I chose this, as I liked how Dead Ringer had used all the guys in the shot, and also used an interesting method with the placement of the text which I really liked.

Congratulations everyone.

If this is a LIMS challenge, shouldn't 1 or 2 icon makers be eliminated every time?

Ah, Yes, I forgot about the name.

Originally I was going to do it as a LIMS but then changed my mind.
I should probably change the name, lol.

Holy shit, the icons submitted were good. And I totally missed seeing them before it was voted on.
But the thing is, the not telling the names thing only works somewhat, since I (and I'm sure a bunch of other people as well) can recognize a lot of these people by their style of icon making. Haha.


I'm definitely doing this next challenge.

Or could someone draw them?
