Quality	Is the emoticon well made? Are there floating white pixels? If it's animated, does the animation loop well?	/20
Originality	Is the idea original? Or has it been done to death before?	/10
Clarity	Is it easy to see what it's expressing without squinting?	/10

• 75 % of the winner shall be determined by the contest's appointed judge(s).
• 25 % of the winner shall be determined by the results of a public poll.

Inviting your friends to vote for you, bribing random members with rep and otherwise cheating with the VB poll system will get you DISQUALIFIED, BANNED from future contests, -REPPED, and possibly INFRACTED. So don't do it!

This includes, but is not limited to, sending PMs out to various users, getting other people to send those PMs, advertising this contest on other sites with the intention to gain more votes (whether it is explicitly stated or not), and so on. If you are suspected of cheating, the staff will notify you and interrogate you (hopefully) over PMs. <3​

 

[Deolrin]

Voted for Chrome's emoticons; I wish he'd do a black one though, like evil grin or something.

Close second would be DVO for me and third would be Mr.Goblin.

Good job to all the contestants, though. Everyone did an awesome job.

Is there any chance that the winner's emoticons will be added to the Hive's bunch like always?

Probably

 

[Dratz]

Voted for DVO, he has the best emotes. Mr. Goblin is second for me, and third.. I dunno.
Chrome has some awesome art right there, but those dragons aren't really emotes imo. Just smiling and all.. lol

 

[Statharas]

I voted for DVO. His first Emoticon seems to be really useful to me.

PS. Those Voidwalkers should also get into our Emoticon list :v I like those as well.

 

[Lich Prince]

There are too many awesome emoticons, it's too fucking hard to choose a favorite.

Numerion you azz, did you vote for yourself on purpose =P?

 

[Chizume]

The owlbears by shamanyouranus are in a different league, so to speak, and thus get my vote. Very good. 67chrome's dragons was next best and pretty neat.

 

[idodik]

There are some goddamn professional good emotions in this contest, on the contrary some are plain wannabe. (Not that I'd be worth anything in this contest)
I vote for Voids, because of their extraordinarily awesome detail.
Other awesome emotion sets that I recommend to be added: Mr.Goblin's goblins, Just_Spectating's Draenei, and Jaret's neutrals.

 

[viiva]

Voted 67chrome's Dragons. Next for me would be Mr. Goblin's goblins and third hunalexnl's Voidwalkers.

 

[Soul Theft]

i so loveeee supertoinkz tuskarrs they are awesome....my vote goes to him

 

[Kala]

hunalexnl and Mr.Goblin has best emoticons imo, and i voted for hunalexnl

 

[AlienAtSystem]

I vote for hunalexnl. The Voidwalkers are both useful and good looking.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

Imo, owls bears and goblins r the best, bust since goblin has a fail tnt, suicide bomb. He takes my Vote. Its going to be close, goodluck both of you.

 

[PROXY]

Chromes Dragons are so sick. Will use them forever. Dan's ogres are also awsome. In fact, (nearly) every emoticon is brilliant in this contest

 

[Numerion]

Numerion you azz, did you vote for yourself on purpose =P?

yes, otherwise I wouldn't get any votes (I would vote for Jaret/chrome)

 

[Jaret]

I voted for Hunalexnl, he deserves to win this one. Now I see.... whaa? Where's red shift's entry? Those Gnolls? I remember them, They look'd cool, and he had 3 emoticons... He should have been on the list too... Ah, nvm.

Here's his post... but no emoticons, since they have been in teh pastebin.

 

[Pyritie]

yes, otherwise I wouldn't get any votes (I would vote for Jaret/chrome)

apparently you didn't read the rules

 

[Numerion]

apparently you didn't read the rules

oh yeah, I didn't (could you remove my vote, or just of course don't count it ? )

 

[kola]

aww. Still got not votes D:.. anyway i voted for chrome. Awesome dragons.

 

[Link2006155]

i wish i can vote for ever one there all good well...besides 1

 

[67chrome]

Lots of cool stuff here, several of these have a very nice style and some exquisite details. I had to go for Dan Van Ohllus though, his emote icons just seem to display a lot of emotion and several emotions we currently don't have any emote icons for.

Wish there was a face palm emote some-ware in this contest though, no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get it to look right on a dragon

 

[Whiskey]

oh yeah, I didn't (could you remove my vote, or just of course don't count it ? )

nope. disqualified.

 

[kola]

Wish there was a face palm emote some-ware in this contest though

red-shift did one.

 

[The Panda]

Its getting close here, nice job everyone!

 

[Sheephunter]

One word VOID! why? cuz was the best looking and creative.

 

[HappyCockroach]

I just fell in love with DVO's entry.

