Board Button/Icon Contest

Alright so, as you guys have probably seen out Board Icons and Buttons are still the same as the default ones. Sooo, how about I hold a contest so we can change that?

IN OTHER WORDS....

GRAPHICS CONTEST!!!

Anyways, basically all you have to do is pick 1 or more categories from the four below and remake all the icons (or a set of them). Winners will recieve the following:

Prizes:
Cat 1 - Topic Buttons

  • 2 Rare Candies
  • 1 Rare Pokemon or 1 Pokemon Egg
  • 300$ In-Character

Cat 2 - Post Icons

  • 3 Rare Candies
  • 2 Pokemon Eggs or 1 Rare Pokemon of Choice (No Legends, Fossil, Eevee, or Dittos)
  • 350$ In-Character

Cat 3 - Topic Images

  • 3 Rare Candies
  • 1 Pokemon Egg and 2 Common Pokemon (One of Choice and one randomly selected)
  • 450$ In-Character

Cat 4 - Other

  • 1 Rare Candy
  • 1 Common Pokemon of Choice
  • 250$ In-Character


Also, the use of Darkrai and/or any other Legendary Pokemon besides main-legends awards Bonus Points (not really) Main Legends are as follows: Mew, Mewtwo, Ho-Oh, Lugia, Rayquaza, Kyogre, Groudon, Giratina, Palkia, Dialga, and Arceus.

Also, remember to keep the icons atleast SOMEWHAT similar to the board skin.

So, with that said. Here are the categories and the corresponding images for each. The contest will last until the 21st of this month, so get to work!

Well... here's My first submission. I was tying for a more... RP style rather than specifically pokemon.
Posted Image
Now, Im off to work on some others... perhaps the second category... but this raises another question. If I win both categories, then will I get all of the prizes? I think thats a bit unfair if I'll have 5 Rare Candies, 2 Rare pokemon (plus Shiledon, so really it's 3) and $650.

I think that the following would suffice if I won both categories.
  • One Rare Pokemon of Choice or One random Pokemon of Selected Type.
  • :rarecandy Rare Candy x2
  • $325 (half of $650)



Okay. Here's my others. Similar style, ah well I tried. I may win, I may not.

I like the "New Reply" marker in category 2 (the seventh one) as is, so thats why its not on here.

I finished some really simple ones for set three... these buttons should kind of blend in, otherwise the site's layout might be too flamboyant.

I just noticed that in the prize list under my submission I wrote "Rare pokemon" when I ment common, I know exactly what I would pick, so forget the last part of that.

No harm in trying I suppose...

The shaded pics can have their colour changed if you want as it doesn't really fit in with scheme but I did legendaries to fit with backstory. (As you can see with Icon 1, 3 and 5, NO effort was put in. Icons 2, 4 and 6 were just re-colours and icon 9 was a slight edit. Icon 7 and 8 however were done from scratch by me.)

They're in the order Shad posted so enjoy :)

...If having just Darkrai on them is too boring, I can replace it with other Pokemon.
