r/AusPrimeMinisters

A portrait of Joseph Lyons was voted on as this sub’s next icon! Now, onto the next round, for which the next icon will be adopted next Monday.

Provide your proposed icon in the comments (within the guidelines below) and upvote others you want to see adopted! The top-upvoted icon will be adopted and displayed for a fortnight before we make a new thread to choose again!

Guidelines for eligible icons:

* The icon must prominently picture a Prime Minister of Australia or symbol associated with the office (E.g. the Lodge, one of the busts from Ballarat’s Prime Ministers Avenue, etc). No fictional or otherwise joke PMs
* The icon must be of a different figure from the one immediately preceding it. So no icons relating to Joseph Lyons for this round.
* The icon should be high-quality (E.g. photograph or painting), no low-quality or low-resolution images. The focus should also be able to easily fit in a circle or square
* No NSFW, offensive, or otherwise outlandish imagery; it must be suitable for display on the Reddit homepage
* No icons relating to Anthony Albanese
* No memes, captions, or doctored images

Should an icon fail to meet any of these guidelines, the mod team will select the next eligible icon. We encourage as many of you as possible to put up nominations, and we look forward to seeing whose nomination will win!
