And the winner is ...

Outstanding effort by the Sarge. Based on time, he clearly worked harder than anyone else on his entry. He overcame some nasty computer problems in order to participate. And he challenged my creativity for calling for a contest he had a chance of winning. Shame on anyone who did not see this winner coming.

Welcome to the game, Ananda!

I hate to go from happy welcome to nag, but we do try to keep Final Chronicles spoilers out of Gen Disc.

Anyway, you won't lose points for pandering to THOOLAH in this game. But I will try to save your soul at a later point. :)

Edit to say: Wait. You belong to Linden's Army? My my my ... folks, I think we have a player ...

Excellent entries so far, but, Lorin's Infelice Interpretation is one I never would've imagined, but, can totally see working.
So, I'm leaning that way for Originality, so far...

ETA:

Sarge, I totally picture you as Hile Troy

Ananda, Linden looks like Billie Piper from her Doctor Who Days , this is good, because, I never saw Rose in that kinda role, and it would be fascinating to see her that outta control

bah.
I am terrible at this sort of thing.

I couldn't get the face to do what I wanted, so I uploaded a photo. But, while I wanted to use Audrey Hepburn, the terms of use say to only use photos you own, so that was out and I went with what I had, wrong race and all. Then, I couldn't find a garland of yellow flowers for a headdress, and it wouldn't let me upload a photo for those, so my entry had to do without.

Finally, I couldn't find just a plain brown shift, so I went with as simple a dress as I could find.

So, I'm not happy with this, but here is the best I could do for Winhome Gay.
...may she forgive me.

Cute, menolly. Looks a bit familiar for some reason ... :wink:

Nice, Balon.

Looks like this is shaping up into a contest.

(And I swear that this thread lost my post from yesterday.)
