Vote NOW (or reasonably soon) at btvs20in20 ROUND 6

The voting posts are now up at [livejournal.com profile] btvsats20in20 for Round 6! The entry field is smaller this round but the choices are nonetheless sterling and still incredibly hard to make.

THEMES    - Pick the top icon out of each of the TEN themes. Because of the page's format, you must hit the "Vote" button each time individually; make sure not to miss any.

CATEGORY (Holiday Times) - Vote for 3 sets, then 6 individual icons (order doesn't matter). Again, you have to hit the two Vote buttons individually or your choice won't be tallied.

ARTIST'S CHOICE - Same voting format as Category. The "6 icons" bit is where I always agonize the most - and then mess up by voting for too many. Oops.

Because the 20in20 allows artists to post our sets before the voting, we have a choice of waiting until the vote goes up and voting "blind", or looking at the sets first. I've been more than a little remiss this month in not pimping the great sets by this round's participanting artists: [livejournal.com profile] oh_cheezit's "Spike and Buffy"; [livejournal.com profile] sweet_lyri's "Bangel"; [livejournal.com profile] halliwell's "Buffy Summers"; [livejournal.com profile] starry_night's "Harmony Kendall"; Angel (character) by [livejournal.com profile] tempertemper; and Willow Rosenberg by yours truly. Whichever order you vote and view, remember that feedback is love.

Thank you [livejournal.com profile] bangel_4e for being such a terrific moderator and so incredibly patient and gracious as always.

Thank you to everyone who already commented on my Willow set - I will answer every one of you, I promise.

And a huge, huge, can't-thank-her-enough THANK YOU to [livejournal.com profile] velvetwhip; if my set is any good at all it's largely because of her. The fact that it exists at all and I didn't drop out this round when I had a deadline looming but no icons and zero inspiration, is entirely due to her gentle, dependable encouragement, support and her brilliant ideas. Willow Rosenberg is still new-ish territory for me and Velvetwhip made her easier - and safer - for me to explore.  (I even made two Dark Willow icons for the first time ever and enjoyed doing them. Color me shocked.)

I absolutely loved your Willow set.

I also loved voting in this recent round of 20in20.

Thank you for voting!

I actually liked having fewer choices to vote for this time, especially when it came to the top 6 category and AC - it wasn't challenging but not quite so freaking tortuous, knowhatimean? sometimes too much of a good thing is just too much.

And - oh gosh those Harmony icons! I've never wanted a Harmony icon before - I want one NOW.

I agree. That Harmony set is so freaking gorgeous!

That's a fact! *points to icon*
