[x] Good day to all. This is a contest that which is very much different from all the other general contests. Only this contest, you have to be more creative with a limited amount of choices that are offered to you.
[x] The name of the game: As it is, it is called the Screencapture Contest, and as you may have noticed there are rounds to this contest meaning I will continue with contests in the same routine [with variables...well..varying.

]
[x] Basically I will provide one or more screencaptures of various things. Whether it be Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, a picture of a book, or a landscape capture. You will then use those screencaptures to make your graphic [avatar, banner, etc.].
Rules:
- You must
only use the screencaptures given to you.
- You must use them to make the required graphic (ie. Round: Avatar)
- Your entry must be a newly made entry. [Preferably with some kind of signature.]
- There will be no limit to the entries (meaning any number of people may enter), as long as it is entered by the date. Any entry given latter the date will be shown and recognized but will not be included in the judging (unless given a very good reason as to why you entered late).
[x] Judging: The voting/judging will now be publicly available however the voter must PM me with their votes/comments rather than posting it.
[x] Awards: Awards still are not guaranteed the best in the world. I've gotten better with Photoshop so I've gotten into the habit of making awards for every round.

COMMENTS++++
>>>>>> <b>Everyone</b> :: “PENGUINS! I loveses all the pretty peguins! They're all soo cute! *ahem* I these fabulous buttons were very hard to choose from! I love them all!

” –Esmerelda Bramble
“A few entries look quite similar, but they have been given little touches of creativity by the artists, to make them all, in some way, completely different. Beauitful.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“Man, you all make this hard. I found myself asking, "What one would I want to click on?" repeatedly. Great Job!” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>> <b>Rose of Rivendell</b> :: “They're so itty! It's so cute! And I love the colors on them - and "Ice Ice Baby!"

” –Daisy Goldworthy
“Oh you chose the smaller size, much, much harder in my opinion. And you did a fabulous job on them. I especially love the "Ice, Ice, Baby" one!

Very creative!” –Esmerelda Bramble
“small and quaint, clear colors” –Zandain
“They're nice, but the textures you used obscured the main focus of the pieces: the penguins.” –Tintinnabulator
“I like the individuality of your text, and the colours you have used (especially the pink; pink penguins!). Really nice looking buttons.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“I love how shiny those are! In a strand, those would definetly stick out, great job!” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>> <b>ViviElessar</b> :: “Absolutely stunning! I love the brightness of them and the beautiful colors!” –Daisy Goldworthy
“I just love how bright and happy yours are. The coloring looks amazing, very simple, but beautiful.

” –Esmerelda Bramble
“fun option, penguins and sunshine” –Zandain
“Nice effects, and very bright and cheery! The text, or lack of text, was used nicely.” –Tintinnabulator
“I love the sharpness and the crystal blue colour in your first entry (which reminds me of a postcard; one that I would totally buy!). I love the little arrow brush in your second, so simple yet effective.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“A walk in the sun? That's great! I have to say that both of your buttons make me feel like I am going to walk and enter a site.” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>> <b>~RinielAranel~</b> :: “Awww, they're so cute! I love the "Click if you love Penguins" one!” –Daisy Goldworthy
“Haha, I love the "Click if you love Penguins", it's brilliant! I really like the coloring on all of yours too. Nice job Rin!” –Esmerelda Bramble
“love the colors and the blend” –Zandain
“Good composition, the text is simple, but it works. The main thing is the colors are slightly washed out, especially on the first.” –Tintinnabulator
“I really love the text you have chosen to use. I would definitely click those buttons. Good choice of pictures and textures.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“The design you used is lovely! I think I might have even tried clicking on this second button, just to see if it would bring me somewhere.” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>> <b>Morwen Anduril</b> :: “Party like a penguin!

Awesome buttons - and the coloring of them is amazing!” –Daisy Goldworthy
“My goodness you all have such good quotes!

The party one is my favourite. Although I really like "Penguin Pride". You're all so creative! Your coloring is amazing, and I really like them.” –Esmerelda Bramble
“Yours stand out so much, Morwen! I love the first one how you crossed out "Rockstar" and made it look like someone wrote in "Penguin" under it. It just really is stunning. The second one really stands out how the text sort of jumps out at you. One because its a warmer shade, and two its amazingly curvy and in the middle of the button. Beautiful.

