Interesting cutouts

What I don't want to see

Overdone animation (Some text animation is okay, but I DON'T want moving pictures UNLESS it's subtle. And when I say subtle, I mean nearly unnoticeable).

Something unoriginal. I'm not going to pick your entry for a prize if it's just like any other entry in the competition, I want specialty.

Too girly. I only like pink when it's bright, in-your-face pink. Don't give me pastels unless it REALLY matches with the set.

Prizes

One first place winner will win 50,000 neopoints in prizes. There MIGHT be runners up, might not. For now just count on one winner.

It all ends...

April 22nd. I have an engagement that evening that I'm not looking forward to, and choosing this will cheer me up. The contest will be extended IF I think there is a possibility for a worth amount of sets to come in.

Since your last set contest got cancelled:


It's one of my favourite sets that I've done. :) I like the simplicity of it.

[Bangel]

ONE MORE NOTE-

Unless you REALLY need the space, I need to hotlink the entries for the main post UNTIL I decided to use them as my own. However, if you CAN'T keep it on your server for two weeks, then I can still transfer it.

And Nikita, I love that set, and I have ever since my old set contest went kapoof. It's all around awesome looking, PLUS it has Gretchen Wilson on it- which is a great point right there.

[stampsyne]

Avril and white tigers? Why not!

"White Noise"

Ooh, that's nice, and demonstrates my limit to animation- the kind you have there is exactly the type of subtle/text animation I was talking about. Good job.

[Harmonize]

Not one of my best, but eh.

Oh my dear God, that is awesome! I love the colors, it's just so... pretty! Thanks much, Ayse.

[everconfused]

first try, not sure about the cutouts



EDIT 5/7/05 - imageshack is acting wonky again ... the sig seems to have disappeared, so I reuploaded it, just to be safe. Will go check my Spiderman entry too!

I'm impressed with the great entries *wishes some of the talent would rub of on me.

Wow, I just love that picture! Where did you get it? The text is really pretty and suiting, thanks a bunch for entering, it's a nice set. (Oh yeah, and I love the cutouts). PLUS you uploaded it on Imageshack... which really has nothing to do with the set, I just like Imageshack.

Finally, some Will Smith! Not to mention I, Robot is in there too. Double points for double topics. =D I don't know why, but I think the avatar is the best, and it's a really good set, thanks for entering.

[Cleo_Lo]

These turned out interesting

[cat1205123]

Hmm....It's slightly different than my normal style as I didn't add any subtext to it...but I think I like it!

I have a slight problem, however. I'm trying to convert to PNGs so as to save quality, but the siggy ends up being about 300 bytes over the limit.

Ah well. I'm afraid you'll have to go with the slightly grainy-er .gif. Sorry.

[DM was on fire!]

I'll probably make you a few Kelly Clarkson sets, Gretchen Wilson...*gasp* You're a Fresh Prince fan! I'll make you one of those too! =D

That's unique, I love the border. Good job.

Wowza, I love it! The best way I can describe it is... beauty, but not overdone beauty? I love it, thanks so much for entering.

Okay, I wanted to do 2 sets. One with a tiger and white tiger which didn't come out so great (I know it's a bit strange that the avatar is just fur, but I thought that since there wasn't enough room, I'd do some sort of zebra fur thing xD, and one from I, Robot. Since the first set didn't come out too great, I didn't try to make it much better by doing animations, sorry xD I know it won't win anyway but oh well Anyway, I tried to do the I, Robot set but it didn't really come good either. Anyway, maybe I'll try later another set
