Icon Contest: Please Vote for Your Favorite!

I cannot tell you what a difficult time author Lori Smith and I had choosing these icons. She chose ten, and I chose ten. Our overlapping choices definitely made the cut, but then I had to decide the rest, and I chewed my nails down to the nub deciding on the finalists. In fact, the close runners up sit in the honorable mention section.

Now it is your turn to vote. Please choose your favorite icon. You may vote once a day for a week. I will announce the winner next Monday night. If there is a tie, there will be a 'sudden death' vote off! You have until midnight Sunday, November 11th and you may vote once per day.

Here are your choices in no particular order:

#1
What woman wouldn't want Colonel Brandon to worry about her health?
Sent in by Lois.

Pride and Prejudice in a nutshell. The stances and words say it all.

Honorable Mentions:

This screen shot submitted by Paula was too large to successfully turn into the smaller icon, but I wanted to showcase it for its humor.










In addition, I really like these icons too:



Ah, Mr. Colins, you would be ridiculous in any age. Thanks for sending this on Sharon T.





I adore this photo of Keira and Matthew, from which Lady Jane created this icon. DJVivash also used this image to create a luscious icon.





Emma Thompson as Elinor looking so very lovely.
Submitted by Mascha. She also submitted the breathtaking image of Marianne below.






Heather sent us her dream house. Mmmm. I wonder if it comes with Mr. Darcy?







Kayla sent in an icon of Lydia. How fabulous to view a secondary character.





Lois knew that Emma and her Mr. Knightley only have eyes for each other.






Kate Winslet made the tiresome Marianne seem adorable. Sent in by Kayla.







Kayla sent in this one of Jane and Tom. He seems so in love.





Lois sent in this lovely image of Toni Collette as Harriet Smith. I love seeing the secondary characters.





I keep returning to this animated icon made by Cubby. It was hard to choose between this one and Darcy walking through the mist.




Here's another one I made. It's a bit large but I just had to throw it in.
