Nice idea, but your picture 720x540 is somehow much bigger than original 720x500 . I'm wondering what have you done to increase original size?
Anyway do not change it. Keep it like that.
Honestly I do not know. :D I tried this first time today. :D

EDIT by Renovatio: I've uploaded your pic but you should check how I done it so you can upload it alone next time. (it is useful to know if you are hanging out on forums)

This picture is not in full size, there is an option in Mozilla to go right click on the picture and to use View Image so it will be only then displayed in full size - at least is like that for me, or you have to download it and then to upload as attachment.
Really dont know cuz i download your photo and didnt resize at all after make-up i just upg and c/p

When I do psc, I always start with google reverse image search for a bigger size, almost everytime you can find much bigger version, with much better quality of the same picture, and before posting the final work, resize it to the original :) Maybe he did the same.

For example in this case, I would use this one to edit:

Please stick to original size 720x500 and don't use pictures from internet.
Yes, my bad, I ducked up smth during the borders I wanted to try out some new things :D Will reproduce the picture from the original and reupload
Sry :)

Edit: FIXED. I will make some changes with the border later, It's not perfectly what I wanted to do :D
Edit2: Ok now this is exactly what I wanted. And it's 720*500 even tho it looks a tiny bit smaller because of my new experimental border idea. :P Hope you like it. Cheers

when this competition stop to be anonymous? i think this will be much. more fair if we send it to heads after they collect all works then they publish it(shorter deadlines).  I think this will be much more fair for new members and members who dont have high rate here

well its been always like that honestly, whats gonna stop people pm friend to tell which they pic is anyway~?

u sent via pm ur work to gfx staff, they open voting thread, u pm text chat w/e ur friends or others that this particular number of work is yours...

It isnt happening that way, trust me. Most of the competitions are won with a big difference of points. The last one, for example, won by Lagi with 7 pts, the 2nd place had 3.5 pts, and Lagi doesnt needs friends to vote for him. We can change the way of gathering the works if you guys rlly want this.

I would suggest to shorten time given. Both for making and voting. Takes too long.

Ok Efko, if you can't work like that but then cut that time for making pic's. We can make 3 work's in one week and vote for it secound week three new works and on and on. I think it will be much faster for all of as. If you dont time to make 1st you will make 2nd or 3rd but if some1 dont have time at all in one week im really sorry for him. Mod's just dont misunderstand me(this is not attack on your personality)

Guys, it's for fun, and if you put in some effort than you can have the joy of improving yourself as well. :) A possible winning is just icying on the cake. Don't take it too serious. I would do psc even if we wouldn't get awards. If majority of active gfx guys wants it to be via private messages I'm fine with it, but imo it would be just an overcomplication of a simple and fun event.

Btw we have nice and interesting works again, gj. Psc quality is so high nowdays, I'm happy to see it :) Keep it up

Ok, there can be done 1 thing. About Showcase http://dota.eurobattle.net/la/forum/index.php?action=forum#c16 , I can open new Child board with name Fun Contests and there anyone will be able to open unofficial PSC, SOTW or some new game with specific rules. GFX Staff will only lock topics when its needed and rules won't be defined in that child board, it will apply only forum rules. Anyway winners won't get any award there.
I'm in!
