GOTW #5 Voting!

Wow, the entries this week have all been really great, it's going to be a tough call on who ends up winning this one.

Everybody should show their appreciation by voting for their favorites here, don't you agree? :urahara

Would be kind of nice if there was more branching out from signatures and avatars - I want to see your work full-sized, in all its glory. Give yourselves a bit more room to create :nuts

Example Vote
Sigs:
Aizen (2 Points) - Really brings out the theme of world domination and standing in heaven. Almost makes me feel like you're being serious about it ... hey, wait a minute ...
Gin (1 point) - Beautiful use of contrast and colors, but your stock image of dead Hitsugaya could've used a more thorough cleaning.

Avatars:
Byakuya (2 Points) - I love the effects and lighting in your work! Especially the part that highlights your bishie hair and dreamy eyes ... *swoons*
Renji (1 Point) - It's ... well, it's interesting ... and umm, I appreciate the minimalism too. But I have to be honest here, it looks like it was drawn by a baboon and a snake.

[Gol D. Roger]

Sigs:

2 points - Rock

Just really well done, well blended, and eye-catching. Looks like the picture was meant to be that way. Aesthetically pleasing.

1 point - Fuzakeru

Also very well blended, though a little less "wow" factor than Rock's. Kudos for the image choice, I really like it.

Avatars:

2 points - Chuzpe.x

Really love this one. At first glance, Tsubasa's may appear better from a technical perspective, but when you take a second look at yours, you actually see how cool it is, and how many different facets (no pun intended) the image has. I also like how you gave a literal "reflection" within the picture.

1 point - Tsubasa

Very pleasing to the eye, no particular flaws to speak of. I just think it falls a little short on originality, even though technically it's excellent.

[Poiison]

Signatures:

Rock | 2 points | It's eye-catching. With the burst of light and the nicely blended background. The idea, though used, is very nice and it is overall a great entry.

Tsubasa | 1 point | I knew you were gonna come up with this loveee 8D It's just the text and the blue area isn't just doing it for me. I mean I love the idea and all, but it could be a bit better. :D

Avatars:

Tsubasa | 2 points | same idea, but i like the more vertical style and how they are faced back to back and the font color change and everything 8D
lovely work.

Chuzpe.x | 1 point | really nice idea and something I can really understand, but the text doesn't strike me as much and the shattered glass thing doesn't make me think shattered glass instantaneously.

[Frosted Heart]

Signatures

Chuzpe.x - (2 points) Very fun, very colourful, and very cute!

Tsubasa - (1 point) A very good sig, though the text was a little hard to read. (Is it lyrics from Mulan?)

Avatars

Tsubasa - (2 points) Nice composition, border, and use of a light gradient! Lenore (sp) and Yuna look good together. XD

Chuzpe.x - (1 point) It took me a minute to figure out what I was looking at, but I'm using the Dark Ichigo theme so the black kinda blended in with your avvie. ^^; I like the font you used at the right side of the avatar.

[Orihime-Chan]

Sigs:
Tsubasa - 2 pts. Nice colors and design..
Shinigami13 - 1 pt – Though it's not reflection but it's close.

Avas:
Tsubasa – 2 pts – The text and stock placement are done nicely.
Chuzpe.x – 1 pt – Looks good, but I don't like the border..

[Kolbertt]

Sigs:
Rock (2 points) - Everything, from the render, to the effects and the colors used, fits perfectly.

Fuzakeru (1 point) - Two sides of a same coin? -p The color also goes with Aizen's

Avatars:
Tsubasa (2 points) - FFFF (Fellow Final Fantasy Fan) - A nice idea that blends well into a nice avatar.
Chuzpe.x (1 point) - Honestly, the mirror could have had a little more work -

[Dizzy]

Sigs:
Tsubasa - 2 Points: Liking the use of positive and negative space, nice stock, and your take on the theme is fantastic as well. Overall, a beautifully-crafted and profound sig.

Rock - 1 Point: Epic battles yes plz. Only thing I don't like is that Ichigo's hair is a mass of sharp pixels. Maybe it's just personal taste, but it kind of puts me off.

Avys:
Chuzpe.x - 2 Points: Maybe it isn't quite as eye-pleasing as the other, but I like the idea behind yours more.

Tsubasa - 1 Point: A nice design, but it looks like more effort could've been put into it.

[Kolbertt]

And we've got a winner!

On signatures; I'd like to quote Bart Simpson -
Good Old Rock. Nothing beats Rock:fu

And on Avatars - Tsubasa wins!

BTW - I'm slightly frustrated by this weeks GOTW --- Oh, wait, there was NO GOTW:zomg!

I'll go unleash my wrath on the new contest :hm
