Well, the avatar contest has been closed for entries since Wed., can we expect to find out who the winners are today?
No - the results are expected in a fortnight.
The winners will possibly be announced later this afternoon.... Judging is still underway and it's proving to be very difficult. I've recruited more judges to help and once they get their votes in I'll start sorting everything out. We got a lot of great avatars, it's definitely going to be a very tough decision!
Are all (or at least the good ones) going to be made available for use for all the b.net members?[Edited on 7/2/2004 10:52:06 AM]

Yes, we have a lot of good submissions so I'll be awarding some impromptu 'consolation prizes' to the people who don't win but still have cool avatars that we want to put on the site. I'm debating the "worst" avatar... my feeling so far is that NO, it won't be available on the site because it's hideous. =)I was just doing some checking to make sure I remembered how to upload avatars so I had to post a test avatar... Fans of the maskless grunt should hurry over and check out the avatar page. =)
Ah man, I missed it
With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.
That is the Ugliest. Avatar. Ever.[Edited on 7/2/2004 5:24:26 PM]
Ugly in a cute way though. How can you not just love those little guys? With their cute little pearly whites and ear to ear smiles....
Heh, some smile...He's probably gagging on that-which-he-cannot-breath....
You know, if ducks had shorter beaks and teeth... I think their heads would look a lot like a Grunt's...

I hope I win something...*crosses fingers*

So I guess no contest winners today? or is that still a possibility?

how many entries were there?[Edited on 7/2/2004 7:31:51 PM]
This is a semi-on-topic question for Sketch (although I'm not sure whether or not he's seen the question already ;-) )Is there a chance that a non-Bungie related avatar submitted for approval (out of contest) can ever be accepted? I don't mean anything that advertises anything, or resembles anything already created. I'm thinking something thats original, and not offensive to anyone.I bet people could come up with pretty cool, original avatars that can be used publicly.
I'm shure this avatar of a grunt is winning... Best use of photoshop to this date... ;)Yes, its a grunt.
Yes. It said in the rules, it's good for entry, as long as it isn't copyrighted by anyone other than Bungie, Microsoft, or you. (that isn't a quote)
