Those are the winners of the awards. The sigs are almost finshed and you may pick them up here as soon as they are posted. Also, this thread can be used for the winners to thank everyone who voted for them.

For me, I would like to thank everyone who voted for me, even if I didn't win a certain category, it was the thought that counted. Thank you to all who think my writing is good. That keeps me going. And finally, I would be so honored to wave the Forum Dad banner. Thanks, a lot, everyone!

Wow, a big congratulations to everyone here and an huge thanks guys from me! 2 hottest males huh? A tie, I love it lol. I also will be honored to wave my mum banner proudly. Now to figure out how to display or combine multiple banners for some folks today lol. Once again congratulations to all listed above, and good luck to everyone next month! :)

You should make it so the pics (and text) can... what's it called? Oh, yeah, marquee. That way, you could have multiple pics and still stay within the limit.

I would like to thank everyone who voted me for this Oscar-I mean Best Newcomer. I feel special! ;) :D

Lmao...UT and NMN swept the stage away! A hearty congrats to you fellows!
If it was only one thing I ever wanted to get in the awards; I've got it here (though I don't remember getting nominated!): I sincerely thank all of you who found my hard work a good read, and nominated me. I also thank the unexpected nominations in scattered categories that took me quite aback-with nominations like these; who needs to win awards?!
Thanks, you all!!

I'd just like to thank all the little people... Bob, my executive producer. Robert, Paul, and Cindy... Golly, where would I be without you three? Joe Joe my stunt monkey, and of course, you: the viewer.

Seriously though, a hearty thank you to all who voted for me. And to those of you who didn't vote for me for Forum Mum or Hottest Female, a very warm thanks to you as well.

The sig banners are on their way. All that is needed now is a pinch of love, but alas, I am currently 75 miles away from the hard drive containing the banners. That little problem should be fixed by tomorrow though.

You'e welcome TINM.

And thank you to everyone who voted me Hottest Female *tries on the title* hmm...I like it. Love you all.

Oh, my goodness, I've never won anything before. My thanks goes to the people who voted me, my congratulations go to my fellow winners and I want to 'big up' the source of my inspiration: Donkey from Shrek

You don't win an award alone. I could never have learned Java script without the help of my good friend CreeK, who even now updates me on the latest developments. Although my specialties do not lie in XHTML and PhP, I am still much honoured to receive the WebWhi...

:D. Nah, I want to thank all the members who voted for me. I won't let you down, and I'm going to use all of those points to buy myself a pink User Name. Yeah, Baby! :p.

Mr U

:) Great minds think alike, I'm so getting a yellow username when I have the points to do it.

congratulations to all that have won

you have earned it :D

i think i'm gonna buy a glowing user name now

Yeah, congratulations to all winners. Well deserved! :D

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL
I look forward seeing ur new banners...

I believe the points have been payed to the winners, and now it's banner time! Pick up your banners right here - Links are provided under each banner for you to right click and save. If I've messed up on any of the banners or forgot somebody's, feel free to smack me. The banners made by UT are at the end of the list. She'll be adding a couple more once they're finished. Thanks for the help, UT!

EDIT: No, thank you TIMN, for everything. Ok guys, if I've missed anyone just give us a shout. love all, UT.

OMG. Just now I've realised I've won most responsive mod aslo. Bloody hell guys, thank you so much. I'm still trying to soak this all in here lol. Please excuse my fluffyness all. Damn.

Who made those banners, cause they are cool *goes to put hers up*.

Wow...the banners are awesome...don't know how I'm gonna fit mine all in though...maybe I'll run a rotation or something.

Congratulations to all of the winners, and thanks to everyone for voting for everyone.

¿Adonde están mis puntos? ¿Hagan robados? ¡Dámelos ahora! Por favor, señor.

Glad ye like the banners. I made them, save for the last 7 or so, which UT did a fantastic job on!

Allí usted va, DPD mi amigo. 800 puntos dados a usted para su excelencia. ¡Contento usted se gozó!

¡Hijo de puta! ¡Hay muchos puntos que han credidado a mi cuenta! Gracias, señor, de todos los miembros, usted es el mejor. ¡Viva el estaciónamiento!

Yes, um thank you and you're welcome and long live MM I think lol.

cool banners. good work on them :D

Nice... Will there be another MM awards thing? If so, could I help make the banners (if thats the award again)?

All in good time, N-2. You can bet there'll be plenty more of this where that came from .;)

A hearty congratulations to all those who won awards, for obviously, they have shown that they themselves have deserved them.

I thank all those who have voted for me in these prestigious awards. I appreciate all the recognition.

