Nice job Brandiwine.


Appleman............ You asked for it buddy, and it looks like you got it. I wouldn't want to be in your shoes in having to make this decision.


I'm really impressed with the talents of some of our newest members............. and some of our older ones can still surprise us.


Good job all.

Last call for entries. The contest closes tonight at midnight - give or take a time zone or two! I will begin compliling my favorites and will try to choose a winner in a day or two-busy weekend here(finally sunny and high in the 50s at least at last).


There are still a few who haven't submitted yet, get them in now.

Nice Joan, Thats another thing I need to learn how to do cause thats
cool! How do you accent the lettering like that? Probably alittle to
hard to explain though huh?

Brandiwine - I love it! Great, fun label. You've obviously got some experience with graphic arts. I'm looking forward to see what other labels you post!


Joan - what can I say? You never fail to amaze me. I think that last label is beautiful. It's simple andelegant... pure class with an edge. You not only have the skills, but I think your work shows that you have a true eye for design as well.


Appleman - there are some wonderful labels posted. Good luck trying to come up with a winner! I still have over 12 hours so I'm hoping I can geta designentered. I have a couple of ideas started, but need to work on my taxes first!I'm intimidatedby the existing entries though!

 

[brandiwine]

Thanks JS! I appreciate the compliment.
I just used photoshop, actually.

 

[Joanie]

Brandiwine, love your morphs!

Wade...you actually have to set your computer on fire to get the flames!

Thanks, Sang and Wade!

Appleman, thanks for the contest. No matter who wins, it's fun to have an idea and a "mission" as I refer to it. If someone gives me an idea I love running with it. You have helped me hone my skills and I thank you for that!

 

[brandiwine]

Thanks to Joan and Sangwich too.


I don't think I'll have time to submit anything else... gota ton of work to do myself... taxes are done though! : )

The contest period has now closed.


I need help choosing the winner since there are so many great entries. Please go to the Polls section and vote in the Nuclear Apple/Pepper Wine Contest Label Poll.


I will tally up the results next Saturday night and post the winner in the contest area and here next Sunday. Please vote for your top two choices out of these finalists. They are listed here in random order. I think they are all superb and would be proud to use any of them.



Also thank you to everyone who entered or at least tried even if they never sent their entry in. I wish I could choose many winners!


Thanks to all.

 

[grapeman]

I will announce the contest winner Sunday AM. I may have a surprise or two for you all then! Thanks again for everybodies entries. They are most appreciated and show the great talents our member have!

 

[OldWino1]

y all are amazzzzing That is some great stuff.

What does it taste like?

 

[grapeman]

And the first place winner of the Nuclear Apple/Pepper Wine is:


Joan and Brandiwine

Joan's entry was the runaway winner of the popular vote and is great,
however I LOVE BRANDIWINE'S label when it prints out. It jumps off the bottle at you. I have therefore decided they will both grace the bottles of Nuclear Apple/Pepper Wine-one on the front and one on the rear.


As their first place prize- George is providing EACH first place winner a $25.00 gift certificate. Let's all thank George for allowing me to have this contest.

They will each get 2 - 375 ml bottles of the wine, featuring their labels.


Here they are:


Joan's

and Brandiwine's

The other three runners up Jim Cook, Jobe05 and Waldo will each receive two bottles of the liquid magma also.


I want to thank everyone for participating in this event. Every one of the entries show imagination and talent. All your comments and support of the entries is appreciated.


Thank you and everyone have a nice Easter Sunday.Edited by: appleman

 

[sangwitch]

congratulations Joan and Bradiwine and all the runner-ups! Great entries one and all.

 

[jobe05]

CONGRADULATIONS JOAN & BRADIWINE........... Good job!

And congradulations to all the runner ups, JimCook, Waldo and lucky me!

Can't wait to taste this stuff, it sounds great!


Thanks Appleman for holding a great contest.Edited by: jobe05
