THIS ROUND'S THEME WAS "ANIME"

When voting, try to provide an explanation of some sort as to why you feel a particular entry deserves to win. If the explanation is entirely stupid, ie: "It has bubz" then I will not count your vote.

Voting will end on Monday, March 15th, by 12:00 AM Central Time, or at least until I count the votes. If there is a tie between two entries, I will be making the deciding vote.

ALL MEMBERS MAY VOTE IN THIS CONTEST. IF YOU ARE A PARTICIPANT, YOU MAY NOT VOTE FOR YOUR PIECE, AND PLEASE DO NOT MAKE IT OBVIOUS WHICH PIECE IS YOURS.


VOTE FOR THREE ENTRIES, and you MUST Vote for THREE.

Entry A


Entry B


Entry C


Entry D


Entry E

Aw, crap. 12 AM Central time. Meaning exclusion. D:

Regardless.

A: The colors are matching. But that's about all I can see. I like the smoothness of the background and the unobtrusiveness of everything, but I don't see anything done to the render, Vegeta. Which looks alright, but it's a bit underwhelming. Nothing bad about it.

B: My favorite out of all of them. The blending is wonderful, and it has a creamy flair. Placement is perfect, text is simple, background is very well done. It has a certain elegance.

C: I don't see much. :P The background is too simple, and the text could've been better. Then again, the simplicity fits with the message of the piece. It just doesn't contend that well with the others.

D: A bit small. I think if the creator made the piece bigger, there would've been more room to be creative. The blending is nice and easy, but I don't really like those blurry, faded spots over Lacus. It's alright, and you can tell this person knows what they're doing, but it's really too small to depict much.

E: I know who this is. :] Nevertheless, the piece shows basic knowledge of Photoshop -- a simple blur and an equally simple background. Still in the development of learning.

I vote for A, B, and D. But good job, everyone.

Read the rules again or your vote doesn't count.

Also: Entry C looks like a screenshot banner. Account for it too lulz.

B, C, and D ftw. They're shiny and nice. <3

E's too blurry and A, despite having a kewl background, is just a bit plain. The render doesn't really blend in at all.

Good job, guys~

vote: B, C,D
a the random circles bug me...

Thanks for being patient with me. Apologies for my blunder.

I hope you're not being sarcastic .__.

A- It's good, but yeah, the splatter brush isn't that great.

B- Dammit you, it's good. I like the piece, what else can I say?

C- Probably could have done more to it, but hell, at least you didn't ruin the screenshot. Text is eh, but it fits.

D- Worst piece. It's nice, ect.

E- The blur is too obvious, otherwise it's better than your others.

B:
+ Nice and smooth
+ It just looks... good
- Kind of... busy in the top right

C:
+ Nice text
+ Simplicity fits well with the overall theme
- Just a little too simple. Doesn't look like much was done

D:
+ Everything's pretty well blended
+ Light source matches overall theme well
- A little lacking. Yeah, it's pr0, but I expected moar. ;-;

ABC because E sucks.

I'm being sincere. Though it would be easy to interpret it either way.

i hate you too Feez :P yeah you can tell i forgot to do a couple things...

B, A, and D.

B because I like how it blends the two pictures quite well.
A because I like the crisp look that isn't overly bombarded by blur and other similar effects.
D because I like the simplistic feel of it.

Damn....A is the BEST!

One vote for A
