The theme for June is:
SUPERNATURAL
For this coming month, we are going to be making icons of anything that is supernatural.
I know it's early to be posting about our June battle, but I just started a rewatch of Teen Wolf.
So, I had the idea it would be a great idea for a battle!
Icon characters like werewolves, vampires, witches, wizards, etc.
You could also icon shows about the supernatural like for example the show Supernatural.
Have Fun! :)

So sorry for the confusion! <3

NEW RETRO_ICONTEST RULES - mandatory
As usual, the fandom restriction - LOTR and The Hobbit in this case - does not apply. Any fandoms (and stock) welcome. But in case you do like to use the fandoms, there's a list of galleries above, some of which still work (I checked).
At least one of the provided textures has to be used, of course. If you have trouble downloading the textures from DeviantArt (or the first two sets from LJ), let me know and I can post a selection of textures from those sets for you, like luminousdaze offered to do.
-> you may enter as many icons as you like. minimum 1 icon.
-> submit your icons as a new entry into the community. if there are more than five, put the rest under a cut or a link to your unlocked journal post. tag your post with round number and your username (or ask me to tag it for you).
-> submit the URLs along with your icons. I'll only put the first five per person into the roundup post. Either you only list five, or I'll take the first five.
-> make an effort to leave positive feedback on other participants' posts. <3
-> read the full rules here in our userinfo.
This comm generally runs from mid-month to mid-month every month, always ending on Fridays. There is no voting. I will make a roundup post containing up to 5 icons per person after every challenge.
