Retroplay, that banner looks awesome.

Nice but SuperFroc ?

fgh · 30 May 2012, 12:43

I have to say - I think this is very good! Simple yet does the trick! Good luck! BTW - would be nice if you made a high resolution windows wallpaper!

Just FYI, I told TCD on IRC to cancel my contribution.

I have absolutely no need for C64 or Amiga Forever, better give them prizes to folks who'd use them.
But thanks for 1st place anyway.

The competition inspired me to spruce up the header on my website with an Elfmania theme.

They are all excellent - I have to say I agree that Retroplay's was a very worthy winner!

fgh · 21 June 2012, 23:43

Thanks guys, and well done Retroplay - worthy winner indeed!

Happy to make a superfrog wallpaper as requested

Didn't make the color shading in a high enough resolution though..

Thanks for this! This has nicely made my desktop more appealing! Well done for being runner up

fgh · 18 July 2012, 01:41

Thanks

Btw: Did anyone ever hear from them?
I was never contacted, although I did submit my entry through their site..

DH · 18 July 2012, 02:54

Hmm.

Not a word at all. Wonder if something went pear shaped with the prizes that Amiga Forever were donating. Also CIA's rules page has disappeared too :s

So it looks like all our efforts have gone to waste

Shame, was looking forward to Amiga Forever too

Kitty · 22 July 2012, 20:49

Mike from Cloanto has contacted us by email and I have sent a reply email, I think it's gonna be ok, I'll keep you informed.

DH · 23 July 2012, 16:22

Aye! They certainly destroyed their reputation.

Don't worry Kitty, I'm sure we can live without prizes
