I hope that the calenders background isnt the winner............... [!--emo&:blink:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/blink.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'blink.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

Here's one of my two entries....before I added the background shadows....

I must say...that is fucking nice...too bad you didnt win though, it wouldve been nice if you did, and they couldve recognized your geneous...theres always next year
 
Tap, that first image is just priceless! [!--emo&:D--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/biggrin.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'biggrin.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
you'll get it next year, im sure of it

Edit- im sure I said that last time aswell...
 
Unlucky mate! Its a good picture, I was sure you'd be in the runnings for winning this year... they probably had to choose between the winner's and yours [!--emo&:D--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/biggrin.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'biggrin.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

I hope the winning entry isn't a load of pap like last year.
 
Did they look at yours???? You are Derek Riggs!

They are picking things to give to their wifes and kids ... so it can't be scary [!--emo&:angry:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/mad.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'mad.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Genius... Pity real art is not considered for the card they choose at the end [!--emo&:angry:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/mad.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'mad.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Where is the card that actually won, and the other contenders? I would like to see them if they are thought of as better than Tap's work.
 
Dude, this is priceless... and I admire your optimism; even I, an almost uncurable optimist would simply give up after two or three defeats with awesome pics...
 
I love the Christmas hieroglyphs.

Tap, did you see in the Ed-vent calendar that someone had a similar idea ?

you can watch it [a href=\'http://www.ironmaiden.com/xmascalendar/index.php?i=4\' target=\'_blank\']here[/a]
 
Hey , I'm not Derek ! I'm better looking than him !!!!!!!!!

[!--emo&:P--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/tongue.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'tongue.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

Actually I'm supposed to look like Adrian Blaze Burr......thats what you guys tell me.......
[!--emo&:blink:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/blink.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'blink.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

I have some ideas for next year that I'll start working on when they announce X-Mas 2006....we'll see what happens then.

I'm not too miffed bynot getting picked....I expected to get passed up anyway....espeically after my whole TMNT catastrophe back in 1986 or so....



Syl: Yeah , that was done by my Geordie Trouble and Strifer Lou. We both worked on our cards at the same time , hence 2 Powerslaves and 2 P.O.M.'s...She got 2 doodles on the calender as well.
She just started messing around with the paintshop animater and made a hilarious animated GIF of one of my paintings....wait till you see it !
 
Is today's entry in the official site's Ed-Vent Calendar your other card?

Excellent work as always, but given the dreadful stuff that usually conquers first place I'm not surprised you didn't win...
 
Hey, is Lou Pons in any way related to you? The main idea is simmilar... Is he your son, perhaps?

Ace, here's a subtlety of the English language for you:

Trouble and strife = Wife



Got it? [!--emo&^_^--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/happy.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'happy.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

Points at Black Ace and shouts
"PWNED!"

here's a hint. If you want your card chosen next year, you only need to avoid one mistake you're making. Make sure the next entry has something to do with the artwork of the release they'll be trying to promote at the time. Thats why the last 2 Crap Xmas card were chosen. The 2003 one to promote ETG and the 2004 one to promote the NOB single rerelease.
