Not sure how many people were aware of the contest Valve had, but the winners were announced on the blog yesterday, and they are suitably bullsh**. I really can't believe the first place entry. Supposedly, 25 runners up will get copies of the game, personally I entered, I thought my entry was pretty decent, but I haven't heard a thing. Go Valve!

Edit: Yes, thanks for the late rating, the results were posted yesterday, I'm so utterly behind the times.
your just pissed cause you didn't win.

What an entirely unexpected and well thought out reply.
I didn't expect to win, but I would have liked to at least lose to a deserving entry. So yes, you are correct, I am frustrated that I lost to a lazy, boring photoshop.
I thought the photoshop'd version was great and deserving of winning a LE 360.
a truly awesome pic doesnt recquire photoshop. Just like my sucky pic XD
The second and fourth ones were great. [I]Maybe[/I] the third one, too.
But Jesus fuck, that first one is HORRIBLE. And the first one was the overall winner!

And for those who are too lazy to check the link, here's the FIRST PLACE winner.

First. Place. [I]REALLY?[/I] That's quite possibly the worst Shop I've ever had the displeasure of [I]seeing.[/I]

I'm glad at least someone agrees with me.
My guess would be they never announce the 25 'runners up,' and never post the runner up entries either.
Left for dead indeed.
Yeah Valve is so evil those bastards, yeah I bet there are no runners up those motherfuckers yeah

what'r you talking about. I think thats great!
what was your entry?
[QUOTE=FoxMeister;18425057]what was your entry?[/QUOTE]
I'll post it here if/when valve ever gets around to announcing the other 'runner up' entries.
Don't bitch and not show your own, i agree with you that that should never have won, but show your own.

I fully plan to, but I'd like to at least see if I qualified for a 'runner up' (in which case, I would hope valve will be posting mine anyway) before I post mine here.

Why.
Someone else might steal it from him.
Valve might see him acting like a bitch and disqualify him.

I didn't enter the contest and I agree, that shop is crap.

you could probably do that in paint for fuck sake
Its good in all but a non photoshopped picture should have one.
Meh, I already know that no matter what I post, a handful of people here are going to flame away and tell me how awful it is, etc, so eff it, heres mine. As I already stated, I don't think I should have won by any means, but with 25 runners up, I figured I'd at least make THAT. By the way, the winning entry doesn't even meet the rules set out in the contest:
"Take a funny, interesting, scary or otherwise unique photograph of you or a friend in front of one of L4D2’s outdoor media placements (billboards, bus ads, etc.)"
Or... photoshop an entirely different billboard into a L4D one, don't include yourself or a friend in the photo (other than completely by photoshopping), and still win.
