Before I begin I would like to make a public apology to all my fellow DP fans. It has been a difficult mwaka for me, and I haven’t been doing very well with keeping up with my ikoni contests, especially this one. Thus, only about half of the months were finished. I am very sorry, and I have made some adjustments that should help me do a better job of staying accountable. Thank wewe for understanding.
Now, with that aside, I am pleased and honored to announce the ikoni that wewe fellow DP mashabiki voted, out of countless entries, the best ikoni of 2014!
* Drum Roll *
“Breaking Free” made kwa snsdlover4ever!!
Congratulations!!!
I am also proud to announce the sekunde and third best ikoni of 2014!
2nd place goes to fanlovver with her ikoni “Can wewe Paint with all the Colors of the Wind?”
And last but not least, in 3rd place came “I See the Light” created kwa euny!
Congratulations to the three winners, as well as the countless other participants! All the ikoni were amazing!
I would like to orodha the honorable mentions, the winners of each month!
(The awali three not included)
March - juliemontoya “Cinderella”
June – fanlovver "Just Around the River Bend”
October – nmdis “Dream it Out Loud”
September – euny “Jasmine”
As wewe can see in the screenshot at the bottom of the article, some interesting things went down. There was originally a tie between fanlovver’s icon, and snsdlover4ever’s icon. I had to do a tie breaker, which was still very close, and when it ended snsdlover4ever’s ikoni won at 53% and fanlovver’s at 48%!
Now, an interview with the winner!
Please Welcome snsdlover4ever!!
~ About snsdlover4ever ~
Q: When did wewe join?
A: I joined on the first siku of January in the mwaka 2014 (which seems like it's been ages for me ><)
Q: Why did wewe join?
A: Since I'm an avid kpop fan, I noticed that the foramu on my then-favorite kpop group were full of activity and people who were into the same stuff I was in. It seemed like a new and fun experience for me to try.
Q: How did wewe pick your username?
A: I went with the first name I thought of. Girls Generation, au SNSD for short, was my inayopendelewa group and I thought they would still be my vipendwa today. Now that I think about it, I wish I had thought of a better username.
Q: What is your inayopendelewa Princess?
A: I'm very fickle when it comes to choosing a inayopendelewa out of the Princesses, mainly because of the many, MANY discussions/debates that other users have instigated. They usually bring out a new perspective of a certain Princess that I never seemed to notice. I'd say I'm fairly neutral about all of them; I view them all as characters that strive for perfection, but are stopped kwa a major flaw of theirs, which I think is relatable to me in a sense.
~ About the icon: ~
Q: What program did wewe use?
A: I only used Pixlr Express. Out of all the things I've made, this one was the simplest and easiest ikoni I've ever made.
Q: How did wewe name it?
A: Since Ariel was breaking out of the ocean, I thought it would be a suitable name.
Q: Is it a inayopendelewa of yours?
A: I'd say it is. I honestly thought that there were other ikoni that had better quality than what I had made, but I'm grateful that people actually enjoyed the simplicity of it.
Q: What gave wewe the idea?
A: During summer, I had a phase where I would hariri lots and lots of screencaps, so I stumbled upon this one and decided to use it, and threw in some overlays. I then decided that I wanted to submit it as an entry for your contest, since I actually had time to partake in it.
Q: Are wewe going to keep entering icons?
A: Hopefully I can. I can tell that I've gotten much better at making them, and it's always been fun to make them once in a while. The only things that get in the way are my laziness to scroll through tons of screencaps, and the fact that fanpop has ruined the desktop version on my phone.
Q: How long have wewe been making icons?
A: A little less than a year.
Q: What was your first one? & Can wewe describe it?
A: Well, I made a Frozen hariri based on the scene with the reprise of FTFTIF. The only thing I can say to describe it is that it turned out better than I thought it would.
Q: What is your favorite?
A: I'm not too sure what my inayopendelewa ikoni is. I've made lots, so it's hard to choose just one.
Q: How are wewe feeling about winning ikoni of the year?
A: I still feel overwhelmed and grateful that I chose to enter in the contest. I'm glad I took this opportunity, and after some stiff competition, I'm thankful to all of the users of the DP club, since this is where I started editing, and I don't think I'll ever stop.

Well, there wewe have it! Great job everybody, and don't forget to enter ikoni each mwezi for a chance to win ikoni of 2015!
Bye!
