With just a few hours left before any more entries can be accepted the judges can begin to grade the skins/themes. It has been a great contest and the authors have presented some wonderful work.
I really want to extend my gratitudes to everyone involved and those who participated. And a very special thanks to the judges and sponsors; Ms. X, SleepingDragon, IslandDog, Geyster, and Stardock Corp.
It shows once again that WC kicks @$$
