December Contest

[AJ]

Come on everyone, it's Christmas, and as a special gift from me to you, the rules are easy!

___________________

Rules: Create a 500x300 Christmas themed graphic. I'm talking jolly here, I don't want any "Christmas on Crack" okay? I want happy, jolly, christmassy images. Snowy windows, Christmas trees, Warm fireplaces with hanging stockings. Okay? If you don't celebrate Christmas then.... sorry?

DEADLINE: DECEMBER 25TH IS THE FINAL DAY FOR ENTRIES, DESPITE THIS BEING THE DECEMBER CONTEST. I AM HAVING IT END ON CHRISTMAS DAY. I WOULDN'T THINK ANYBODY WOULD BE IN THE MOOD TO CREATE A CHRISTMAS GRAPHIC AFTER CHRISTMAS ANYWAY. (in caps for those blind ones amongst you.)

Below is the blah you should already know.

___________________

DO...

...use a reliable host, as the contest will not be judged until after the deadline and any images that don't appear cannot be judged.

...link to your entry, 14-15 entries per page is going to slow this topic down a lot.

DON'T...

...enter more than once. You are however allowed to edit your entry up until December 25th and no later.

...ask to be a judge, please enter instead.

I tried for something simple and creative, never tried making a scene like this before. Isn't your typical graphic, I wanted to make it seem more like one of those 'Seasons Greetings' cards.

its an ok graphic but it really isn't Christmas feeling. other than that i don't like howe her head is above the border

[TheBusinessman]

The whole graphic looked very closed when it was under the border. It just didn't feel right.

Nice... I like the lines at the top and bottom

[Lord Nibbler]

The font's called "Christmas on Crack", which is why I chose it. That, and I couldn't find one that looked good.

Here's mine, I decided to make something simple. In fact, it looks way too simple.

I didn't know how transparent to make the little figure so I guess this could work.

JUDGES NEEDED.

Anyone who did NOT enter and would like to be a judge of this contest. PM me with your scores (out of 10) for each graphic.

Many thanks.

[AJ]

ANYONE please?

I've had myself and two other judges scores. I only need one more. So anybody (even if you don't do graphics, you can still tell what's good looking and what's not) PM me with some scores.

The sooner that happens the sooner we can get on with the January contest and the other thing I have planned.

[AJ]

Here are the results:

Hell have no fury for my judging, sorry guys, I'm brutal, but half of them weren't very Christmas Card-esque, some would've got better scores but some stuff just let it down.
