NCT 2020 awards voting thread

Welcome to 2020 Award Season's voting thread for NCT. Here we will suggest and vote on the new badges for our boys.
Please note that we will not be creating badges for Sungchan and Shotaro in this thread, I will make a separate voting thread for them when there is more material.

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.

OP rules:
No material older than 2018, the boys have been very active and most of the older material was used in last year's badge voting. However, if necessary, this rule can be pretty flexible depending on the circumstances.
All current badges will be included in final voting.
Badge holders will be given a double vote in both preliminary and final votings. However, you must have claimed the badge before October 4th to be counted.

I wasn't sure if you guys are interested in changing our group and subunit badges, I'm quite fond of them myself, but I'll give you guys the opportunity gffdgfdfdsfsd You have until October 7th to submit if that's the case!

Also am wondering if you guys would prefer to do this unit wise or by age order, let me know which one you prefer​

since some members are in more than one unit, maybe doing it age wise-oldest to youngest-would be good? idk.

Seems like most people want a schedule done in age order so I will have one finished later tonight.
Our deadline is more than a month away so we should be fine.
