Gentleman of Fortune Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 ***PRIZE UPDATE*** We had a glitch awhile back with the first contest, which resulted in some of the votes being deleted. To make it fair, we suspended the contest until I had enough energy to re-create everything. In the mean time, a lot of you have done sig graphics, and quite a lot of them are pretty darn good. So the contest will be back on. I am in the process of acutally hunting down sponsers for some prizes. Loyalist Arms has offered a $25 gift certifate to a winner! If you are thinking about a flintlock, please take time to check out their site! http://www.loyalistarms.freeservers.com/ne...roducts-01.html Track of the Wolf Has graciously provided free catelogs for all the Winners (1st, 2nd & 3rd) in each category. If you can't find something in their store you like, you don't like guns! Contest rules. You must be nominated by someone other than yourself and it must be posted in this thread. Nominations end on MAY 5 Do not canvass support for your pic in this thread. Depending on the prizes I get (or can secure) we may have several categories... Most original, Most Historical, etc. I can say that the prizes will at least include a Pirate T-shirt, Pirate book, re-enacting gear etc. Good Luck.

I wonder if one of the most important steps on our journey is the one in which we throw away the map. -- Loreena McKennitt My fathers knew of wind and tide, and my blood is maritime. -- Stan Rogers I don't pretend to be captain weird.

Barbados Sam Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 Not sure if this would count as self promotion, but I nominate Joshua Red for the work he did on my banner. "There be the chest, inside be the gold, we took them all. Spent them and traded them. We frittered them away on drink and food and pleasurable company. The more we gave them away, the more we came to realize... the drink would not satisfy, food turned to ash in our mouths, and all the pleasurable company in the world could not slake our lust. We are cursed men....Compelled by greed we were, and now we are consumed by it."
Patrick Hand Posted May 30, 2006 Posted May 30, 2006 Still playing with my banner...... It's a little larger than I'd like.... but it's only 26K.........
Rummy3 Posted May 30, 2006 Posted May 30, 2006 I never heard it called a banner before, Patrick Hand! Oh! Freudian slip - I mean to say, Patrick Hand - you look so dashing in your new signature line! Here's to you!
Barbados Sam Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 Did this thread die? What happened to the contest? "There be the chest, inside be the gold, we took them all. Spent them and traded them.
