Guess no one got what I was thinking...OK:

- Muffin shown = chocolate

:D (It WAS going to be "A Little Devil in All of Us", but I didn't get to change it in time)

Biting into Fall

I'm not sure if that made sense. I wanted to incorporate the squirrel and the fall image all at the same time.

Laughing in My Nutty Wonderland
I don't really like this one. It works, but it just doesn't... click for me. I don't know how to describe it. I like the use of the word 'nutty' though. Yay puns. :)

.:Compact Disk:.
Fall into Orange
Another pun! Though you may or may not have realized it. Besides the pun factor, this one doesn't work that well. There really isn't that much orange in the picture, and even if there were it wouldn't be the main point of the set.

.:Requiem:.
Delicious Autumn
Liking it. Delicious is a great word for this subtext, and I like how you described the setting instead of the obvious choice, which is the squirrel or nut.

Ammer
Shades of Fall
I like this one. Like Requiem, you went beyond the squirrel and looked at the things behind it. When I look at the technical aspects of this set, I don't even notice the squirrel- what I see is the millions of hues of colors there are in it. I like how you commented on that.

Anoohilator
That wonderful time of year again...
It's alright. Technically, Christmas or Winter is usually what "wonderful time of year" describes when used, but this brings some creativity into it, I think. But this to me really only describes fall. The difference between yours and Ammer's/Requiem's and the reason I like theirs better is that yours just describes fall. Theirs goes deeper into fall, and describes it more. I know that didn't make sense at all, and I'm really sorry- but next time try something more.. descriptive?

dargonz
Rodents by the dozens bringing in their country cousins
This sounds like a song lyric to me. I googled it, and found no matches, however, so I'll let it slide. If it is infact not a song, it's still not a great subtext. The sig to me speaks fall elegance, and you put it down as what I find hoe-down esque. And it doesn't make much sense because there aren't a dozen rodents, there's one.

Divine
In fall I go a-nibble nibble

...Really dislike this one. It doesn't fit with the signature at all, and despite that, it sounds like something I would find in a book for three year olds. =/ I don't mean to sound mean, but next time try for a more... mature approach?

Khristian
*Fade in* When You're A Squirrel....*Fade out**Fade in* Go Nuts!*Fade out*
Gotta love that wordplay. The fading would get on my nerves, but otherwise I like it. Good job, Khristian, keep it up.

matterbug
Biting into Fall
Ooh, I love this one. I don't know how to describe what I like, because I like it all. So just keep up the good work, and don't shoot me for not being as helpful as I should be.

pattypus
Feeling slightly nutty
It's cliche, but it works. Like a lot of you this round, I like how you can take an element of the sig, completely change the meaning, and still make it fit- like the nut, for example.

Stephanie
Fall is all around us
I don't really like this one. It reminds me of Anoohilators because it really describes nothing else in the signature except fall itself. It doesn't describe the colors, like Ammer's, or what I'm assuming is the nut the squirrel is eating like Requiem's. Sure, fall is all around us, but tell me about fall. Talk about a specific feature you notice about how fall is pictured in the set. :)

the_dog_god
Just a squirrel with a keyboard...
I don't like this one. You had so many opportunities to describe the squirrel or the nut or the setting or whatever you wanted to, and you chose to describe Amarise. That's good in some plain sets, but in this paticular one, I don't think it works because there are so many things to describe. Usually, in my opinion, only describe the person if there's nothing else you can describe.

VeraX
Feeling A Little Squirrelly
It's okay. There are a million words you could have substituted for the words you did use, though, such as "Sensationally Squirrelly" or something.


Divine, Stephanie, Dargonz, Anoohilator.

Ehs. Seems like a playful signature to me. Who would go around with a squirrel signature saying something serious like "Fall is the most beautiful of seasons" or something like that? Squirrels are to me, a playful and fun creature, and obviously I thought that a young, fun subtext would fit.

I was actually a little disappointed with this round. I know it's a difficult image to match, but I didn't think any of them really 'hit the mark', as it were. I suppose, though, it's harder for me to judge this time. Since I'm the one who made the set, I had in mind certain ways I wanted the image to be interpreted, so it's more difficult for me to like something that may not match what I had in mind. However, I will do my absolute best to see this as a blank slate, rather than just being something that I wanted it to be. :)

_jade_em_-Laughing in My Nutty Wonderland

While I do see this as having the potential to be a humorous sig, I don't think it's quite that funny. The squirrel, to me, is cute, but it's not doing anything that suggests 'laughter' to me.

.:Compact Disk:.-Fall into Orange

I see that you're trying to say that it's a Fall image, but there's more to the picture than just orange. If it were a bunch of leaves alone, I think this would be great, but the squirrel is such a large part of the image that I just don't think it can be ignored.

.:Requiem:.-Delicious Autumn

It's not what I had in mind, but it is a good match for the set. You mention that the squirrel is eating a nut, and you were also the only person to say Autumn instead of Fall.

Ammer-Shades of Fall

As with CD's, it's a good subtext but it misses the squirrel entirely. I do like the fact that you work in the idea that there's more than one color, though.

Anoohilator-That wonderful time of year again...

