PC's Prettiest Profile Contest! (Spring '11 edition)
 

Hosted by Stand Alone and jigglyppuff8

What is the PC's Prettiest Profile Contest?



Pokecommunity's Prettiest Profile Contest (PC's PPC for short) is a competition in which entrants try to receive the votes of their fellow members by giving their profile a great design. This may include a magnificent color scheme, a good profile picture, and for supporters, a great wallpaper (Youtube videos and avatar/signatures should not be taken into consideration). Winners of both the Non-supporter and Supporter categories will be awarded a "Prettiest Profile Contest Winner" emblem and their profile will be declared as PC's Prettiest.

Announcements & Changes

Addendum #1: If you have won a contest in the past (including when the prize was the"Profile Designer" emblem), you cannot participate again.
Addendum #2: No voting for yourself.


What you're playing for!

Prettiest Profile Contest Winner - This member's profile is the prettiest of the contest bunch!

Yes, you're playing for an emblem.


Rules



☂ All General PC Rules and Other Trivia Rules apply. Having common sense about behavior towards others should be a given.
☂ Previous winners may not enter; however, if you hold a "Profile Designer" emblem and have not been a winner from a previous contest, you are welcome to participate.
☂ To enter, simply post here indicating that you wish to do so. You can change your profile any way you like before the voting period. When the voting period starts, you may not change it in any way.
☂ Please enter during the entry period. No other entries will be allowed.
☂ For participants, voting is mandatory. Stand Alone and I reserve the right to pester you to vote if you have yet to vote when the deadline is near. If you fail to send a vote, you will be disqualified. Refer to the ballot down below for more information.
☂ To vote, send your ballot to Stand Alone via PM. Also, do not bother myself or Stand Alone about the results. Stand Alone will be doing his best to tally up the votes with the highest amount of accuracy so no one will be wronged, so be patient.
☂ You must vote for at least 2 supporters and 2 non-supporters. An optional third vote for both categories is allowed. Should you use the optional vote, however, you must use it for both categories (so no voting for 5 people; you must either vote for 4 or 6 people)

Tara led me here. :V

A Pixy April 18th, 2011 7:39 PM

Joins for the umpteenth time in a row.

curiousnathan April 18th, 2011 7:43 PM

I'll join. But this time I'll actually vote.
Hehe, sorry about that, I was so busy. D:

AshPikastar April 18th, 2011 7:43 PM

It's that time already? I've been meaning to change my profile layout again but I'll join.

Alternative April 18th, 2011 7:48 PM

Fyi, I was waiting for this. I wanna join and hopefully win this time. :)

Rainy Day April 18th, 2011 7:50 PM

I'm in I guess. Sounds okay.

Oryx April 18th, 2011 8:23 PM

I'll enter, why not. Making a nice color scheme is fun :3

champagnepapi April 18th, 2011 8:37 PM

Sign me up, please! I've always wanted to do this :3. Perhaps I can beat Alt with the power of gradients.

Pokemon Trainer Touko April 18th, 2011 9:02 PM

:D May I enter? n__n Please and thank you!! xD

Ho-Oh April 18th, 2011 9:15 PM

Stunning first post jpp ^____^

I should continue to steal your job of rating profiles just before entry time expires. :D Good luck everyone!

Meganium April 18th, 2011 9:29 PM

With the design I have right now, I guess I can enter with it.

I'm in! :)

Aquacorde April 18th, 2011 9:35 PM

After an excruciating half-hour of making a background and then color co-ordinating everything, I suppose I'm ready to join in~

Maraala April 18th, 2011 10:29 PM

Ohey, I"ll join in. I probably won't change my current theme, but whatev >__>

moments. April 18th, 2011 11:08 PM

Might as well join just because I changed my profile not long ago! :D

Good luck everyone!

Regeneration April 19th, 2011 2:06 AM

I'll give this another shot. ;o; Enter me!

