Well, here’s my first attampt at a contest, and it’s rather lame.

I’ve recently made alts and changed some IDC colors. After all this, I have two (2) Brownie Points left. Since my shooping skills are low (though probably good enough for a Re-Re/Permanoob ava), I turn to you, the Forumwarz mbumes, to provide me with an avatar.

For this contest, I’m requesting an Emo Kid design using my current avatar.

This contest will be open until the Episode 2 upgrade. This Contest Will Close At Oct. 14th’s Rolover (7 a.m. Forumwarz time). [s]After the site is back up and I get back to this thread, anything that made it in before whenever the update took place will be considered, and 1 BP will be awarded upon application of the best Emo Kid you guys can make of me. So far, Aldo_Anything has provided a poster-favorite, so the BP is his if Noone brings forth a worthy challenger.

If anyone wants, I can send the lonely little BP over to the MC for safe-keeping. Let me know in the posts.[/s]

CONTEST CLOSED

After some supposed deliberation, I have chosen Aldo_Anything as the winnar:

If anyone wants some explanation, it’s that despite how Simple And Clean some of the other, more fancy looking entries are, this creation is something whose mere appearance could make a lesser person depressed to see it, if they don’t outright kill themselves to be free of its presence in message board and mind. Thanks to everyone who entered, and I shall promptly save EVERYTHING onto my hard drive, that I may steal from you at a later date. Well, probably not, and if I did, I’d feel compelled to BP you. Whatever.

Lack of color transition in Paint makes the red look kinda like a heart, but I love the strange illusion of depth in those big ol’ tears despite the program. Wouldn’t mind usin’ it (and so far, it’s my only option, LOL). Off in the corner, that your signature/insignia?

Not really lol. It’s the symbol of Tokio Hotel. Log in to see images!

If you want, i can change that red part of the hair, maybe my paint skillz can make some cool red.

EDIT:

With symbol and darker red: Log in to see images!

I’m not very good at this so here’s what I came up with:

These dudes above me don’t get emo. Just like they don’t understand me, or my life, or my ****ing poetry. Fascists.

How could I disagree. Congrats, you deserve to win. Do you feel better now? Log in to see images!

Janie Posted:

No, now I feel worse. I don’t want approval.

Then go cry yourself to sleep or cut your wrists you emo.

Alright, currently it’s between Janie for photo-realistics and Aldo for stereotype extent. I like Amasius’s filter effects, and Pinacho, yes, the darker red looks better. Don’t recognise “Tokio Hotel”, though, heh.

I’d go with this one. The other one… Kind of looks like a gay footballer.

Alright then, I’ll pull a Master Troll and call a time limit. This will end on the rollover after next (so 7 a.m. on the 14th, Forumwarz time). This is isn’t far off from the old deadline, but it’d get a BP out to someone before the update. So, Aldo, any contingency plan should some usurper arise?

Finally realized that’s a piercing, not a white micro-goatee. So, posters, think the more simple design of Angry hobo is good (I’m leaning toward the top one out of them, though the middle one stands out the most), or should we **** it up every time with Aldo’s battle-worn rendition?

I really am rather torn about this… like your mom’s vagoo after I was done with her.
