We have a problem with the winners this week. Crowley mentioned that maybe one of the entries had been posted elsewhere already somewhere on the site. Thats against the rules, as all entries have to be made specifically for the contest being entered, but I haven't been messaged back with an answer as to what user, so i'm postponing the results until I know who it is. I'm asking the person who entered with a pre-made icon to please PM me and be a good sport.

Until I get an answer on this, I'm going to again stress the rules. Only ONE icon per contest should be entered and that icon MUST be made SPECIFICALLY for the contest. In other words, no raiding your old files for an icon that fits the brief of the week.

Since it is Sunday, though, I'm going to post the new contest.

---

Contest #39
Movie Theaters

This week I want your icons to feature something about movie theaters. Not movies, but the actual places you watch them in. It could be popcorn, candy, or anything you normally associate with going to the movies or the movie-watching experience.

Rules
- You may use any effects you want to on your icons.
- You can't share your icons with anyone before the results are announced.
- You can only enter one icon per contest and icons must be made specifically for the contest.
- All entries must be 100px by 100px.
- If your icon doesn't fit the brief properly then it will not be entered.
- PM your entry to me by Friday March 28th 2008.

I think I know who it is, but I have no real proof, so I cant do anything about it.
Ima go digging for evidence, now.

It wasn't who I thought it was.
Now im totally lost.

I'm pretty sure I know who did it,
but I don't want to say anything and be wrong.
I can wait though, and I'm definitely entering the next one.
:]

What if we're all mistaken and there was no person who did it?

Well, i'm asking crowley to find a post where the user actually posted the icon someplace for proof.
If there is none, I have no choice but to continue with the competition.
Even though if it's the icon in question it wont effec the winners.

I have a question for the specifically made for the contest....

After the contest, can you use the icon? I was thinking about entering the last, last contest (the school one) with an icon that I loved, but I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to use it afterwards as my own avatar.

Thanks in advance for answer my question!

[I also think I'm entering this one! Haha. I'm going to have fun!]

Oh, Okay! Thanks.

Darn it, I totally should have posted my other avatar. It would have given all of them a run for their money.

HMM. I've got the perfect two pictures for this competition. I'm having trouble picking which one to use!

I think it might be me who you guys think has posted an icon before.
I've sent a PM to the narrator. explaining it, if it is me.
I'm really sorry for the misunderstanding.
I'm going to trust the narrator.'s judgement on this matter.


Sorted out. :]