*goes to work on his profile*

alisaie April 19th, 2011 3:04 AM

I swear. Every time a PPC comes up there are more joining overnight each time. Needless to say this makes me happy.

/not in charge of it this time so isn't going to edit hurrhurr.

shinysweety April 19th, 2011 8:39 AM

Il join too i will make my profile as pretty as can be ^__^

Shayla1312 April 19th, 2011 9:04 AM

I wana join too im gona start making my profile as pretty as ever!

Oryx April 19th, 2011 9:12 AM

Quick question: You said no avatar/signatures are judged, what about tag lines?

alisaie April 19th, 2011 9:14 AM

Anything that you do to customize your profile (whatever is in the ''customize profile page + profile image. not youtube video). Does that help? or... does it make it more confusing?

Oryx April 19th, 2011 9:15 AM

Tagline isn't under those options so I'm assuming it doesn't count. Which is good because I like mine and don't want to change it. xD;

alisaie April 19th, 2011 10:01 AM

Yeah. You're fine. :] If anyone votes against you because of it, then they have problems. xD;

Binary April 19th, 2011 11:50 AM

I'll join. I've been too lazy this year. :/

chef30 April 19th, 2011 2:33 PM

Hello, I'd like to join as well :D

shinysweety April 19th, 2011 5:07 PM

Just asking when is the time where we vote???

thanks missed it in the first post XD

donavannj April 19th, 2011 5:35 PM

I probably won't enter, but may I suggest putting the timetable for the event in a div of its own in addition to being in the voting one? It's quite well hidden out of sight and it took me a while to find it as well.

jigglyppuff8 April 19th, 2011 6:47 PM

Sure thing. Rules have been moved to another div as well. Double div splitting combo.

vaporeon7 April 19th, 2011 8:26 PM

I shall be entering as well~!

solarowl April 19th, 2011 10:40 PM

Why not try? Sign me up. Like others, I'm too lazy to change mine though. XD

Meganium April 20th, 2011 7:50 AM

Just to make sure, will the profiles be judged by using the vBulletin Default style? Because my current design is viewed better if a user is using the Stand Nexus style.

Yup, every profile has to be viewed on the default. :x

alisaie April 20th, 2011 7:58 AM

What the skin looks like outside of the profile shouldn't matter, but we have it do everyone is viewing under the same conditions, just to be sure it doesn't sway anyone's opinion. You profile should be fine as long as you aren't using any default colors of The Stand Nexus, which is doesn't look like you are.

Charizard★ April 22nd, 2011 4:07 PM

I'm game. Count me in! Let's lose win this! :D

Just a question (I didn't see this on the 1st page) are we allowed to see how many people voted for each profile?

marcc5m April 22nd, 2011 4:10 PM

I would like to enter please :3

Only the winner and two runner-ups for each group. If the contest ends and you're not one of the top three, then you can ask Stand Alone for your results. I'm sure he'll tell you.

ソラ April 22nd, 2011 5:14 PM

Sign me up! I'll try it again.
It shall be fun :D I re-did my profile a few weeks ago :D

Miz en Scène April 23rd, 2011 6:19 PM

The entry period isn't over yet...
I would like to sign up and or join please. ^^

mzmingle April 24th, 2011 1:55 AM

I would like to join please~
sorry if its over...

Aquacorde April 24th, 2011 3:37 PM

Um, I'd just like to notify people that my profile has changed. I know some people like to start examining early, so-o...

Charizard★ April 24th, 2011 7:21 PM

I wanted to say that my profile has been updated/changed. I don't know if saying this is allowed but yea....I changed it.


Well now that the problem with my profile is over, everybody can view my profile right now :D

Meganium April 25th, 2011 10:57 AM

I dedicated all day Friday to fix my profile so it can be viewed better on the vBulletin default. I was able to keep the theme, though. :)

Pokestick, good times. April 25th, 2011 11:27 AM

Gahhh, had I been back one day earlier, I might have entered :P

Oh well. Good luck, and I'll still try to vote.

