Ammer's Set Contest [First Place: 100k, Second Place: 50k!]

Thu Apr 12, 2007 6:42 am

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Ammer's Set Contest! The original title of the thread, I'm sure has left you dazzled but alas there is more to read!

As I've spent my time on PPT, I've always wanted a set to remain a permanent set of mine. I don't enjoy changing sets as it's distracting to me, other PPTers and I really enjoy having one set to identify with rather than 30. Lately, I've been sporting two sets, an American Idol one (Simply for the season) and an Evanescence set (Made by moogie) which is absolutely amazing. But, through my searching, I have not found the set. Basically, "the set" would be the set that I would never change and would love to have it as my permanent set.

The only set that has ever come close to "the set" has been a set made by Noelle (From PPT) from a set contest I had a WHILE ago,

As you can see, it was simple yet elegant and I absolutely loved it. Another set which dazzled me was Silja's (From PPT) "My Immortal" set,

Obviously more complex but these two examples show how two extremely different sets can be chosen.

Anywho, let's get to the categories!

Music

Evanescence (Good website for photos: http://www.evanescencewebsite.com > Gallery. They will ask you for password and account, enter Ammer as user and PPT as password.) (Also, I would love sets with the theme of either "Lithium" and "Sweet Sacrifice". "Lithium" isn't really on the website I gave you so you may have to scout around for it)
Kelly Clarkson (Photos from "Breakaway" era on)
Melissa O'Neil
Lindsay Lohan
Hilary Duff (Photos from her "Dignity" era; "With Love")
Nelly Furtado ("All Good Things (Come To An End)" and "Explode" are my favourites, but all other photos/videos are good too)
Within Temptation (Photos from the "Heart of Everything" era)
Jojo
Chris Richardson of American Idol
Ashley Tisdale
Justin Timberlake
Avril Lavigne (Lyrics from "Innocence" would be cool, but not necessary)

Anything that's elegant, really nice looking, beautiful. Just, something that's really nice, I don't know how else to put if. If you think you found something nice, make a set of it and enter it or ask me.

Me!

Because I'm very self absorbed (I'm kidding!) I thought it'd be neat to have a set of myself made, possibly. Here are the pictures where I look semi-decent,

Red Ammer

Shades Ammer

Black&White Ammer

Cool Ammer

Just Ammer

MOD Ammer

All sets made from these pictures should JUST have me in them aside from the last one "MOD Ammer". I like the picture with all of us!

First Place: 100,000nps
Runner Up: 50,000nps

And I'll award 1-10k to sets I really liked but couldn't choose for either first place or runner up!

If I can find some spare time, I'll try to enter, and I'll even try to do a you-themed set!

Haha, I have a set with my picture as the signature :P It's not conceited, it's okay to love yourself from time to time :D

dude, either your thread title is wrong or the info in the prizes section is wrong as they say different things...

Hm, I love these two lines,

"I can't hold on to me, wonder what's wrong with me?"

AND

"I wanna stay in love with my sorrow, but God, I want to let it go"

Hope it helps!

Edit:

If anyone wants to make a set with an animated video like the "My Immortal" set, a video clip of "Lithium" can be found here,
