Nikita's Set Contest -- WINNERS ANNOUNCED :D

[Nikita]

My first ever set contest!
I really need some new sets and I suck at requesting graphics, cause I never know which image to request, subtext to choose, etc. So I might as well have a set contest and let you all suprise me! This way I can say what I like...without actually having to find an image for someone to work with. :P Lazy me.

<b><u>Prizes</u></b>
<b>First</b> - <i>50,000 NPs</i>
<b>Second</b> - <i>25,000 NPs</i>
<b>Third</b> - <i>12,500 NPs</i>
<b>Runner Ups</b> - <i>5,000 NPs</i>
<b>Everyone Else</b> - <i>1,000 NPs to anyone who did not place, but entered (per person, not per set)</i>

<b><u>Some things I'd like to see (in no specific order) are:</u></b>
<b>Photography</b>
Beaches with palm trees
Sunsets
Fireworks

Flowers with vibrant colours.

If there's something I didn't list that you think I would like, give it a try. You never know. :)

<b><u>Guidelines</u></b>
- I only want a small amount of Neo sets. Lots of everything else though (espc. the photography)!
- Everyone can participate, and enter as many sets as they like.
- I'm not a fan of animated sets, unless it's something like animated text, or something subtle, and even then..too much is not good.
- I don't like signatures that are 400x100. They just seem too bulky to me. 400x90 and smaller is fine though (I know not much of a difference :P).
- Nikita has to appear on the av or sig. Having it on both is optional (but preferred)
- Subtext is optional. If you can't think of anything, then thats ok :)
- Cut-outs are nice. But don't overdo it.

<b><u>Deadline</u></b>
- The closing date is July 16th at 3pm NST (Neopian Standard Time, check neopets.com and work out what the time difference for you would be. If you need help, just ask me), giving you two weeks to submit something.
- If you really want to enter, and can't meet the deadline, let me know! I can make some exceptions and extend the deadline a bit. So don't be afraid to ask. :)
- Give me at least a day or two to judge the sets. I may judge them that day, or I may need a couple of days.

Have fun :) If you have any questions, just ask.

I'm not great at making sets.... But I did what I could-- it's good practice, and I enjoy it.
