Hogwarts RPG Name: Dustin Ashby First Year | Goblet of Icons v.6 Jules says I'm RAD | Booger | Team Men | Chris's SS!BFAM | Big Tuna | Captain Stacked | #Superman . 
A Harry Potter Graphics Challenge Goblet of Icons is the longest running graphics challenge hosted on Snitchseeker. Initially started by iamoscar over six years ago, the challenge concept has undergone few changes, but the rules of the game remain the same.

- The host (Nabs, cake.ninjak, or Lissy Longbottom) will post a challenge.
- Anyone wishing to enter will send their icons to the person who posted the challenge. Rules for the icons are:
- They must be 100x100 pixels in size
- They must be under 20kbs in size
- No animated icons unless stated otherwise.
- You must not reveal your icon(s) to anybody. All icons must be anonymous.
- You are allowed to enter up to two icons.
- Occasionally, there will also be signature banner challenges, and the rules for the banners are 450x200px and under 60kbs.
- The icons will be posted 2 days (48 hours) after the challenge was posted.
- A poll will be posted with the numbers of the icons, and you may vote for your favourite icon(s) there. The rules of voting are:
- You cannot vote for your own icon(s) (we will know if you do).
- You vote for your THREE favourite icons.
- You are allowed to vote for 2 days (48 hours) after the entries have been posted, and at the end of those 2 days, the host will post the list of the top 3 along with Winner Banners.
- The winner of the previous challenge will also select an entry for the Winners' Choice award.
- In the event of a tie, a new poll will be started with the icons that were tied and you may vote for only ONE day.
- The winner with the most votes will PM the next challenge (theme or image) to ALL THREE hosts (Nabs, cake.ninjak, and Lissy Longbottom) within the next 3 days (72 hours).
- The host will then post up the next challenge!
- The winner of the previous round will NOT be allowed to enter the next round with the theme they selected. They will be eligible again after the challenge they selected has concluded.
---
This challenge has been brought back for it's sixth season because we are a Harry Potter fansite, and as so few of the challenges being run at the time are canon Harry Potter related, we have decided that it's time. So enjoy!
Happy graphicing!
Nabs, Lissy, and Kelvin

Wait...I think the poll's messed up. It says 18 people voted but there's only one tie-breaking vote. I'll fix it.
EDIT: Put up a new poll! If you were the one vote, please vote again!

Hogwarts RPG Name: Dustin Ashby First Year | Jules says I'm RAD | Booger | Team Men | Chris's SS!BFAM | Big Tuna | Captain Stacked | #Superman Challenge #2 :: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Are we going to go through all the books, you ask? Well, the answer to that is a maybe. But it's not up to us! It's up to YOUUUU!!! Specifically, this challenge comes straight from the mind of Roro (BanaBatGirl) herself, our round one victor! Why? Because, and I quote, "that's my favorite book movie THING. YEAH. I like it." So there you have it, folks! This challenge will center around Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets! You can use any source images, whether it be movie stills, chapter art, fan art, official artwork, etc. as long as it is from CoS! - You have 48 hours from this post to PM your entries to ME, Kelvin.
- You are allowed TWO entries.
- Your entries must comply with SS size rules (100x100px/20kbs).
- No animated icons.
- All entries must comply with SS Board Rules.
- Entries must be created FOR this challenge and not recycled from your already posted/used icons. So no using past grab bags for this challenge!
- Keep your entries anonymous.
Entries: 09
If you have any questions, feel free to post here or PM one of the MM's mods.
Now, go get graphicating! Good luck!
