If you want to enter into the competition with an icon, you have to post it in the icons section on the site, and of course, PM me with the link and the cattegory.

I have uploaded my icons for the right cathegories and PM:ed you, Daelin, and noticed in the contestant list that I am not in the list.
I'm telling this to remind you that I wish to join this contest just in case if you have forgotten me.
I also send you a pm with link and section and im not in list either >_<

DaelinOk, let's say 1st of december. Not more, not less. Try to do whatever you can. You can enter to as many categories as you like. Each cattegory has its prizes.

And today is 1st of December, so I think the deadline has come.
And I want to remind Daelin about letting ragingspeedhorn join the contest (add him to the list).
1. Merge Section – Dark Prophet (26p) General Aspect (20p) – I don’t like the fact that it is so blurry. The colors are too faint, but the shading (Blizzard duh) is nice. Pretty good! Implementability (3p) – It has a BTN and DISBTN version. However, it doesn’t have the shading around the borders, the fading from black to color. And as for usefulness, c’mon, as long as that model/skin doesn’t exist, it is not useful at all. Creativity (3p) – Not very creative. I already saw so many hooded characters, such as Illidan and Grom HellScream. I’m not impressed.
2. Item Section – Sentry Ward (20p) General Aspect (12p) – Let’s start with the good things. I like the fact that even though you made a new sentry ward, you didn’t base the icon off the old sentry ward. However, the shading is relatively poor (faint shadowed and lightened). The wood is relatively realistic but the rays of light do not appear as if they are coming from the ward. They are just somewhere in the background. Implementability (5p) – It has a BTN and DISBTN version. Once again, it doesn’t have the shading around the borders but this time it could be used instead of the original sentry ward (though it isn’t as good as the original ) Creativity (3p) – Lacks creativity. You just remade a new Blizzard icon. I can’t really call this creative. You didn’t make an exact replica, so you receive some points for that.
3. Ability Section – Unholy Frenzy (20p) General Aspect (15p) –This time you inspired quite a lot from the original Unholy Frenzy and you even took the spiraling effect from the eyes. I don’t really like this! However, it looks pretty good. The colors are once again too faint, sharp. They look like… crayons (not a lot but has that aura of a crayon). More smudging would’ve helped. Better than Sentry Ward! Implementability (5p) – It has BTN and DISBTN version. It doesn’t have the shading around the borders but it could be used instead of the original Unholy Frenzy (with more shading, it would’ve looked even better than it). Creativity (0p) – Lacks. You made an exact replica of the original.
4. Creep Section - Stonemaul Warchief (34 p) General Aspect (22p) –The colors are pretty nice, the expression of the eye is good, but shading could be better. It is not perfect and not even close to it, but it’s still good. I like it! Implementability (7p) – Has BTN and DISBTN version. Doesn’t have the shading around the borders but it could be used for an ogre hero. Creativity (5p) – Not extremely original (you should’ve chosen something less obvious, maybe a lizard?), but better than a skeleton or doom guard.
5. Free Section – Critter Fish (25p) General Aspect (17p) – Not as good as the ogre. The shading is pretty good, but still looks blurry, mouth pretty plain, and colors a little faint. And the green aura is miplaced. Implementability (4p) – Has BTN and DISBTN versions but doesn’t have shading around the borders. And use it for a fish? I doubt that it would be very useful. Creativity (4p) – Once again, a fish. This is olof’s favorite subject, but I guess it could be yours too. It’s not super original, I expected something better.
II. Ragingspeedhorn
1. Free Section – Beretta General Aspect (13p) – Pretty nice shading, but ruined by resizing => blurred icon. Sorry, but I don’t really like it. Gray icon, so no colors to discuss about. Implementability (5p) – Has BTN and DISBTN versions, I can’t say anything about the shading around the borders since everything is black but I guess it’s ok. However, it has absolutely NO use. Creativity (3p) – Another gun? Blah, I don’t like the idea and I don’t find it original. Some may like it though.
Winners: Dan Van Ohllus – 2nd place for Merge, Creep and Free sections. PM me with spell requests (3).

I suppose the (3) means three spell request. Hmm... I should think about it, the planning for what spells I need (or at leat suggest), since I'm not desperate for needing spells right now.
Too bad that some of the contestants didn't send their icons in time, the more contestants in a competition, the more fun (or challenge) the competition willl be.
Each cattegory has its prizes.
