Celtic Knot Contest

Hosted by [CelticDragon]


Voting is over! Congratulations to everyone and thank you all for participating!
1st Place: [mburk]
2nd Place: [May-lea]
3rd Place: [Spanakopida]

I'll leave the link to the poll in case anyone wants to see the exact results. <poll:12840>

Rules:

1)There can be other objects, but the focus of the picture should be a celtic knot. If you're not sure about your picture, post it in your house and message me to come see if it's okay. If you post a picture that doesn't fit this rule, I'll message you about it and ask you to crop it. I'm pretty lenient, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
2)No nudity
3)No cursing
4)Must completely be your original work.
5)No more than three entries per person.
6)No changing entries after the deadline.
7)Advertising the contest in your house is okay, saying you're in it is okay, but don't ask people to vote for you.

Violators will be notified. If no action is taken three days after I message you or the deadline, whichever comes first, the picture/person (whichever applies) will be removed from the contest. Don't think entering a picture within three days of the deadline and not logging on in time to read it will exclude you. Feel free to re-post it if you fix it.(This only applies to violations of rules 1-3.)


Voting:

Voting will be done by poll. Contestants, please don't vote for yourselves. Voters, please don't vote for your friends if you don't think their's is the best. Be fair. If I find out that anyone has done this, that person will be disqualified.

Voters please try not to be biased for or against any religious symbols the knots may be associated with. Yes, I mean this for both the pentagram and the cross- along with any others that may be entered.

If an entrant posts more than one picture and more than one places in the top three, the entrant will be given the highest badge they earned and the other(s) will be given to the next entrant down.

If an entry contains something other than a celtic knot, don't judge it on the other something. Judge the knot.


Prize:

I've made badges for first, second, and third place.


Here's a badge you can post for entering.

2004-01-31 [Anazalie]: Im working on a special project for my graphic design course,about celtic mythology and music inspired by celtic mythology. If you know some bands who do music directly inspired by celtic myths or legends , please let me know :) Im also desperatly searching for Llewellyn's song ``Rhiannon`` lyrics (from the Celtic Legend CD) If anyonw knows them, again please let me know :) Thanks.

2004-01-31 [Raentor]: one band that does alot of stuff inspired by celtic mythos and art is a band called Solas and Lorenna McKennit also does alot of celtic stuff

2004-01-31 [Anazalie]: I already Know Loreena ... She's a great artist :) I'll search about Solas. Thanks for answering!

2004-01-31 [May-lea]: Tri-Yann, Dan ar braz. Both those groups are inspired by celts and the celtic culture. Sometimes they sing in 'Breton', a language related to welsh and gaelic, celtic languages.

2004-01-31 [Raentor]: yeah also simon and garfunkel did scarbourough fair which is inspired by a celtic song originaly and i can't remember the name of the guy but about 35 or 40 yrs ago some researcher went around to pubs in the british isles and talked to alot of the older folks there who still remembered some of the old songs passed down through the generations and there are some really cool old story and legend songs on those CD's i'll have to rumage around in my CD colection to find the box

2004-01-31 [Falx]: You might want to try Seven Nations. Also some of Enya and Clannad are good celtic stuff. We have a local band that does celtic music. If they have a CD, I'd be glad to rip it for you

2004-01-31 [Lady Edana-Arianrhod Rós]: I wish the old Celtic Guild website was up for the TORC guild, we had a page on music and musicians, but I can ask them and see if they come up with any others

2004-02-01 [Anazalie]: Thanks for the names May-Lea , I'll check out more about them :) And thanks again Raentor for all the info :P

2004-02-01 [Anazalie]: Arafael : that would be so sweet of you ! :)

2004-02-01 [Anazalie]: Lady Edana - Arianrhod Ros : Oh that would help me a lot :) If they do, please let me know ;)

2004-02-01 [CelticDragon]: Yeah, Solas is awesome! ^_^ They have a song inspired by Celtic mythology called 'Black Annis'. It's about Morrigan. Although if you look on Yahoo Launchcast, they have it listed as 'Black Angus. >.< There's a band I haven't heard before, but [Finnguala] is crazy about them- Omnia. They do a song called "Morrigan'.

2004-02-01 [Finnguala]: OMNIAAAAAH!! Probably because they're Dutch :D *bounces around* OMNIA! OMNIA! OMNIA!

2004-02-01 [Finnguala]: And they're not that famous, you know... :/ They should be!

2004-02-01 [Raentor]: Black Annis is one depressing ass song so is the one call Last Leviathan it almost made me cry

2004-02-01 [CelticDragon]: I haven't heard that one. Georgia Lee is depressing too. But they're both so pretty that you don't care how depressing they are, you just listen to them anyway. ^_^

2004-02-01 [Raentor]: I like Georgia Lee and the one they did about coal miners is really really good Heck they are just a good band all around :P

2004-02-01 [CelticDragon]: Which one is about the coal miners? I've only ever heard the songs from Edge of Silence but I'm already addicted. ^_^

2004-02-01 [Raentor]: ooo it's off the hour before dawn CD better than edge of silence in my opinion

2004-02-02 [Anazalie]: I cant wait to listen to these song you are all so enthousiastly talking about ;)

2004-02-02 [Anazalie]: And a lot of worth-recognition bands are not famous, they're like hidden treasures :)

2004-02-02 [Raentor]: mmhmm
