[Ellipsis]

What the hell. There should be a law against entering this many good entries in here.

Anyway, I'm torn between H, E, and G. They're all fantastic, but I really REALLY love the textwork in H, so it gets my vote.
FANTASTIC job to everyone though.

[０１２０]

Entry B. Great background and everything looks amazing in it. *-*

[Feferi]

Gosh darn it. >_< I can honestly say I like Entry B, but what made me back off for a moment is the blue text over it. Just... why is that there?

[.Tatty.]

We've actually got an assortment of styles here making it difficult to choose but overall I'm drawn to C, Its cute quirky and a simple tag that hits all the right spots.

The colors are warm and fun at the same time. The typography gives of a sporadic and kinda crazy feel which really works in the tags favor, The stroke effects to the right and the miniture circles to the left help make this tag feel vibrant. The biggest qualm is the blue "SINC" text to the bottom right that just looks out of place and unneeded.

To sum up I vote for C. (Voted C on the polll also)

[Serated]

Entry A abuse the effect C4Ds too much.
Entry B is too bright.
Entry C is too plain.
Entry D has totally purged the image with the Sprayed Strokes filter and kills the composition.
Entry E is blatantly obvious who made it and again has horrible colors as always; with garbage text, also typical for this user.
Entry F is over sharpened and has so many effects, that it overpowering everything nice about it.
Entry H is has that ugly green spot on it, with too many random shapes that serve no overall purpose.


I will vote for Entry G because it appears to have more sense of composition about it. Its all about the same level of saturation, its not abusing any particular style. Its very relaxed, and I can look at it without my brain spitting out 'oh, its this filter' or 'its C4Ds again.' Could have chosen a better image, but that's alright.

[Zenister]

I was torn between F and H, but F is just waaaaaay too oversharpened, so I vote for H.

It kind of sounds like you are complaining about the other entries in a negative way, @Arrancar Grimmjow isn't this against the rules?

I'm voting for B. I love the background.

I would say no. He's stating what's wrong with the sigs, not saying "oh wow this sig sucks. Man this person should stop making sigs all together."

[Aleyna]

Sorry, but I disagree with you. I feel like he was personally try to attack all of the entries, and I think H is a lovely signature, because I like green and black together, so isn't him calling that signature ugly considered a negative comment? I think it is, but anyways, thanks for responding to my reply.

That's fine, everyone's entitled to their own opinions. He wasn't calling the entire signature ugly, only the random green spot on the sig.

Well I stand corrected then. The spot is apart of the signature, so in a sense it is calling the signature ugly in a way, but oh well. Thanks for replying.

No problem. If there's ever any concerns about SOTW, feel free to ask me about it any time.


Anyway, I'm really torn between B, E, and G. I'll have to go with E. I would've liked to have seen some of the text go behind the character to show more depth, but the lighting is good as well as the blending.

[Ωmega]

Entry E obviously has no concept of type hierarchy...the color choice isnt great either [colorful stock with over-gradiented background?]

Entry G is nice, but the colors are over saturated and the text is hard to read...

Looking the entries over, Im gonna G, despite its flaws. Its very art nouveau, which I like

[Acnologia]

I like E, F and G

But in the end I vote G as it's like the made all the flowers which is amazing in my opinion.

And I'm sorry Sera, I like you as a person, but I agree with what Alanna said. Grimmjow is right that you weren't saying things like "this sucks" but your opinions were too harsh. Such comments could drive people to give up altogether and no it's not them being sensitive the comments were harsh and uncalled for. Especially on E, would you like someone to say that about your work?

I don't want to cause drama but I had to say something, as Grimmy said I am entitled to my opinion.

[Miss Marceline]

They're all quite lovely but I'm going to go with B.

While the blue text did throw me off also I appreciate the simplicity of it, The lighting is great and it blends well too.

[Syaoran]

c: The entries for this are amazing~ I'm going to go with "H". Mainly monochrome, with a nice clean simplistic feel. Could do without the green though xD;

[Beyond The Grave]

Entry C is nice and clean so I vote for it because it has simplicity. The others to me seem as if too much is going on or....they need to re-arrange some things but I like them all in general ^.^

[Inactive User Account]

I'm gonna go with Entry A for Siggy Of The Week. I love the emerald hair and it looks like a holographic card... cool stuff.

B is anotha' stella one, and she looks to be a very feminine, yet dangerous bat girl.

Entry E is also a cause for applause, and the rest are finely designed, cut sharply for display, but overall, A seems to be the victor here, in my eyes.


My Wi-Fi, it's gone out...

[November]

Entry C.
