ENTER! Misc. Avatar Contest: I'm in the Mood for Love...

Locutus of Bored · February 6 2012, 05:59 PM

With Valentine's Day coming up on Tuesday the 14th, I thought it would be a good idea to have an avatar contest with a love theme.

Be it lovers young and old, families who love each other, cute pictures of children or animals kissing, hating Valentine's Day, tolerance for the way others express their love, unrequited love, etc. I'm sure everyone can find some inspiration here.

The usual avatar contest rules apply: No media images, nothing that violates the board rules, and it has to be 150x150 pixels and 140 kilobytes or smaller.

I'll keep the contest running until Friday evening or Saturday morning, and then have the voting thread up soon after that.

Good luck, everyone!

Here's my entry, a tale of forbidden love:

Seems like animals are the way to go. But what makes this one significant

is, not only is it two different species, but the chimp is actually smiling. There is actually love in this picture.

^ Why in an alternate universe? Because it is drawn?

The entries so far are fantastic!
