Icontest Do you like to use the art and images in Leaky's galleries to make icons and such? Then we have good news for you! Leaky's Galleries staff, as well as Leaky's Contest staff, would like to announce a new contest here at The Leaky Cauldron beginning May 12th. This contest will be in the form of an icon contest (or icontest) with weeks also devoted to wallpaper and banner competitions, using the great images found in both our Image Galleries and Fan Art Galleries. Each week we will be posting up a challenge featuring images found in either our Image or Fan Art Galleries here at Leaky. First up will be the wonderful art of our Featured Fan Artist, Glockgal. Our second week will be a challenge featuring some of our newest images in our image galleries. (They are so new we don't even have them in yet!) Challenges will run two weeks, with the first week being for submissions, and the second week made up of voting. First, Second, and Third place will be determined by your votes, with weekly guest judges picking their favorites! Winners will receive various prizes such as having their entries up in the galleries or a special signature banner. • May 12 - Phase one: Make an icon featuring the art of our Feature Artist, Glockgal. • May 19 - Submissions due for Phase One, and voting starts • May 26 - Phase Two: Make an icon from newly added Images to our Image Gallery. • June 2 - Submissions due for Phase One, and voting starts All submissions should be emailed to our Leaky Gallery staff at icontest@the-leaky-cauldron.org! Want more information? Check out the Image Gallery and Fan Art Gallery forums as well as Leaky's Contest Page. This is where you can find all the rules and regulations that apply to these contests, such as the fact that you must be over 13 to enter any of Leaky's contests. We look forward to viewing and voting on all your wonderful submissions. -------------------- Click the image for the latest contest and winners.  |

For the new LeakyCon Icontest, do the images we use need to be from the galleries?
I want to make sure.

Anything that you think is related to LeakyCon or Boston would be fine! This post has been edited by KimmyBlair: May 27 2008, 09:45 PM -------------------- |

This contest is the LeakyCon contest and not the Phase 2 contest listed in the first post?

The Phase 2 contest above was an example of some of the Image Gallery contests that we will be having. Originally we were hoping for new HBP images to be in our galleries at this time that we could use for our contest, however WB has yet to release them, so we figured with no new official images, and one year till LeakyCon, this would be a great opportunity to have a Icontest for LeakyCon. -------------------- |

I have another question
 We are supposed to send the image in the email, but how do I do that? I don't know if the email uses BB coding or html or what, and am a bit confused if my message will show the image or not. Help would be appreciated.

We ask that you attach the image, and send the HTML link to the image for example: CODE http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b288/Kimmyblair/RonGlockgal.png with the image attached, and your LL screen name would work perfectly! That is all the information we need... Feel free to keep asking questions! -------------------- |

I want to make sure I do it correctly:
You just want the image attached, the url to the image, and my user name? This post has been edited by JeffHpFan: May 28 2008, 04:16 PM -------------------- signature by kendra.dumbledore |
