$30 Cartoon Cow

[Inersha]

Hey Guys,

I am looking for a cartoon cow to fit in the top right corner of this page www.freshtexasholdem.com/freshomaha/

I like the styles of these cows, but I of course do not want you to copy them:

What I'm looking for is:


Something soft and nicely shaded
Around 160x130 pixels should be a good fit


Payment by Paypal. Contest will run for 4 days. If there are no entries that I like, I reserve the right to not announce a winner. I will try hard to give you good feedback. Best of luck!

Cute cow Waiz!

[Inersha]

waiz: I like the black and white one. I'm definitely looking for a black and white cow, not a brown one. Should have mentioned.

Maybe slightly thicker outlines? Very nice effort though.

[Inersha]

Love the cow too Nora, nice job. I can see this one being hard to judge.

Keep them coming.

Nice i like it...:D

[warpser]

Nice i like it...:D

Thanks bizzard :)

[Inersha]

That's a fantastic piece of work warpser, I'm really impressed. I love the style of it.

As much as I love it though, it just doesn't seem to fit what I'm looking for. I think maybe it's because it's facing front-on. If it was drawn from the side or standing up with more of it's body in the picture, I think it would be perfect.

Nonetheless, great work.

I gave a card on the horn .. as i see urs is a poker website
Hope u like it

[Dr Googler]

nora your cow is so sweet :)

[warpser]

Thanks Inersha,

I will see if I can get a side view going.

[Inersha]

waiz: Very nice work again. Nice touch with the poker card on the horn.

With this one I think it's a little too fat, and the head seems a bit out of shape. Not sure I like the cow smiling and showing teeth, but that's me being picky.

entry sent in via PM :)

[Inersha]

warpser: I really like this new version, thanks!

bizzard: that's good, but maybe a bit more shading? Other entries seem to have more detail.

l3fty: I think I may have been a bit misleading in my first post. It's not going in the header, its going in the top right of the content page, so it shouldn't have a flat bottom and sit above the navigation. Sorry.

Holy Cow! Those are nice submissions so far :)

Definitely, this is the most impressive contest I have run.

yes, is a cow, and yes is a cartoon cow playing poker, look closer he's holding A card.
any feedback?

[Inersha]

Azkall: I'm not a fan of the big bushy hair on the cow I'm afraid. I also think I would like it to have a cow's face as opposed to a more human face.

I'd like to point out that the image is going to go in the space where the "Texas Hold'em Guide" text is, and not in the header. Sorry if I wasn't clear!

Great looking cow Nora, I would vote for your one but you may want to change the shape of the lower black patch as it could possibly be mistaken for a bull :eek:

Honestly, I'm really impressed with all of these entries. Well done guys.

Definately gets my vote now,lol The cow could even be holding a plaque which says something like Freshtexashold'em.com, but then I'm not the judge but best of luck

[Inersha]

jharvis: Wow, that's really good too. I can't think of how to improve it. Thanks for you entry.

Nora: I didn't realise either. Thanks for the update anyway!

[Inersha]

Thanks for all the entries. I do not have any feedback suggestions for all of the entries.

If there are going to be no more entrants, I will announce the winner in an hour or so.

[Inersha]

Right then. I can honestly say that this has been the best contest that I have held here. I'm not just saying this, as I genuinely mean it. There has been a lot of talent displayed in this thread and in PMs, so I would like to thankyou all for you efforts. Really good job guys.

The Winner

warpser

Congratulations. I really love this cow. It was a tough one between Nora and warpser, but this just edged it out. I think it will fit perfectly. Sending you a PM now.

Once again, thanks a lot guys (and girls).

[thecarpetscientist]

A lot of great entries! I personally liked the cow holding the card with a deer in the headlights look on it's face. Good work on all of the entries.
