Rules

• Create a set of 2-6 icons or 1-3 banners (or a combination of the two!) for any qualifying team that's not your own (including Grandstand!) For your convenience, here's the team roster.
  
  
• No NSFW fills will be accepted for this round. This rule does not extend to other bonus rounds.
  
  
• You may only create one set of graphics for any given team; however, you and your teammates can create graphics for the same team.

It is courteous to thank your gifter for any graphics your team receives, and if your team is in need of some icons/banners, don't be afraid to ask!

Scoring

• Fills 1-5 by any member of your team: 10 points each
  
• Fills 6-10: 5 points each
  
• Fills 11+: no points, they're just for fun!

Post Format

Paste the following into the subject header of your comment:

FILL: TEAM [YOUR TEAM] for [RECEIVING TEAM], [RATING]

Paste the following into the body of your comment:

(Please delete all text in parentheses as you go.) <strong>Major Tags:</strong> (https://sportsfest.dreamwidth.org/3623.html, when applicable; otherwise write "None".) <strong>Other Tags:</strong> (anything else that you feel requires tagging; can include jokey tumblr-style tags here; may also pull from the "Additional Tags" list from the URL above, if applicable; otherwise, write "None" here.) (Place any author/artist's notes BEFORE the asterisks. Leave the asterisks alone or you may not get points!) *** (Upload your graphic/s to an image hosting site such as Imgur or PostImage and insert them here either as an image or link. To place images in your comment, use this code: <img src="LINK TO YOUR IMAGE" alt="DESCRIPTION OF YOUR IMAGE">. If your image is larger than 600px, please use <img src="LINK TO YOUR IMAGE" alt="DESCRIPTION OF YOUR IMAGE" width"600px">.)

Resources

To create your graphics you may use: official series art (screencaps, manga pages, artbook/magazine illustrations, etc.), fanart, quotes, lyrics, gifs, or any other medium. For fanart, gifs, and other fan made content, you must have permission before using them in your graphics.

• Pixlr - an online (no download necessary) image editing program. A great place to start if you're on an older computer or one that's low on hard drive space.
• GIMP - Despite its unfortunate name, GIMP is an excellent free image editing program.
• Lost and Taken - A collection of high resolution textures.
• Font Squirrel, Lost Type Foundry, and League of Moveable Type - Free high quality font resources. They're all hand-picked or created by professional graphic designers.
• Icon-Extras - A resource for icon tutorials and the like. Also features textures, brushes, bases etc. that are particularly good for icons (rather than the all-purpose textures at Lost and Taken).
• Resource Cards - This site links to tons of free online resources, everything from fonts to icons to photoshop templates.

Remember: Dreamwidth icons are 100x100, and can have a maximum filesize of 40 kb.

Banners are typically around 150-400px tall and 400-800px wide. This is pretty flexible, though.
