Shounen Awards - 008|RESULTS

special category descriptions:

Any week we get 10+ icons you will be asked to vote for a special category. Axel designates the category based on the most fair choice for all the icons submitted (so if it's a mostly textless turnout it won't be best typography!) Here is a glossary of what each category is looking for:

Best Color: Choose the icon that has the best coloring to you.
Best Crop: Choose the icon that has the most innovative and/or appropriate crop.
Best Typography: Choose the icon in which the text looks the best with the entire composition; has nothing to do with what the text actually says.
Best Adaptation: Choose the icon that best represents either the lyrical or word/challenge theme.
Best Composition: Choose the icon that has the best overall look, taking color, text (if applicable), and crop into account.
Most Emotional: Choose the icon in which the character shows the most emotion (can be any emotion).
Most Creative: Choose the icon in which the maker was most imaginative and did something that was unexpected, but still works.
Best Caption: Not to be confused with best typography, choose the icon in which the words in the caption work best with the image.

Haha, I don't blame you. I usually whip up my icontest icons (a total of 7 different comms) in about two hours... and what takes me the longest is choosing the subjects! The icons themselves are made in like. 5 minutes tops, each. XD

I can't fathom it taking more than 10 min to make an icon.

I would so be all over a 'fucking brutal' version of a LIMS comm, but I think most of the iconners here would take it way too seriously and may get butthurt if we opened one of those... but uh is it going to be animanga, videogames, or everything?

I LIKE CHALLENGES but I'm apparently a rare breed.

Same here, but look at the admin, trying to shut down

flamecup and not even allowing it on his other journaling site(s). Like if you try to start a flamecup on deathnote you get banned or something to that effect, it's like DUDES. IT'S JUST WORDS. GET OVER IT.

I like making fun of the anons. :D Or just being a general doucher to people who are dumb enough to get mad that their pics are being made fun of.

I mean one time I posted a pic of one of my costumes on /cgl/ and they tried to rip me a new asshole because it wasn't omg perfect but I just rolled with it. XD

But yeah jimmy totally hates it when people are bawwww mean to each other of something I don't know what the point is, you should let people vent their frustrations or, in the case of others, make fun of people just to get the rise out of them because INTERNETS IS SRS BSNS to them.

I made a custom layer and imported flexible squares, then used a premade layout by minty_peach @ LJ. :>

I keep wanting to read it as animangavag. :| XD I wonder since the only people who make icons here pretty much make animanga/vg icons you might as well just call it LIMS..?
