Events 2011 Spring Art Challenge Voting - Winner Announced!

Welcome to the 2011 Spring Art Challenge Voting thread! The purpose of this thread is to recognize and reward the hard working artists that come to the Fan Art forum everyday and share with us their amazing creations. Here are a few guidelines to follow when voting and to ensure that everything in the process runs smoothly:

Everything listed currently in the Fan Art Challenge thread is up for vote for this current round. You are allowed to choose up to two pieces of artwork as your final vote

All votes MUST be sent to me over PM. Anything posted to this thread will NOT be considered.

The winner will be declared as the person with the most votes at the end of the round and will be given VIPship for a week, a title and their name and winning artwork will be listed in the Fan Art Challenge gallery. As an additional bonus, the winning artwork will be turned into a user icon and will be used widespread across the Jedi Council forums. In the event that the winning piece is not directly SW related, it has been agreed upon between myself and NYCitygurl that winning artwork will be transformed into an icon for a limited time(similar to our holiday and sports icons). If you have any questions about this, please feel free to ask.

Here is the list of eligible entries and the code(the number behind the link in bold) you are to use when voting:

The deadline for all votes is Monday, June 13th at 12am boardtime. Good luck to all the artists and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

 

Yup! Anyone is allowed to vote. Just be sure to send your votes to me via PM.

 

I still need some more votes this round to determine a winner.

With that said, I'm going to extend voting until Thursday, June 16th 11:59pm board time. If you haven't voted yet, please do so and get the word out to your friends!

 

I was really hoping to get some more votes here, but that just hasn't happened and as it stands now, I'm still in need of some more to declare a winner.

If anyone is willing to vote, please, please, please PM me! I would be very grateful to you!

 

Sorry for the long delay, everyone! The voting was in a bit of a gridlock with a 4-way tie after the first week. After an extended period of time, more votes came in and I was finally able to declare a winner. I think next round, I will try to do something a little different to avoid a tie in the future. But for now, the winner:

Please join me in congratulating Corellian_Outrider! His piece, featuring the Galaxy at War RPG, was in the running all the way up to the very end. After an extended voting period, his piece was able to endure a tough field and ultimately take the winning vote. Wonderful piece, C_O! Congrats!

Here is his winning entry:

C_O, you will be granted colors and a title for one week. Your icon will also be coming in the next few days. If you want something specific done, please let me know!
