Before I begin I would like to make a public apology to all my fellow DP fans. It has been a difficult साल for me, and I haven’t been doing very well with keeping up with my आइकन 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 आप for understanding.
Now, with that aside, I am pleased and honored to announce the आइकन that आप fellow DP प्रशंसकों voted, out of countless entries, the best आइकन of 2014!
* Drum Roll *

Congratulations!!!
I am also proud to announce the सेकंड and third best आइकनों of 2014!
2nd place goes to fanlovver with her आइकन “Can आप Paint with all the रंग of the Wind?”
And last but not least, in 3rd place came “I See the Light” created द्वारा euny!
Congratulations to the three winners, as well as the countless other participants! All the आइकनों were amazing!
I would like to सूची the honorable mentions, the winners of each month!
(The पूर्व three not included)
March - juliemontoya “Cinderella”
June – fanlovver "Just Around the River Bend”
October – nmdis “Dream it Out Loud”
September – euny “Jasmine”
As आप 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 आइकन won at 53% and fanlovver’s at 48%!
Now, an interview with the winner!
Please Welcome snsdlover4ever!!
~ About snsdlover4ever ~
Q: When did आप join?
A: I joined on the first दिन of January in the साल 2014 (which seems like it's been ages for me ><)
Q: Why did आप join?
A: Since I'm an avid के पॉप fan, I noticed that the मंचों on my then-favorite के पॉप 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 आप pick your username?
A: I went with the first name I thought of. Girls Generation, या SNSD for short, was my प्रिय group and I thought they would still be my प्रिय today. Now that I think about it, I wish I had thought of a better username.
Q: What is your प्रिय Princess?
A: I'm very fickle when it comes to choosing a प्रिय 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 द्वारा a major flaw of theirs, which I think is relatable to me in a sense.
~ About the icon: ~
Q: What program did आप use?
A: I only used Pixlr Express. Out of all the things I've made, this one was the simplest and easiest आइकन I've ever made.
Q: How did आप name it?
A: Since Ariel was breaking out of the ocean, I thought it would be a suitable name.
Q: Is it a प्रिय of yours?
A: I'd say it is. I honestly thought that there were other आइकनों that had better quality than what I had made, but I'm grateful that people actually enjoyed the simplicity of it.
Q: What gave आप the idea?
A: During summer, I had a phase where I would संपादन करे 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 प्रस्तुत करे it as an entry for your contest, since I actually had time to partake in it.
Q: Are आप 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 फैन्पॉप has ruined the desktop version on my phone.
Q: How long have आप been making icons?
A: A little less than a year.
Q: What was your first one? & Can आप describe it?
A: Well, I made a फ्रोज़न संपादन करे 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 प्रिय आइकन is. I've made lots, so it's hard to choose just one.
Q: How are आप feeling about winning आइकन 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 आप have it! Great job everybody, and don't forget to enter आइकनों each महीना for a chance to win आइकन of 2015!
Bye!
