Contest Contest!
Entries are now closed, and judging has begun.
Yoda473's Contest Hall of Fame
Amateur Contest!
The winner was Pootis Looti for his entry The Secret of a Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich
Bracket Contest!
The winner was _HippyKat_ for her entry Toon Link
The runner-up was Estuary for her entry Sylvia Firestar
The Theme
Okay, so the theme this time is pretty awesome in my opinion. Take a contest here on PMC, whether it be an official contest, a smaller contest, a contest that's currently running or one that finished years ago, and find out what the theme for that is/was. That theme is the theme for your entry. So, you could have a Mona Lisa skin based on the theme for Orangepie's contest, you could build something cool using the map from the Into the Clouds official contest, or you could steal the theme from some random gaming contest and blog a review for a game, I don't care. Note that you don't have to follow the rules of said contest, just the theme.
Who can enter?
Unlike my previous contests, everyone is thrown together in one helping. So, anyone of any level can enter. But exactly like my previous contests, anything can be entered. Builds, skins, blogs, OCs, OCCs, artwork, adventure maps, maybe even a mod or resource pack. As long as it sticks to the theme.
The Rules
1. All PMC rules apply.
2. My previous contests may not be selected.
3. A contest without a theme may not be selected.
4. Your entry cannot have been uploaded prior to the first of April.
5. Your own contests may not be selected. Furthermore, the contests of other entrants may not be selected, unless you entered before them.
6. You are not obliged to create anything new for this contest, as long as rule 4 is followed.
7. If you discover an entry has broken one of the above rules, notify me with proof. If it breaks rule 1, notify a moderator as well so they can take appropriate action.
How to enter
It's pretty simple to enter. If your entry is something that can be uploaded to PMC's main site, do so. If not, upload it to an appropriate host, like Imgur or Mediafire. In either case, PM me a link to the entry or provide it in this thread, and I'll add it to the public list of entries.
Current Entrants and Their Entries
Orangepie - [Entry]
TheBatPanda - [Entry]
HippyKat - [Entry]
EnderDurant - [Entry]
The Due Date
Because I'm nice (and due to previous experiences) entries will close when winter arrives. In other words, entries must be uploaded before May 31st. This gives people plenty of time to see this and create their entry. I'll PM a reminder every week as soon as someone enters so nobody forgets.
Judging
Since you can enter anything, it's difficult to come up with suitable criteria for judging. But generally, everything can be judged on aesthetics, creativity and core quality.
Everything will probably also be a lot more interesting with multiple judges. So if you're not entering, feel free to become a judge.

The scores are in! We have, in fourth place:
TheBatPanda - 30/60
Third place:
Octoling (formerly known as Orangepie) - 41/60
And tying in first place:
HippyKat - 45/60
EnderDurant - 45/60
Without revealing exact judge scores, somebody scored equal for EnderDurant and HippyKat, and he'll choose a winner. For now, we wait.

Update: I just realised every entry is art-based, so the quality criterion is pretty much meaningless. We'll just be judging on appearance and creativity now.

lol

Alrighty then, the participants have waited long enough. Entries are now closed (ABigFatTomato chose to forfeit) and judging will now begin. that2guy, Chron and I will judge each entry out of 10 on appearance, creativity and quality, so that the overall score for each entry is out of 90.

The deadline creeps ever closer...
Judges are still welcome, but entrants... well, if you think you can get it done in time, you're welcome to try.

Whoa, forgot all about this! I'm starting on my skin today

Just out of curiosity, how will the judging work? Will all the judges judge all the submissions?
1
If it helps getting the PMC game up and running, I'll be a judge as well (if you want)
1
Okay, the help's appreciated!
Yup, and then I'll find the average score.
Haha, I need to PM everyone who's apparently forgotten.

Here's my entry!
I used a really old palette from PBL (http://www.planetminecraft.com/forums/post2721117.html#p2721117) (wow 2014 o.o) for it. Good luck to all the other entrants!
1
That palette has been on the site longer than I have... xD
Excellent entry! Hopefully there'll be more entries to judge before June.

yoda473EnderDurantWait where do you live? Winter starts on May 31st?
I live in the magical land of Tasmania, where bogans are aristocrats and it rains all year long (cloud seeding). I say May 31st because Australian June 1st starts early May 31st in Murica.
But I don't even live in "Murica"

yoda4735. Your own contests may not be selected. Furthermore, the contests of other entrants may not be selected, unless you entered before them.
Sorry, but it makes the theme too flexible.
