Also… Nicole’s definitely features a vag… tribute to penn v diaz?

Why do CP Polls always refuse to work. I have that rare fringe browser called Firefox and these polls always direct me to some strange CP page or don’t do anything. I never see results after voting…

Jimbo Jones consolation prize!…..Olieng P.’s reminds me of indepedence day and I hate Jeff Goldblum, soooooooo tikibot for having to scan his without the boss seeing it

These are all pretty cool but man I wish i knew how to be pro at Photo Shop.

Winning Idea :

Anderson Silva Vs Genki Sudo:

Battle at the Disco

I noticed while viewing that I liked the first one a lot, which probably has to do with it being first. Similarly, the last one might hang with people longer when they go to vote. Also, all the posters I’d already seen before didn’t seem as interesting or compelling as the new ones. Since we’ve previewed some already, I think there impact will be diminished for the casual voter.

Therefore to everyone who was featured previously or in the middle of this huge pack, I am sorry, but I’m voting for the last one because I can’t appreciate real design skills and it’s funny.

The first one is mega epic! but I really like the PauloThiagoSilva Dream one, just like a real Japanese poster

olieng p.

tikibot FTW

some of you guys really have some talent

They are all really good contributions..but I’m an old school Mortal Kombat fan…so I like Olieng’s …and all I can hope for in that fight is for one of the two guys to get a chance to “FINISH HIM!”

These are all absolutely ridiculous, congrats to all of you who made it to the final I’m seriously in awe, Cagepotato should send these to the UFC and get those scrubs who make the UFC’s posters normally outta town

Steve Dub’s “Grumpy Old Men” – Comedic Genius Award

Vincent D’s Strikeforce Nashville – Cooler than the Other Side of the Pillow Award

Strung56 Dragon-Shogun II – That ish is sick. Grand Prize sick.

I can’t pry myself away from my strict regime of squat thrusts, stevia extract supplements, and reverse grip masturbation (my ultimate goal is to have a penis that is shaped precisely like a BMX bicycle grip, you know, for the ladies…) to invest the time to manifest such magnificent monuments of ubiquitous corporate branding. My props to Steve W., who apparently photographed his poster from the window of his time machine.

I want to vote for Ansari It wont let me not gonna spend the time trying over and over , maybe CP can vote for me but thats who I tryed to vote for. they are all good but thats the 1 I liked

Very good!

Snakefinger’s and Nicole.B’s go together IMO.

Great entries! My top five faves (in order):

PauloThiagoSilva
Eric M.
Dooz
Nicole B.
Strung 56

Award for Hilariousness: tikibot

Tikibot is the best, FTW.

Other favorites:
Olieng P
Snakefinger
Nicole B
Vincent D’s Strikeforce Nashville one
Nicolo T

They’re in no particular order, except obviously Tikibot is getting my vote.

Awesome job guys. I think everybody should get something.

wow the new ones that made it are really nice. Good job everyone.
Really tough competition.

Lots of talent on display for sure, but I can’t help but wish for some more funny. Either way, everyone did a great job.

The Liddel/Couture one was great though. The tagline made me laugh so loud my co-workers thought I’d brought a gun to work again.

I’d love to see more contests like this. Even if it’s just a weekly or monthly thing for kicks.

I like Nicole B.’s, good concept and execution, not just flash.

tikibot +1

Nipmoua made the best one by a long shot. Plus, why the fuck did so many machida vs rua posters make it to the finals? And how tikibot was even considered I just don’t know.

Steve W. and PauloThiagoSilva….awesome. But I’m using my vote for Snakefinger. As others have said, the poster’s simplicity is key. The (almost entirely) symmetrical design and cleanliness of it instills a calmness not seen in many MMA posters, yet that is at odds with the tension created by the looming bit of ordnance that lets me know stuff’s gonna blow up and shit.

Love them all, good job guys. But my hat goes off to Ansari. Wonderful idea and concept, great job.

wow tough competition…gj everyone who participated, are we gonna see all the worst entries too?

i like Olieng P a lot, but for me it’s more of a movie poster than a mma poster…dont get me wrong i’d go see that movie in a heartbeat.

Nicolo T. is pretty sweet too, clean, simple with nice blending effects and i like how he used the old japanese drawings.

Nicole B. is really good too but i dont like the font used for the event title, doesnt seem to fit with the rest of the theme.

overall awesome work by everyone.

btw- you can open the pictures in their own page or save them on your desktop for bigger versions.

strung56 and nicoleb in my opinion although strung could use a bit more info as far as date and location. IN ADDITION TO WINNING THE CONTEST, THE CHOSEN POSTER WILL ALSO BE SET AS MY WALLPAPER UNTIL SOMETHING BETTER COMES ALONG. CONGRATULATIONS!

Damn when you guys said epically MS Paint I thought you were serious.

Gotta give it up to tikibot. That one is sweet. Also liked Dooz’s but can’t really let the “Machina” thing slide. Tough call. They were all really good.

snakefinger

also second goes to the guy with the pride gp recreation one.

holy shit!! I am in awe of the Potato Nation’s photoshop skills… far too many good ones makes this a difficult choice – in the end I have to go with Nicole B.

Dooz spelled Machida’s name wrong. That was dumb.

Paulothiagosilva very simple and clean

ansari very nice cohesive peice, my favorite

Nimpmoua also clean and cohesive, would love for it to happen too.

Tanks are cavalry or armor. Just sayin’.

Definatly more contests like this are needed.

But that heavy artillery is bonkers. +200 for him

Thanks Ben, got it to work

I got to give this one to Snakefingers – Simple and Badass

By the way, we should definitely have photoshop contests regularly. Maybe one a quarter? This hints at a great deal of untapped awesome within the Potato Nation.

Some good entries here:

Vincent D’s new entry is better than his first, in my humble opinion. Unfortunately, i dock him points for using tanks to represent heavy artillery. Sorry, ol’ chap.

Strung56 is bold and creative, very dynamic. Wish i read all the kanji. Also, the font seems different for each fight–kinda weird.

Ansari spent a good amount of time on that entry. Very cool mosaic work, nicely done. Nice detail work to make it look like a fully formed poster. Definitely a front-runner for the prize.

Speaking of taking one’s time, holy shit Olieng P.! Obviously a lot of layers in that one, and it looks nice. A little more print at the bottom would have looked more legit, and i would have loved a bit more dragon showing.

And last but not least, PauloThiagoSilva’s masterwork. Epically japanese in it’s simplicity, it has all the potential energy of a Dream event. Understated, beautifully illustrated….i still love it. If you’d told me this was the actual poster from the event, i would have no problem believing it.

Good luck to all.

Sorry, our poll is a little buggy right now, but we’re working on it.  If possible, please try again with a different Internet browser.

How do I vote for Jimbo Jones?

Olieng P., Ansari, & PauloThiagoSilva. I can see any of these three winning.

The small version doesnt do PauloThiagoSilva’s justice.

Snakefingers is simple, but awesome. But im going with Olieng P.
