Last Icon Maker Standing (LIMS) is an elimination graphic contest, in which each round the contestants will be challenged under certain specifications and the last person “Standing” will be the winner.

Each week the hostess will proportionate a theme and the contestants must send one (or more) signature that responds to said theme. When the time is up, the hostess will post the icon (anonymously) and the voting start.
In each round we will award the next things:
~ 1 People’s Choice: The winner of the round (awarded with votes)
~ 1 Mod’s Choice: Chosen by the hostess
~ Special Category: This can vary from round to round

Also, in each round there will be at least one contestant eliminated. The graphics with more negative votes or the editors that fail to deliver the graphic on time will be eliminated.

Each contestant will have one PASS ticket that can only be used once in the entire contest (except the last round) and it means that the contestant can skip one round without being eliminated.

Aside from the forum rules, we have a few rules:
~ The contestant CAN’T show anyone the graphic until the voting for said round is over (that way we can keep the contest anonymously until the results of the week)
~ The contestant CAN’T ask anyone to vote for his/her graphics
~ The contestant CAN’T use old graphics or other peoples graphics
~ The votes MUST be sent via google docs

Each round will last 1 week:
Week 1 | Tuesday: Theme/Challenge presentation
Week 1 | Friday: Last day of graphics reception
Week 1 | Friday: Voting start
Week 1 | Sunday: Last day of voting
Week 2 | Monday: Last challenge results and new theme/challenge presentation
And so on, until we have a winner
