourself and other things to do rather than just keeping up with the DPPt all the time. However, you were a rock there, so without you it may have a little slack at times.
@ Dukey: Ha Ha, as long as the themes are nice or at least mildly interesting to most, then I say go all out with it. I wouldn't mind as long as it doesn't turn into a phail. XD Keep this up and it'll eventually turn out smooth after awhile. |
lol it definitely is relaxing. No more dealing with noobs! \o/
I've been pretty bad with icontests on LJ mainly cause their themes suck half the time... so Dukey don't fail me/us! ;_; |
It's funny because now you are pretty much free to just unleash your rage without concequences XD
I'll post them on LJ when.. I have more :3 |
I've been having a real urge lately to icon from game screen caps... not just FMV ones but actually battle/etc shots as well.
unnffff I had something really funny and clever to say but it's not appropriate. :( |
Wait, explain this again...Icons from say battle shots of DPPt battles you mean?
It would have been interesting enough to hear what you might have had to say... |
Err, no I think she means more like, RPG style games. <A<;
Pokemon doesn't really have any FMV's. D| |
LMFAO BATTLE SHOTS OF DPPT
I ROFLED SO HARD |
Quote:

Quote:
Pokemon battle scene icons.. pee eff eff tee. |
Like if they had Stadium video during the anime... oh lawd
|
Pokemon icons are ftw.
Don't deny. [/shot] |
Wow...talk about shame...just simple shame :(
Anyhow, I see you've already brought it up on a thread, so I guess it is worth a look. |
I'm still cackling about the battle shots of DPPt
|
We should all totally make themes of DPPt Battle Shots.
|
That'd be pretty strange.
|
l smell next week's Icontest theme.
|
I would probably rofl, then be sad at my good times there. :(
|
If I ever see this idea as an icon theme [DPPt Battles], that will actually make me laugh out loud so much. I might be like CME over there rolling on the floor, lol.
However, my only question is that...When will voting begin for the Icontest #1? |
After a week, of submissions, I'm guessing. Like SOTW.
|
Quote:
However, like said, when the competitions gets to be more specific I'm sure there will be a bit less entries and maybe it might be all the more easier to vote. As I think about it, I'm all for the DPPt battle icons, rofl! |
If DPPt battle shots was the next theme, that would make my life
|
The amount of entries will probably decrease with different themes, but I still think this will get more entries than your average SOTW. No matter how crazy the theme, icons are still fairly easy to put together and aren't nearly as time consuming as tags.
|
I agree Gummy.
I think we should have a Megan Fox theme. |
The main reason why I really slowed down on signature banners was because the amount of time they might take. Adding new layers, situating the text, color, etc. Not to mention it is a larger space to work with and more to fill. However, with icons it is more so getting a nice shot of the image or perspective and playing around with it a bit. So, I definitely agree, for those who enjoy icons there may just be a bit more entries than the average SOTW competition we have.
When I actually think about DPPt Battle icons, I picture them actually looking quite nice surprisingly, lol. Who wants to bet more so the Uber or OU tier may be shown in battle for the icons though. XD |
... Really? The smaller space is exactly why I hate icons. xD;
It's so much harder to put your own touch to it. <A<; But I suck at icons, so rly. :P |
Loki, please don't lie to me, XD. You are one of those known to make great icons just like CME, Dukey, and Gummy is as well. Compared to at least you, I'm way at the bottom. :[
However, the small space can sometimes be hard to work with for some, I find that the case for me as well. Low quality images just makes it worse as well because it ends up becoming somewhat distorted. Neverthless, what I enjoy about banners is that you can really be creative with it. So, both icons and signature banners have their wins and losses [like everything else]. |
Quote:
|
lol hopefully my icon gets some votes. :(
|
cme totally went for the underwear shot :3
|
Okay voting is up guys, I'll make a new entry thread in a second.
|
Time to bust out the old screencaps!
|
Pokemon battle shots ftw.
Can't wait to see them, lol. I'm in the mood for a good laugh. xD |
This will be a hard vote for me, as like I've said there were a lot of good entires. Though, there were a few at first that I saw that may have caught my attention. I also see that the second test is up, but I haven't checked the theme as yet. So, this will be interesting. :)
@ Gummy, I did make those icons I am currently using. Thank you for the compliment as I take it in with appreciation. EDIT: Pokémon theme for the win, and battle shots too, lol. Nice choice for the second theme with Icons, it fits in perfectly. |
It was between Dukey, Gummy, and Loki for me. Loki won though since I liked how she used the black in the icon. Dukey's and Gummy's seemed a little too bright for me.
@ Let's Get Lost Together.: You still have to use that Darth Vader balloon I gave you. xD |
I for one am actually considering doing a battle scene XD
|

