xBiscuit Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 I vote for 05. Simple but very detailed. The font also goes with the image and the background works well with the whole render.
Nyanko Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 I have to vote 5 also. The colors are a good choice and design is simple, but to the point. It basically stands out the most to me.
nines Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 I vote on #5 to. Great work dean. It sticks out most from the crowd with a nice bad ass theme to it, the colors are perfect and fit the phoenix creature perfectly. Only thing I didn't like that much about the siggy was the Font, its a bit to much of a bland font and it dosn't fit with the bad ass theme of a phoenix.
plotus2 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Voting for place in ascending order: [05] [08] [07] [06]
Rayray Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 I vote for #05. It might be the simplest in the bunch, but it stands out for some reason. The color combination of the sig was great and fits the theme better than the other entries, for me anyway.
no1i Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Yeah, I have to go with 5 why? Stands out the most, different shape unlike the regular rectangle, creative for the idea of making the shape of a phoenix. The colors are also nice for the render.
Terroryst Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Voting for place in ascending order: [05] [08] [07] [06] So that means you vote for 6? Anyways, you'll have to elaborate on which one you vote for.
» Pat Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 My vote goes to Barnzy; contestant #3. Though I'd like to see some more modifications done to the original stock, it appeals most to me. The colours are vibrant and the overall task was executed well. Also; this participant is one of the few that has actually put some thought into typography. I like it.
plotus2 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 So that means you vote for 6? Anyways, you'll have to elaborate on which one you vote for. I am voting for No. 5 for the 1st place. It has nice color tone and the design is idly simple yet catchy.
Terroryst Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 I'm going with 8. The tranquil nature of the Zmey appeals to me, as you would never see that if it actually encountered another being. The color scheme flows nicely together, and the lines/symbols on the left side of the sig look like they could be scriptures, which adds a feel to the mythological theme.
Ethereal Posted January 24, 2010 Author Report Posted January 24, 2010 I'll be giving my vote tomorrow because my head hurts too much today. I think I might be changing the voting system later on tomorrow as well.
Adum* Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 I adore Muffin Master's work, but I gotta go with Anarii [5]. First time seeing it was like "..." -speechless. I like how he stepped out of the ordinary and it's simplicity. It gives me that idea, that phoenix are calm, yet fierce -type of thing you don't want to mess with. *I just feel like saying this to Devotion's entry, it always makes me laugh. The reaction of those two people and the background. xD
xBiscuit Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 I'll be giving my vote tomorrow because my head hurts too much today. I think I might be changing the voting system later on tomorrow as well. what do you mean by changing. ;___;
Ethereal Posted January 24, 2010 Author Report Posted January 24, 2010 What I'm thinking of isn't going to be a bad thing, but something that will just give other contestants a few votes as well.
Gauntlet Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 I vote for 5. It's the only thing worth looking at. :\
Terroryst Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 I vote for 5. It's the only thing worth looking at. :\ Gonna have to elaborate on that.
kuoch Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 I vote for #5 Looks really unique, Great pick on render/design and really stands out, out of all the others.
Terroryst Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 Lol, you guys won't be able to change people being bribe, suggested, or persuaded into voting for others.
Ethereal Posted January 24, 2010 Author Report Posted January 24, 2010 Here's my vote: [ 08 ] Muffin Master Although the entry is very large, I do feel like it embraces mythology. It's extremely detailed, and I feel like a lot of effort has been put into this. The colours flow so well together having a peaceful and calm feel. I feel like the touch of abstract on it adds to the theme, as well as the pattern that's on it. It kind of adds like an ancient theme in a way, fitting the mythology theme.
Anarii Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 Are you guys suggesting something? I didn't suggest/bribe anyone.. =\
Ethereal Posted January 25, 2010 Author Report Posted January 25, 2010 Topic closed; voting topic will be up later. And just a heads up to everybody, there's a discussion topic and a SOTW theme suggestion topic just in-case you want anything changed or want to see a theme you want for next time.
