Cool, but sorry... where's my cover?

Sorry, I forgot I added a 10th row with 2 entries in another post on our voting thread. I just copied the first post. Added them to this total list.

I liked 1-1, 2-2, 5-1, 5-4, 6-4, 7-5, and 8-4 along with the winners.

amir raped :(

Wow ....GTR's is by far the best and most appropriate.

omg...I'd like to thank my mom, my dad, my grandma (hi grandma!) and George Carlin for his lectures on "titties for life".

lol

In a more serious note. I'm quite impressed with some of the stuff that has been submitted, and yet disappointed with some. I wouldn't say I won by a long shot, some of these are actually pretty good.

But one thing is for sure; it'd be much more challenging next time. It seems like most people didn't really take their time with their cover designs.

Congratulations GTR!

Congrats Amir.

I never knew he would do that extreme.

Great gtr congratulation

That's quite a cover.

I always thought photoshop was for photo editing, not creating :P.

Amir's cover was the only one with a prominent police car on it that i noticed. Nick's cover also had a teeny little cop car at the corner lol. Don't know bout the others...Didn't really bother to check:P

Holy crap! That's brilliant! Nice work GTR!

How'd you make it?

That's awesome GTR. That's a legit cover man.

That's some awesome work guys most of you should be proud of yourself :P
I personally didn't have the cojones to enter.

-theo

Freakin awesome GTR.
EA, take note. :)

Awesome work everyone, especially GTR.

Damn GTR, that's a nice cover. And to the others, just very great cover.

Sweet work to all, and GTR's Cover just left me dumb

Holy shit GTR you really put a ton of effort in to yours, congrats.

Congratulations GTR, that's hell of a cover. Like the definitive for NFS:UC, no kidding.

To the others, also congratulations for participating. I felt like doing one but I didn't had the time, neither the motivation.

Wows. Congratulations to all participants and mostly to GTR. Great work man. Knew it was gonna be a hit the first time I saw it :D

Thanks guise. ^^

congralutations GTR you are awesome!

@ GTR:
Really nice cover, congratulations! It really looks professional. ;)

@ all other users that sent in a cover:
You did a nice work, too, there are a lot of pictures that are looking very good.

Nothing to say ... they voted right !!!
NICELY DONE ! Congrats ...

Hey GTR, do you work for EA or something? Because they could use someone like you in the development of NFS XIII. I mean, seriously, this is better than the ones they started showing recently.

P.S. You even followed recent NFS tradition by placing a tuner on the cover;)

Congrats GTR, I knew you were going to win, if I only knew how to work with Photoshop my entry would have been a lot better :(

i have quastion. What it is this number on images "1" "1-1" "4-2", groups or first place ... second place... ?

i have quastion. What it is this number on images "1" "1-1" "4-2", groups or first place ... second place... ?

That's just a sorting.
So the first number is kind of a group and the second number is that image.

It's easier for people to reference to.

-theo

thank you.
Imprezzive nice contest

That's awesome GTR, nice entries as well. Congratulations.

I know I'm late, but I just wanted to say that I'm quite impressed with the overall quality of the entries, especially the winners; I "whoa"-ed out loud when I saw the winning three on the front page.

EA should see these. :yes:

EA should see these. :yes:

they have, trust me.

THEY HAVE?
wat do u mean?

Again, thanks a ton guys.

Oh btw, BleDrajor, Anathema and nitrozocker, you guys did some kick *** work. I'm sure Anathema didn't unleash the fury (which is why I won), but BleDrajor pulled out some nice stuff. That smoke, the heli in the background...Wow dude, just wow. nitrozocker did a good job too, I especially love how you referenced the heli through the reflections on the lambo. I can tell you worked on it pretty hard, seriously.

they have, trust me.
I wish they have, but how do you know?

Did I mention one of their headquarters is less than 30mins away from my apartment? I'm easy to reach, EA! haha :P

AMIR(GTR) is the best... he deffetly should win.. but what about mine.. i hope is not too late..:-" what do you think?:D :}

I see what you did there.
Nice try, not quite.

they have, trust me.
Heh, neat.
I wish we could know what they thought of several of the designs here being better than the 'official' box art (and by better I mean more imaginative, more original).

I'll try to see about getting some feedback.

I know one liked 7-4 with the exception of the main text font.
