The Reveal: Color Textures Fun Challenge
Color Textures Fun Challenge revealing time! Lots of wonderful textures and colors... it's so much fun to look at what you guys came up with. :D To all you icon makers, you get 29 different sets of textures (submitted by 17 people) to play with all at once. It's like Christmas. ;)

Originally, I was going to sort these by color but then it turned out not to be very practical since the colors went all over the place. Hee! All the better, I say. A couple of people, I think, also may have misunderstood the terms of challenge, so a few sets came out having a range of more than one color. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear enough on that point... but I'm including them in the list anyway since they were already made and, well, how can I not? They're goodies! :p

Enjoy, and don't forget to comment on their respective posts! I'm sure they'd love to hear what you think.


--------------------------------------------------
NOTE: While a few sets turned out a little off course with more than one color mixed into the textures, I'm listing them in the color the maker intended them to be. I've included one teaser per entry on the list below- go to their post for the entire thing please.

Thank you so much to everyone who joined in on the challenge. I hope you guys had fun with it. :) Btw, I noticed that many of you thought this was a contest and that there would be a voting of some sort. It isn't, since this was all done in great fun only and a competition was never the point. Plus I didn't want to discourage any potential first-timers to texture making by turning this into a contest. :p

HOWEVER, if you guys are interested in doing something similar to this again, then I'm definitely all for hosting resource challenges from time to time- perhaps even an actual contest with voting here or there if that's what you guys would want to see sometimes. Poll time, me thinks!

Poll #1016931
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 134

Would you be interested in another "resource" challenge and if so, what kind would you want to try next? (more than one answer allowed)

YAY Dir en grey! But seriously, it's all good. I didn't take it personally at all. It was my fault for ninja-ing you. So don't worry.
