Crazy Man Dan Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 This weeks theme, as chosen by last weeks winner aile, is Valentine's Day. The Winners: ------------------------------------------------------------------ Alrighty! All 41 votes have been tallied, and the results are it. So... it's time to let the results out! The results: 1st: -Expiration- (8 votes) 2nd: MadJik (7 votes) 3rd: Fire_Ants (6 votes) T'was a much closer race this time, but -Expiration- pulled off the win! Just out of the running with 5 votes was The_Lionhearted, who was my personal favorite ( :wink: ), and there were many others who won over a voter or two. Thanks to everyone for participating, and thanks to all who voted! You can head over to the Discussion thread and chat about the next theme. It will be -Expiration-s duty to choose the next theme by the end of this Sunday the 3rd of February. Thanks one and all for participating! See ya' next time. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Notes: ------------------------------------------------------------------ Unfortunately, I must disqualify andypandy - they mention that stock images were used in their sig, but did not link to any of them as is required by the rules. In the interest of full disclosure, the original sig which olav.k.m submitted for the competition was 151px tall. Because the infraction was an oversight on their part, and because it was so very small, I sanctioned one edit of the image to remove the extra pixel from the height, provided no other changes were made. I have examined the edited image and compared it to the original, a copy of which was saved beforehand, and no other changes were found other than the sanctioned crop. As a result, the image is still eligible for this competition. If you have a problem with my allowing a submission to be edited, I'm sorry, but I just can't be that much of a hardmasterson. Perhaps if BoltBait were running the competition... ------------------------------------------------------------------ This week's entries: These entries are listed in alphabetical order. ------------------------------------------------------------------ aguba ------------------------------------------------------------------ Bugster ------------------------------------------------------------------ cjmcguinness ------------------------------------------------------------------ Crimson ------------------------------------------------------------------ D.C.

A day to celebrate with your sweetheart, or a day to sit alone in darkness envying all those who have sweethearts ( :wink: ). Whichever your predicament, it is your challenge this week to create a signature to show just how much <3 you have. Use this challenge to get your lubs flowing ahead of time so you're ready when February 14th comes around. You can use your sig to <3 PDN, <3 your sweetheart, <3 your XBOX360, whatever you choose! Convince everyone of your luvs to win their votes in 75000 pixels* or less! The deadline for this competition is 23:59 (11:59pm) (PST) on Sunday, January 27th. To see the current time in PST to compare it with your local time, click here (WorldTimeServer.com). Check the SOTW Rules! If your entry breaks any of the rules it will be disqualified. ------------------------------------------------------------------ [*:1f49okr0] Max sig dimensions follow the board's max sig dimensions, 500x150. [*:1f49okr0] No crude / offensive language, pics, et cetera. [*:1f49okr0] Sig must follow the set theme. [*:1f49okr0] Only one entry per person and no modifications to your image are allowed after submitting your entry. [*:1f49okr0] You must post the URLs to any and all stock images used in your sig. [*:1f49okr0] You are allowed one post in this topic. That post should include your sig, links to your source images, and, if you feel so inclined, a hearty bowl of soup to keep me warm 'n toasty. Placeholders (empty-posting now, editing in a link to your sig later) are not permitted. ------------------------------------------------------------------ This thread is for posting your entries only! If you wish to talk about one of the entries you can do so here. If a comment or other non-entry post is mistakenly made in this thread, it will be moved without penalty to the discussion thread. Just don't be surprised when it magically jumps over there. :wink: Good luck all, and thanks for playing! *75000 = 500 x 150. You cannot perversely twist this number to justify making a 600 pixel-wide sig as long as it's only 125 pixels tall. I know most of you would be fine without this being explicitly stated, but there are those of you that'd try to use this as a loophole, just to prove you're smarter than I.
