WinCustomize Fun Halloween Contest 2014

from WinCustomize Forums

It's been a while since we had a contest, and I thought it would be fun to put a quick one together for Halloween.  Halloween has always brought up some fun and unique skins, and people always seem to ask for new ones each year.  

See Halloween skins on WinCustomize.

This is just a quick, fun contest that is open to anyone and can be any skin, theme, wallpaper, etc. that is accepted on WinCustomize.  The only real requirement is it needs to have a Halloween theme to it.  The top 3 submissions will be voted on by WinCustomize admins/moderators based on the submissions creativity and quality.

Contest starts today, September 24th and will end on Monday, October 20th.  Winners will be announced once they have been determined.

Prizes:

Note: More prizes will most likely be added after I speak to a few people.

1st - 1 year Object Desktop subscription or renewal if already subscribed.

2nd - 1 year WinCustomize subscription, Choice of WindowBlinds, Deskscapes, Fences, ObjectDock, or CursorFX

3rd - Choice of WindowBlinds, Deskscapes, Fences, ObjectDock, or CursorFX

 

Requirements:

When submitting, add WC Halloween Contest 2014 in the top of the description.

Submissions must have a Halloween theme.

 

Rules:

WinCustomize moderation policies still apply

Submissions must be your own.  Any use of stock images or other images must have permissions included.

Multiple submissions are allowed, and encouraged! Remember though, quality over quantity.

Yeah...a WB would be tight.

-Might make some of my "smaller" ones if the time's there *_*

So happens I got a Xion in the works in need of a background. Guess I found one. Hmmm...maybe a mini-suite.

I would love to be part of this and make a WB. However I need 4 more days to finish the home project I'm doing. That would leave 12 days and even the 16 days is a bit short to make one correctly and not just thrown together.

Nice idea however.

Can the time be extended, say another week?

Even a quick , throw one together, from you would be good with your talents, cmon, you got something started in your vault of a million skins.

I will finish something, a blind and who knows.

There goes sleep for awhile,lol.

You guys are busy, short on time, I do understand, but you probably got something up your sleeves. Of course, maybe I can win if you all do nothing, maybe.! :grin:

yeah... doing creepy figures dressed in black... shrouded by cobwebs in graveyards at night with crows waiting to pounce and skeletal hands reaching up from beneath the earth while bats flutter overhead.....is so uplifting....   :w00t:

Time is short and i do have now two themes that i develop.

But don't worry i`m sure to submit a thing. perhaps a one day developped skin or a wallpaper. 10 oktober is my birthday b.t.w..

more time would be better!!!

Just an older oil painting, that might be a start for a wallpaper:

Already working on a different kind of pumpkin for Xion. Should lend itself nicely to a rainy and stuff.

Island Dog , sent you a PM about Dreams for this contest  :thumbsup:

I chose to end it on the 10th to give time so people can download skins for Halloween.  

I can extend it another week if that will help some.  It's not really a big deal to do that.
