Sig Artwork Contest for all!!

[Mcmonopoly]

Hi Everyone, So let me start this off:

***********************************************
I'm putting on this little Sig Artwork contest, Firstly because I want to have a Nice iO sig Artwork (in fact maybe a couple different ones) to add to my Sig here and on the other forums I visit.
*************************************************

Basically this is a free for all thing, The guidelines are pretty simple, but I will retain the right to choose from all the entries That will be posted on the Thread.

1) All artwork will have to be of decent size, preferably to fit the whole bottom part of the Sig space.
2) iOs logo will have to be inserted/used/abused/represented in ALL INSTANCES, once will be enough.
3) I personally like these kind of graphic components and would like to have some of them incorporated in the Artwork if possible:
-Circuit board traces
-Dark fractals(Blueish/purple hues, etc) Linky1, Linky2
-I mostly play Demo/Medic/Pyro, so feels free to use the characters
-I like Really, really dig HDR pictures Google it, it's awesome..!!
-I'm a Night creature IRL (literally..O_o) So dark Stuff/Mood is OK.
-PLEASE NO FLAGS of any Kind, except maybe an iO flag.LOL!
-I like Cars, Porsche 911Ts, Subaru STIs, Atoms, etc
-I dig Bio Mechanical imagery/tattoos/Drawings(See H.R. Giger for examples)
-Star Wars (yeah...)
-Nebulas, star formations, black Holes, Astrophysics stuff..
-I'm into anything considered Metal Music.
-I'm a pretty open minded guy so please feel free to improvise..!!

The contest will run From Today (May 16th 2008) until June 30th 12pm EST.

Please post all your entries directly in this thread, Comments are welcome, inputs, questions about the contest/Content/Etc.

Ok now for the prizes; I would like to be able to choose 3 Different Artworks, so I'll be presenting 3 Prizes. BUT, since I can't assess how much I like one over another, I'll be initially "Pre-choosing" 3 winning Artworks (I hope I will have more than 3 artwork submitted), then I'll have the members of the Forums poll votes for Which they like the most and use the poll results to decide which winner will receive which Prize, thus making this Contest more Random in the end.

********
First Prize: Either a 20$ Steam Game of your choice, 20$ Amazon Gift card, etc, Basically a paid for 20$ Gift..!!

Second Prize: A valid CD Key For CoH.
I got some Legit Game Keys Given to me recently, one of them is Company Of Heroes.This will be the Second Prize, or a 10$ Game on steam or 10$ gift card.

Third Prize: A legit CD key for Starcraft (the original), Or a 5$ Game on steam or a 5$ gift card of your choice.
********

Also If the 2nd and 3rd place winners choose the gift cards over the games, the CD keys will ultimately be given away to the runner ups.

That's about it, Hope this will work OK. PM me for any inquiries, or post directly here.

Thank You all and Best of luck to all the entries.!!!

THe only thing I'd say (and I have no right to since i'm neither contributing or judging) is that your using the BF2 tags, Johnny, so if u wanna be correct it should be [iO] rather than =iO=.

It's a good thing you made the due date extend into june since school is such a hassle until then.

TBH, I may extend it further if I get comments about it, or people start participating later than I thought.

NICE!!! Keep'em coming, really nice!

As far as global concept it's spot on.!

Also If you (or anyone) want to submit different ones, I won't restrict each participant to only 1 prize (the final choice will be done by the forum's users), so feel free to add more if you'd like.
