Second chance at gold.

Contest is Over

• Contest was judged on November 5, 2007
• Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 150, Bronze: 75, Honorable mention: 2 people
• Final notes:
  Of the finalists, I had a very hard time deciding the placement. These were all very good, and none of you should be disappointed.
  I did recieve some HM's in this contest, which was not what I asked for, but I didn't DQ them because my last 2 contests were utter failures. Thank you to Everyone else who entered. I hope your continue to explore yourselves through your craft. I would also like to say that although I read a lot of cliche in this contest, I know it is difficult sometimes to be original with ideas that have been written about before.
  Thank you all. Matt