 

[Yixx]

the voidwalkers definitely did it for me, then Goblins, Ogres and Dragons. (Not in that order though.. )

 

[Jaret]

Well, I got just 2 votes... Now I get why only 2 votes... I didn't make emotions... I wanted to create them as HQ, detailed and Warcraft-ish as possible... Well, HQ, deatiled, Warcraft-ish and Emotes Aren't possible all at the same time

... Well, I suppose still For Hunalexnl to win.

And btw... I'm very interested in why there are only 2 thumbs up emoticons in this contest...

 

[Krl70]

Yay, i reached my goal, a vote!

Anyways i voted for 67chrome, not too detailed, but still life-like, if you get what im saying

 

[InfinateAnswers]

Only reason i didnt like the void walkers, is just it was ugly. Not the animation the void walkers... if u had chosen anything but the void walkers i wouldve voted for you.

 

[Joe-black-5]

Dvo, Mr.Goblin and hunalexnl
:/
Now who to vote for...
Edit: Ill go with Dan XD I love his style

 

[HappyCockroach]

lol, how come DVO isn't leading this. his entry is the best imo because they are so different one from another and they represent emoticons that we'd certainly use, and very expressively.

The dragon one doesn't represent anything but a dragon's face drawing.
The goblin one has too tiny expressions, so it doesn't work well as an emoticon.
The voidwalker is quite cool, but the ogres are so much better made and expressive.

 

[Joe-black-5]

The dragon one doesn't represent anything but a dragon's face drawing.

At least he will get py's vote

 

[viiva]

Voidwalkers are very clear and expressive, and I didn't vote for DVO because i didn't understand half of his emoticons... what is Hurr hurr / Troll face and DAT ASS? I like Haosis smile though

 

[Lich Prince]

It's disappointing that Jaret and supertoinkz have such few votes. And I expected much more votes for DVO.

 

[Kuhneghetz]

Hurr hurr / Troll face

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=hurr
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=troll+face

That emote works for both.

DAT ASS?

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=dat+ass


Ontopic:
I voted for 67chrome's thumbs up dragon.

 

[Mr.Goblin]

my vote goes to Just_spectating because even tough he doesn't have the ''best looking'' emoticons, look wise and color wise... he clearly is the one that made the most impressive animations...

the animations he made must have take more than an hour to make for each... making them so fluid and not damn static is just showing how briliant job he did...

seriously, these different angle changes etc is just awesome.

 

[Jaret]

It's disappointing that Jaret and supertoinkz have such few votes. And I expected much more votes for DVO.

Don't worry... We'll get more votes eventually... (at least hope so)

I loved Supertoinkz's entry a lot, but still 1st place for me was Hunalexnl (Which is going to win, I suppose), the 2nd would be Just_Spectating, LOVE THOSE Emoticons! And the 3rd would be Supertoinkz...

At least he will get py's vote

DVO got pyritie's vote.

 

[Deolrin]

Jaret, you can't assume who's going to win, most of the points will be given by the judges, not the poll.

Voidwalkers are very clear and expressive, and I didn't vote for DVO because i didn't understand half of his emoticons... what is Hurr hurr / Troll face and DAT ASS? I like Haosis smile though

DVO's emoticons all(most) represent internet memes(with the clear exception of Haosis Face which represents our own little meme here around the Hive ).

The dragon one doesn't represent anything but a dragon's face drawing.

Chrome's icons include an 'angry' dragon and a 'thumbs up' dragon, and according to the names of the emoticons(although I didn't see that very clearly) a smile and an 'all wrong'(???) emoticon; it's like saying our Infernal Thumbs Up emoticon doesn't represent anything.

 

[Dromlexer]

My vote should be to Mr. Goblin, but 67Chrome's thumbs up is nice so I can't vote for Mr. Goblins cuz his funny emoticons.
I also vote only for creativeness. =P

 

[Jaret]

Debode, I just wrote down my top3 from these entries. The ones I luv'd the most.

 

[Deolrin]

(Which is going to win, I suppose)

Talking about this.

 

[VectorxMan]

tough choise

I was torn between Goblins, Voidwalkers, and Dragons. In the end GL to the underdog who won my vote-Voidwalkers.

 

[zipeater1990]

The choice is so hard. All of the submissions are great!

 

[Just_Spectating]

i probably should have went with an easier creep to use

 

[Jaret]

i probably should have went with an easier creep to use

Well, the same goes with me... I probably should have went with a more cartoony stile... But well, whatever now.

 

[kola]

yeah, looks like people like more the Cartoony Emoticons.

 

[Jaret]

yeah, looks like people like more the Cartoony Emoticons.

Yea... But well, whatever. I wanted hq to do, so i did.

 

[Lich Prince]

Wow, hunalexnl's submission is owning this poll Big Time.

 

[Krl70]

Well, his emoticons had uber quality and animations
