with only 1 entry, you should extend the deadline.

On another note..this was fun.

I guess most people are preoccupied with the summer festival events. I'm not sure whether I should extend it though. This theme was a lot more abstract than the others, so maybe that's why less people entered? Its up to Lady Emiri, I don't mind either way 3nodding I can always delete the poll, add up new entries and start voting again.

Here's my entry, I got carried away a bit here, and used red and blue instead of black and white xd

Ah, well I say if they're not up to practicing, it's their loss.

They'll just have to wait on the next contest.
I think, it's probably school starting up. Gaia always seems to get a bit slower around that time.

Personally, I think entry 2 is very good. It is a perfect balance even if all you did was change opacity or line color and then flip it in photoshop...

While entry 1 is the most complete looking, it is not a perfect balance as the yin yang represents, Believe me I know what the Yin Yang represents, I've worn one around my neck for the past ten years.

I would have said entry 3 is probably the best, but when I think of the colors, black and white are neutral "complimentary colors" and so when you moved into colors then you should have used red and green rather than red and blue. Green is on the exact opposite side of the color wheel and so you call them complimentary. Likewise, you could have used orange and blue which are also compliments...

Thanks for the critique Solidzane! I did think about using green and red, but blue and red represents the male/female aspect more, at least in Asian countries 3nodding
