|  The SS Index, v.2 So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
 IT'S BACK! Due to a recent influx of signature and PP competitions, we decided it was high time to bring back the traditional icon challenge, and what better way to do so than to bring back The SS Index!
This competition is a stock icon challenge. All our challenges will feature Stock photography, which includes anything and everything... which isn't fashion, Harry Potter, anime, cartoons, Disney, fandoms, rock, celebrity and etc.
The challenge will be hosted by myself, Laura (Ozma) and Zoe (accio.brain).
A stock icon is an icon that is made from a stock image. A stock image could be taken yourself, or found on a website.
There are many websites where you can get stock images, including Getty Images, SXC, Corbis, Veer, iStockPhoto, Flickr, etc.
» One of the hosts will post an image or theme* and the challenge rules
» You PM the current round host your entries (2 icons each) within the 48 hour time limit
» The host will post the entries and a poll
» You vote for your favourite icons within the 48 hour time limit
» The winner is announced, banners are awarded and the next challenge begins!  » You are allowed to enter 2 icons
» The icons must be 100x100 and less than 20kbs
» All images used must be stock
» All icons must comply to the current round theme / clearly feature the given image.
» Don't tell people which entry is yours or post clues about your entries
» Do not vote for your own icons
» Do not tell your friends to vote for your icons
» Do not reveal your vote to others, it's not nice
» All images must comply with SS Board Rules
» Doods, have fun!
The first challenge will be posted shortly!
*stock image or theme refers to the challenge itself. Each week the challenge will alternate between a specific picture which entrants will have to use in their entries and a Theme (eg flowers, romance, furniture, feet, etc) where entrants may choose their own pictures to use.

I have 9 entries so far! Keep them coming in! You have until 7pm BST, but I'll probably extend the deadline if I don't get many more in.

y'know, I've decided that I'm not going to enter this one... I'm just going to steal all of the entries that come in. It's a well pretty picture and I don't think I could do it justice.

I may have to steal some of these, too, if they're done right. I have a red-headed character who these pictures could totally work with. xD | |

I voted, but I did have a hard time choosing. I found myself wanting to vote for at least five, too.
I have a question, though...are entries eight and twelve the same? I'm probably overlooking the difference, but I just thought I'd ask.

^ I'm thinking they may be duplicates cos... as far as I can see, there IS no difference. If they're duplicates... I'm assuming one of those accidentally replaced another icon? D: | |

Please vote again! Laura is an idiot and has stupid eyes.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
