Hello All!!
Thank you SO much for participating! I had an amazing time reading this thread and watching everyone submit entries. Unfortunately the judging to longer than expected, but we got there none the less and have some great winners!

To start with, we created 5 addition categories to place extra winners into. We had so much fun judging them all, that we couldn't possibly just leave it at only 3 winners.
The first category was Humor. This was as simple as which image did you just keep coming back to? Which one did the judges just find hilarious.
Second, we chose Creativity. Being a contest based on creativity, some extra prizes for it seemed fitting. This was for those images that took a very imaginative approach.
Third, Simplicity. This category was for the images that got straight to the point. Where you looked at the it and the skill and thought "Well... can't really argue with that."
Fourth was the strangest image category. We wanted to create this category for those images that interpreted the words in a manner that was completely different and we NEVER would have thought of... an idea that totally took us by surprise.
Finally, the best Mangling of the original text. This category was for the images that took the most creative liberty with the actual text of the words that they were illustrating.

So without further adieu I'd love to present our winners!
Each winner in the following categories gets a prize of 10,000 gold, 4 Globs of Ectoplasm, and 1 Obsidian Shard.
Humor:
Headbutt from Sjeng (Guildwars Guru)

Shell Shock from Arden Kindlecorpse (Guildwars Guru)

Creativity:
Diversion from Arduinna (Guildwars Guru)

Illusion of Haste from Nerevar (Guildwars Guru)

Simplicity:
Triple Chop from salmondefender (Guildwars Guru)

Tease from Minelle Tempest (Guildwars Online)

Strangest:
Juvenile Termite Leg from Little Shenanigan (Guildwars Guru)

Parasitic Bond from Sheol (Guildwars Guru)

Mangling:
Catacombs of Cathandrax from Stig Figger (Guildwars Guru)

Twin Moon Sweep from dark3 (Guildwars Online)

For Third Place the prize is materials and gold for a set of three destroyer weapons, our winner is...
Guild Wars by H2SO4 Guildwars Guru

Second Place the prize is an armbrace of truth, our winner is...
Dancing Daggers by RavenGT from Guildwars Guru

And finally, the first place prize, a fully paid for set of Fissure of Woe armor with a [DVDF] escort to the forgemaster goes to...:
Edge of Extinction by Torsen1 from Guildwars Guru
