tinnySince this is our seventh round at retro_icontest (and it's September), I thought it fitting to choose this challenge from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
the7days.
This challenge was originally posted tothe7days in July 2020 here. Thank you so much to novindalf for allowing us to use it!
If you yourself are a mod of an (old, closed) comm, and you'd like to allow us to revisit some of your challenges, let me know! I'm still going through the list and PMing mods of older comms, but I've barely scratched the surface. All the comms we currently have permission for are listed in the masterlist here.

It's back to school for this challenge, where you have to feature a different school subject in each icon! I've put some examples below the cut. Just to be completely clear, you need to feature 7 different subjects in your set, 1 for each icon, and they don't need to be from the selection below, but they need to be real school subjects (unfortunately, Defence Against the Dark Arts doesn't count!)
( examples )
ORIGINAL RULES - for reference only
» you have to post seven icons fitting the theme
» your icons must be new, made specifically for this community
» your icons must fit lj standards
» you may change your icons whenever you want before the deadline
NEW RETRO_ICONTEST RULES - mandatory
Consider the original challenge rules and try to stick to them in spirit.
-> since you can enter more than seven icons, you don't have to make all of them from different school subjects. on the other hand, you can make more than seven different ones :) - your choice!
-> you may enter as many icons as you like. minimum 1 icon.
-> 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 #07: Friday, October 13th 2023 your end-of-day (sorry, Friday is not the 14th /o\)
