I can't use my entry for this week in my actual signature until after voting ends, right?

Once voting is over though you're free to use your signature however you like.

I'll be posting Week 3 very soon.

Week 3 - PINK

That's right! PINK! I don't think this color is used often enough in sigs. People tend to think of pink as a feminine color, and while there may be some truth to that, pink can also enhance the visual aspect of your image. Bright, fluorescent colors bring a lot of light and possible contrast that you may not get otherwise.
This week's theme doesn't require the entire signature to be pink, or for the main focus of the sig to be pink, just so long as the color pink is visible and somewhat attention-grabbing. Good luck!

UniverseZero has never entered signature into the contest. Anybody who cares to look through jackass's image thread they'd notice that he made that signature, not UZ.

What, is "gay" politically incorrect or something?

Considering the theme, it seemed offensive in context.
Sorry to disappoint you. :/

Week 4 - Carnival/Circus

This is probably going to produce some of the most odd signatures that SOTW will have ever seen, but I think it's going to be an interesting week. When a carnival or circus comes to town you know that you are going to see some things that seem almost paranormal or weird. Then again, it could also be an intriguing adventure through a fantasy village filled with delights beyond your imagination, one filled with acrobatics and feats that look superhuman. Whatever you decide to do this week, try to make it funky, enjoyable and overall make us want to keep looking at your image more and more the longer we stare!

I'm slowly creeping up on you, Yanni.

You have had a couple advantages though.

1. The points you received from 3/4
2. I don't vote in the voting threads.

So you'll always be a vote ahead of me assuming you vote for your own sig!

Week 5 - Architecture

I love old buildings and the way in which buildings are constructed. My stepmom is an architect and although I never really understood the whole procedure, I love the finished product of a really beautiful building. Whether you choose modern architecture, ancient architecture or something between, images for this week should highlight the design of spectacular building. Good luck!

Oooh, this was so awesome. The first time I entered SOTW I placed 3rd! I guess I had a bit of luck too, because of the persons who didn't submit any :D


And I already have the stock in my mind - as in, I know the house I want.

Week 6 - Children's Books

This week we'll take our attention off the architecture of buildings and focus on the artwork of children's books. The entire genre of children's books is such a diverse and wonderfully imaginative field. Doubtless you've all had your favourite books as a little kid, so why not bring that out into your signature this week? As always I look forward to your submissions and hope you have a great time creating something that you feel attached to from when you were a child. Good luck!

Rule 11 has been updated to include a "no offensive materials" rule and Rule 12 is what used to be Rule 11.
