The winner of our second challenge (Books) is:

Lykaios!

Congratulations!  And thanks to all the contestants this round, I know I had a hard time choosing my favorite.  To view all of this months entries, have a look at the Challenge #2 poll.

As our winner, Lykaios got to choose the theme for challenge #3, which will be Fall Harvest.  Here are the rules:

Avatar Design Challenge Rules

• Challenge begins today, September 14, 2007.  You do not have to "register" or otherwise state your intent to play, but it's nice if you do so so I can see what kind of response the theme is getting.
  
  
• The challenge theme will be chosen by the winner of the previous round.  Lykaios won the last round, and selected Fall Harvest as the theme for this challenge.
  
  
• Players have one month to submit their design (i.e., until October 14).  Please submit your entries by uploading them to an image service such as Photobucket, and then inlining them into a reply to the challenge theme post (use [img] ... [/img]).  Also, post your idea for the next month's theme with your entry, so we can keep everything on schedule.
  
  
• Multiple entries are permitted, but please mark one "preferred" entry, in case there are many entrants and the list gets too unwieldy.
  
  
• Voting will take place between the end of the challenge and the beginning of the next round.  All interested members are encouraged to vote for their favorites.  The winner and new theme will be announced on the first day of the next round.
  
  
• Please review the Avatar Guidelines and be sure your entry meets them.  Also, please do not use copyrighted images when making your entry, unless you have permission from the copyright holder.
  
  
• By participating in the challenge, you are giving other members permission to use your entry as their avatar.  Please don't enter avatars that you don't want others to use.  Exception: you may enter your own personal avatar if it was made new for the contest.

As our winner, Lykaios got to choose the theme for challenge #3, which will be Fall Harvest. 

So, I guess I am first in this time as opposed to second to last. The wonders of procrastinating on course work to do something I enjoy . So, anyway, here goes.

And my theme idea for next competition is (in order to be terribly original ) Winter Reflections.

[Dania]

Congrats Lykeos!!

I love this month's theme...I'll see what I can do!

[Juni]

Congrats, Lykaios! You did a beautiful job.

Procrastination is a great motivator!

Just a general reminder that we're halfway to the end of this challenge.  I'll try and get mine done up in the next few days.

*contemplates putting up another one, just for the heck of it*

Well, here's my entry for this month's challenge:



My suggestion for next months theme: Seeing that the general 'winter' theme is already taken, I'll go for Myths and Legends instead. 

[AIONIA]

Here it is more contest filler...

 

Theme next time: Flower

[Beachglass]

I'll try and get mine done up in the next few days.

Or not.    Still, here it is:



My theme idea is Hibernation or Gestation.

Poll should go up in a few hours, or as soon as I get back online.  I'm out on the West Coast and my boyfriend is coming from Korea tomorrow, so I might be a few hours late.  As always, entries will be accepted anytime until the poll is up.
