Sk - you shouldn't withdraw! What if one of my two choices is yours?! I'm torn between two - I don't know who made which banners - you're right about voting contests though. They'll never be fair. I wish vendors would stop them. I've won a couple and it makes me feel guilty.... and I get mad when I see people soliciting votes - it's a no win situation. (um... except for the actual winner I guess...)

Thanks!! Mine haven't been removed yet... ;)

And I'm no Angel, either... I will admit to soliciting votes for a contest before... but I did it by PM to a couple of friends, and only because 2 of us were running neck and neck, and I really wanted the prize for a contest I was having!! I know that doesn't excuse it... but my Kharma is still pretty good... :D

I don't think I could enjoy a Prize that I didn't earn on my own, especially when it is a TALENT based Contest... but we ALL know how fickle the Random # drawings can be... Right Ripple?? LMAO!!!

That was the first version and I inverted it later... My Lucky Post #13, too!!

It doesn't help much knowing that it's the one that Eric from VS would've chosen, either... icon_cry.gif

Just chiming in. I had a Michelle who was my first love. She didn't so much break my heart, as she tore it out, spit on it, then repeatedly stomped on it. I am surprised I'm not on Uncle's side after how she treated me! (She then went on to be an "enhanced" topless dancer.)

But as long as you are not her, welcome Miche (or Chelle3, or spanx).

Good to see sk in here commiserating!


lol... nope not me :D

Here is a purr-fect example of why I just LOATHE contests that depend on the most "Likes" and/or Votes to win... and the people who feel the need to stack the deck in their favor by soliciting votes in order to win... View attachment 103167

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/vapor-station/299840-contest-vote-official-2012-vapor-station-brand-ecf-signature-banner.html

I have chosen to withdraw from this contest because there is no way to have a fair vote anymore... but if you want to cast your vote, please do it for any of the choices EXCEPT the one with the most votes right now (G1)... :D LMAO!!!


As soon as I saw it was a "likes" contest, I knew I had wasted my time (yet again) and I closed the web page never to be looked at again.

Why do I waste my time entering those contests... :facepalm:

But you and I are TIED so far... for what that's worth... :unsure:

Eric asked me what I thought, but he had already posted his decision before he got my reply. I said that he should just give everyone who entered a bottle of juice, and pick the one that HE wanted for his banner!!
Of course, that was before I knew that he liked mine the best... LOL!! But then he likes your's, too... ;)

Too bad that :censored: had to go and spoil it for the rest of us!!!


(P.S. I posted a song for you in the OP entry thread...)

I like pitching my work to real world corporate types, because I get to tell them what they like... :lol:

This is one of my favorites. I spent to much time on it and still lost miserably...

Have you considered just entering contests for the fun of the challenge? You give yourself points for creative ideas and overall composition rather than just kissing up to the vendor and see where that takes you. :lol:


That's what I do, I don't care if I win any more tbh -- well, unless its a cool mod!!!:laugh:

Congrats to whomever won what, SK and CJ have confused me immensely.......:)
