6.09 Mystery Gift! (Or ??? in the box!)

Hi everyone! I've got another challenge lined up for you, this time a creative one which hopefully will allow you to put your graphics skills to the test or if you're not confident in your graphic skills at least allow you to receive some lovely icons!

This is a very casual little gift exchange where you can get the chance to indulge in receiving icons not only of FF characters but also those from other fandoms! Sound good? Yay? Nay? Okay?



Now you don't actually have to create icons in order to receive them but it is encouraged (and nets a higher point reward) and there is a small bonus if you offer to pitch hit. You'll get two weeks to make 10 icons after receiving your prompts which hopefully will be enough time to create something but if it isn't and you won't be able to make the deadline PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP.

So with that in mind, here's how this will play out:


1. Pick five final fantasies or specific characters that you'd like to receive icons of:

Almost exactly as it says on the tin - pick five character or pairings from FF that you'd like icons of, list them in the form below and be sure to list which title they're from to make things easier for the fillers. (You can also include images you're fond of or provide references in case the subject is obscure)

(Toffee's examples)
#1 Princess Garnet Til Alexandros XVII (IX)
#2 Hope Estheim (XIII)
#3 Ultros (VI)
#4 Edward Chris Von Muir (IV)
#5 Nine (Type-0)


2. Then we come to the request for 5 characters or pairings from different fandoms:

Next pick 5 different characters/pairings from 5 different fandoms that AREN'T final fantasy (Kingdom Hearts can be counted here if you wish) and list them in your comment. Be sure to include links to images and/or references so the filler has something to work with. Whilst the filler doesn't have to go with the images provided, it can still prove useful as it will give them a better idea about what you'd like.

(Toffee's examples)
#1: Anastasia 'Anya' from 'Anastasia' (1997) ref1, ref2, ref3, ref4, ref5, ref6, ref7 and ref8.
#2: Billy Bigaloe/Julie Jordan from 'Carousel' (1956) ref1, ref2, ref3, ref4, ref5 and ref6
#3: Anything from 'Some Like it Hot' (1959) or Singin' In the Rain (1952) SLH ref1, SLH ref2, SLH ref3, SLH ref4, SLH ref5, SLH ref6 and SLH ref7. SIR ref1, SIR ref2, SIR ref3, SIR ref4, SIR ref5, SIR ref6, SIR ref7, SIR ref8 and SIR ref9
#4: Disney Ducks (comics or animation) ref1, ref2, ref3, ref4, ref5, ref6, ref7, ref8, ref9 and ref10
#5: Touma/Sendou from Double Call (manga or drama CDs) ref1, ref2, ref3, ref4 and ref5.



3. Post, create and waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittt...:

Once you've filled out the form with all the details, simply post it as a comment and wait for us to assign prompts via PM!

No one will be given all 10 prompts belonging to one particular person as the prompts will be divided and mixed up so that everyone will receive a variety of icons from different people and won't have to worry about all their icons going to just one individual. (Who your prompters are will be kept a secret from you (unless they happen to be blatantly obvious with their choices like moi) until the unveiling when everyone will receive their 10 icons along with the credits of those who crafted them.)

Once you've received your 10 prompts you have 2 weeks to try making the icons. (Once all the prompts have gone out I will put up a collection post with screened comments where you can distribute your completed icons.) If you're not going to be able to meet the deadline, let me know in advance so I can arrange a pitch hit for you! :)


4. Come back to find.......PAYOFF!!!!:

Once the deadline passes and all the icons are finished (everyone will get 10 icons even if I have to pitch every hit that...errr....hit...something...um...yeah...all I know about baseball is from a yaoi series and my mind is generally preoccupied with fourth base so I'm not all that great with the metaphors...) I'll unveil them in personalized batches for each recipient along with the credits in one big happy post!


(Hopefully the end results and accompanying post will be a whole lot flashier than these examples!)






SO WITH ALL THAT IN MIND, DON'T DELAY, FILL OUT THE FORM TODAY!!!






POINTS:
There's a total of 60 possible points up for grabs this time around!

+5 for participating/prompting
+40 points for making 10 icons
+15 points for pitch hitting

(NOTE: It's 4 points per icon so if you've only delivered a certain amount you'll receive the points based on how many you submitted - pitch hitters get 15 points regardless of the number of extra icons they make)

DEADLINE (to make prompts): FRIDAY 5TH JULY 11:59PM EDT (4:59 PM BST)


Good luck everyone and have fun~! ♥♥♥
