May the best avatar win

Why does catcher's signature say Razorvch Lost One Nut?

Actually he lost one chocolate salty ball.

Anyway, it sucks that my 'It's a Mad, mad, Mad, Mad, World avatar was excluded on a trivial technicality...

So I shall include it as a write-in.
Vote Q.

As I recall, Duk volunteered to shrink it down if it wins.

You recall incorrectly.

I'm just as bad with graphics as the average player. Probably worse. If you wanted to enter it, you should have shrunk it down. Anyway, it's too late now.

Don't be a dik, Duk.

E & H looking like a big Round 2 showdown

[dakky21]

BTW in original contest post it says first four get a prize... how will you determine who is the fourth in a bracket? I guess all semifinalists would get a prize, but will there be a pool for 3rd and 4th prize?

I'm not being a dik. Or a dik-dik. If you're too lazy to download a free graphics editor and shrink down your own image, why should anybody else do it for you?

Hell, there's probably already something on your computer that will do the job. Or you could have sent a PM to any one of the dozens of people on CC that work with graphics and asked them, nicely, to do it for you. Certainly, assuming that I would solve your problem for you is not on the list of recommended solutions.


I really love that movie. I would definitely have voted for that image if you had submitted it. But don't try to make me feel bad because you're lazy.

Good point. I forgot 3rd and 4th have different prizes. We can have a runoff between the two during the finals as well.

I'm not lazy. I made the incredibly skilled and difficult aesthetic and culturally-informed selection of that particular image in the first place. AKA: Genius work.
All you (or some other CC employee) needed to do was do a little cubicle grunt mouse-clicking... Jeez.

You've made your point, nothing new is being added to your argument. You didn't follow the directions and as a result your submission was not included in the contest. Take this discussion elsewhere.

[riskllama]

lol, did anybody read the rules before submitting an entry?

[IcePack]

I did

[notyou2]

There's rules?


Are there cookies too?

[iAmCaffeine]

I only voted for H but I'm putting all 8 of my votes into it so currently H is on 20.

You can use paint to shrink images. Just paste the picture into paint and then shrink the box down. Then you need to find a way to upload it though. It's far easier to make it your own avatar and then just copy the image from there.

I know... I was just hoping that the mods wouldn't be quibbly sticklers about every little detail.

[riskllama]

paint shrinks stuff? i thought it just changed the colour...wow.

It also adds an essential layer of weatherproofing to any home.

Obviously you've never been flying. At the airport they have a full-time paint staff trained in the latest techniques. They paint the runways so that as you drive down them the world shrinks and when you get to the next runway the world grows big again. More proof that we live on a 2-d planet earth.

Looks like there is a tie between e & f... both with a much better score than most

Then just give it to E (My only vote, btw).

CC's seemingly huge contingent of George Michael fans already have two other choices to choose from.
Symbot, was this your doing?

E and F have gone to the community team for a vote. Round 2 will be posted once the results are in for the tie-breaker.
