I was waiting for the Titan Maximum icons to post, actually*. They just went up about an hour ago.

Where would the custom icon thread be, when it goes up?  I.e., which board?

[CG-LOVER]

YESSSS!!!!  About time!

Doxie, the new thread will be in this folder (Forum/Site Support).

[SwimMod_Arcturus]

It's always in the same spot - right here. This thread will be locked and a new one will be up when it's time.

This is going to rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[doxiedachsie]

Thanks.

@ CG-Lover:  Thanks.

[MediumMan]

Did you ever get a verdict on whether or not I'll be able to get a grayscaled icon, or should I give up on that dream?

[SwimMod_Arcturus]

I have to say no on that one. I may try to adjust the rules later but for now, no.

[MediumMan]

Alright, thanks anyway.

Question. Stuff that was cut from the Brotherhood opening and ending, yes or no for customs?

[PenguinBoss]

I was hoping it wouldn't be cut on the video section so some argument for it could be made. Too bad, I remember when [as] was cool and had it uncut on the Fix.

[mgangel1124]

That blows majorly. I've been wanting my sexy lipsynching Riza icon since April.

[SwimMod_Arcturus]

Same rules apply. If it didn't air, can't use it.

[KnightStar]

I hate to ask honestly, but any idea if you are or for that matter what time you might open the icon submission thread today Arc?

[SwimMod_Arcturus]

Not today, still working on the rules and such. And the first warning you'll get is this thread closing.

[KnightStar]

Thanks and I will keep an eye out for this thread to lock.

[mgangel1124]

That makes me a sad panda.

Welp, nothing to do but wait six months for a big Brotherhood submission to get my special icon.

[spearhead]

But the opening has aired, hasn't it?  So that means you could use that image, right?

EDIT: realized what you were asking.  Hmm... never saw Riza lip-synching; always thought it was Winry that did that near the end.

Winry lipsynchs at the end. There's a bit with Riza lipsynching to the song about halfway through the OP, and that part was cut.

[doxiedachsie]

I know this is a random dumb question; but must the icons have a single color background mask (black, grey, or midnight) or will the original full color image be acceptable (all other pre-requisites being met, of course)?

[CG-LOVER]

They'll be accepted. 

Of course I mean that in terms of not changing the background from the original screencap image.  Now if you are changing the background I do think there are some limits as to how far you can go with that.

[doxiedachsie]

Thanks.  I would pretty much restrict it to either the original screen cap, cropped & resized to 80x80, or the same exact image with the background masked to a neutral color.

[CG-LOVER]

I think that should be fine.

I'm ready on this account but not on my old main.  I can't find the episode for that old icon.  Oh well, I guess that one will stay blank. 

(Now I have a post at the top of my tracker that will show this thread closed.  I am trying to catch this submission.)

[SwimMod_Arcturus]

Bye bye, thread.
