Ok kids it's your turn to post your opinions on this week.

In originals, I love 6th place.
I wish I had seen it last week.
But I hate 7th place.
Why does stuff like that keep winning?
I've seen slight variations of that avatar a million times.

Original
1 - Pretty to look at.
2 - Um, cute.
3 - Someone put those hideous pants to good use?
Thumbs up. Nice hinting colors.
4 - Nice theme, but it seems like...something else should be there.
5 - Not truely sure...
To give it credit, it does remind me of an old painting done on felt.
6 - Nice simplcity.
7 - Reminds me other Guardian/Angel/Heaven Warrior avatars.
So there isn't much I can say about it.
8 - Another nice simple avatar.
I am quite surprised it placed.
It's not loud, but it's not boring.
9 - Seems unbalanced to me and bland.
Perhaps it's the choice to use the skeleton, that bothers me
10 - I am quite surprised this won.
Out of all the Lolita avatar I have seen for weeks...how does such a bland one place?
The top half is cute though.
Cosplay
1 - Not much to say, it is as accurate as you can get.
2 - Another suprising win.
Not seeing a second place type of thing here, but it is amusing.
3 - It is a cute Midna, and at least different from the others I saw.
4 - Clever idea, hasn't been done, and definitely deserved to place.
5 - I liked this avatar, nice to see it win.
6 - I found it clever, a lot of people don't do many "Scene" based cosplay.
7 - Another suprising win, it isn't bad, and it does look like Becky.
I would have liked to have seen some prop use though.
8 - I don't have much to say on this, except that I too saw this on Tektek.
The person who entered in the Arena, didn't even bother to add anything new.
9 - I saw this in the Arena, but didnt't vote.
Though I do like it...
It is rather creepy.
10 - Hmm nice cosplay...
Since I have seen her before, it is sort of hard to come up with more words.
Prop use is good.

Originals:
1 - It's very pretty to look at I'll give it that.
But there's just so many avatars like this that it kind of loses it's appeal to me.
2 - I'm glad someone finally executed this idea and won.
That star head was calling for this theme, so although obvious, it seems rather original to me (Although, I haven't been keeping up with the arena lately).
Had the creator used the starry background from silent night it would have been perfect.
3 - I wish this placed first.
It's the only avatar in the top ten for the originals that truly pops out.
The texture, the matching and flow throughout this avatar is excellent.
4 - It fits its theme, but the avatar itself doesn't do much for me.
Kind of wish there was more of a background to depict the 'winter' aspect of it more.
5 - This one doesn't appeal to me at all.
I don't get a 'mysterious' feeling from it.
6 - I loved the idea of this avatar and the general area the creator pursued.
However, the execution was somewhat lacking.
Especially near the feet where purple was greatly needed.
Granted there aren't many purple items that would suit the bottom.
I'd also like to note that her hair didn't suit the outfit.
A different colour (say white) would have been an improvement.
7 - Another avatar that doesn't appeal to me because of the lack of originality for a theme and execution of that theme.
8 - Theme-wise this seems all right.
However, even I noticed that this was an attempt to hide matching behind a theme/story.
Matching-wise, it doesn't really match at all sweatdrop .
Also her upper half is more crowded than her lower half.
Making this avatar seem unbalanced and more unappealing.
9 - The name certainly suits the avatar.
Not saying it's horrible, but the avatar does literally look like a girl with a lot of garbage on.
It's an all right avatar, definitely better then some of the other top tenners.
I'm fine with its placing.
10 - I don't get "sweet" from this.
I see "sad" lolita because of the frown.
I'm not really a fan of this avatar either.
The creator could have been more creative in their execution considering that the lolita theme is very easy to create with the new sets.
Also, was the watch really necessary?
It seems out of place.
Cosplays:
1 - I've seen better Poes that have won before this.
The actual outfit seems uncreative.
The only thing that seems accurate are the eyes.
2 - Two items...
Enough said.
3 - At least it's a different version of Midna.
I haven't completed the game as yet, but in terms of accuracy based on picture this seems pretty accurate.
4 - Creative way to do a serenity cosplay I'm not necessarily sure as to why she added bubbles though.
5 - I'm not sure as to what I should base this off of as there is no real reference picture.
It seems to fit the character though.
Good use of those eyes to create a shocked expression.
6 - A rather obvious cosplay with the new evolution of the nano.
But it was a good execution, I especially liked the use of the smoke mc.
7 - I could have sworn her hair was red...
Even in the reference picture it looks red.
But aside from that it seems dead on.
But the cosplay itself is rather simplistic.
8 - As amusing as the face is, that's really the only thing that makes this cosplay stand out.
It's extremely simplistic and relies a lot on the emoticon face.
9 - I think I would have preferred the bloody machete.
But what they have works as well, due to its shape.
10 - I don't really like the hair that was used.
Only the front of the hair seems accurate.
The Character is also overly done.
But I do like the attempt at a background.

While i know i voted a 5 for Cosplay 2, the only ones i could really appreciate were 3, 5, 6 and 7 ...
How did 8th get up there use the black backdrop?
I mean, genius idea but in the end it looks like it does here.

Originals 1, 4, and 10 I've seen done over and over again.
It's much too cliche, yet these guys win.
How?
I recall seeing this one avatar who I thought would certainly be in the top 10.
If anyone saw it, this one was well executed and had a Jurassic Parkish theme to it.
There was a volcano in the background, blood on the ground next to the victim, and the animal as feral as can be.
You did see any sign of the avatar itself and I thought it was perfectly executed.
To see the results like this is highly disappointing to see something so artist and original go to pot because of over-rated cliched themes by winners like 1, 4, and 10.

Miss Lady Rat I did this for you since you were upset that many of the other critique threads are on hiatus."snuggles" Plus it gives a chance to hear everyone's opinion on the winners.
Next we need to bring back the interview with the winners thread.

Nothing in the originals wowed me, and I never go to the cosplay arena any more.
X_x
Seriously, no.
2 in the original?
Wut?
Independance Day is probably my favourite avi this week.
3nodding By a long way.

Original
1. I think it's pretty, but this type of abstract imagery seems very reminiscent of many heaven related avi's.
What I do like is that she seemed to use bright colours to represent the night.
2.
It was very unexpected to see that item next to the black moon.
This person managed to use a very cute item, and connected it with the an item that I always considered very dark.
I'm very pleased with this avi.
3.
He some how managed too make all that red look like blood stains to me.
And I love that he used black, blue, and white since those colours could all symbolize death one way or another, but yet he avoided being totally cliche by using more blue than black.
Probably the best avi all week.
4.
Right now, the avi doesn't really look like it belongs to the overall image, and I kind of want to remove it.
It feels like it's unrelated to winter rose.
5.
Maybe a lighter blue would be better to use as the background in order to bring more attention to the phoenix, but overall, I think it's a creative use of the urn.
6.
I like the she did try to make the princess into this overly pretty creature, and I like the humor used in something usually seen as very serious.
7.
I kind of got tired of gold being used to represent heavenly creatures a long time ago.
8.
Interesting concept, and all that brown could be seen as a type of camouflage.
Pretty cute looking ram either way.
9.
I thought this was a pretty cool avi.
I feel dirty and very uneased just by looking at it, which is really good considering that this is supposed to represent a girl in the garbage.
I would of avoided using white, gold, and silver items since these are supposed to dirty items, or maybe spread smaller portions of it through out the avi, but I do think this is pretty good.
10.
I'm not very familiar with lolita fashion, but too me, this looks more like Disney.
I think she should of avoided using that dress and that castle, or maybe just not using them together.
Thanks for making this thread.