Netto Azure April 25th, 2011 12:04 PM

Meh, I can't come up with a better profile. LOL

Still I will vote yet again. :D

It's still Monday over here at the time of your post. Can I take this post as an entry request or not?

Same with you, Netto. Is that an entry request or not?

Netto Azure April 25th, 2011 12:19 PM

Yah, I'll go ahead and enter yo. :3

Pokestick, good times. April 26th, 2011 2:27 AM

Nah, I'm not joining, as the little time I had wouldn't be enough for me to attempt something, and I'll probably be changing my profile during the voting period, so I'd just get disqualified xD;

alisaie April 26th, 2011 5:42 AM

Just here to say if people have realized yet that the voting process have begun!

/going to vote this time 'round because she's not hosting and she can!

Bluerang1 April 26th, 2011 9:27 AM

Argh! I missed entering >!< And I just spruced up my profile yesterday ^_^

Now, who to vote for...

Oryx April 26th, 2011 9:32 AM

Just a heads up, the link to PM Stand Alone isn't a link unless I missed something up there. I just searched it but might be a stumbling block because I didn't even know I could search users until just now. XD;

alisaie April 26th, 2011 9:33 AM

NIINII WHY HAVEN'T YOU POSTED HERE. ;__;

I'll go add a link to his profile so you and others can do so without searching for him. xD;

Riku April 26th, 2011 9:48 AM

I sorry Neeeeee. Finals today = dead Niinii. Imma make it up to you though ;3


Hi guys~! Just wanting to pop in and say: let the voting commence~! My PM box is ready for the attack. >3 Good luck to everyone~!

Also, @Char: If you want to know how many votes you got, I will gladly tell you via PM after it's all done and the winners are announced (b'-')b

Okay, I voted. I hope I did it right.

Regeneration April 27th, 2011 4:10 AM

alisaie April 27th, 2011 4:59 AM

Voted! It was difficult choosing between some of them. @[email protected]

Voted a while ago, just didn't post here saying that I voted.

Miz en Scène April 30th, 2011 5:22 PM

I voted a few days ago. I wasn't going to bother posting, but then I thought it would be more courteous.

Riku May 3rd, 2011 8:33 PM

Well, we are officially past the halfway point for voting. There are some participants who've still yet to vote, and there's always time for more, so keep it up guys! Everyone is doing really well and have such lovely profiles. @[email protected] /jealous


Remember though: deadline is next Tuesday, May 10, 12:00 am EST. Good luck everyone!

Alternative May 9th, 2011 9:16 PM

Regeneration May 10th, 2011 9:36 AM

:O
:OOOOO
:OOOOOOO

I WON!

adsfkjl Too bad I've got to sleep. ;; Congratulations, Binary and the rest too! ^.^

Oryx May 10th, 2011 11:08 AM

Congratulations everyone :D Interesting how much closer the race for supporter was vs. non-supporter.

Maraala May 10th, 2011 11:19 AM

Congrats to you, Regeneration and Binary. You two had both very interesting profiles, as well as everyone else~

alisaie May 10th, 2011 1:00 PM

Well Binary, no more PPCs for you! Congrats on your win! You too, Regeneration. :D

I'm... going to let Netto hand out the emblems because I've done so the last few PPCs. Yup. o/

Charizard★ May 10th, 2011 1:12 PM

Congrats to the winners! :D All your profiles look awesome! :D

jigglyppuff8 May 10th, 2011 1:46 PM


I didn't get a chance to properly look at them because :AP Exam and :Final Projects, but now I just took a glance at the winning entries and I have to say I'm impressed.

Binary and Regeneration, you absolutely deserve this. Most stunning profiles I've seen in a while.

To Charizard★ and Alternative, your profiles look equally as stunning. Be proud that it was so close of a race.

To TheSmartOne, your profile is quite nice. It lacks the stun of the three whom preceded you, but it absolutely screams "you".

