Rules for voting:
* Do not show your entry to anyone else and don't tell anyone which is yours AND DO NOT GUESS WHO IT IS. (If you do, and we find out. You will be disqualified, no joke.)
* Please have a good reason for voting, do not say "it was good out of all the other entries". it will be edited out of your post, or your post and vote will not be counted. You are to c&c or comment the entry you are voting for!!!!
* Do NOT vote for yourself if you are one of the "competitors". If you do, your vote wont be counted. Don't be selfish. You and your entry can, and will be knocked out of the contest if you vote for yourself.
* No chatting. Seriously, this is not the place to chat. That's what Random is for. If you are found chatting, your posts will be deleted without any warning. The creative staff will not be merciful.
* Do not guess at who made what signature. The entire point to this is to keep contestants anonymous to make sure there is fair voting. If you guess at who made what it will influence the final outcome. Don't do it. Or you will not be able to vote or participate. No warnings.
* Do not discuss whether or not you will enter. If you publicly announce that you will enter your submission will not be accepted.
No discussions related to this, WHATSOEVER.

Voting ends the 27th.

Entry 3 gets my vote.

The Image is well blended with the background. I love the simplicity in the background too and im not sure if its supposed to look like it or not but there seems to be a characters face faded into the upper right side. I also love the neat clean typography.

Simplicity has shined through and won the day :3

1 gmv.

I like the green colours. It seems to be contradicting with the red t-shirt slightly, but the colours give a kind of accent on the soccer field as the audience in the background. It has focus, yet I also like the after-image-ish thing.

And above all, IT'S RONALDO. 8D

[Niko]

i vote for #1

the lighting and clouds really help to keep the focal on ronaldo
love the creativity on it.

[Cuhw]

i give my vote for #1

the effects around him give the tag a depth
i like that
but the duplication bugs me a lil bit
kinda distracting a bit, maybe the opacity could be lowered

oh, another note
maybe the tag should be him in his latest club jersey.. ;D

[Ecstasy]

Entry 1

Great focal and good use of C4D in the piece as well. The smudged background also adds some good depth. Text is quite lovely.

[King Nothing]

I like number 2. I like how that it is vertical. My only gripe is that it seems to long and n on Ocean Love's placement which I could not see on my first glance.

[Stripe]

I'd like to vote for Number 3 <3
I adore the simplicity of it; it doesn't need anything added to it because it works as it is! Plus the typography is absolutely perfect <3 /typography snob

[VictorianTragedy]

I vote for Number 1. Why? 'Cause the graphics are very well done. The typography fits well with the signature and I love the coloring. Also, the faded copy of the render in the background is very well done and fits rather well with the signature.

[Break]

I vote first one D:

Reason being I think it is the most creative. I didn't expect an entry with love for soccer. That itself is quite creative already.
I would have adored it more if the opacity of the after image was lowered a tiny bit. It kind of distracts a bit.
Green and red are not a couple :C

[PickledOnion]

My vote goes to entry #1. The colours work well together yet they don't take the focus away from the render. I like the concept too. :3

[.Mich]

Hmm.. seems it's hard to choose ;o
So i guess i'll go with no. 3, it has good depth and good text, even though it's plain. But somehow the colors blend well with the sig.

My vote goes to no. 3

[Anni]

I vote the 3
i like it because is really simple, the typography is really good both for font and placement and the render is really well blended. it needs nothing more!

[Fae]

#3 GMV
While I wish there was more effects to it - it's simple yet clean, which is a plus; however, it seems a little dull, maybe add more colors and texture into it(?).. the text is well placed though. (:

[Ehryn]

I vote for number THREE



Number three seems to have gotten everything down pat, they typography is gorgeous and fits the image and it's a beautiful, simple piece that I could actually see myself using if it were made for me.

[Hautalken]

Dunno if the voting is still on, but:

ENTRY 1:

I love the v-ish flow to it, the depth and also how the red doesn't clash too much with the bright yellow. The colors overall are just right =3
C4D usage is not overdone which I really like, and the typography fits in well.
Clean and beautiful! It wins my vote =3

Voting ends tomorrow!^^
