And a mention to Topher, good animation and concept, but the banner composition has just not enough novelty to me (besides he's already good enough to grab almost every vote - so one missing vote wouldn't hurt )
But we arent looking for novelty... we're looking for a good animated banner.

And an additional note: A long time ago, someone started to use a card banner, then it was shiny and new - everybody (okay, that's a hyperbole) wanted one, because it looked good!
Then fogatog & co. swamped MTGS with grunge-banners, and Nex3 introduced larger .pngs to us, causing many to use a banner with transparency - so IMHO, novelty makes something "Oohh... shiny!" and thus attractive and thus good!
1. It was Topher who started the card banners
2. But Topher's IS ooh shiny. it sparkles!

Right... but a good banner in a contest is a banner that grips you, that just appeals to you... and I'd to decide between Craven and Topher... and then the concept just gripped me, because it was something... different

Pfft, grunge is awesome.
Not many people stole borders, which made me happy.
Actually, Xander created the first Card Banners for the House Dimir clan. I was just the first (and apparently the best) to recreate them in an easy to use template form. Because of that, I was able to grant several requests in my shop.
And Hooray! I'm winning!
Too bad I won't win next week. I should have spent more time on my Beerfest inspired banner.
