Stampsyne's Avatar Contest CLOSED / VIEW Winners!

Sun Jan 23, 2005 10:54 pm

Post or PM me a trade url (offer up a Pink Poogle Toys so I know which one) or your Neopets username to claim your prizes.

View all Entries and winners! Don't forget that all entries get a prize!

How was the contest judged? Well I could not decide for myself, so I dolled out chips to my friends based on how much I liked them (I gave Urk one to make him go away) and then many played poker with said chips. Later, they used the chips to vote for thier favorites. My boyfriend, who I gave a huge stack of chips

put it all on Lodi's. Unfortunately for the dragon entry, my BF sucked at poker. Urk won a ton of chips and thought the whole 'smell' thing was hilarious; earning everconfused the 'best in show' title. He also put a lot in Br00ster's disqualified entry. I think that if watericesage's entry had been green or brown, it would have been a bigger hit

Since the girls stayed far from Urk and didn't play poker, they had a ton of chips and voted for cute ones and the faeries ... mostly one that winked. The majority of the guys left over were diehard Link fans & thought that Puck's entry was just wierd enough for a few chips. The overall favorite was Scholastic's set, but I cannot post it on PPT without being warned or banned for saying a certain smurf (yes, I actually typed smurf) word. The surprise winner was Laelya because small amounts of chips where repeatedly thrown in that pile. Some may have been because of the disqualified entry which everybody LOVED. I dunno.

I wish I might have saved a few votes for myself, but then I would still be deciding.

Hey first to enter

. Anyway, this is my first time doing animation on a set, and it isn't that great, but hey it is a start. Well here is a set, not that good, but a set none the less

I'll get started searching for a good theme! I'm excited about this. Expect an entry from me within the next week or so.

Not my best, but pretty good I think.

I was trying out alot of new stuff on this set.
Hope you like it!
The sig might not look it good, the image that I used wasn't the best.
I couldn't find good images.

Haha.. okay, I was just kidding about sometime during the week.

Here's my first try, I might edit it later if I make something I like better. The only thing I'm worried about with this set is the size (approx. 112 kb). I've used my crappy animation optimizer and got it down to about 69 kb, but hopefully someone out there would be able to compress it better without reducing the image quality quite as much (I'm posting the unoptimized version for now.

)

I know the borders and edges are ugly, but it seems I'm just no good at this. An sorry for the lack of animation on the techo clock, I had it animated but I couldn't get it to run smoothly and it looked like someone had killed it

. I'm sure someone else will make an ainmated techo clcok for you though

Somebody asked me about my taste in humor.

How about

"I lov-ed you piggy! I lov-ed you!!!"
