August EMTC! + 15 Entries! + CLOSED!

That right, elements!  Be it the basic ones of earth, water, fire, and air...or the more atomic ones, like oxygen, nitrogen, and potassium, this theme is everywhere!  And it is versatile enough that you should be able to have lots of fun with it!  Perhaps your emote is a chemistry teacher, or is a chemical on a chart used to teach. Maybe it can control fire..or is made of water? (:droplet: anyone? ).  Or perhaps you can come up with your own form of element? (what is the glowy bit in a lightbulb? ) Wow me with your grasp of this word.  As long as you can defend it is "elemental", it's all good!

_{Theme from a news article written by Oktanas.  It was a great choice in theme, hence why I use it.}

Only new submissions for this.  The emote must be submitted after the theme has been announced.

You can enter as many times as you want.

Please include a brief explanation to the theme, if it isn't already completely obvious in the deviation.

Please submit your piece in the form of a .png or a .gif.   

The piece must include an emoticon of some sort.  Kinda the point, really.

Collaborations are accepted, with the prize being split between the artists should it place.

Note  your contest entry to SparklyDest, or leave a comment on this journal.

Deadline August 29th, 2011, midnight EST
