Welcome to the Weekly Contest! If you have any questions or comments regarding the rules, please take them to the Rules Discussion. If you'd like to suggest a theme for next week's contest, please do so in the Suggestion Box. If you have any other questions or comments, feel free to send a PM to me or ExpiredRascals.
Theme
I felt like sticking to sort of open ended but yet still themed was still a good direction for now. This week is the Week of the Villain. Often they don't get nearly enough credit for all the hard work they put into their jobs. Lets give them a week and have some fun. This can really cover about anything you want between favorite superhero villains, anime, movies, books, magic cards / whatever.
(remember we need some suggestions too rather than me just pulling things out of a hat. The suggestion box is useful for ideas and please feel free to comment if you like a suggestion.)
Deadline
Entries must be submitted before the thread for next week's contest is posted on Monday, September 23rd, 2013.
Rules
General:
A new contest and a poll for the old contest is posted every Monday (give or take a few due to timezones).
You may not vote for your own entry.
Gimmick accounts cannot submit entries.
You may not post just to list the people you voted for; you must provide some additional content, such as your reasoning for voting as such.
Submitting Entries:
You may send in entries until the poll is up.
Once you have posted an entry, you may only make minor changes to it. All such minor changes must be okayed by a contest moderator.
Entries that don't fit the theme are not allowed, unless allowed by the moderator.
All entries should be made in full by the submitter. This includes resizing
Your entry can only consist of one banner/avatar/wallpaper, unless otherwise specified. No rotating banners, no sets.
All entries have to be created for the contest; you cannot submit something you made for some other purpose.
All art must be cited. For card art, simple card tags will do, otherwise please provide the artist's name and a link to the art. Please note whenever any of this information is unavailable or if you used original pieces.
You may use non-magic art as long as the contest doesn't say otherwise.
If you have any question about whether your entry falls within the rules, please PM one of the moderators about it before posting the banner.
Schedule:
Every week that ends in zero, we'll have a wallpaper contest.
Every other week will be either an avatar contest, a banner contest, or both.
Avatars:
Avatars must be between 50x50 and 100x100 pixels.
Avatars may be animated.
Avatars must be usable as a forum avatar. This means that they should be less than 40KB in filesize.
Banners:
Sig submissions cannot be larger than 600x100 or 450x150. They can be no smaller than 300x50 or 225x75. Given the theme, the sizes can vary.
Banners cannot be animated unless the theme states otherwise.
Animated banners cannot have a file size greater than 500 KB.
Wallpapers:
Wallpapers must be between 800x600 and 1280x1024 pixels; no smaller or bigger.
Wallpapers cannot have animation.
Trophies:
Trophies will be awarded for every three contests a participant wins.

Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.
Here is my application for Dr. Facilier from Princess and the Frog. Its odd but he is honestly one of the better villains I have seen in a while.
Its another rather crude entry which I will again apologize for. Perhaps one day I will look into how to properly do things lol. That or just crudely do it for long enough to know how to do something more than basic stuff. I took the cool shadow guys he did and sort of meshed it with the transformation scene + magic for some fun times :D. It amuses me at least and that's I guess all I need.

A little small I know. The original is 400x200, but that's too big for the contest. I just prefer making them at those dimensions.
