Battle of the Books (Siggie Competition)
 
This is my very first competition.

http://i836.photobucket.com/albums/z...eCompetion.jpg




I'm normally not the person to say that they love books and they read them all the time but I love very few books and every once in a long while I will find intrest in them so I made this graphic competition for some books that seem really intresting to me.

Each round their will be a new book or book series in the competition. If they are based off of movies you can use the pictures from the movies and if there are no movies in the books you can use your own pictures that you find from the internet. I suggest using (ie. Photobucket, Deviantart, Tinypic etc..) Try new things, have fun, go wild, be a little weird, and submit up to two signatures inspired by the book . The voters will pick the best graphics out of them all and the winner will pick the next round.



Rules

* Signatures should be no larger than 450px in width and 200px in height.
* Signatures must be under 60kb in size.
* All images should comply by SS rules.
* All images should fit the theme of the challenge.
* You can enter up to two siggies and avvies combos per round.
* No animated graphics, meaning nothing moving.
* Do not show your entries to anyone else until after the round winners have been announced.
* All signatures must be PMed to the me.
* You must PM your entries to the me by Tuesday night at 8:30 pm EST.



You have 3 days to send your entries in, we will post the entries up the next day and you will then have 3/4 days to vote.
Any problems, don't be afraid to PM me

I am looking forward to you showing me what you've got and hope to have many entries into this competition. So come on, give me your best shot!
Who knows, you may be our winner!!

Round 1: Witch and Wizard- James Patterson.
 
Battle of the Books (Siggie Competition) :

Round One: Witch and Wizard.

xhttp://i43.tinypic.com/kc1jqv.gifx


Plot of Witch and Wizard.

Prologue | YOU'RE NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE

Wisty

IT'S OVERWHELMING. A city's worth of angry faces staring at me like I'm a wicked criminal—which, I promise you, I'm not. The stadium is filled to capacity—past capacity. People are standing in the aisles, the stairwells, on the concrete ramparts, and a few extra thousand are camped out on the playing field. There are no football teams here today. They wouldn't be able to get out of the locker-room tunnels if they tried.

This total abomination is being broadcast on TV and the Internet too. All the useless magazines are here, and the useless newspapers. Yep, I see cameramen in elevated roosts at intervals around the stadium.


Please rememeber all the rules.

* Signatures should be no larger than 450px in width and 200px in height.
* Signatures must be under 60kb in size.
* All images should comply by SS rules.
* All images should fit the theme of the challenge.
* You can enter up to two siggies and avvies combos per round.
* No animated graphics, meaning nothing moving.
* Do not show your entries to anyone else until after the round winners have been announced.
* All signatures must be PMed to the me.
* You must PM your entries to the me by Wednesday night at 8:30 pm EST.



Have fun with them everyone. Oh and when you PM me your entries that you made please make sure the subject is "Round One: WW-Your Username"

So it should look like the example below:

Round One: WW-MuggleVamapire
