Announcing the Midnight Sun Resurrection Can Photoshop winner
Actually, the contest had winners. It's a tie!
Believe it or not, "It's a Can" (entry No. 3), by Benjamin Fry, and "Twilight Resurrection" (entry No. 6), by the husband-and-wife team of Alexander D. Mitchell IV and Jenny Heidewald each got 24 votes. ...
I had to spend hours going through each comment by hand, deleting votes cast twice by the same IP address under different names. Thanks for playing fair, everybody. All in all, I ended up cutting about seven or eight fake votes.

Weak. Should have been 6 in a landslide.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I can assure you that my wife's family cast two separate votes from separate computers on the same house's DSL account..... Not that it's worth arguing about........ or is it?

I just want to thank those innovators at microsoft paint for providing an inexpensive alternative to photoshop. and to everyone who voted. I personally liked the aqua teen beer force.

Awesome, thanks to everyone who voted, and thank you, Sam! Congrats to Benjamin as well. :)
I had fun with the challenge of making the can and tower work together. I am flattered by the kind comments, maybe I should go into ad work? :) (Also, for the record I have a legal copy of Photoshop Elements.)
Re: voting: One of my folks didn't realise that the other had already cast a vote, and then, not being used to the delay in posting, thought they had something wrong and submitted again. Oops!
