Is there interest among icon makers for a LIMS contest for SG-1? lantis_lims is a well-run community and I enjoyed participating; I'd really like to see something like it for SG-1.

I used to think LIMS was ego-destroying with its eliminations and reasons for voting, but I found that knowing I'd get feedback spurred me to try new techniques and take risks. It was immensely helpful to me as an icon maker to receive comments, both positive *and* critical.

I've wished there were a similar community for SG-1 for a while. So, is there interest? I'd be willing to mod but I'd like to have either co-mods or, as the lantis_lims has, a bunch of volunteers to help. And, of course, I would like to have participants!

I'm sure there are lots of things I don't know about running a comm such as this; I've never done it. If you have any helpful suggestions or ideas, I'd love to hear them.

Also? Please pimp this poll. I would like to reach the widest range of SG-1 fans possible. Thank you. :)

Yay! :) There just aren't enough SG-1 icons in this world. I'm convinced of it.

It sort of depends on whether or not those really good icon makers participate, doesn't it? Although truthfully, it ended up not mattering to me when I decided to participate in lantis_lims. That group included some of my favorite makers and I just knew that I'd be out in the very first round. I was scared of that but decided that even if I were voted out first round, I'd have a learning experience. I don't think that would be your fate but something like that is unpredictable.

Thank you for the offer to help! I'm sure we'll take you up on it. As it is looking, I think there's enough interest so far to make this a real possibility.
