This took the whole of 3 minutes to whip up

Final Entry

3.

. . 4.

I need some feedback... What does everyone like, what should I work on? Perhaps #3's colored image with #4's PS logo and location?

I think those last 2 are too blurry.

 

[DuckRacer]

I think those last 2 are too blurry.

Not to mention they have more jaggies than a shark's mouth.

 

[Sprite]

Summat from me.

Yeah... I'll have to fix that, or make new ones. I find GIFs hard to fix.

 

[slackbladder]

I'll have a bash.

115x120


I'll try one or two others.

FINAL ENTRY



I'm sorry, but I couldn't make this avatar in 120x120, it has been optimsed as best as possible without losing the quality or depth in the images.

BASE ENTRY

 

[Bram Turismo]

FINAL ENTRY

Any sizes can be asked for, I've got them laying right here on my PC, just ask if you're interested. I thought I'd only post the 120 X 120 since that was what was typed in Bold in the first post...

 

[Rue]

Nice idea for a comp and a great prize!!

Here's my FINAL ENTRY... UK comedic character Ali-G meets PS-3...

And a wallpaper for the hell of it...

 

[Rue]

DP sorry...

 

[Touring Mars]

Thanks for the entries so far! Great work, everyone!!

I've decided to extend the deadline until the day of the PS3 Launch itself (seems like common sense to me!), so this is now a FINAL CALL for entries to the contest.

If you have posted more than one avatar, please now mark your final entry clearly unless you have already done so!!

 

[XGT Taipan]

This isn't an entry, but I do beleive it deserves a special mention

Not fair lol you can't extend it a day before the voting , i was looking forword to it

 

[DuckRacer]

...I guess I'll just let everyone use my own little library of PlayStation related avatars.

 

[Tangled Web]

I made something simple yet effective I think.

Final Entry

120x120

100x100

Example of it in use.

​

I know I didn't have to have the example, just thought it would be good to show what it looks like. 👍

 

[livemusic]

Nice avatar. 👍

 

[Solid Lifters]

I tried to make one, but it's hard to do so when you only have the demo version of Paint.

 

[XGT Taipan]

Just one for fun

I didn't know MS Paint even had a demo version.

Just one for fun

That's surprisingly good. Although I see a typo (ITS should be IT'S).

There will be a public vote too (where an additional prize will be awarded) with all entries included...​

 

[F1GTR]

BTW Mars, the proper one is on the right. The one you quoted is my preview version.

 

[Touring Mars]

Without much further ado (and because I'm going to be too busy at work today to do this late), I shall announce the winner as chosen by me... and the winner is...

Ultrashot

Congratulations A very sleek and stylish avatar, and I'm delighted to be able to sport such a cool PS3 avatar here on launch day Was a tough choice, and there were several that were extremely close, however I cannot say which ones for fear of biasing the public vote... at this point, I'd like to say a great big thank you to everyone who participated in the contest. After giving the contest a little more thought, however, I suddenly realised that I could easily bias the public vote by announcing my three favourites, so I have decided to move the goal posts at the last minute and change the prizes around a bit. Rather than awarding one year's free Premium to the winner that I have chosen and two runners-up prizes of one month's Premium, plus one month's Premium for the winner of the public vote, I have decided to do the following instead... The overall winner (i.e. my favourite) will still receive the same prize, but there will no longer be runner's up prizes awarded for my own selections. Rather, I've decided to change the prizes for the public vote such that the winner of the public vote will also get one year's free Premium and two runner's up in the public vote will get one month's Premium... in other words, there will be less of my influence over the prizes. I've also decided to not include my favourite in the public vote, since they already win the big prize

Best of luck to everyone in the public vote, which will be open until next Friday. (poll will follow shortly)

edit: The Public Vote is up.... anyone may vote, and you can vote for as many avatars as you like (except your own, obviously ) Please note that it's a public vote too...

 

[F1GTR]

Congrats Ultrashot!

 

[Bram Turismo]

Thanks alot Chris 👍

Had no idea my entry was that good I'm honoured to have Premium (going straightaway into Photoshop to make some 120X120 sized avatars)

 

[RetroGiant]

Congrats Ultra!

 

[XGT Taipan]

Well done Ultrashot, it was a great avatar.

And great competition TM, it's good to see GTP giving back to the community for their hard work.

👍 DOUBLE THUMBS UP 👍

Edit: Sorry, I voted for my own before I read your post TM. So count mine as one less when the poll closes.

 

[Touring Mars]

One more day of voting to go, so I've temporarily moved this thread to The Rumble Strip to attract a few more votes.

Please vote for the avatar(s) you like best - the general theme being the PS3 (obviously!).

Poll closes tomorrow, and the winners will be announced later tomorrow.
In the event of a tie, I will use my own votes as casting votes. I am not voting publicly so as not to influence the poll in any way.

 

[Solid Lifters]

Wow, somebody voted for mine. Not even I did that.

 

[Tangled Web]

Wow, I almost forgot about this. Voted for my two favs.

Last time I checked I was in the lead, two votes behind now. Hope I get some more votes.

Goodluck to everyone. 👍

I like the 'Bump' one because it's taken from my favorite TV show: Trailer Park Boys.
