Voting: Annual Logo Contest

Thank you to those who participated in the recent Anime Online logo contest. I know many of you have really put in a lot of time in creating these wonderful banners. I am truly thankful for members putting in a lot of time and effort for free to help AO. It's been a real delight looking at the range of new banners, and I can't wait to use them at AO.

Acknowledgments to Xelhes, but unfortunately your banners did not fit the contest rules of having a solid colour at the right of each banner.

Below you will see 1 sample from each of the participants. I suggest taking a look also at the Banners Gallery for their full range before casting your vote.

Please take your time in voting as the winner's banners will be used at the header of each page. Voting ends in 10 days from today.

:1st: Prize: Your name at the bottom of each page replacing "Anime Online Buttons by Trunks. ©" Trunks has kindly offered to have his name removed to make way for this contest.

Runner-Up (x2): Storm Hawks DVD and t-shirt.
Entry Bonus 1: Inclusion in the banner rotation at a later date. If all submissions are of high quality, then all submissions will be included in the rotation.
Entry Bonus 2: 100 credit points for all participants.

A plea:

Some of you are not the most honest voters. Some of you ALWAYS vote for your friends. Some of you have histories of making double accounts to vote twice. Some of you whine or intimidate others if you don't get the votes you think you deserve. Some of you vote for ANYTHING as long as it has a chick on it... or features your favorite series...

But this time: this is going on our site and it's going to represent us all. PLEASE vote fairly for what you think is the best graphics' work. ~_~;

I'm a .hack fan but I also like original work so it was a hard choice, but I picked deftbeat's.

I had to pick between zyta and fooligar....very hard. I like the anime and zyta's and they were good and fooligar was cool. I like the design, but i had to choose zyta's. Very nice zyta's!!^^ I liked everyones too cery hard to choose. I hope you all do great!!!^^

can contestants vote?! :D

fooligar's is simply awesome, you're definately the one to beat, as always. :hattip:

Good luck to everyone who has entered.

i likes all of them so it was really hard for me to chose just one but i guess i voted for zyta..

fooligar: I was liking yours till I saw the other sections. [o.o]/ So question since the Holidays are over, is that one still going to be placed in rotate?
