Challenge Rules foricon_alphabet
Icon Alphabet is an icon challenge community where members accept the challenge to create a set of 26 icons from their favourite movie, tv show, actor or actress. Each icon is centered around a theme that corresponds to a letter of the alphabet.
ORIGINAL CHALLENGE RULES - for reference

FAQ:
Q: I did icons for Q, X, and Z first (you know, just to get them over with), do I have to post in order, or can I post whichever I've finished with?
A: Feel free to post in whichever order you've completed them, they don't have to be posted in alphabetical order. Just make sure you specify which letters you've completed!
Q: Can we use abstract concepts, as well as concrete items?
A: Definitely! If you feel that one icon you made really portrays, say, anger, you can use that as your A icon.
You can use this provided table if you like:
NEW RETRO_ICONTEST RULES - mandatory
Consider the original challenge rules and try to stick to them in spirit. Think a bit about how difficult/easy it will be to make 26 icons for a given theme, how difficult you want to make the challenge for yourself, and choose accordingly.
There are four empty cells (27-30) at the end of the table, feel free to put non-latin characters in there (even emojis).
-> there is no official claiming here - you only have to be accountable to yourself. it doesn't matter if you icon the same thing someone else does.
-> claims rules are also not mandatory: you can claim anything, including "stock".
-> please only make one post this round, even if the original comm allowed you to post in batches.
-> you don't have to have the whole alphabet finished or in order, just post what you have by the end of the round.
-> list the themes you used along with the corresponding letter.
-> 1 icon minimum (no maximum).
-> submit your icons as a new entry into the community. if there are more than five, put the rest under a cut or a link to your unlocked journal post. tag your post with round number and your username (or ask me to tag it for you).
-> submit the URLs along with your icons. I'll only put the first five per person into the roundup post. Either you only list five, or I'll take the first five.
-> make an effort to leave positive feedback on other participants' posts. <3
-> read the full rules here in our userinfo.
Each challenge will run for roundabout four weeks. There is no voting. I will make a roundup post containing up to 5 icons per person after every challenge. Challenges run roughly mid-month to mid-month every month.
Deadline for round #44: Friday, November 13th 2026 your end-of-day.
