XD!
Well, I've already got the whole template in my PM to myself. I've just got to put in the winners and everything.
Seesh I'm having a hard time deciding =[.

Ok, since I can't keep myself from posting it any longer, results will be up in 10 minutes or so.
Sun Oct 16, 2005 5:07 pm
Yee! Not that I'll win anything, but still so much fun ^^
Sun Oct 16, 2005 5:16 pm
Now it is the time you've all been waiting for!! The big announcement =D.
Before I continue, I just wanted to say that all the sets are excellent, and I'd like to thank everyone who participated, because all of you did a great job! I had a really, really hard time choosing.
Ok, I'll stop wasting your time and proceed to the
Bonus Awards
These bonus awards are for sets that did particularly way in one category. They will be awarded 1500 neopoints each!
Prettiest Award
Ooohs... this set is soo pretty! I love the colours that are used... and this set is so bright and happy and... juicy =P. Ooooh I wonder who got the award!
The prettiest award goes to...
Number 38: _jaye_ with her Apples set!
Most Creative Award
This set caught my attention immediately. It's bold foreground picture was complemented by many foggy background pictures, with many colours and portraying many emotions. The subtext, I thought, was well chosen as well, I loved the wording.
The most creative award goes to...
Number 2: _jade_em_ with her Raven (from Teen Titans) set!
Best Subtext Award
"Whoever said sunshine brings happiness
has never danced in the rain"
Does that sound familiar to anyone? It's such a beautiful line...
The Best Subtext Award goes to...
Number 3: Anubis with her rain set!
Congratulations to all of the bonus winners!
With that done, we'll now move on to the
Runner-ups
Two of you did exceptionally well and were very close to winning one of the top prizes. They will be awarded 2500 neopoints each!
First set: Wow... what a nice blend of green you have in the background. The image you've chosen is soo cute! And the subtext... everything's so cute and fun. The colours you've chosen really go with the theme as well.
Second set: The only words I can use to describe this set are: Simplistic Beauty. (Funnily enough, that's the subtext for one of your other sets) Everything just goes together - image, colours, font...
The two runner ups are...
Number 28: Jax with his Yoshi set!
And
Number 35: .:Requiem:. with her Ice and Snow set!!
Congratulations!
And the moment you've all been waiting for
3rd Place:
Wonderfully crafted, this set flows together well - image, font, text, placement of text... It gives me a sense of majestic beauty... I can almost hear this set! Excellently composed
7500 neopets are awarded to...
Number 14: Pixa and his *coughhers* Waterfall set!
2nd Place:
Ok, no clues this time, because I'm too lazy to type it up... I love the font and the colours and the background...
14000 neopets are awarded to...
Sweet Pea and her Daisuke set!
And finally,
1st Place:
I'm not going to tell you so quickly
Can you guess?
Weeeeeeeeee
Now I'm going to standard
set-announcing tradition.
This set has a wonderfully chosen image
as well as background
It's so bright and happy...
the font and colours and subtext
Are so fun and bright
Hmmm...
Now then...
Without further prolongnation
Is that a word?
I don't think so
Well then
Oh look up there, what's in the sky?
21000 neopoints!
goes to...
Number 25:
Number 25: Mallory and her Happy Negg set!
Congratulations to all the winners!!
Everyone else
I must say that it was a very hard contest to judge, and there were many good sets. I'm really, really, sorry that I couldn't choose all of you!! For all your hard work, the people below will get a Cheery Blossom! Listed below are them and their beautiful sets.
Cleo_Lo - really close! I liked your FE Dragon set so much =[.
everconfused - I love the subtext on your Jellyfish set!
MyleneFarmer - a beautiful portrayal of Harken
tymaporer - smiley wars!! I'll remember this forever
gemma58 - your Eliwood set is creatively shaped and captured =D.
WIS - I love your tales of Phantasia set!
Dyl - how dreamy your Link set is...
Stampsyne - your Kirby set is soo cute
Kanashimi - your Florina set was really close as well! Beautiful colours and style.
Syrill - weee... so dreamy *drools*.
If I missed you, tell me!
You may claim prizes by making a trade link on neopets with a worthless item (like Palm Fans... I like Palm Fans... or some kinds of sands =D)
Special mention goes to
Requiem for EIGHT sets!
And...
Sweet Pea for FIVE sets!
You will be awarded an extra 1k each.
And also, there will be a random bonus prize of 500 np, because I want to give a round 60k instead of 59.5 XD.
The random prize goes to:
WIS!
That's it
Well there, that's the end of the set contest =). Thank you for everyone who entered.
41 sets were entered into the contest, made by 18 participants.
The set contest was held for 47 days.
Popular themes: I received 10 Fire Emblem sets (3 by Sweet Pea), as well as 4 Daisuke sets, 5 bird sets (3 from Requiem), and 4 water creature sets.
Icey bought a total of 10 Cheery Blossoms for 600 np each, totally 6000. Combined with the winners (51.5k total) and special mention awards (2k), and the random prize (0.5k), that makes a total of 60k

Your wonderful comments are Cheery Blossom enough!
My favorites (that I recall off the top of my head) were Gemma58s wonderful pyramid shaped siggy (SO outside the box), kanashimis Devine, _jade_em_s frosty, and Requiems cougar!

XD Wasn't thinking when I was doing the sets 
didn't even expect something, so I was quite surprised I got the prettiest award.
Apples are yum
