100fandoms challenge

[tinny]

Do you want to join me in a challenge? 100fandoms is actually a fic community, but I immediately thought of doing it for icons.

This is not an "official" icontalking activity, but a challenge I came up with in the course of Snowflake. I just thought I'd share here, because it sounds fun:

Make 100 icons in 100 different fandoms, following 100 one-word prompts.

If you want to make it extra-challenging, make those 100 icons within a year. (The fic challenge has no time limit, but I think icons are easier.) I took the fic prompts table from 100fandoms, but it's not identical! I made a few changes to make it better suitable for icons.

Here is the prompts table:

I'm definitely doing this, and I am counting all the icons I'm making in 2019 towards this challenge. (I already have ten. Woot!)

Who else likes this idea?

Cool; I'm going to start a discussion post then. *g*

Hmm, I think I might use floral textures. I don't think I've used them much (or at all) and it might be interesting to use floral imaging in the icons. Thanks!

Edit: Is there a lag between posting an entry and it appearing in the moderation queue? Because it's been more than five minutes and I can't find the entry to approve it. *is confused*

Edit #2: Of course, the second I ask, I get the notification. *sigh*

Hmm.... apparently there are separate permissions for moderating and administrating, and you didn't have the Moderator checkbox checked.

I just checked all the boxes for you now, so your entries won't have to go through the moderation queue at all, and you can moderate other people's entries, too.

I usually give everyone I know, i.e. the makers who regularly participate here, permission to post unmoderated once they make a post. We're a nice bunch and I don't feel like hobbling conversation. (But I have had a few posts from random people asking random stuff, so I never removed the moderation, either.)

[seraphina_snape]

Good to know - I was sort of poking around a bit but couldn't find the problem. So I figured it just needed a few minutes to show up in the queue or whatever. But I guess it's sorted out now. *g*

[tinny]

also, do you want some floral textures?

(I think some of them didn't upload correctly, I hope you can still see the gallery. The icon-sized ones have the maker credit in the description. The rest... are from other sources, I have no idea who made them. *cough some obviously so cough*)

[seraphina_snape]

Oh, cool. Thank you for that link. The images look okay at first glance. I'm going to browse and save a few of them. *g*
