★ Official 2024 Actors & Actresses Badge Voting Thread ★ Status: Suggestions open for all badges until July 6th at 11:59pm EST!

Welcome to the Official 2024 Actors & Actresses Badge Voting Thread!

-

This thread operates differently from other threads, similar to the Anime & Video Game Voting Thread.
The first phase will be the nominations phase, a period where you will be able to nominate your favorite actors & actresses which you'd like to be added to the system.

Only a limited number of badges will be added, here is the rundown for this year's free slot limits:
Korean Actors - 5 slots
Korean Actresses - 5 slots
Japanese Actors - 5 slots
Japanese Actresses - 5 slots
Chinese Actors - 5 slots
Chinese Actresses - 5 slots

To nominate, please use the following form:​

Username:
Name of actor/actress:
Korean/Japanese/Chinese:​

If there's a category with less than maximum of the nominations when the phase comes to a close, they will all automatically be transferred to the next phase and no further nominations will be accepted.
​

• Following the nomination phase, a Nomination Voting Phase will start: here you'll be able to vote for the actors/actresses that you'd like to see added so that the top 5 for each category can be finalized.​
• Once the users have voted and the winners are announced, a Suggestions Phase will start where you'll be able to submit the mock badges for your faves. Make sure to have some ready! If there are any nominations with no suggestions at the end of this phase, they will not be added into the system at this time.
  Please note that this is where you'll also be able to submit mocks for already existing badges that you would like to have updated!​
• The last step will be the Final Voting Phase which is basically the usual voting phase where you'll vote to choose the final badges.
  May the best win!​

Both this thread, as well as the Anime & Video Games Thread, will be now tied to the Awards Season, meaning that new badges (outside of the ones added with the form) will be voted on once a year.

GUIDELINES​

• No fantaken images. To protect the content creators rights as well as ourselves fantaken images are not allowed to be used as badges.
• Only HQ pictures. For quality purposes. The higher quality, the better an image will look as a badge.
• No heavily edited images. The more edited, the worse the quality becomes overall.
• No extreme contrast, highlighted colors, or super light/dark images. They just don't look good when sized down.
• Face should be centered. For aesthetic purposes.
• Logos should only be used for groups & are not allowed for individuals (in most cases). We understand some artists are very difficult to find pictures of and will deal with that on a case by case basis.
• Only screenshots from Music Videos, CFs and official content are allowed. If you're unsure what falls under this rule, please don't hesitate to ask on our ask thread.
• Instagram Pictures. Selfies are not allowed, however, pictures taken by someone else are allowed (examples of such: here, here, here or here). Still, keep in mind that these have to meet all the other guidelines as well.
• Profiles can be used, as well as some object coverage is allowed. Face coverage isn't totally ruled out but the more you can see of the artist the better. Profiles are OK if we can clearly tell who the artist is.
• Derp faces / Exaggerated facial expressions / Unrecognizable. These will not be allowed, badges are not to be meme-like or anything that is out of the ordinary/unpleasant, such as: frowning, crying, etc. We will also not be allowing badges that look weird and in which people look unrecognizable - regardless of it being an official picture.
• Zooms. Any mocks found to be too zoomed in or zoomed out will need to be readjusted, as all badges must be able to resized down to 74x74 properly. In the event a mock does not pass crop standards, it will need to be readjusted until our quality standards are met.
• Final submission. The Awards team reserves the right to re-do a mock if we feel they are not in accordance to all the aforementioned rules.