You mention Fall without actually saying 'Fall', which is good. And I suppose that the sig could also refer to the fact that squirrels gather nuts in the Fall, too. I'd rather have a subtext that actually mentioned the squirrel, but this could be interpreted as doing so.

dargonz-Rodents by the dozens bringing in their country cousins

I like the flow and rhyme of it, but I have kind of a problem with what the words say. There's only one squirrel, and he's not actually going anywhere at the moment. I think it's a great subtext, I just don't think it relates to the image.

Divine-In fall I go a-nibble nibble
That's because I am a squirrel!

It's a cute idea, and the cuteness of the phrase matches the cuteness of the squirrel, but since it's the same amount of syllables it bothers me that it doesn't rhyme. :P My other problem, is that this sig doesn't really have much room for writing, and I think the length of the subtext would make it difficult to fit in the space provided.

Khristian-*Fade in* When You're A Squirrel....*Fade out**Fade in* Go Nuts!*Fade out*

As with Jade's, I don't think the image is quite humorous enough to match your subtext. But I like that you made the squirrel eating a nut the focal point of your subtext.

matterbug-Biting into Fall

I didn't like this one at first, but the more I think about it the better I like it. It's short, the words flow nicely, and it works in both the squirrel and the season. Well done. :)

pattypus-Feeling slightly nutty

I actually liked your first subtext better. I think that this matches the slightly-funny potential of the sig, but I would have liked 'Just a little nutty,' or 'A little bit nutty' more.

Stephanie-Fall is all around us

I think this is borderline. It says the image is of fall, which is true, but it doesn't actually say anything about the image itself. It doesn't talk about the leaves, the squirrel, the nut, ect. I think something more specific to the image would have been better.

the_dog_god-Just a squirrel with a keyboard...

Hee hee. I adore squirrels, and the idea of associating me with a squirrel tickles me. :) I like that you tied the image in with the image's user, but in doing so it draws away from the fact that it's a Fall image. I think it's good, but it almost puts too much attention on the user, rather than the image.

VeraX-Feeling A Little Squirrelly

I like this one. It talks about the squirrel and the user at the same time, and it's mildly funny, in fitting with the mood of the image.

My votes go to _jade_em_, dargonz, Divine, and Khristian

_jade_em_ - Laughing in My Nutty Wonderland
Ehh, I dont like this one very much. It doesn't look like the squirrel is laughing. I also dont like the wonderland part, it makes everything sound very tacky.

.:Compact Disk:. - Fall into Orange
I like this one, though orange isn't a main theme in the signature, I dont think it matters that much. On the other hand, I can imagine something falling into a pile of leaves.

.:Requiem:. - Delicious Autumn
This works, but it sounds wierd somehow. It works I mean, it fits the signature very well. It sounds a bit wierd to me, maybe it's just me. =\

Ammer - Shades of Fall
I think it would be better, if you had said 'Shades of Autumn'. Shades of Fall sounds very... bad when you say it out loud. It works though, it fits the signature well.

Anoohilator - That wonderful time of year again...
I agree with Dawn. The wonderful time of year usually refers to Christmas. In my books anyways. 'Wonderful', to me, doesn't fit as well in this subtext than 'Magical'. Maybe that's just me, but I think 'That magical time of year again' sounds nicer.

dargonz - Rodents by the dozens bringing in their country cousins
This is cute, I think a fade might be well suited here. Too bad there aren't other squirrels in the signature.

Divine - In fall I go a-nibble nibble
That's because I am a squirrel!

While there is plenty space for this subtext to be carried out, and sure the signature is cute. But nibble doesn't rhyme with squirrel. And the whole thing sounds like a bad nursery rhyme to me.

Khristian - *Fade in* When You're A Squirrel....*Fade out**Fade in* Go Nuts!*Fade out*
I like this one, I can totally imagine this on the signature. I can also imagine the word 'Nuts' being bold or in another font or very big or something. It has a good appeal to it.

matterbug - Biting into Fall
I like the concept, but this isn't as good as it could've been. Perhaps Munching into fall, or gnawing on fall. Biting just sounds too boring. I think that Munching is a much better word to substitute.

pattypus - Feeling slightly nutty
Whoo, cliche! I'm surprised that so few people would go with 'nutty'. This also has a certain appeal towards it. It's nice.

Stephanie - Fall is all around us
Ehh. This strikes me as boring and un-interesting. Its not very descriptive, and its not very cute. It doesn't fit.

the_dog_god - Just a squirrel with a keyboard...
I like that you're describing Amarise, but... Err. It's very hard to describe. I like it and dislike it at the same time, I just feel that there's something wrong with it, yet I can pinpoint what.

VeraX - Feeling A Little Squirrelly
The whole wording of this sounds a bit awkward. Squirrelly is good, but you could've done it better than just say, 'Feeling a little' before it.

There's a lot of space. The whole signature's right bottom part is empty. And if you're referring to it's length horizontally, some of them are longer than mine.

Nibble rhymes with squirrel, well at least the last parts :P. And nursery rhymes don't have to be good; or else they'd be too serious and boring.

Ok, looks like I'm out. It doesn't really matter anymore, though. Byeee everyone.

Yeah, but you have to understand I'm viewing this in a certain way. If I were to put in a subtext, it would only cover the blank, black-ish space, and wouldn't touch the leaves at all. With that little space for me, it would make a rather small font.