” – Marroc Underhill
“Excellent use of text, the second one seems a little too dark though.” –Tintinnabulator
“I love the text in the first button. Really creative. And I like the fact the text in the second is really “hit you in the eye” so you want to click the button. Love the colouring as well.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“Party like a penguin. So cute! The coloring on that one is magnificent, and, for the other, the cropping is beyond belief. I love the way you positioned the penguins, and that handwriting! Great Job!” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>>> <b>Firiel</b> :: “Aw, I'd be his friend! Cute buttons!” –Daisy Goldworthy
“I like the soft coloring on the first, but the border on the second looks a bit weird. Also, I found the text hard to read.” –Tintinnabulator
“Aww.. the second one is so cute… and sad. *huggles . I really like the way you have used borders on both of them. It gives them a little extra something.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“Coloring on the first one is aweseom, and you are one of the few to use the king penguin picture. The saying on it is really neat, and I definetly would have clicked on the button for for the saying, great job!” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>>> <b>Gilraen Ringeril</b> :: “Amazing as always! I love the different shades/colors on the second button. And it definitely shows your style!” –Daisy Goldworthy
“Penguins galore! I really like the bright colors you used, and the text looks amazing. More fabulous pieces by Gil!” –Esmerelda Bramble
“I can't help but admire the second button! It's so amazing. I love how you made the three little "strips" on the very right how one is clear, and they change to a darker color each time. The first one is also really good, how you made it look so amazing without much text. Great Job!” –Marroc Underhill
“I really like your coloring on these, the bars on the second one add some interest to the picture.” –Tintinnabulator
“I love the colours you have used. And I really like the striped colour effect on the second button. The text is a litte hard to read but I like the fact it doesn’t interfere with the cute lil’ penguins.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“I have to say. Coloring, text, and the cool looking side thing is stupendous! It all reminds me of the beach, and it, in turn, reminding me of Madgascar with the four penguins. Great Job.” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>>>> <b>Erurainon</b> :: “Awesome buttons! Penguins forever! I like the scanlines and colors!” –Daisy Goldworthy
“Oh I love how simple, yet elegant yours are. Not much coloring, not much text, but very appealing. The coloring you did do though looks very nice, and I like the fonts you used. Great job!

” –Esmerelda Bramble
“Those are really great buttons! The second one really catches my attention because it has those lines going diagonally to the right. The color is really amazing too. I also loved how you changed the text when you switched from "Penguins" to "Forever". Awesome job!” –Marroc Underhill
“the colors and the motive, love them” –Zandain
“Very solid examples of bottons, however, they lack some of the pizazz the others have.” –Tintinnabulator
“I really like the colours and textures you have used. I love the bright blue of the first one and the sandy colour of the second. I really love the text on the second one. So true.” –Gwearyan Goatcloset
“I love the simplicity of yours. They look professional, but there is enough to them so you can see that it took work. Great job!” –Prisca Noakes
>>>>>>> <b>Johnny's Fan</b> :: “Again as beautiful as always! I love the pinkish glow to the first one, and the background lines of the second! Hard life for a penguin...

” –Daisy Goldworthy
“More bright and sunny ones! I really like the colors, they make me feel happy. And the stripes on the last one look very cool. Great work!” –Esmerelda Bramble
“I loved how she had all the awesome colors popping out at out when you first glance at it. The text is also really funny, and I couldn't help but laugh a bit. And the first one is equally as beautiful. I love how it has a general flow to the right, with the arrow pointing the same direction as the penguins are 'parading' Those are awesome buttons!” –Marroc Underhill
“Nice coloring, but I found the text hard to read on the second. I do like the little arrow though.” –Tintinnabulator
“The pink coloring is great! It looks like sunset is coming, and it makes me walk to go on to the beach with them. Then, the second one. I am loving the background, and the text is great. Although, if I were a penguin, I wouldn't complain.” –Prisca Noakes
