1, 3, and 4 are excellent.

I gave it to 4 because Kurama. I'm sorry, but he's a game changer.

[PharaohAtem]

I like them all now which should I vote for.

1.

I love black and white images. They have a certain old time feel to it. And this was perfect. A tiny bit grainy, I imagined it was the result of taking a photo with a pin hole camera and the flower was swaying int he wind. Or maybe the wind was gently rocking the camera.

2.

I don't think those are lilacs. It looks like it could be a kind of tulip or something closely related to one. In any case, I love looking at the flower, and I love the border you gave the image. It wasn't really a compliment to the image but it gave it a nice and a certain degree of sophistication. Sort of like if flowers had feelings and could do all the things people do, this would be the kind of flower you took to a social gala for a Fortune 500 company. The blac border could be the barely there but somehow everywhere black dress.

3.

This wasn't just a flower. But the image was 'pretty'. He looks like he's about to give his girlfriend flowers for Valentine's Day but forgot the chocolates. It made me feel a little warm and fuzzy on the inside.

4.

Yokko Kurama, the fox demon. One of the most attractive anime characters of all time. His rose whip isn't spewing flowers at the moment, but there's a flower int he background. My irisies orgasmed, squeezing the fuck out of my pupil when I saw this. I want to vote for this and I'm not sure if it's because Kurama or something else? Most likely Kurama. You could've put up a picture of Kurama and a pile of putrid dog shit beside him and I would've still felt the same way.

5.

This was just simply adorable. But I didn't like the border. Well I did and I didn't. I don't think it should have been white at the bottom. But it says 'flower child' which made this a tad more memorable than some of the other pictures.

In essence, I don't know who the hell I'm gonna vote for.

I want to vote for 1,2,3,4,5. But that's not allowed. If I have to do process of elimination (an unbiased process), I'd have to eliminate 1 because 2 is slightly more awesomer than 1 because 2 has pretty colored flowers and more specifically, the flowers are one of my favorite colors.
So that brings me to 2,3,4,5. I love Kurama, but I can't vote for 4 just because it's a pretty face. And because 5 is so much cooler than it. As are 2, and 3. So 4 gets the axe.
And then we're down to 2,3,5.
It pains me to give 2 the axe but I love 3 so much more than I love 2. Something about it makes me feel warm and fuzzy. And it has a lot going on it and looks like it had a bit more effort into making this "the one", the perfect you know entry. Bye bye number 2, but just know, you will always have a place in my eye.

So now I'm down to 3 and 5. I'm gonna give it to 3. I loved 5. Number 5 is what happens after sex. Number 3 embodies all the things that happen before sex that make that special moment so unique and longed for.
THREE

[Zen]

Raine, your critiques always make me laugh and then nervously back away from my laptop.

Yes, that is a compliment.

[O-Ren]

I went with three, this was a difficult decision though, a lot of very well done and put together pieces
The simplicity and effects in three were the winning factor for me, though 1 and 5 get a shout out for being magnificent as well

One of these days, I'm going to hit up a print shop, print all my favoritest pictures and have a friend paint a mural of it on the walls of one of my bedrooms. Or hell maybe the living room/basement/whatever area.
Brings back the good ol' days when we used to make porn in chem. Best way to pass four hours. I just wish it wasn't a pain in the ass to get something like that accomplished. On the other hand... I could call in some favors.

Who did image 2,4,5?

[Zen]

It's anonymous. We can't announce who did them until voting ends. =]

[Anni]

2 because of the amazing colours and simplicity. I do like fancy avatar but with a stock like that you don't need to add much, just my opinion.

[Kathren]

im going with 3. i dont know why it just draws me to it. must be the blur.
everyone did a lovely job.

[Nethack]

i had a toss up between 1 and 3, but 3 gmv. its more flowerie if thats even a word. i like the style and the fact that the text is even talking about floers is cool. the colors are cool and the fade into pink? is really cool. all together its a really cool one

[Heartless]

This has finished now right?

[Zen]

Not until April ends, I believe.

Which reminds me, lemme go mass mention people to get their entries in.
