The complete details, yes.

The date is the 22nd of January, that's a Saturday.
We're still working out the hours.

I need to catch Tzu for the time when she can be at the party to announce the winners.
She will be tallying the votes and announce them. Since I am participating in the workshop, I cannot see the results or announce them.

When we have the walk in dates for the party, I will let you guys know

Congrats to all of you! Considering the quality of the posted winners, I bet the GW judges had a really, really hard time picking out just 20 (I had a really hard time giving my workshop votes and I bet we had a mere fraction of the ones that GW had to go through!)! As cheesy as it sounds, you all had amazing entries and all deserved to win something I honestly think the best part of the contests are these unofficial workshops (because we're working together), and I really hope no one feels discouraged and will still submit to the future contests

I agree with Thistle
Even if you didn't place in the official contest, please do come back to participate next time, especially in the Workshop! ^_^

Once I get to talk to Tzu on MSN, we will come up with an announcement regarding the workshops. Keep an eye out for that ^_^

Congratulations to everyone who placed or got an honorable mention. And to everyone who entered also. It takes a lot to enter a piece of your art for judging.

Congratulations to all the winners. All the participants did great as well! ANet should put more winner slots.

Gratz everyone who placed.
I guess my pencil just didn't cut it for Anet.
At least I still have the Workshop results to wait for.

EDIT: my forum thing is retarded and showed me the last entry was... not the last one I read T_T Never mind me lalalalalala *does a rickroll for myself*

Congratulations everyone from this workshop!
I'm not surprised I didn't place or win. Why should I? It's not like my entry was THAT funny anyway. I'd just be one of those you wonder "What are you doing there?" anyway. I Had fun making my entries, and I'd like to think I gained some progress in meantime

Aww well too bad. Guess I should go for a more portrait focus next time, seems to be more popular over at ArenaNet..

Zidane, Pery, I think you 2 deserved a spot in those list more then others. But ofcourse its not all about winning

I think it all sums up to taste when it comes to Anet's judging. I think I will keep entering contests, but mostly because I think it's fun to make an effort. Perhaps by next wintersday I'll have a comic with dwayna and grenth ;P I love making comics...

Minami, I am sad about this but I am not surprised, each year there are a few Anet winners that I extremely surprised about, and I think 'but we had several workshops entries way better than that!'

Obviously appreciation of art is very subjective, but I can only assume some of the workshop enties did not make it to the Anets inbox.

Oh and Kiya did you see the Santa skills on this entry?

Thats in interesting idea for a bracelet
Maybe we could come up with Nolani skills ^^

Well roll on the real prizes

WOW! Wait. Lol I browsed all the entries and went 'meh' as usual. Then I went studying and suddenly realised Minami's entry wasn't between them. I jumped up to check back if I was right.

So Minami, I'd just like to say.. Most undeserved. I'll go file a complaint to Anet for not including you in the prizes! Just keep in mind that Anets opinion doesn't say everything about your costume and know it was great. I at least thought it was a guaranteed win. Just sayin

No No No! keep on doing what seems right and enjoyable for you. The world doesn't need you and Nemisis and Shew and.... to all start making anodyne christmas cards like you can buy in any cheap store.

The world needs you to produce your own wonderful, crazy visions whether or not you win competitions.

Starve in a garret, Damn you!

Haha no worries Aeronwen I won't Like Minami already stated for herself, so will this be my last official contest I think. I'd rather do some personal works next time. I'm just really pissed because I had a real fun idea for everlasting workshop thing (a bit simular to the anatomy workshopthing Ravenhawk is running, but with different themes!) which I wanted to be able to have prizes for. But sadly enough I now don't.

But I'll restrain from Guild Wars art pretty soon anyway, want to do more personal thingies. But I'll still share it with you all! *spams*
