My vote goes to spiderboy4. It's just the most elegant and clean of the three up there. It's not particularly interesting to stare at for a while, but I actually like the simplicity of the image and the cleanliness just wins it for me.
PS: Wait what Krash isn't a mod anymore? When did that happen?
Since apparently you didn't see it, I posted a thread in Special Occasions about a month ago announcing my resignation due to lack of time. I was on break and hence had time for the past month, but that's not the case anymore and apparently the admins have decided this was the appropriate time for my resignation to kick in. So, I'm not a mod anymore as of sometime after I went to sleep last night.
First of all thanks, Stuff. Secondly, The entries here are all anime, which is weird.
@Zaph :: This is fairly/really clean for a cut out, which is good. I know how hard it is to apply a glow on transparencies and actually make it look contained in the banner without being cut off somewhere. You minimalized this and did a good job of making the banner flow with only one picture being allowed for use. Given a second source, this would probably look better. Its a good banner tho. The text is a little hard to read, but nothing that makes your eyes bleed.
@Stuff :: I like the colors and the effects on your banner, Its not as unique of a shape as Zaph's but it's very sleek. The text that sticks out could be a different color or maybe you could have carried the black lines behind the shape to include the text someway. It is not a good as the actual banner and what is with the hard line underneath the text on the right? I voted for you because it is clean and there seems to be a little more effects that make the image work.
@spiderboy4 :: what is that thing? It looks like a yellow rat..
Good job guys, I told you critique would be silly.
Hmmm, yeah, once I noticed, I looked around that place but I must have overlooked it..Does that mean you'll still be staying around after all?
I really don't know. I'm hoping to be around more than I was in September through December (which was basically none), but I'm definitely not going to be around as much as I was last year or over the summer when I was actually keeping up with everything.
In all likelihood, I'll keep checking the contests here (though likely I will continue not to enter them) and I'll keep playing a few games in the P&PI and that's about it. We'll see though.
This week's theme was a non-rectangular banner using a single piece of artwork (of the artist's choice).

I don't care if I was framed for murder if I only got a warning I would let it go.
I'll try to critique these, but it might seem silly.
