I'm sorry for the big delay, but rl has kept me busy, plus, there were some ties that seemed to be unbreakable.

I'd be forever thankful if a few more people would go vote HERE.

Watch out, different voting rules apply! ;)

rules.
+ You vote for TWO lesser quality icons (one icon out of each part) .
+ You have to vote based on the quality of the icons and not on your personal preference like: The font looks weird. I don't like the style. The icon looks boring...
+ Comment with reasons that might help icon makers to improve their skills like: The texture is too overpowering/icon is too dark (WHY?) The icon is oversharpened/blurry (WHERE?) etc. (more voting tips) Try to be as specific as you can (COMPLETE SENTENCES!).
+ You also have to vote for TWO favorite icons (one icon out of each part) (no explanation needed, but encouraged).
+ Don't vote for yourself.
+ Comments will be screened.

+ Please use this voting form by replacing the #00 with the actual icon number:
<strong>LESSER QUALITY ICONS</strong> part one - #00 (- 1 point): Explanation needed. part two - #00 (- 1 point): Explanation needed. <strong>FAVORITE ICONS</strong> part one - #00 (+ 1 point): No explanation needed, but encouraged. part two - #00 (+ 1 point): No explanation needed, but encouraged.
(Negative and positive votes will be tallied.)

Voting results will be up on Saturday/Sunday (depending on the amount of votes).

The following members still need to enter the FIFTH CHALLENGE (2 icons per person)!
Icons are due TOMORROW, November 4th, so that I can post the voting on Thursday.
SKIPS CAN'T BE USED ANYMORE, SINCE THE NEXT CHAL IS ALREADY GOING TO BE THE FINAL CHAL.
So, please try to enter in time, otherwise I might extend the chal for 1-2 days because I want everybody to enter.
