Please scroll down for the results of Round 12 and awards.
_______________________________________________________

Basic info -- recopied for reference.
+++++++++++++++++++
[x] Good day to all. This is a contest that which is very much different from all the other general contests. Only this contest, you have to be more creative with a limited amount of choices that are offered to you.

[x] The name of the game: As it is, it is called the Screencapture Contest, and as you may have noticed there are rounds to this contest meaning I will continue with contests in the same routine [with variables...well..varying. :p]

[x] Basically I will provide one or more screencaptures of various things. Whether it be Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, a picture of a book, or a landscape capture. You will then use those screencaptures to make your graphic [avatar, banner, etc.].

Rules:
- You must only use the screencaptures given to you.
- You must use them to make the required graphic (ie. Round: Avatar)
- Your entry must be a newly made entry. [Preferably with some kind of signature.]
- There will be no limit to the entries (meaning any number of people may enter), as long as it is entered by the date. Any entry given latter the date will be shown and recognized but will not be included in the judging (unless given a very good reason as to why you entered late).

[x] Judging: Judging the graphics will be up to other moderators and/or random members. However there will be no poll. I will survey individual people. There will be a 1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place, and honorable mention. I've added another place called Host's Choice, because I always want a certain one to have an award.

[x] Awards: Will not be guranteed the best in the world. I will try and see if anyone will be willing to make the awards at the end of contests or I will do to the best of my ability to make them, though take my word for it, my skills suck. I do, however, have the almighty useful Photoshop 7.0. I'll cook something up if I must.

Awards/Results of Round 12 [Arwen Undomiel]
Image Image
Our 1st Place Winner: Limwen Villya _________ Our 2nd Place Winner: Pandora
Image Image
Our two tied 3rd Place Holders: evenstar of mirkwood & Johnny's Fan
Image Image
Our Honorable Mention: ~Shieldmaiden~ ____________ Our Host's Choice: timtimtimtim

P.S. I made the awards again. Photoshop-hosted. If something's wrong, try again later.
P.P.S. A disappointing number of people that voted.

Those who voted/judged:
    1. Banana_Republic
    2. Estë Undómë
    3. SuperGirl
    4. Larael
    5. Luthien Star-Lover


Comments:
Everyone:
“Wonderful entries this time round!” –Larael
“I had such a hard time deciding... they are all so wonderful and artistic! Great job, everyone! :)” –Luthien Star-Lover

Enedlhach:
<i>“The simple black and white theme suits it well. The text looks a little out of place though. Great job!” –Luthien Star-Lover</i>

Limwen Villya:
“I think the text is very creative. It's sets it appart from the rest. I also love the plain-ness of the colour scheme, simple but enchanting.” –SuperGirl
“I picked Limwen's for 1st because of the individuality of the banner. All of them featured an orange or red theme, except hers. And, she added text that did not just consist of "Dom[inic] Monaghan". I thought that showed a lot of creativity on her part.” –Larael
“I love the qoute, it fits in with the pictures!” –Luthien Star-Lover

Pandora:
<i>“I liked the vibrant color and the texture.” –Este Undome
“I like the orange-yellow theme, everything in this banner works well!” –Luthien Star-Lover</i>

evenstar of mirkwood:
“It looks really affective in my opinion, nice combination of texts.” – Este Undome
“I like the effects and color on this one, although the text is a little hard to see. Very lovely, though!” –Luthien Star-Lover

Riniel Anariel:
<i>“The textures she's used look good and the font colour contrasts but also stands out.” –Este Undome
“The color and texture are great on this one, very nice.” –Luthien Star-Lover</i>

thedirector:
“Dom is a bit hard to see, but I like the black and red theme.” –Luthien Star-Lover

timtimtimtim:
<i>“It's another very good banner, nice and grungy. Lol.” –Este Undome
“And once again, another non-red/orange colour theme. I'm really into this individuality stuff as you can see. I also like the interesting texture on the banner and the prominence of Dom's eyes. No one else did that, making your banner special.” –Larael
“Lovely banner... I like it very much. A little scratchy looking, though.” –Luthien Star-Lover</i>

Morwen Anduril:
“I like how Dom's eyes stand out, and the design in the middle is cool!” –Luthien Star-Lover

Eldarwen:
<i>“I love the brushes used and the font, but i'm not a fan of orange. Sorry. Lovely banner overall though!” –SuperGirl
“I love the font and the curly looking brush effect, it is so pretty! it is a little busy though. Overall, great banner!” –Luthien Star-Lover</i>

Johnny's Fan:
“Again, this banner featured different text, showing the creativity of the creator. It was also very simple. I like simplicity a lot.” –Larael
“Soft and glowy... lovely! I love the quote too.” –Luthien Star-Lover

Maetharanel:
<i>“The effect used on the pictures is gorgeous and the text is very creative. It's looks a little unfinished though, if you get what I mean. Geogeous banner Mae!” -SuperGirl</i>

~Shieldmaiden~:
“Pink! No one else used pink, but you. Another really creative bit on your part. You pulled off the pink colour well. It wasn't too bright, and feminine, it was just right. Great job!” –Larael
“This one suits Dom perfectly... it is so creative! I really like it.” –Luthien Star-Lover

++++++++++++++++++
Thanks for participating!

Thanks for the comments on my banner, and for giving me the HM. I think this is only the second time I've gotten an award in one of these SC contests. I'll probably enter this round too.

Your particular banner was really appealing, ~Shieldmaiden~ and would've gotten my Host's Choice if you hadn't already gotten Honorable Mention. I think your banner had the most personality that relates to Dom.

Host's Choice! Awesome! :bounce:

School is not conducive to graphic making, so I'll judge this round, Kit. :)
