[nines]

I Vote for siggy #1 Tgs. For one its got a good slogan human nothing is impossible. its a good phrase and good spirit lifter lol. Also its very funny and looks like it took a ton of thought and paint skills to make!

[Tee-chan]

Thanks Nines :D

I'd like to vote for ~wiwi~ HOWEVER I don't want him to win otherwise it'll be going against the possible D: since the impossible to win so the possible is to lose! :D so, i want him to lose because if he win it'll be impossible~ <3. (get it? xD)

so my real vote goes to~~ [ 11 ] Terroryst In my opinion it's a very suitable Signature, Good proportions, Colour suited with the scene, etc etc.~ I also think that " I can't save Everyone " is very effective as a side effects of the Image.

which what we all know~ Spidie men and his lover. Uh. idk what's her name M.J? xD anyways yeah. It's good! It's sexy! It's Impossible!(to save everyone).

I was planning to vote for Bou or Skye but.. "

you will be required to make an entry that illustrates that can't be done in this world or something that defies the laws of human nature."

sorry guys >:

but yeah ~ x3 everyone did great~

EXCEPT YOU WIWI AHEUHUAEHUAEHUEAHUA!

Just kidding <3.

[xBiscuit]

I vote - Edelweiss - cause with Angels nothing is Impossible.

Please read the rules.

For me, it came down to Terroryst's and no1i's entries. Both were very well executed, and showcased the theme of this week's SOTW.

However, my vote goes to no1i because his piece stands out to me. His is about catching air and trying to do the impossible of flight as a snowboarder which I would assume all snowboarders aspire to do - basically fly (and do tricks!). The colors used reflect the colors of sky - with the light source in the picture almost like a sun. I get the message the artist is trying to convey and the signature was made beautifully.

Terroryst made a great signature though - I love the text but the monochrome color scheme didn't appeal to my taste as much. It wasn't as polished as I've seen from you in past works. :)

[Ecstatic's]

I would vote for ; [ 6 ] Skyerine.

Well its my opinion btw, its look very cute. && ya Shark are eating meat(so far i no). O_O It's impossible they're eating veggies. :) No tomatoes,carrot are planted in the sea :P Lol

I know I'm not supposed to be a judge in this, but those don't sound like valid reasons lol.

Yush they r :>

Pretty sure that isn't valid.

This must be a joke.

[Emy]

Nines: The animation is really neat, but I'm afraid I don't understand the message or the point of it.

Skyerine: The Basking Shark, and the Whale Shark are both plankton feeders. They have no teeth, and instead open their mouths wide like whales and filter all the plankton and krill that pass through. Therefore, vegetarian sharks are quite possible. The vegetables are cute though.

no1: yours is the most appealing in terms of colors and composition, but that's hardly what the week's theme was about; Humans can fly above the clouds with gliders, and even go into the upper atmosphere with special plains. And since you're demonstrating a skateboarder that is in mid-air, you're sorting of proving your own signature wrong.

Terroryst: The best thing about yoru siggy imo is the message. I'm a big fan of super-heroes, and it's a heart wrenching thing when you become attached to a character so much you feel their pain, and the pain of not being abld to save the very things you love is terrible. Again, though, taking some pictures, sticking them together, and playing around with the colors/effects without actually changing anything on the stocks isn't that impressive for me.

I vote for Tee-Chan: Flawlessly executed ;) Here I was expecting all these cool sigs from everyone about how such-and-such wasn't possible, and the first thing I see is his; I was decently blown away, and out of all the signatures in this competition I've ever seen this one got me to think the most. In fact I'm not sure whether or not to agree with it. I would like to believe that humans can evolve to do anything, and by the same token it's perhaps a bit foolish to wish it were so. I know there was no real work involved here, but it really mind-fucked me, what can I say xD

[Terroryst]

Isn't that what a majority of sigs made are? Lol.

[kuoch]

I would love to give my vote to skyerine. I love her creativity on her sig for this week. Really different from everyone else, really cute also. Just great work overall. So I would love to give me vote for this week to Skyerine.

[iKazuma]

Skyerine: The Basking Shark, and the Whale Shark are both plankton feeders. They have no teeth, and instead open their mouths wide like whales and filter all the plankton and krill that pass through. Therefore, vegetarian sharks are quite possible. The vegetables are cute though.

Even though this is probably true, I'm pretty sure she meant the sharks that eat meat. You got a little too specific, and the sharks as we all usually know, are the ones who fiend for blood and eat meat, and people in some cases. I vote for Skyerine because, imo, a shark eating vegetables is rarely seen, and I don't believe there are vegetables growing in the ocean, anyways. It's very well done, also.

As for the other entries, angels are sorta cliche, and well, people believe in angels so I wouldn't quite call them impossible. There's a whole religion based on God and his angels.. and such, and usually people see what they want to see, because their beliefs and thoughts are mixed into what they want to see. Terroryst's entry was pretty good, also. I didn't pick it cause, well Spiderman's a super-hero, and the belief of not being able to save everyone, shows up in like, every movie revolving around a super hero.

Wait, does that mean you're voting for Skyerine then?

Yah.

[Guest Frost]

I would like to give my vote to [1] Tee-Chan. This signature is simple but yet sweet. It has all it needs by just the words. I believe that nothing is impossible. I think Tee-Chan did great this week. I was expecting insane signatures but I saw this and it didn't have much but yet it has all that it needed. Good job Tee-Chan!

[ramonjordan]

My vote goes for nines.

It shows a mage summoning lightning which is definitely impossible and the Lightning animation looks nice

overall i think it depicts the theme nicely.

[Centurion]

Most appealing sig in the SOTWreally caught my attention. Really shows the theme well, how can a skateboarder fly into the clouds without any machines. So I vote for [ 8 ] no1i

[Emy]

Really guys...some of your reasons simply suck. I can't contain the comment any longer :/

Isn't that what a majority of sigs made are? Lol.

Yeah, hence why I find it usually so difficult/pointless to vote. Now, if people did true photoshop manipulation to change the stocks significantly that would be more impressive.

[Terroryst]

Well on behalf of everybody that doesn't create, draw, or manipulate their stocks/renders, I would like to apologize to you that we're not fortunate enough to possess the artistic capabilities and creative perfection that you have.
