Art competition - photo category

[Jax]

Here we go! You may choose 20 of your favourite pictures to vote for in this poll. And, though I hate to ask it, because we have had some people vote not entirely honestly, please make sure you vote for no more than 20 as it is possible for hosts to check up on that. If you would like to vote for less than 20, then that is fine :D
Here is the link for the page of photo art where you can see all of these lovely pictures - and don't forget you can click on any thumbnail to see the picture in it's full glory! ;)

Or you can simply click on the link of the picture you'd like to see in the poll! (please, if I've got one wrong, let me know asap!)
This poll will close in 7 days from the posting date and time :D
Enjoy your poll! :ok:

[Wolfegar]

With so many choices and so many votes to use up, this was still tough. Even so, I think I only used up 19 votes.

[Nefermiw]

Voted :D

[Lisa Lewis]

[JayEgo]

Think I managed to opt for just six in the end... Not that more didn't deserve it but I was trying to be very selective!

Can never go wrong with nature pictures where I'm concerned. Very difficult to decide though..........all enjoyable pictures :wave:


Here's my vote: http://www.imsmultimedia.co.uk/Images/ArtComp/Jax_entrancetolandover.jpg

Very creative naming the pic and...........loved those books ;)

[Kalli]

I voted. So many cool pics to chose from. :D

[Keita]

[Sbrock]

Voted :) Great Pics! I must have misunderstood what the contest was all about... Ah well... Next time!

[Jax]

What exactly didn't you understand SBrock? :( There are currently two seperate art contests running though don't forget. This one, which has 3 seperate polls for the 3 different categories, and the one we're doing for pictures of Anne for the home page which will be closing in about 2 weeks time (after DCon ends). :)

[Jax]

Poll has been extended for two days. :)

[queenrider melody]

I used 18 of my photo votes. It was so hard to choose.

[Jax]

End of competition time almost, and I have a wee bit of news for everyone. I decided that with all the wonderful submissions, to offer a third prize for each category of another magnet. You can view the prizes here, and soon the page will be updated with the winners! http://www.imsmultimedia.co.uk/Images/ArtComp/artcomp-winners.html
There have been so many wonderful entries I would love for everyone to win a prize but we all know that competitions don't work like that. So I'd like to say to those who don't win a prize, your picture/s was/were great too! It's just difficult to make a choice when there are so many wonderful ones to choose from. :hugs:
I hope that everyone else has enjoyed these competitions as much as I have! :bouncy:

[Jax]

Hooray hooray! :woohoo: The competition is closed, I will get the pages updated as soon as I can with the winners! :D
1st prize - Beisla's 'Two peas in a pod' with 27 votes.
2nd prize - Cheryl's 'Shadow twin' with 26 votes.
3rd prize - Bronzie's 'Splash' with 23 votes.

There are several reasons for these - I know that my picture got the most voted, but I donated the prizes /and/ I also have the statue and the magnets so it's not worth me winning :blush: I just wanted to play, I didn't think I would win, and I thank everyone very much for voting for me!
I realise that Kalina would have been placed third place with 25 votes, but I decided back during submissions that one person can only win one prize, and Kalina has won first prize in the Anne art competition :D

Congratulations everyone! :good:

(I hope that my reasons for placings to go further down the list make sense to everyone!)


Beisla, a special note for you, I saw you mention in the willet that you entered for the dragon magnets, and you are the first prize winner so I am giving you the choice, if you would like the dragon statue, then that will be your prize, but if you'd prefer a magnet then that will be your prize. If you do choose the magnet then the statue will go to the next winner, Cheryl! :D

[Bronze-Dragonrider]

:eek: WOW!!!! I never expected I'd win anything when I entered those pictures! Thank you sooooo much everyone who voted, and congratulations to Beisla and Cheryl! :applause:

I also think Kalina deserves a big nod, even though she just gets the one prize, she got votes in the top 3 people in every category, that's a big achievement! :bow:

[Purpura]

Congratulations to the winners.

:O Awww... thanks Bronzie!! :hugs:

And congrats to you! I really do like that picture of yours... I think you deserve it! :good:

[Beisla]

Wow, I'm so happy about this! :D So many wonderful pics, at the start I really didn't think I'd have a chance of winning, (though I do agree that Jax's pic was one of the best, really) though of course I always hoped...

Congrats to everybody! :applause:
