SotM -- August 2010

You are allowed to enter any SotW entry you like (from this month) and go for the Artist of the Month title.
Rules:
1) Provide valid reasons for your number 1 vote. (You may vote for yourself for #2 or #3 positions if you truly think you deserve it, but if you do so you must provide additional reasons as to why yours belong there and the others fall short)
2) Rank all the entries in order, for the scoring system to be explained further down.
3) Judge the entry they picked to use in the SotW and not how well you think they did throughout the month. Part of the competition is to pick the 'best' entry you did that month.
4) Entries can be from SotW 9 - SotW 12

Scoring system:
Top 3 gets points as followed
1st - 5 points
2nd - 3 points
3rd - 1 point
The lower positions will be tracked for tie breaking reasons only if needed.
The scoring is separated by 2 point intervals to make the 1st position stronger so an overall trend of liking one sig in the 3rd position is less likely to win the competition.

3. me

1) Aids-Central focal offset by two minor focals that follow the rule of thirds
2) Dwlr-attempt at adding depth, shadows and highlights follow lighting.
3) Alison-Template sig, no attempt at blending and hard contrast

1. Dwlr-best of them all. The bg is awesome.

2.Zomb-great lighting. I love the light colors :3
