Vote for the Best Talk Budgies Poster!

[Budgiekin]

Thank you to everyone who participated in the first Talk Budgies poster contest!

The entries are all in and compiled. Now is your chance to vote for the one you think would best encourage new budgie owners to visit and join our forums!

Each poster will appear in its own message in this thread as an attachment. There are 9 in total. (This is the only way we can keep the posters clearly identified by number and have them at a decent resolution for viewing...)

By the way, we have deliberately left the names off of the entries (i.e. removed/blurred them on the posters). We'll reveal those after the winner is chosen.

Voting will close in 15 days from today's date.

Please make sure you view all of the entries before placing your vote!

number 7 worked for me:S Wonderful job, everyone! :)

[Budgiekin]

I'm not sure why #7 doesn't work for you Sigrid. I re-uploaded the attachment to see if that helps.

[ronsig]

...now it works.
They are all wonderful. I have to think...

That was hard to decide.

[Budgietom]

WOW great posters. I am pretty sure I know who did which. Oh Gosh mine is the worst :o Ahwell I had a go... :D

[Budgier]

I think I know which one you did just from your birds ;) And I don't think it was bad! I really liked it :) Besides, no poster could be bad when we use such pretty birds in them :)

[Rosie]

They were all amazing! :D But obviously I had to settle for one....:)

[Ollie'sMama]

Oh my, they are ALL gorgeous! I'm very impressed by all the creativity (being that I have zero creativity). ;) This is really difficult to decide....off to think about it. Great job, everyone!

P.S. Wanted to point out typo on Poster #4, line 14 - "If your just starting out" - "your" should be "you're" (sorry....can't help the editor side of me, lol).

[miissemilyx33]

Ah man I should have gone with my original design...

I was going to do the same thing number 8 did, I just couldn't figure out how to fit it in with my design.

[lilifield]

I had a really tough time voting. I could picture every entry in a store or bulletin board. Very talented people here!

[califjewls]

Great job everyone!! There was something I loved about each poster, it was a hard decision, I had to look at them 3 or 4 times each. Great job!!

[buddiesdad]

well that wasn't an easy decision to make at all....everyone did a great job!

[Violetblue]

Great job, everyone!

[BabycakesKristen]

Great posters everyone!!! We sure have some talented people around here!! ;)

[Pippin's mom]

Wow! That was a hard decision! Great posters everyone!:D

[Budgier]

Isn't it a shame we have 4652 members and can only get 48 members to vote..:(

I was thinking the same thing, But I think it might have something to do with getting lost in the shuffle - I have to keep hunting it down to find it, if no one's said anything new

and alot of the members that are listed in the members section I've never seen post anything

[Pippin's mom]

Vote people, vote! :D

[stacey101]

I voted yay me :P haha

Although we have all these members, only about 150 post. The others have just left. Also, I find it hard getting to this thread. I have to search through pages till I find it. Thats why sometimes I post comments on it so it can stay ontop of the pile.

Just because members don't post doesn't mean they have left.:) Lots of members post only on occausion, some lurk.

I don't understand why some of you are having trouble finding this thread. Just scroll down to Competitions and its right there.:)

Its true but it doesn't happen often. In all my time on this site very rarely have I seen people occasionally posting. They either ARE or AREN'T.

[atvchick95]

I was bored earlier (actually frustrated w/ my printer) but I was going through the Members list for the 1st time , and was just going through names and saw some haven't logged on since like 2006 :(

I know its so sad. You hardly get people posting here, who joined in 2006. It is so sad. Only the mods from 06 post...

I could name several names, but of course I won't.;) There are definitely people who only post once in awhile.

[huskymom]

I´m tore between # 2 and # 8.....

I like their designs.... but I would combine them.... LOL (graphic designer showing up).....I´m sorry I did not see this earlier.... if I had time I would have done one too......

[Budgiekin]

I'm sorry you didn't have a chance to participate huskymom. It would have been neat to see your entry too. ;)

I agree! Perhaps we should make it that everyone who votes gets karma? Just an idea...

[Mithu]

I voted me :)

[AngelWings]

i voted too :)

[Budgietom]

I think we have a clear winner...

[pal0m1n0]

I actually, really, really like number 3. The only reason I didn't vote for it is because printing it would be really costly for anyone considering printing it at home. It would make a fabulous desktop wallpaper though.


Did I mention how much I like number 3? :)

[Donna]

Thanks for all of the hard work everyone went to, in order to create their own poster.

You all did a super job.

[Budgiekin]

The voting is now officially closed! Thank you to all who participated in the poster design and in voting! I'll be making a separate announcement about the winner very shortly! :)

[caroline23]

I really think number 2 should have won.