|
Don't forget to make voting public on the next poll, Dukey.
|
I've gotten one icon finished for the second contest yesterday when it came up, but I'm looking for better renders to see if I can do something a bit better than what I have now.
As for voting, I think I know who I'm going to choose. Although, like Gummy said, don't forget to set votes to public. Battle scenes, I wouldn't be surprised to see any of that in the new theme idea. CME might be the first to take it down with pride, XD. Unless, someone else beats it to her. |
if anyone else steals my idea I'm going to cry.
|
make cme cry and then we all cry.
Btw, me thinks we should get an emblem organized? |
Dukey, you could make the emblem since the emblem is pretty much an icon. >___>
Make it sexy and have it say "IoTW" then underneath it "credit to everyone in the discussion thread, especially JD". |
Quote:
I just may make you cry if I enter :P ---------------- Listening to: Little Brother - Good Clothes via FoxyTunes |
Quote:
|
Okay then.
Either way you still should put the credit underneath it, lol. |
Icontest would be a better title for the icon as the name of the competition is Icontest and not IoTW. I agree with JD though, Dukey you should make the Emblem since you started it. Unless, you want to have a small competition right here to have multiple people make the emblem and people choose the one they think looks best.
CME, I won't make you cry as I've gotten a different Pokémon style to go with. XD |
Quote:
|
That's exactly what I was just thinking, then of course it'll be resized to 80x80.
Or I can make it, it's up to you guys really XD |
I would ask the h-staff to make an emblem buuuuuuuut...
|
Guys people who haven't voted in Icontest #1, go vote now, since I seriously cbf'd making a sudden death thread. I might just make cme & I joint winners, but I suppose Loki still has a chance for now.
Gonna go make my Icontest 2 entry now :P |
lol I just realized my idea for this icontest looks bad on so many levels, so back to trolling for screencaps :(
|
Yay for terrible entries, cme? XD
All my stuff looked pretty eww so I chose the lest eww? Edit: Oh gawd this is gonna sound really suss but it seems someone voted me at the last second? I didn't do eeeet, I voted cme ;; |
Woah, that week went by fast. O_O
I really wanted to enter. |
Holy crap where did this week go-
Oh I was on vacation. D: [/shot kill'd] |
I'm liking the entries for this week; they're pretty good.
For once, I'll have trouble voting for this stuff. Quote:
|
Vegas, bby. <3
And I'm gonna throw in a little perk for the winner of this week's IotW: Not only will the winner have their emblem used as the winner's emblem from now on, but I'll throw in a Helping Hand emblem in the package. Good luck~ |
Quote:
Although helping hand is a great emblem too. <3 |
The problem with the emblem maker is that the description kind of mentions /multiple/ emblems, and this is just one, soooo, the winner is sort of just helping out. :B
|
I just posted my entry.
I like it. xD |
Omigod.
Everyone vote Mage and just see if they accept it as an emblem XD Oh yay a twist Loki. |
These entries are amazing. oAo [/likes rachel, micro, and vvintage's entries]
Whenever I need an emblem made, I know where to go now. xDDDD [/SHOT] Maybe we should re-do the SotW emblem too. D: [/this is going to turn into emblem of the week? rofls] |
XD vVintage's entry is forcing me to redo mine >:
|
All your entries is the reason I didn't bother to start mine ;_;
|
Quote:
And also the fact that I'm done making emblems for awhile. <A<;;; |
I'm scared to see who wins this week's contest. They're all awesome. :A
|
Well voting is up, and so is the Icontest #4 entry thread.
|
Chibi's is really nice if you ask me :] I'll take part in the next competition ;)
I'll have a go at the Manga competition tommorow :] |
O.M.G.
<3 Josephine for voting for me, lol |
Dukey, get your butt in gear or make someone else host this thing. <________<
|
Okay so.. it seems I kinda forgot about IOTW for a while.
I'll do IOTW #5 on Monday, any theme suggestions? |
Final Fantasy! Final Fantasy!
|
Numbers, that's what I say.
|

Im with that 8D slash didnt i win the last one? o: |
Rawr they're not uploading the effing emblem. DDD:<
*kicks higher staff* |
I think my mini Joker would have stood a chance in the next one, but sadly we can't use premade icons. :<

Quote:
I saw that entry and went, "Well, glad I didn't waste my time. D:" We should ban vVintage from entering. xDDD Oh and, pinkpather is disqualified for voting for themselves. ;< |
