Because I'm not going to say it over and over again in half of these subtexts, purple is such an urgh word. Synonyms, damnit, synonyms!
_jade_em_Dreaming within an azurite veilI like the word azurite here. I like the phrase itself, for the signature does look like everything's been veiled in the purple, moreso than the explanation that it's just some mixture of colors (though, technically, it is).Good job.
.:Requiem:. Spellbinding SpectrumI like alliteration. Figurative language is always great for subtexts (excluding onomonpoeia, which is more useless than figurative language... I'll save you the rant). I like the word 'spellbinding' there. Without it, I have to say the subtext would describe the picture enough... but it would suck. It's such a great and rarely seen adjective, too.
Anubis Multicolour GlowEh. That's all it really is. Eh. It works, I guess. But the words are just so boring. I will stress this again-
http://www.thesaurus.com. Whether you think you've just written the world's grandest subtext or not,
PLUG YOUR WORDS IN IT AND SEE WHAT COMES UP. I quickly typed these words in, grabbed a random synonym, and came up with "Kaleidoscopic Brilliance" which I think has much more vibrance than what you have now. I do like how you've gone against just the purple and included all of the colors in your description as well.
Blk Mage Lost within the RaptureReally not feeling it, mate. Sorry. I like how you tried to go for more than what was right infront of your face (the image, obviously) but I honestly don't think this worked out. If you had said "Lost within the Heliotrope" or something like that, which includes both emotions and the image, I think you would have been much better off.
Fiddelysquat From purple's deep and lucid depths
I've wandered far away
The journey wore me out until
I'd faded in to gray.Aw, I like this one. Probably my favorite this round. The signature is very empty, and the two word subtexts would do it any justice, I don't think. This subtext would be great for the signature's both technical and visual aspects. I love the last two lines, for around the edges of the signature most of the color really is fading into grey. The adjectives and wording are superb, and all in all, I really love it.
Forest_Majesty Peerless Pixel PerfectionAs I said with Requiem's, I like alliteration. Not sure if it was purposeful, but hey, if it isn't, just smile and nod. Otherwise I'm really not a fan of this one. The word 'peerless' is a nice addition because it's not something you come across too often, but otherwise, it's just eh. I see the signature as something more of imperfection than perfection, but I guess that can be taken as point of view.
Jen See digital, See coloursThis one is more of an 'eh?' than an 'eh'. It doesn't make that much sense to me, and is really just very blunt. Yes, it has a somewhat digital feel. Yes, it has colors. But what about the digitality? What about the colors? This subtext just really states the obvious for me, I'd rather you had described one of both of the aspects instead of just saying they were there.
mjrinella Mislaid in the vortexOoh, I like this one. Unlike Ammer, I see nothing wrong with the word 'mislaid'. Mislaid means lost, in a blunt sense, which I think works well with this signature. All of your words are great and vibrant, and I like that.
paperfacesX022 Purple MajestyI'll say personally that I'm sorry for a certain person who pointed out an error in this before (and I could say so much more on that, but I'll save you the time). I think the word majesty really doesn't describe the purple in this particular signature well. It's a soft purple, not a bold purple. I suppose it works, though.
pattypus Pixelated PurpleSince I've said it to everyone else, I like the alliteration. But other than that... boring. In this competition, you have to be ready to impress every single round. It doesn't matter at what stage the competition is in, you have to go above and beyond. Any random graphics maker can slap on a subtext, but this contest is for people who can go far beyond that. This doesn't, in my opinion. It's another one of those subtexts that could really be fantastic if it used some more colorful (pun not intended) words.
Stephanie Purple HazeRegardless if you knew or not, I still have to take off points for it being a song. All be warned, you should just chuck your subtext into google and see if lyrics come up for it, because you can bet I'm going to hound you if they do. Besides that, it's okay. It lacks the wow factor, but it works. The word haze describes it very well, I think, much like Jade's "veil" in her subtext.
Twinkle A digital dream...I like the word dream in this subtext. Everyone else went for... basically just random things about the color purple, but I really saw it as a dreamy kind of effect. The word digital is a good tie in adjective, and this one works pretty well.
WIS Digital HazeThis is pratically a direct rip off from other subtexts this round, but there's this whole thing where I have no idea who submitted what subtext first and really don't want to go back and check, so you won't get points taken off for it. I think, personally, this is like Stephanie's with an improvement- it doesn't mention that goddang purple everyone is mentioning. There's really a lot more greenish blue than purple, anyway...
XilOnly we let the purple inEr? Um, I'm just going to go with Ammer and say it looks like the purple is dominating the signature and so the purple is being let in or something? In truth I barely understand this subtext, but it sounds poetic and that words, so there we go.

), but I just would like Ammer to know and the rest of the judges that "peerless" and "perfection" are not contradictions, as Ammer stated. I understand where you are coming from- but Dictionary.com can state it better than me:
