ENTER the 'ARCHER'S BEST' Avatar Contest!

ChristopherPike · October 28 2009, 11:46 PM

Congratulations to Mach1 and er.... me, as the runner up from the last contest.

The theme there was Foreshadowing and he went with the Vulcan/Human relationships of Enterprise/Star Trek (2009). While I predictably went for conflict and the Romulan War.

Would y'all be OK with me letting ChristopherPike start the new contest? I've been really busy these days, and the ideas for the next contest are just not coming to me right now.

ETA: suggested theme:

Archer's best ... scenes where you just absolutely LOVED the captain (or at least liked him a lot).

So here's this week's theme then, as provided by JINX.

Archer's Best

Any moments from Enterprise involving its Captain that liked and would make for a great avatar. That can be anything involving Archer as the centre of attention. In the Captain's chair. Fighting Shran in a 'duel to the death'. Even making that Gazelle speech! Probably loads of others that escape my sleepy brain at the moment...

All the usual contest rules apply, no more than 140x140 pixels, or 70KB in size. Closing date in around week, or sooner if everybody gets an entry in...

Jinx, sorry for the delay. I wasn't sure whether you wanted to set this up or me. Are you still okay with sorting out the poll thread later on?

Might be a good idea to pin this at the top and unpin the old voting one.

I'll reuse this...

I figure this must've been that picture Trip was taking right at the start of Rogue Planet. The one being sent to an artist, so they could paint a portrait. Maybe it's still hanging on wall somewhere at Starfleet Command, with all the other famous Captains - Garth, Pike, Kirk, Sulu...

Be glad to handle the poll, if you want me to.

My entry is way too obvious:

First person to use NX-01's transporter. Not at all happy about it.

(Seriously, I love this shot.)

One of my favorite Enterprise scenes!

Helping to lay the foundations of the UFP. Possibly Archers finest moment.

"North Star" Archer.

What, you didn't know that when he wasn't busy getting pissed at alien species for his own cultural ignorance, he was a badass Jedi Knight?