To ~Ryukaa, Toujours, Rainy Day, I find it oddly coincidental that you all share somewhat similar color schemes. Blue will always be blue, I guess. Either way, great effort. Also, show us what you can do with those supporter privileges next time, ~Ryukaa.

To THAT WONDERFUL PIXY GUY!, orange is underrated and you pulled it off, well, wonderfully.

To Pokemon Trainer Touko and shinysweety... I'm going to be blunt. I'm not particularly sure why you're even up in fifth.

Touko, that checkerboard image wouldn't have been so bad had it not been for the shade of pink, its small size, and that white border around the rest of your profile. Also, any kind of repeat for images that aren't a pattern are almost always a bad idea. As for the pink, it would've probably looked better if it matched the shade of the vector's ears rather than the official artwork's ears. My critiques.

shinysweety, your profile is just amazingly blinding. Bright colors everywhere, oh my god. I count at least two entries that didn't get above 5th that were better than yours. No amount of critique can save this. Scrap and start over.


I honestly don't hope I start any drama (or do I?). Anyway, congrats to all the winners! The gorgeous designs definitely give me hope in this website design-wise considering the recent inactivity of people who I once considered the most artistic on this website.

And so concludes the musical?


Netto Azure May 10th, 2011 3:41 PM

Well everyone I voted for got the top 3 yay~ Except for PIXY but still :U

Anyways due to the awesome winners this time around you get half an emblem you guys STILL get the same emblem but now the list of winners becomes twice as big. :P

Ho-Oh May 10th, 2011 3:45 PM

Netto you know you only give the emblem to first place right? XD

Anyways, congrats Mervyn and Binary. This PPC's results weren't what I expected, but it's good for you two anyway :)

Netto Azure May 10th, 2011 3:51 PM

Yes, I know now tyvm. >:U

JK, I had to check back just to make sure (Unless everyone wants one? xD)

Anyways for those who want to host and count the June (Or July if Tara is doing a PT one) Please PM or VM the respective staff members.

alisaie May 10th, 2011 4:04 PM

When it comes to hosts, I already got two people who VMd me about hosting the next PPC here in OT, and I have someone assisting me for the PT!PPC. However, if it happens that they change their mine between now and the next PPC I'll announce it or something and people can ask then. :]

Also, the PT!PPC will be within the next few weeks, as it was supposed to have been during this month, but considering how the PPCs have been working, both of the PPCs will end up hosting during the time of each season, which does correspond to the 'every three month' they currently run on. ^_^

solarowl May 10th, 2011 6:17 PM

Dang! Didn't even place!
Oh well. XD
Maybe next time.
Congrats to Binary And Regeneration.

Meganium May 10th, 2011 6:37 PM

This was a very good run, and I'm glad I participated in this. Congrats to the winners! :)

Alternative May 10th, 2011 6:44 PM

Second again. what is this i don't even Crongrats Regeneration and Binary for winning the hearts of everyone that voted with your dazzling (yes, I'm using that word) profiles.

Aquacorde May 10th, 2011 6:55 PM

Ooh, fourth! Lovely. ^_^ And I do agree with your critique of my profile, jigglyppuff8.~

Congratulations to the winners~

Binary May 10th, 2011 7:46 PM

SDFLJSDKFJSK

Yay, I came in first. :D;
Thank you everyone, and congratulations, Regeneration and everyone else. All of you had lovely profiles. <3

Whatever, I'll enter it when it comes, anyway. xD;
Congratulations, everyone! Especially Mervy and Binary. : )

Regeneration May 11th, 2011 2:18 AM

Thanks everyone! It was pretty late in the night when I checked the results so I wasn't sure whether it was real or me dreaming. :p

Annnnnnnnd, with this, I'm never going to look at OT ever again.
..
...
Noooo! I was just kidding. :p

AshPikastar May 11th, 2011 2:56 AM
