    Everybody - Please listen to DaveyBoy! Yes - it's obvious that KevenChristman & Fidel_Castro's design are of a similar concept, but reading through my feedback, they are both making changes based on requests from me!

    Yes, Fidel_Castro came up with the original faceless figure, and whilst one of you mentioned that this wasn't a particularly innovative idea, it clearly portrays the feeling of anonymity (the original design request).

    Would it be more 'original' to have a blurred picture of a pig hiding behind a bush? Sure! But would the visitor immediately connect with the image when they saw it? No.

    The winner will be the one who gets the closest to the image I have in my head, but which I'm not skilled enough to create.

    And at the moment, KevinChristman & Fidel_Castro's designs epitomise that better than the others.

    Everyone who has entered has produced some quality work, of which they can be rightly proud, but there can only be one winner!

    Note: This contest was originally scheduled to end in about 3 hours (midday uk time). However, work commitments mean I'll be away from an internet connection until 9pm UK time. So, I'll leave the contest open for a further 9 hours, at which time the winner will be announced, payment made etc.

    Thanks again,
    Steve

    Damn, well I guess congrats Fidel.

    Just a little surprised I guess. Said I was in the lead but I guess your opinion got changed because of all of these people complaining that I copied his design.

    Ehh, I guess I'll just have to hope I win a decent prized one eventually. I mean, I must've made 15 copies of this thing, all for nothing. =/ But I guess that's what a contest is for. Ehh whatever...

    Congrats Fidel =/

    Kevin - please check your PM. I hope that answers/helps a little.

    Everybody, for the record - this had nothing to do with complaints of 'plagiarism', and it was an incredibly tough decision.

    Ideally, I would liked to have called a draw and, if I had the $, I would've given $30 each to you and Fidel_Castro.

    Thanks,
    Steve
