    Very cool new thread, I love the title as well. :cool:

    ThrawnRocks: Cool update, very good job. My favs are the Rebel, the Stormies, tall Cade, the Hat and Rav.
    Wiggins: Good job, the "Prophet of the Dark Side" would be my fav. [face_mischief]
    Starwalker: A nice update as well. I like the Lukes

    It's generally cool to see everyone's getting better. And the next vote's gonna be both big and tough. [face_peace]

    Thanks, guys :)

    Corran_Fett: Uh oh. :p That isn't my favorite of your update (I prefer the tall Luke and all of the Cades) but I'll try to remember to vote for that one to keep you around :p
    Reynar_Tedros: Haha. Nice :p

    It isn't really your fault. The problem is with the source image, so it takes me a second with all the strips of white and black to make out what it is :p

    Thanks Starwalker.

    I hope the Ben B. Icon gets chosen.

    Now all we need is one of Dennis.

    Greetings all, here are a few updates for the new week - I had college graduation stuff this weekend so I wasn't around as much as I'd hoped. 8-}


    Results from the Mara voting are in, and this was the image that won out. I'm considering using another format as an additional one for the gallery but will have to mull that over a bit since I'm trying to avoid duplication...many thanks to y'all for being willing to put it up for a vote and such. Says a lot about this little icon community!

    New vote is up - yes there are many more in the queue. :p

    Uploads for GL's birthday and a few other things will be done this week. Have a good one!

    [face_dancing] That's my version, yeehaa! :p Thanks a lot to everyone who voted, there were quite good variants of this image up. [:D]


    I do hope so, considering I don't see one of my icons up there. :oops:

    I know you split icons up for different votes, but I still like to ask, just to be on the safe side: did you include my second-last update (from 23-3) in your selection?

    Corran-Fett, don't worry about your updates being in the current vote, I'm still at least five updates ahead of this vote. :p

    BTW, please vote for this one, and this one. :D Of course I'd like all of my icons from this vote to be uploaded, but I can't see that happening. :p

    http://evilkingwiggins.proboards19.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1112422179

    16 new Icons, enjoy. ;)

    that makes me 10 updates ahead... [face_mischief] :p

    Thanks for the Mara/Sacrifice Icon "upgrade."

    Now I can't wait to see the Jan Duursema Mara Jade Skywalker icons come rollin' in. 8-}

    Seriously. :-B

    [face_laugh] Yeah, I wasn't totally serious, anyway, just checking. ;)

    Good update, btw, the wide K'Kruhk kicks ass. :cool:

    [face_mischief] As cool as the artworks in the new Legacy issue are, they aren't so easy to iconize. I made one, but I bet other icon artists will make more of her. ;)

    Corran_Fett, Thanks, I think that of my update the Luke's are my favorite part too though I also like the demonic looking Sidious. I love your tall Luke and the third Cade as I think it does a great job of capturing Cade's brokenness.

    Evil_King_Wiggins, I voted for the Malak since it's the only one in this update. :p

    Request:

    [image=http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v258/grandadmiraljello/th_VaderROTS.png]


    That's the thumbnail view of THIS from the ROTS cover. I'm quite surprised that it's never been made into an icon, because Vader looks awesome.

    I guess nobody had access to a scan, so I went ahead and scanned it. Ignore the quote at the top. :p

    Anyway, I think this would work equally well as a 50x50 or a widescreen icon. It's a stunning composition. I look forward to seeing what you icon artists can do with it! :D

    (remember, use the link I provide and don't click on the thumbnail--it's just there because the actual version of the image is 5megs, and that'll make people sad if they had to load it to view this thread) :p

    EDIT:

    Also, the Star Destroyer from the JCC banner background has fantastic coloration and a good angle, even if it's just a model. It would do fantastically as a 50x50 icon if it was given a background or something. :)

    Page 2 of results from a search for Vader in the Icon section has that particular Vader Icon I believe.

    How embarassing. And after I searched myself to check for it. :p

    Well, then, at any rate--it would look nice as a 50x50. :p

    I know Master Starwalker is working on it, but could anyone please make an Icon of Dennis Murren?

    Starwalker managed to produce a nice one featuring Ben B. that I hope will get chosen, but I think it's a shame that there isn't a single Dennis Murren icon under the cast and crew category.





    And how about this picture? Could anyone make this one into a 30x90, Widescreen icon?

    [image=http://daily.greencine.com/archives/70s-directors.jpg]


    or how about making an Icon out of this?

    My gripe with this new update is why is that icon of Yun on the upload page when there are far better looking versions E_K_W made. Yes I know that icon was made by E_K_W but why that one over his better looking ones.

    Also that Biggs Darklighter with the four votes has a version already uploaded unless you plan on deleting it and replacing it with that one.

    As for the others most look okay but a few just look uninteresting, even a few I've made I'm wondering why they are considered.

    Anyway good job on some of the icons haven't looked at any of the new updates by the iconmakers but will do sometime in the future.
