I've tasted blood (no pun intended)! Making icons is kind of addictive, as my aching neck could tell you.
So I decided to participate here:



There's still the chance to

, but only for a few hours (11 pm ET), and everyone gets a skip point, so you could still participate even if you hadn't an icon for the first challenge!

There's a really, really strong competition, so I won't last long, but that's okay. I just want to take the challenge to do something with pics I haven't chosen myself and make something with it.

Not only is icon/banner making addictive, it can be very relaxing.

Yes, it is. It was my take-my-mind-off thing to go during these last weeks that were otherwise very stressful!

And it's a heck of a way to hone one's skill for procrastination and avoidance of other stuff to a fine art (dishes, laundry, vacuuming, who needs any of it? I've got a banner to finish *lol*)

The fact that you've found this addictive means your artistry will surely grow by leaps and bounds - and you're off to an excellent start!

This is my first time participating in a lims/last icon standing type of comm. The idea of offering constructive criticism and feedback is right up my alley, and yet I'm finding it harder to vote than I anticipated!

Heh!

I'm all for constructive criticism. That's how we learn to get better. Except I'm never so sure I find the right words to not just make it sound like criticism. Without the constructive part, and I'm terribly afraid to accidentally hurt someone's feelings. Which would be a nightmare for me. Oh well.

Also, it's not so easy to give advice if you're a beginner like I am. I just don't know enough about it yet...
But it's very exciting, and I'm really looking forward to the next challenge. I'm curious if I even will have any idea how to meet the conditions...(Like - anything with a circle? I'm out. :D)

Thanks for the praise, again! *still blushes*
