Let's get this rolling again.  It looks like we've gotten a few new artists since the last one, so I have high hopes for round five!

There was no winner for round 4.  Aionia was the only entrant, so she is picking the "theme" of this challenge.  Instead of a topical theme, everyone must incorporate the following photo into their entry:

Aionia has already posted her entry in the previous thread, so I'll post it here as an example:

The theme image can be cropped or altered, as long as it is included in the entry in some way.  As always, the other rules:

Avatar Design Challenge Rules

• Challenge begins today, January 14, 2008.  You do not have to "register" or otherwise state your intent to play, but it's nice if you do so so I can see what kind of response the theme is getting.
  
  
• The challenge theme will be chosen by the winner of the previous round.  Aionia selected the theme for this challenge.
  
  
• Players have one month to submit their design (i.e., until February 14).  Please submit your entries by uploading them to an image service such as Photobucket, and then inlining them into a reply to the challenge theme post (use [img] ... [/img]).  Also, post your idea for the next month's theme with your entry, so we can keep everything on schedule.
  
  
• Multiple entries are permitted, but please mark one "preferred" entry, in case there are many entrants and the list gets too unwieldy.
  
  
• Voting will take place between the end of the challenge and the beginning of the next round.  All interested members are encouraged to vote for their favorites.  The winner and new theme will be announced on the first day of the next round.
  
  
• Please review the Avatar Guidelines and be sure your entry meets them.  Also, please do not use copyrighted images when making your entry, unless you have permission from the copyright holder.
  
  
• By participating in the challenge, you are giving other members permission to use your entry as their avatar.  Please don't enter avatars that you don't want others to use.  Exception: you may enter your own personal avatar if it was made new for the contest.
