Err, I should add that I'm not accusing anyone or that I believe anyone here would cheat, it's just something I was curious about and wanted to bring up.

Suggest a more suitable approach and it'll be noted. So far I haven't thought of anything.

And no, I don't want to have 100s of PSDs to look through, and it'll overcomplicate the system.

Err. What about requesting that people upload the original source image(s) they used, and post the links alongside their sigs? I guess that's a quick method of verification?

At the very least it would prevent outright theft/cheating.

Although yeah, that suggestion isn't exactly foolproof either orz.

I'm just going to trust that people aren't cheating.

And if they do then they're plain pants-on-head retarded.

Just added mine, palmereap yours looks great! Who is it?

I added mine as well. :) Yeah, hi! I'm new. Decided to join the contest just because. :) Also, I've added the sources & whatnots just to be on the safe side. ^^;

Changed my submission.
I didn't expect this big of a turnout for our first.
Thanks, everyone.
Blud for taking this idea into consideration.
NPG for hosting it. =D
And good luck to all.

Good job to all entries this week, we had a pretty hard decision in the end, but I think the right person won, well done to Palmereap, and his very smooth signature =)

Can we get a list of how many votes on which sigs?
Just curious about it.

Congrats Palm, knew you'd rape this contest from your past work for a long time coming.

Yeah, I knew it'd be either Palm or Tai K.
And btw, nice entry for SOTW #2, Shukaku.

No theme, and I don't know what you mean by timecap - You can submit previous work, but the deadline is the 25th.

I made this sig some time before, it says Cross since I usually call myself Cross on forums, but since that was taken here, im CrossXD on this forum. I'm a bit too lazy to edit it, and probably won't have time this week, but if I must then I will.

It's fine.
