Contest Info:

Who: Anyone who wants to enter. You do not have to be a watcher or know me in order to enter.
What: A contest to design the logo/ icon for my spare account: ~HannibalHasmat
When: The contest starts January 31 and runs until February 31

What to do:
Make an icon (remember, it has to be 50x50 pixels) to be used as my icon for my spare account. You can create a logo to represent the name "HannibalHasmat" or just do something that seems to fit the name well enough.

Rules:
-You may enter as many times as possible, but keep in mind: entering one or two quality entries will give you a better chance of winning then entering 15 crappy, quick entries.
-The icon cannot have anything to do with fanart.
-By entering this contest, you are giving me permission to use the icon for my account.

Ideas:
-Something that incorporates the biohazard symbol
-something with the 'radiation' symbol
-black/yellow color scheme
-Playing around with fonts that would look good
-Making use of the HH as a possible logo

Prizes:
-1st: A full color picture and a 1 month journal feature. Also, I will use the winning icon on my other account.
-2nd: A lineart and a 1 week journal feature
-3rd: A sketch and 1 day journal feature

I will add more prizes if more people enter (more PEOPLE, not more entries themselves, so tell your friends about it!)

If you have any questions, just ask!


-----------------------------------------
First of all: No, the new account will NOT be my main account. I will still be just as active on this account as I am now. Nothing on this account will change. The purpose of my new account will be to put up art that is NOT fanart. So that means my traditional portraits, paintings, ceramics, photographs etc. I want an account to put up my more "professional" (for lack of better term) art. I'd like an account that I wouldn't mind my family seeing, as well as a few other adults who have asked.

So, point being, if you'd like to watch me on that account as well, it would be much appreciated! It doesn't have anything on it yet, but that'll change.  I haven't yet decided if the art on that account will also be uploaded to this account or not.... suggestions?

so the account is:  ~HannibalHasmat

Also, keep in mind, you can still comment on anything in this journal, not just the newest topic...
------------------
So i was thinking about having a contest for both artists and authors. What I was thinking was putting Naruto (or maybe bleach instead?) characters names in a bucket...... Then each person who wants to enter notes me, and I randomly pull two names out of the bucket for the person. Their entry must include both characters as a main focus of the fanart/fanfic, but can include other canon characters in the background...

I figured this contest would be interesting and cause people to be creative with their characters and possibly draw people they normally would not have....

Is this something that you all would be interested in? And as always, I want to put emphasis on the fact that level of skill would not matter as much as creativity (the idea) and effort....

So, comments, suggestions, questions, etc?

Just a note to myself so I don't forget anything. If I owe you something and missed it on the list, please comment and say something, don't be shy.
