So here is the next challenge for the Sammy Summer Viewing. ^_^

Here are some rules:

Everyone can have one entry, but you can change it until the deadline, if you feel unsatisfied with it.

Entries must be banners! And the must represent the current episode chosen to watch in the Summer Viewing section.

The banners standard size must be 600x200 pixels.

Texts are allowed.

At the deadline we will close the thread and shortly after we will have the voting thread up.

The entries in the voting thread will be anonym, so people can decide without beeing influenced.

The theme of this challenge is the episode Hell House, so the banner must represent that episode.

The deadline is 04.08.2009, next Tuesday.

Have fun! ^_^

I think I am extending this, seeing as no one posted an entry yet and I am busy too. :unsure:

EDIT: Forgot to add the new deadline is Friday.

I've been SOOOO busy! But, on the plus side, I love my new house! It needs some painting, which is fine because I always paint a new place, and some TLC in some places, but it has such potential!

But anyway, the inlaws are leaving today, so I will try and whip a banner out if everyone else will too!

Hun, I'd go ahead and declare yours the winner as I am not sure when I can get to capping and such. I will SOOO try and do the next one, I've just been painting in my spare time. I'm so sorry I didn't get to enter.

Guys, I'm SO sorry, but at the moment I am so NOT in the mood to do anything for SN, I'm losing my interest in that series and I'm losing it fast.. =( Every new spoiler I hear takes away some part of what little I still love about it, I don't even want to watch the old seasons anymore and that used to cheer me up like nothing else could. I know this is not the right place for it, just wanted to let you know that I won't be doing banners for a while but I'll stick around to vote! :)

Sorry to hear the Mikiya! :grouphug

You know it was the same reason I went spoiler free this year. Not wanting to read the spoilers and upsetting myself further. That and the mayhem in the spoiler topics and EDGs making the Sam spoiler thread at Sn.tv unpleasant.

Anywho I leave this open today still just in case, will close it tomorrow and open the new challenge.

Sammycat blending is not hard, you can use the lasso tool or the eraser. Using the gradient tool also helps with blending. But put a layer mask on one of the pics you want to blend, if you blend two (layers/apply layer mask). If more I would say work on two at once.

I agree with Tammi and Sammycat, Fandrea - your banner is excellent.

This is my current feelings on Spoilers: I have always been a fairly fanatical spoilerphobe - didn't read interviews until the specific issues addressed were resolved and rarely watched previews until this year. I only stumbled into some spoilers in prior years (and several this year) because they were in "Thread titles" or in someone's reply in an otherwise spoilerfree thread.

But this year I'm severely torn. Part of of me wants to literally dive headfirst into the S5 spoilers - because I was so disappointed in how both Sam and Dean's arc played out, but mostly Sam's (Less Sam is a good thing :angry: ) that I think "Can it possibly get any worse for Sam's characterization?" and part of me is listening to Jess and Mikaya who express so much unhappiness with the spoilers so far and I don't want to be "unhappy" an sooner than I may be.

So far I haven't gone "dark side" :lol: :fire . But when my next Supernatural magazine comes in later next month I'm not going to ask my typical "are there any spoilers for future episodes?" If there are I 'm not going to say anything unless I'm asked but Tammi probably knows a lot more than me already because she read the SG and EK interview and that's probably going to be revealed in the next issue anyway.

What I have been doing is reading the S4 spoilers and speculations thread on sftcol(ar) for the last few weeks and I'm nearly the end of the most recent spoilers. The "good thing" about not reading spoilers is I didn't go through all the worry about Bobby dying; the "bad thing"" is that a few very interesting spoilers (or foilers) never came "true" - Sam did not play Chess with death to win a soul and "Samael" never tempted Sam and Dean in the finale.

I seriously don't know what to do yet - but so far I'm essentially "sf" this season if you take away most of the blunders of others.

I think I need an intervention :) - because I'm in a weak, who cares about our Sammy but Sam fans? mood at the moment - and at this moment my soul :angel: goes to the highest bidder :unsure: .
