But I do feel they're just "randomly" selected graphics, without any attention to the theme or feel of a particular song. Decision's not up to me though :J

I'd have to say the same thing.

[popsicle_3000]

[Netjet!]

I'll put the 5 you picked into judging because you pointed them out psycho.

Alrighty everyone, as it has passed 7PM EST officially, the contest is now closed!

Expect the final results to be posted some time in the next few days.

Uh.... Which tokens, or token are they going for? None of 'em have the skill or normal sign.

Since they don't have the skill sign, I'm going to put them for regular tokens. You're right that they don't have the FFR guy but they're being judged anywho.

[Xenorosth]

Fair enough. I think me and like... one other person actually put the logo on it. :P

These were all created back in 2007. I do believe that there were others, but unfortunately I couldn't find any other files and all backups are currently not recoverable on a crashed drive.

Also in respond to your statement, yes, these are pretty much random graphics and there was no specific song in mind as at the time there were no specific songs to create tokens for or even any further need for more tokens. Personally, I think these would be better if they were cleaned up a bit and had one of the foreground characters added, but without the time nor the ability to do so I figure it would be better to post than just letting them sit collecting more dust.

There are probably a few which could pass without the added details, and then a few which I liked the most, which I added at the top as my submissions, without any real song in choice for any of them. Honestly, I haven't the slightest idea if any of them would be suitable for any of these songs, and hopefully someone could take this work an update to be more appropriate for one of the songs. I have no problem with anyone using any of these designs.

Okay.

Aha no need to worry sir!

To let everyone know, the top two images for each song will be put to a public vote (one thread will have a big poll with multi-vote ability), to decide the best ones.

Why not 3? How will we know third place?

[Netjet!]

The top 3 are picked by the judges, but only the top 2 will go to public vote. We'll announce the 3rd place winners when the public poll is posted

HYPE. Really anxious to see the results.

Kirlian Shores 1 - 6/10
Kirlian Shores 2 - 8/10
MLP Melody - Both tokens get a 9/10
S - 4/10
TGWP - 10/10
The Earth Blue Up - 9/10
World Ends Yama Xanadu - 8/10
Zephei's White Walls Pt.2 Token gets a 10/10.

Token 4: for file The earth blew up v2

Token 7: for file The Games We Played. Something that actually has the guy on it.

S - 6/10 - This one actually doesn't seem too appealing to me, and I don't understand the appeal of squiggly lines for some reason. I don't know, it just seems like someone's taking an image of blurred straight lines (if ever you could find one on the internet) and applying a wave filter to it. Just doesn't work that well for me. That said, I do think this could have worked better if it was a different song.

MLP Melody - 8/10 - Bro shizzle my Twilight Sparkles. And before anyone asks me this question, I feel that putting any picture of a real-life horse would just be . I'll admit that while I would have automatically rejected that one, I at least would have gotten some sort of lulz out of it. It's something that you would really enjoy because of how awful it is. This is not awful. Nor is it a masterpiece of tokenism. It's actually fairly decent.

World Ends Yama Xanadu - 7/10 - Hey, it's that guy. That must mean this is a token song. The nebula seems to give an eerie feeling to this one. It's as if the end of the world is imminent, or maybe I'm just thinking too hard about this. I like how the FFR guy stands out perfectly in this one. He's clearly recognizable and I don't see a lot of faults here.

The Earth Blew Up - 3/10 - I don't know what to say about this one. Unlike your comparatively decent Yama Xanadu token, a static burning flame doesn't seem to connect with the theme of a worldwide apocalypse, solely influenced by one Belgian man and his Noisecore track. I don't see a lot of good things coming from this one, and it's just too bland for me. Especially the fact that it's easily mistaken for a cheap gradient if you blur your eyes enough.

TGWP - 6/10 - All the various colors in this one make the guy a little hard to see; he's still visible, but I can't make him out as easily as I can with some of the other tokens. Tetris is the main theme I'm getting from this token; it's a group But my biggest gripe with this token is that Tetris, while covered in this song, is just one video game. I think that the SSB logo that Spitfire did with his token seems to fit the theme of "a bunch of video game songs mashed into one" a lot better. I guess it would only be kind to say "Nice try". So I will. Nice try.

PsYcHoZeRoSk8eR: EDIT: Okay, I just looked at your post again. All of those tokens look pretty good IMO, and that's just me imagining them with the hand on there. I'm going to give the tokens you submitted a 6/10 each, just to be safe.