Im going to stop typing now, for I feel a rambling spree coming on, unless you want to hear about how the LOTR is supposed to be making fun of the Mexicans. My friend Chad told me how it works, since he is the one who made the joke. But, that would probably include racism, and we don't need that on the boards. Maybe some other time, like on a messenger or something.

Thank you BSD, and congrats on the graphic award hon.

Thanks Hax and yes N-2 this will be a monthly thing. Oh and no pms jokes about it DPD lol. I know, I left myself open wider than a cam chick then lol. Ok, now we're having a few hosting probs with my site (damn company) so we're going to go through today and either Joe or myself will rehost the ones coming up as those lovely red boxes we just love so much.

HEh, is there anyway we are gonna have new awards any time soon, i just got internet....
:(

We only just had them NS mate, but as UT says, it'll be a monthly thing.

Just to re-cap, these awards will be held monthly. As soon as we announce the next awards in a new thread that will be created only by staff, then the past months winners will take down their banners and vote for the next winner. Whether the member wins again in the same cat or in a different cat or not at all. That way it ends confusion and there are no overlapping awards. ;)

*stifled laughter* ....she said monthly thing. "Celebration Bitches!"

*stifled laughter* ....she said monthly thing. "Celebration Bitches!"

LOL. I love consistant personalities. I knew you couldn't help yourself lol.

M-M-M-monthly....<shivers> I smell eventual overwork/breakdown here. :p
Well, it would be quite an interesting thing to see. I don't think there'd be a need to change banner arts, since instant recognition will go a long way to helping pinpoint who got what.

I agree... Sticking with the current designs of the banners is a wise choice... :)

I'm sure as hell not making new banners every month lol. I've had more than enough photoshop for one sitting. Maybe after several more contests. We can aim for monthly contests, but we'll see how it goes.

I think Macleod meant keep the same banners for each month.. Instead of creating no ones all the time.. :)

so when are new contest going to apear ?

it's not august anymore. but september now. so where are the new contests ?

Its not been very long since the last contests, so I suggest we do them at the end of each month...

Well the voting for the last contest started on the 17th of last month, and if they are indeed being held monthly, I'd think that the voting will be held right around the same time of the month. From your tone, it appears to be your time of the month. Just settle down, the next vote will take place soon enough. Personally, I'd go with bi-monthly or quarterly on these things because then the novelty won't wear off quite as quickly.

Concurrance all around, well at least for the two of us, DPD. A bimonthly or quarterly event will also make it more special and keep the spark in it.

Plus, I think it would be nice for the banner-creators to know that their banners are used more than just 2 or 3 weeks, if I may be so bold to speak for them :).

Mr U

Keep your pants on - The awards haven't even been over for two weeks yet. HU, you may NOT be so bold to speak for me. With that aside, I think it would be nice for us banner-creators to know that our banners are used more than just 2 or 3 weeks.

Bahaha, I crack myself up.

Actually, I rather like the quarterly thing!
And to re-state my point clearly: I meant to keep the banners for as long as we can. After many months and awards, they should create instant recognition!

Sorry guys, there I go bloody assuming again lol. I guess I've got this monthly thing stuck in my head for some reason, and DPD, it if is indeed to be a true monthly cycle, then that would be every 28 days. Anyway, I'm easy as to however it goes. Bi-monthly sounds good, then so does Bi-quarterly........mmmmmm.

Then may I suggest Bi-Monarterly.... The fusion of Bi-Monthly and Bi-Quarterly.... lol :D

No. That would make no sense whatsoever. Just no.

Just stick with monthly, it'll keep things moving around and people looking forward to an event each month. It might also keep bringing more noobies each month.
It also seems to be the best for TINM and the Admins etc.

P.S. A late congrat's to all the winners, a real late one.

Actually, I'm privvy to bi-monthly. I think that's how we'll do it. Bi-monthly. So that's settled. Next awards will be in October.

Sounds good mate. Not too long, but not too short.

Huh? Why would monthly be best for me? Anyway, bi-monthly's good.

lol so when are the new contests coming ?

I think that's how we'll do it. Bi-monthly. So that's settled. Next awards will be in October.

Apparently next month, as my open eyes would tell me.

Blimey, are the sig images hosted on my photobucket account coming up for any of you? I have an inkling I've used all me bandwidth.

with all the picture's hosted by photobucket i see here on MM are not working.

Yeah PB decided to crash yesterday sometime, half the world was experiencing problems.

What does PC or PB stand for? And why were they expecting so many problems to happen yesterday or today?

Your right. I'm sorry for all the stupid posts guy's. It is just I was feeling very horrible yesterday. And as I can see by my posts I posted some very stupid comments. Please forgive me. *blushes*
