Challenge 209: Negative Space

[djmustangsally.livejournal.com]

It's been a little while since we've done a technical challenge. We haven't done this specific challenge for quite a while, either, so let's make icons with negative space!

This means the majority of your icon must be open space - this doesn't mean empty, just not featuring the subject of your icon. It can be filled with color/texture, but NOT the subject of your icon!


RULES:
- You may enter up to 4 (four) icons for this challenge.
- Only members may enter.
- The same cap may be used more than once provided the crop is significantly different.
- Use only screen captures or promo/actor images.

the usual, but please remember:
- All icons must fit LJ req's: 100 x 100, 40k, and PNG, JPG or GIF format.
- Animation, textures, brushes, text, any caps are allowed.
- All icons must be original to THIS challenge.
- Icons must remain anonymous until after voting.
- Submit your icons to THIS post in a screened comment with URL and image.

Feel free to use this form. Just replace URL with the direct link.

- Icons due Sunday, March 3, 10 pm EST.

Hi there! Thanks so much for entering the challenge this week! Your icons look great, however, the third one isn't really featuring negative space. That icon has most of the space filled with its subject, Spock. To make it applicable, you could certainly use the same image if you just left more space blank around Spock.

Feel free to check out some examples from the last time we had a negative space challenge (#137). Here's the main page with some examples of different types of negative space (http://trekicontest.livejournal.com/99698.html), and the voting has a number of examples as well (http://trekicontest.livejournal.com/101256.html). If you have any questions, feel free to message me!
