    Hey all, I've been impressed with so many entries here that I've decided to throw in another advertising spot. :) Now there will be two winners who will receive a 160x240 spot on the right sidebar - I can design your banner or you can provide me with an image. I know a lot of people are just entering this contest for fun as well and I'm glad to see that! I'm working on a blog post that should go live on my site this Friday, where you can ass your work displayed along with a link back to your site if you have provided one.

    I think I will be holding a similar contest each month for an advertising spot, so stay tuned near the end of September. :)

    I just installed Photoshop CS3 tonight so I'll try to do something once I get used to it all. I'll be working from mostly tutorials, books, and dvds for a while anyways!

    Swaymedia - that looks awesome! Thanks for your entry! :)

    Master_Merlin, thanks for your entry as well, but which tutorial did you follow? They don't look familiar.

    Sure - I really like your pieces and you've followed the tutorials and techniques very closely! :) However I wouldn't mind seeing a bit more creativity with your pieces, perhaps using a technique described in a tutorial to make something completely different!

    Annnnd the winners are ... *barum barum barum*

    Auzzzie with his delicious Starburst-Candy and Swaymedia with his beautiful Coffee Cup! They both took the tutorials further creatively and created work that was very much their own!

    Please get in touch with me regarding the advertising space - let me know where you would like me to link to and whether you need me to design the 160x240 banner.

    to everyone else, thank you for entering! I'll post tomorrow when I get the blog post displaying your work up. :) Keep in tune next month for a similar contest! As well, make sure to let me know if you have any tutorial ideas and I will include a link to your site in that tutorial!

    Congratulations to you guys who won. Those images are both awesome looking. My favorite, though, is definitely the candy one. "Sweet" idea!

    I'm glad you liked my effort.:D

    As for the advertising, I don't really have a relevant site. Dunno if you want an advertisement for a site about the Australian Army randomly floating there.:p

    LOL. I'm not sure how well it would do, it's really targeting a different demographic. Although I wouldn't mind. But if you ever have something else you'd like to advertise down the road, just let me know alright? Thanks so much for entering the contest even if it was just for fun! :D

    I've gotten the gallery up! You can see it here: http://mintyferret.com/gallery/reader-gallery-august-2007/

    Let me know if you need anything changed regarding credits or pictures! THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE!!! Tune in next month! :D

    And let me know if you have any tutorial requests!
