Hi, guys! Didn't have a contest for a while and I'm getting nervous :) . Anyways, It's was holiday season in my country, and hanging out with my family gave me this idea.
A banner contest about LotR families. I mean Tolkiens families, not AU Forum families, just to get that clear. Take any family you want - the Bagginses, Sam and Rosie, the Rohan royal family, the Stewards of Gondor, Elrond and Arwen, or any other family you can think of, and make a banner.

RULES :
1. up to two entries per person, but the banners will be voted for separately
2. make them not wider than 700px
3. give it some appropriate text that relates to the family in question
4. number of spots - depending on the interest in the contest
5. entries due - will decide later

I will start a voting thread for the contest, but I would also like to have a couple of judges to vote. So, if you're interested in judging, sign up for it.

Well, that's it for now, thanks for reading all this, and even more thanks if you decide to join or to judge.

:bye2:


ENTRIES:
1. Elfenwen :yes:
2. Pandora :yes:
3. Tinnuhiriel :yes:
4. Thenidiel :yes:
5. Frost Lord :yes:
6. ~RinielAranel~ :yes: :yes:

(yes, Sam actually started the family line Garderner, I'm not losing my mind. So though it was technically Samwise Gamgee, his son was Frodo Garderner and his family is referred to as Garderner in all the lovely family trees in the appecdices.)

WOW! What a response! I'll limit the number of entries, so that there wouldn't be too many banners, it makes it difficult to vote, since every banner will be a separate entry.

Is everyone OK with a week from today deadline?
