This was such a hyped up event..... AND IT WAS WORTH EVERY BIT OF THE HYPE!! The skins are fabulous. Trying them out was lots of fun. I must have gone through a zillion desktops in the past few weeks. I have to admit that I wouldn't have picked the winners that were picked, but I'm so new at this, and I don't have the discerning "eye" that you old timers have. Having said that, though, I went back to load up the winners, and yeah, I think I get it. :-) Congrats to all the winners. And congrats to everyone who contributed. You made for a great event. Errrr...... so when is the next one? :)

Go Skinplant! Nice work indeed, and as Paul Blisset sez, us noobs need something to set the bar for us, so we can aim that bit higher. -p

This is one fantastic event! And the quality of the skins is unbelievable high. Without an event like this we could have waited months for such quality skins to appear. And its not over yet :)
