D: Not a single vote, wow.

I voted Nick Alert as, I like the use of Smeargle, plus, must admit, better than mine.

seriously, nota singlevote?

I quite like the effect giving through use of the original starters, and the pixel overs look quite nice.
However, it looks a bit bright to me, what with the multiple use of pale colors.

It looks like a few sprites slapped on a generated background with some text, to me. Not to mention it looks .jpg (correct me if I'm wrong). It would've been nice to see some more sprite-y work, like "home-made" text and the like.

Nick Alert
I quite like this one. The general effect the multiple Smeargle create is a well applied one. I especially like that you used sprites from various games (correct me if I'm wrong) coupled with a pixel over.

My vote goes to Nick Alert

As all of you can probably tell, 31 people so far have voted in this poll, meaning at least 31 people actively visit the spriting forum. Now why don't we have at least 31 entries each time?

I participate in the ones that interest me, or the ones that I have time to be able to participate in.

I'm sure that is what others do as well. But I am curious as to why there aren't as many entries as you'd think there would be with this many people voting.

Perhaps because the VAST majority of people voting on this poll are just people who checked the forum once, seen that the poll was just about the ONLY recent thing in the forum going on, and voted it in it. It doesn't mean they actively check the forum, nor that they've done a sprite in their life.

And THEN, factor in how many people have enough free time to do a banner, one thats but a few weeks after a previous banner contest, and I'm sure you can do the math from there.

No more massacres.
Voting for Fused.
Also, I regularly lurk this forum (and I'm sure other people do too). I think that the reason that this week only got three entries was because of the amount of planning and effort it takes to make a banner.

I really can't do banners very well. I can't do pixel overs at all. I'm not concerned with making these skills better, so I don't enter the weeks. Or, I don't have the time.

I voted for you, Nick. Out of the two of you (Fused being the other) I felt on balance that I preferred it and it was a slightly better entry.

just a passerby
I voted for Nick Alert. I always loved Smeargle, and on top of that I really like the pixel-over and the general layout of the banner.
