Welcome to Round 20! I cannot thank you all enough for making this comm come this far.
For this round, we'll be doing things differently. Special thanks to

juliet316 who suggested that we have a 20in20 style round using themes from previous round. I've taken the idea and added in some of my own. The post is a little long but please check the rules. :)

There are TWO general themes here to choose from:

1: Joys of 2020 or 2. Previous Rounds

1.Joys of 2020:

As this is the last challenge of the year(WOW!) let’s look back on the better part of this year. When things got tough we all tried to find ways to keep ourselves and those around us lifted and happier. We didn’t make it all the way to the end of 2020 without hope, after all! :D

So here’s to making icons of things that made YOU happy or gave you joy in 2020 and all that we’re looking forward to.

Spending time with your family? Your pet? A tv show or a movie that just cheers you up? Did a celebrity you love win an award? Looking forward to a vacation or a meet up with your friends? You can see some examples below to get an idea.Hover over the icons.

2. Previous Rounds:
If you missed out an older round or just want to make icons for fun, then check out the themes from every round except the special round under the cut.Choose any ONE round or mix themes from various rounds and make TEN icons. They're in picture format so you can save the info on your computer.

( Themes from previous Rounds! )

Rules for this round:

Sign up with your username.

For a set of TEN: Create icons using themes from 'Joys of 2020' or a round(or a mix of themes from various rounds) from 'Previous Rounds'.
