Is this still going? Doubt I'd win, but I could really use the credits! |

Really glad I made the top 20!
Mizhir and Clitheroica are my favourites there too. Good-luck everyone! |

Oh dear. I'm new to EVE this week. I have no Corporation or friends!

Ahri deserves to win for that gesture alone. |

Which is fair enough. This will sound cheesy but that is why I don't try to enter contests since beauty is very individual. The important thing is that you like how your avatar looks. I went through a ton of variations from all the bloodlines before settling on this one, and I am quite happy with it. These topics that get generated by contest threads are amazing and I really enjoy seeing what others consider attractive weather it is a handsome look, androgynous boyish look, cold frosty beauty, busty barbie, or tough punk look. I was going for the girl next door, recent academy graduate look. Contests like this are subjective and should be taken with a grain of salt since it is all apples and oranges, or watermelons as the case often is here I have a small gallery of random capsulers that I have found attractive so far in my travels and they do vary in style. There is no way I could choose a top 3, or even top 20 out of them.
I spent so long making Quora and I'm actually not happy with her. I got her face pretty much just how I wanted it, but her body isn't quite right in places.. and it seems no matter how flat chested I tried to make her, vests still made her chest stick out like two watermelons!
I've since altered her hair too and removed the make-up. She looks very unnatural in the picture I submitted for the competition.
You're absolutely right though; the important thing IS that you like how your avatar looks. Beauty is subjective. |

Thanks Corina. I appreciate the comments. She actually looks like this now.
Trini, I have no idea why your avatar didn't make it into the top 20.. |

Yes I have also mentioned the lack of A cups since it is very true. I actually like the "smallest" setting sizes and find them a good match when all of the other settings set to thin, but find it a bit disturbing that the designers have a B/C cup as the lowest setting. It would also seem as though the portrait creator adds a good cup size compared to the character/WiS creator. Naturally it is very apparent when portrait is taken from the side. I completely agree with you that lowest setting is far from small. This is close to the smallest setting?? Celeste Gallente
What disturbs me more is the fact people actually use those ridiculous settings and believe that it's somehow attractive. I don't know. Perhaps I'm a sucker for realism when it comes to these things. |

I changed my avatar. It's just been updated, so if someone wants to take my place, they can. |

Thanks Serene, but there are so many better than mine that didn't even make the list. It wouldn't be a true win even if I did.

Valentine! I absolutely love your new avatar! I'd change the hair colour though if it were up to me; maybe a dark blonde going on mousey brown. Great pose though. |

You didn't make the list, Meryl. There's a vote being held now on the top 20. |

A lot of avatars that I'd have considered attractive didn't make the list. |

Your small forum portrait doesn't do the full size avatar justice. Bring her closer to the camera so we can all see what a beauty she is! |

Thanks Pi and Valentine. Much appreciated.
Noriko, you're not the first person to mention that. My friend messaged me the second I did it and told me I'd ruined her! There were some clipping issues and I thought she looked too.. trying to think of a good word here, but all I can think of is kawaii? She basically looked like something straight out of Sailor Moon, which wasn't what I wanted for her.
Thanks for your feed-back though Noriko. |

Jack said that the voting would stop on Sunday, so I guess he'll announce you the winner tomorrow, Fox. Hehe. |

I'd assume it's a three horse race between Clitheroica, Mizhir and Valentine.. and since Valentine changed her pose I think she now stands the best chance. I'd like to think I'm in with a shot too, I could really use the credits! |

Congratulations Asuka!
Completely not who I thought would win it, but votes are votes I guess. Do you have the final tally Jack? I'd love to see who placed where in the top five. |

Somehow I doubt that, because, subjectively, even among the chosen 20 someone else should've been the winner (IMO, either Brit Green, or the person I am quoting now, perhaps?), and yet we saw what we saw... But, truth be told, I am a little more surprised to see such a low amount of votes than the resut itself. Still, congratulations are in order.
I think there weren't many votes because a lot of the people didn't agree with the top 20 list in the first place. I'd quite like someone to start another competition with a different format. It was fun seeing all the different entries. |
