Laughing Elephant Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 The Laughing Elephant is pleased to announce the 2005 Halloween Avatar Contest. The rules are very simple, and the prizes valuable! Here are the rules: Rule 1. One entry per user. Rule 2. Entries must be more or less avatar sized. Rule 3. You don't actually have to change your avatar, just post a picture. Prizes will be emailed to the winners in the form of PDF award certificates, suitable for printing and framing. Judging will be totally arbitrary, unless bribes of peanuts are received, since everyone knows what an elephant's favorite snack is. What are the judges looking for? Humor and creativity. That's it! Would you like an example? If an Elephant could enter the contest, here is a Halloween Avatar he might post: Quote Link to comment
