Well, since it's been a while since I managed to watch TV, am usually a season behind anyway and don't know all shows out there, I decided to ask if anybody wants to be a co-mod to open the variety a bit.
The tasks:
Taking on every other challenge - making posts for submissions, reminders, voting and results.
I'd be willing to make banners for those challenges as well, but that can be discussed. If anybody is interested, please comment to this post.

I planned to give it a bit more time in the hope of late minute entries, but ended up forgetting all about getting the voting and the new challenge up. Sorry for that. Considering how late it is and more importantly, how tired I am, I'm going to post both tomorrow morning.
You have until then to enter still. Once again sorry for everybody waiting already.
Challenge 06

First of all, thanks to those who suggested themes, I like the suggestions, but I didn't have time to continue the list with the suggestions and will comment when I finally do. Hopefully it will be sometime this week.
Secondly... since I might continue not being punctual with banners, I was considering to make generic ones. I've seen it done in other icontests, however, those usually had one topic (plants, David Tennant,...) and not a different TV show every challenge. So I wondered what you would prefer. Keep up the individual banners (usually using the screencap the winning icon is made from) or generic ones? In the case of the generic ones I would be willing to make several sample ones and let the winners pick which ones they want.
Lastly, since some themes seem to work better than other and even if one person suggests a theme, doesn't make it one everyone else wants to enter. So, I wondered if I should post a poll giving - lets say 3 - possible TV shows to choose from with the current challenge and make the next one for the show that won.

I had thought giving it another day (or two as it turned out) would give at least one more person time to enter (sadly, I didn't have enough time to do some to fill the challenge up a bit), but it didn't. So I'm officially extending the challenge until early next Saturday so we stay in the usual time frame. Check out the challenge here.
The next challenge will go up when the voting is posted.

I meant to post this earlier today, but I was busy and forgot all about it afterwards.
So far there is only one person who has entered and I'd really like to see more. As such I'm extending the challenge until tomorrow night.

OK, since I'm afraid to embarrass myself by posting pictures of the wrong person I'm going to make this challenge free for all, meaning you can pick any pictures you want. Be they from the series or promos. That's me giving it up to find nice screencaps with me knowing who's who :)
Basic guidelines can be found in the profile or here.
Rules for this specific challenge:
- You can only use the provided screencaps
- Everything with the exception of animation is allowed
- You can submit up to three (3) icons!
Entries are due on 1 November (Saturday) a 10am German Time! Worldtime Overview
Otherwise... I did find a post at LJ where you can download screencaps:

Lastly, I'm hoping for a couple of more votes for challenge 4! If you haven't voted yet, please consider doing so.

A little poll, while I get the voting ready (which I was too tired to do yesterday), about the past challenges.
It's a fact that most of the time I get home half an hour after I set the due time so I considered officially giving everybody another hour or two. Since I'm really tired most of the time, I could live with generally posting it Saturday morning, which I know would most probably be easier for anybody who's behind me time wise. How long should the voting be open?
So, which would you prefer?
Additionally, after realising I have more time to make icons on a weekend, I figured I could post the challenge earlier, meaning right along with the voting post.
And a little question, since for shows I know, I pick screencaps I have made. How was the selection and size so far? Only the CSI caps where larger than the rest (and not as large as they could be since Photobucket resized them although I'm sure I said not to resize them). I try to have a variety and feature all main characters on a show at least once if it's an episodic or general theme.
Lastly, since Germany's mostly a season behind most US shows that swap over the pond and few British shows are shown here (and because suggested themes imply that at least one person is going to enter :) ), I've got a suggestion post where you can find a list of future and past challenges.

So, I guess Saturday didn't work out for me (and Sunday hid from me - I can't remember what I did yesterday, just that it was over before it started)... but I finally got the banners made.
