Earlier in the week I had submitted an entry for the Evil John Chow contest being held over at The Details.
Much to my amazement, I just received an email from Nick informing me that I had been selected as the winner of the contest! As I bask in the glory of my victory, I wanted to get a quick post out here before heading out to spend the day with family and to take a moment to thank Nick for running a fun contest.
If this victory can teach you one thing it would be to never doubt your own talents and always give your best effort. I guess that is two things, but you get my point. By no means do I consider myself to be graphically talented but I spent a little bit of time and had fun with the project. In the end, it scored me $10 and some link-love from Nick.
Keep a close eye on Nick’s site as he will be announcing his next contest soon. Good luck to everyone in the next contest and thanks again Nick.

Congratulation, Derek! So sad I didn’t won this contest. Anyway your creation is look more evil than mine one.
Wooo Hooo!!!
That is incredible photoshop work. Congrats!
awesome! don’t forget to enter john chow’s new contest for a Zune. you never know! 😉
John really needs to give me and Carl (of k-rad.hk) credit one of these days for basically creating his whole evil persona. No one on the internet would know he’s clubbed baby pandas with rocks if it weren’t for us.
Lol, thanks everyone for the kind words. It was fun to tinker around for awhile to see what I could come up with for this contest.
I’ve entered the Zune contest, I just made the post from my finance blog instead of here. My wife wants a Zune so winning that contest would be fantastic.
Well done, I guess!! I sweated over my computer for hours trying to better your effort, but to no avail. Good luck with the Zune deal.
Grats Derek!
Thanks Ed and Leo!
Congrats! Nice pic
