LIMS has a whole set of pressures that a weekly contest does not. I don't have to choose just one Jack and live or die by that choice. SO much less pressure. My Jack well of ideas had run very, very dry about so I figured a break wouldn't hurt but I had no inkling it would take all of my creative energies. I have no earthly idea how you're taking part in 3 of them at once. One is all that I can handle. :|
I have faith that you'll come up with something brilliant and be spared the embarrassment of being eliminated in the first round, though some of my favorite icon makers,
pumahmistress and
obaona struck out early in this LIMS so I've learned to take it as "this icon isn't for this audience."
May inspiration strike! Best of luck to you! :)
