mtg131g, psynergy and breeze - you're images break one small but important rule in this competition. The file sizes exceed 150kb. If you could PM me your new file location and i'll change the post for you.

OriginNO_II, your filename needs to be the same as your username. This way we can identify who's entry belongs to who and makes it easier and quicker to set up the competition polls. Likewise, if you could PM me the new file location then that would be appreciated.

I will have the polls up hopefully by the end of the weekend, so if you fail to send them before the competition end date (which is tomorrow) then if they are in no later than sunday evening then i'll have to continue without them unfortunately. Any new entry recieved after tomorrow will not be accepted.
